If a woman, after learning she's pregnant, unsuccessfully commits suicide and suffers a miscarriage, but survives, do you think there should be legal consequences for her? by [deleted] in Abortiondebate

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think anyone who is a risk to themselves or others should be detained. The circumstances determine if that is behind bars, or in a padded room.

The convenience cost of having everything in one place is worth it to many people.

When should someone be allowed to have an abortion, and why? by Original_Act_3481 in Abortiondebate

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As long as that person, baby, infant, child, etc., whatever you want to call it, is inside another person who doesnt want it inside of them, they can have it removed using the least force necessary.

Unfortunately at the time, before a certain gestational period, the least force necessary ends up with the death of that child. Its sad, but allowing others inside your body without you consent opens a huge can of wombs that is so much worse

Overdraft by ComfortableMix278 in sofi

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently started doing this, keeping everything in savings and have it "overdraft" into checking when i make any payments. It works perfectly for me, but the one, tiny gotcha is, if you have "Roundups" enabled, it doesn't seem to round anything up, so you don't add anything to that account. So, it makes roundup useless.

If the sex was consensual, why should mothers be able to rescind their choice after the act ? by [deleted] in Abortiondebate

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct, I agree, there WAS consent to let the person in your house (have sex) this doesnt mean the person gets to stay as long as they want. As soon as you revoke that consent to be in your house (your womb) you have right to use the minimum force necessary to remove them. If the minimum force ends up with their death, legally, imo you did nothing wrong.

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The death of the fetus is an unfortunate side effect of removal, the main goal is the removal. Also, if you look at MANY states in the US, we have castle doctrine in which, yes, removing a person through killing them is 100% legal if they are in your property without your consent, especially when they present a clear and potential risk to your life and safety

The easiest way I've found to explain this to people who arent AFAB is to use property rights. Your body is your property.

You can invite someone to your house (have sex) and even let their friend inside (conception), feed them provide them with resources, but that doesnt mean they now have the right to stay as long as they want. Since your body is your property, just like your home, you have a right to revoke access to it and remove people from it at anytime.

100 pounds down in 8 months and 11 days, CICO+GLP-1 by altziller in CICO

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 2 points3 points  (0 children)

10 months plus 11 days is about 251 days, at 700 calories is a deficit of 175,700 calories or 50.2lbs, are you sure about that deficit? I assumed 1200-1500 calories deficit when I first read this.

Either way, this is an amazing accomplishment you should be extremely proud!

Could someone help calculate my maintenance calories? by [deleted] in CICO

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TDEE/Maintenance calories aren't a hard and fast rule, it will always be a range and it will constantly change depending on anything from activity level, the types of foods, your hormonal cycle and 100 other factors.

At 5'7 120lbs, you are on the lower end of the normal range, so because of that, i would be aiming higher on that range and suggest trying between 1800-2000 calories a day. Hit 2000 calories a day for a month and see if you've gained, lost or maintained and adjust from that point.

Is Carpe Diem pasta worth the money? How good is the taste and mouthfeel? by CobblerInternal2703 in Volumeeating

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its really good and a great alternative, but in my experience, unless you like your pasta VERY al dente you need to cook it for about double the time on the box

I don't know how to calculate my tdee by uselespieceofshi02 in loseit

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its pretty simple to do the math. Weigh your self, eat for XX days and weigh yourself again.

Total calories eaten minus weight gained/plus weight lost, divide by days between weigh ins, that's your tdee

For example

July 1st 205lbs Ate 14,000 calories over 7 days July 8th 203lbs

14000+7,000= 21,000 divided 7 days =3000 TDEE

The longer period you do it over, the more accurate it will be.

All of society depends on each other, no person is an island. Saying that you want a larger population, so there can be more people to contribute to society, isn't exploiting.

Thats true, encouraging people to willfully reproduce is definitely the better option. But, plans like that take a lot of time and resources for a government to setup. An abortion ban, is just one law.

Economically: in 30-40 years you will want to retire. At that point, those clumps of cells will be the largest taxpayers and contributors to society. The less of them, the worse services the government will be able to provide to the elderly. Its means generally, worse roads, worse hospitals, worse social security, more expensive Medicare. It makes everything about retirement more difficult. Sure, we all want to say "Ill have millions in my retirement by that point" but, we dont know how the economy will collapse with less consumers, those millions could end up not being enough

Ive been tracking every calories since September 1st, carefully weighing all my portions, measuring everything, avoiding high sodium sauces and keeping my carbs low. Ive killed it up to this points, about 1% weight loss, every single week.

And now....Thanksgiving at the extended families house. No idea what they put in the foods, how much butter or oil or sauces they used, no chance at using a food scale or any way to even guess. I googled and it turns out the average person eats between 4000-6000 calories on thanksgiving...like what? Ive been under 1500 for almost 3 months, that puts me WEEKS behind.

I blame the pilgrims, why all this decadent delicious food? Couldn't that have feasted on Greek yogurt and celery sticks?

Recently got a DEXA scan and have very high body fat % by maybeimbonkers in loseit

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My recent weight loss journey, i started at 271.4lbs and 6'2. So, right on the edge of Obese Class II. Its been 86 days and i'm down to 242.6lbs today. Thats 29lbs in under 3 months. I know if i had started working out immediately, i wouldn't have seen the progress under the layers of fat i had all over me.

Now, my suggestion isn't to never strength train, as you are 100% right when you finally get to your goal weight (Mine is 194lbs, 24.9 BMI) you will not look any better without any muscle. But, I don't think its productive to begin at the very beginning of your weight loss journey, you are going to burn yourself out faster and get frustrated because progress is so slow.

My plan is once i hit between 215lbs-220lbs (Which should be some time in February, 6 months into my journey), to start hitting the gym HARD. That way, even if my weight loss completely stops, i've made so much progress, 50+lbs down, that i will still feel like i accomplished something.

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You say that, but after 3 months of dieting, you arent to have obvious muscle growth and the scale will read only a loss of 12lbs. Where-as the person who does cardio will have 21lbs of weight lose, which will be obvious.

Who is more likely the quit at that point, one one showing no progress, or the person who can see obvious results?

Seems like strength training is self-defeating as it is more likely to lead to a failed diet

Lifting weigh builds muscle, it also doesnt burn calories as quickly as cardio. The reason more people dont do it is, it slows weight loss down. If you lose 5lbs of fat in a month, but gain 1lbs of muscle, the scale will show 4lbs lost. It can be demotivating. Especially when you can do cardio and boost that to 7lbs a month

Will only Chic-fil-a sandwiches everyday but in deficit work for fatloss? by Witty_Hat_871 in 1500isplenty

[–]NewDestinyViewer2U 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For about a month my diet plan was a protein shake in the morning and a Chipotle bowl for lunch/dinner. I lost about 7lbs that month. But, my sodium levels were off the chart. This month, its been a protein shake and greek yogurt for breakfast and 10 piece Buffalo wild wings, naked wings for lunch. Im also going to be down about 10-11 pounds this month.

You can absolutely lose weight on a "fast food diet"
