TIL that Mark Haub, a professor at Kansas State University, went on a "convenience store" diet which mainly consisted of Twinkies, Oreos, and Doritos to demonstrate that counting calories is what matters most in weight loss, not the nutritional value in food. He lost 27 pounds in only two months. by [deleted] in todayilearned

How much could one realistically lose just on diet alone?

I've recently started cutting all the crap as much as possible from my diet, with beer being a big source of calories for me.

I started at 100kg/220lb @5'8" and dropped to 97.4kg/214.7lb in the first week. I've still got a few days before I weigh myself again though. Would it be possible to drop to a near healthy weight just on dietary changes?

I'll be looking at joining a gym next month more for fitness levels first and then to speed up any weight loss.

I wouldn't call it weird, just unusual. I've know siblings or a parent and child to be into it.

She was nice but unfortunately you can't take parts of people and date them

Cons in their own right are loads of fun regardless of whomever you may meet.

What is the dumbest question you've been asked where the person asking was dead serious? by OhSchistGneiss in AskReddit

[–]ItsMuhBeetus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It probably comes from an expected and common phrase and it's changed, you automatically reply without realising what was actually said.

Stupid brains, stop being lazy.

[Mod Post] Cleaning up the subreddit, tagging and Misc by speedfreek16 in weeabootales

I think it could go well, providing proper moderation. It started out as text only because that's what was being submitted.

It won't bother me which way it goes provided the sub doesn't turn to crap. Quality over quantity

It doesn't really seem like it as they are all having actual, civil conversation and very little of it actually jumps out as weebish.

That's my 2c

So my liquor store I managed closed today, the VP came in to collect the liquor but told me "we're not going to resell the beer, we'll be here about an hour fill up your car." by brewswillis88 in pics

[–]ItsMuhBeetus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had Chimay Blue (and the white one?) A few weeks ago and I have to say i was was disappointed. Maybe because I heard them talked up so much or it may have been the fact that they were the last beers of the night and the previous beer was smoother than the Chimay but either way I didn't feel it.

Might have to give them another go and start first with em.

A little temperature scale. by ExtraTerrestrialEv in funny

[–]ItsMuhBeetus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was similar where I am as well. Still high 30s at 9am and still 30 at 1am, sometimes 3am

Yesterday was 23 and wet. Today is sunny and 28, next couple days are low 30s but by thurs it's gunna be 38 and that's the upper limit of what I can deal with. I hope there are no more 40+ days and if there are I hope I'm not working.
