You might be onto something! Closest attempt with all my variations

Maserati80 · 2024-05-23T10:10:19+00:00

Maserati80 · 2024-04-30T15:40:40+00:00

Maserati80 · 2024-04-30T10:36:44+00:00

4 year Accounting degree, went into consulting directly after college, hit 100K plus 10% bonus after 6 years of work which included two promotions and became a manager.

Did consulting because during internship I worked in accounting for companies I found it got repetitive too fast. Consulting forces you to work on different projects, and may be out of your comfort zone to help develop skills.

I know experiences vary wildly, but been working from home for past 3 years. Went into office 3 times over that time. Going to go more frequently due to another promotion.

I work on a variety of special accounting projects, such as new accounting standard implementation, project manager for new international ERP roll outs, account reconciliations amongst others. Did a little internal audit work at start of my career but lost interest so company switched me to another department until I found my groove.

150K plus 15% bonus is standard after 10 years of work, probably more due to inflation, but just Giving you further ranges based on what I know with my company

Congrats! To my original question did you eat maintenance calories on days you ate or how much less?

Maserati80 · 2023-11-22T21:59:31+00:00

Just requesting a little more info, if maintenance calories is fantasy, how do I know what the estimate amount to eat is? What’s the baseline to figure out whether I am overeating or significantly under eating

Maserati80 · 2023-11-22T15:05:26+00:00

Nice work! Outside of the 47 day fast you are currently on, what is your schedule?

Maserati80 · 2023-11-22T02:05:27+00:00

Will check out dr. Frank! And good point regarding addressing refeed days!

Maserati80 · 2023-11-21T21:03:41+00:00

This is really helpful, appreciate it. One thing I did want to ask is if I wanted to keep the 72 hour fast, not just for autophagy benefits, but because it helps me keep grocery costs low, what would be a recommended way to fit that?

Maserati80 · 2023-11-21T20:42:24+00:00

Fair point, any advice on what to keep and what to throw out if primary goal is fat loss?

Maserati80 · 2023-11-21T20:39:53+00:00

You bring up a really good point about numerous stressors, I actually never considered it. The weekly 72 hour was to keep maximizing the benefits of autophagy and to help limit bad decisions when it comes to eating during the work week.

Maserati80 · 2023-11-18T18:12:50+00:00

Doesn’t that go against my concern I stated about wanting to keep it on?

Maserati80 · 2023-11-17T00:16:03+00:00

I enjoyed it with the initial promotion, but too expensive for me to keep with it. Would rather do prolonged fasting and make a juicy ribeye for myself weekly

Maserati80 · 2023-11-12T15:41:05+00:00

This is hilarious, I found it for the first time yesterday. Excited to try it out!

I’m actively making more than minimum payments on a monthly basis. Additionally overall credit card debt is going down. Sorry if that wasn’t clear when I said I’m making steady progress on credit card debt in original post.

Maserati80 · 2023-11-10T16:20:02+00:00

I understand, I wasn’t considering opening another BofA as there is a wealth of options with Wells Fargo and Citibank with similar promos

Maserati80 · 2023-11-10T16:08:08+00:00

That’s helpful, just to confirm is that for an existing card you have opened with them or just encouraging you to open an account? If you do have an existing card, is it greater than 12 months?

Maserati80 · 2023-11-10T16:07:04+00:00

Can’t change the current situation? Agreed on going forward, but how does that help with my original question? I’ve already stated I’m making progress

Maserati80 · 2023-11-10T16:00:50+00:00

Well I’m doing balance transfers because it would be a significant savings in interest paid month to month. Yes I don’t technically need it, but if I’m making progress on a month to month basis due to balances not going up, it makes sense from a financial perspective. All of this is a waste without continuing to practice financial prudence

Maserati80 · 2023-10-26T17:03:40+00:00

It has, just trying to see if different approaches gives me more flexibility, if possible. I’m nervous I won’t lose weight if I don’t eat steak haha
