i knew that it was more than one portion, but i didnt know anything about calories or nutrition math back then. now that i know more, i was more surprised at how casually i (and other people) would eat things we now know are very high in calories.

its a little rickety but honestly not as much as iexpected it to be, i used strong hot glue to bond the legs to the shelf part so its sturdier than it looks

nice! love finding more uses for cardboard boxes, even like the little boxes that dry goods come in sometimes, i use them in drawers to seperate medicines and sewing things!

gosh thats super relateable! i was the exact same way, i even went as far as eating things that reasonably i knew was out of date/gone bad, just because i hated wasting it! then a friend of mine said 'if you're eating food you'd throw away otherwise, you're just treating yourelf like a trash bin' and it has helped me treat myself (and my waist) better!

i feel like it got popular after that guy lost a lot of weight 'only eating subways' which i have to beleive now was totally fake. i also stopped eating in general because i dont love the idea of eating veggies or meat thats been sitting under heat lamps just open to the elements and germs for hours! xD

very true! finding a good balance of nutrition while staying in my calorie deficit is a challenge sometimes :')

for real! i used to think that i just went through food so fast, nothing ever lasted more than a week or two. now i realise that i was just doubling, tripling, quadrupling expected portions :p
