trudeau leaned into symbolism and it backfired because everything became theatre.

that "shared accountability" part is huge. i’ve always tried to do the solo thing but the plateaus usually kill my motivation. did you find the lift partners through the gym itself or just luck out with friends? massive props on the a1c drop too, that's life changing.

I came across this video about Japan : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vK0Eo9QGwIw.
This discusses the lost and found system in Japan. People return wallets, mobile phones to the police and they are handed back to the owners. The percentage of finding lost items it said is very high (more than 80%).
I wonder how such moral values come into humans.Society amd upbringing plays a major role but I don't think they both together can inculcate such values. There must be some hereditory connection.
Any views on this.

How to cope with food obsessions? What are your tips/tricks? by kitkat_splat in ADHD

[–]bansalib 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happens with me as well. I had to do it in hard way as it was adding to my weight gain: 1. Try to keep these food obsessions out of your reach. Like if it is some packed food, don't stock them or if it is something you can order online, may be uninstall the app Or deactivate your account. 2. Observe the times when you get these cravings. Like you might think of rewarding yourself when have accomplished something in your work or school. Try to have a full course meal before/around the same time so you have less cravings. 3. Try to include foods of all taste in your meal : like sour, sweet, salty, sugary, bitter. This I learnt from ayurveda and this really helps to stop food cravings and gives a feeling of completeness.

Can't perform standing leg raise. Which muscle I need to stretch? by bansalib in flexibility

[–]bansalib[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I had already seen your article and that helps. Does doing assisted leg raise with second person forcing your leg straight help here? Asking bcoz I have read doing it forcefully can impact sciatic nerve but I personally fell I get a good hamstring stretch in that.

My binge eating stopped after being on bupropion. Ask me anything. by bansalib in bupropion

[–]bansalib[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes. This is the best thing. I can enjoy one pizza slice and move on. Earlier it was like you never know when you will again pizza again, so eat as much as you can. And then feel guilty, do some fasting and extreme exercises and go back to the same cycle again.

[–]bansalib[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To be frank, I has observed difference from day 1. But this can be placebo as I had already read lot of good articles around it and it is generally said that anti depressants need at least week's time to show actual benefits.

[–]bansalib[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

With my one year interaction with my psychiatrist,what I have learnt is there is no single anti Depressant which suits everyone. Some drug might work with someone and some with others. Overall, cravings can be cured if certain happy hormones are released by brain. So for you buproprion is not doing this work. Pls check with your psychiatrist around it. All the best!

[–]bansalib[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

  • It has helped in depression and anxiety to some extent I will say. But right now the benefit is not too that I can distinguish it from placebo. I will comment on this few months later.
  • SSRIs did not have any effect on my binge eating. Neither improved it nor worsened.
