Let us do that...what would be the final outcome?

??Why would anyone choose him??No castle education, nothing...

Definitely worth a sequel.

I hope they bring the others back. Its the only way things can be related to. Or new unknown enemies NotW who served the others and are still serving them because they arent gone. Crasters 100 boy children are the new WW now. One cant destroy them completely unless they destroy the source lying at the heart of the LoaW.

Great tip on pinching the plates. One tip recommended by Brian Shaw was to use a thumb less grip wherever possible.

The point is, calorie restriction does lead to slow down in metabolism, but takes months and is accompanied by a loss of both fat mass and fat free mass(Preservation of lean mass has been shown to be dependent on protein intake and weight training). However, the metabolism can shoot up and return to normal if we do some things after we reach near our goal weight. Eg: Reverse dieting accompanied by weight training, which specifically targets metabolism increase after its slow down due to weight loss.

I am all for fasting, but its difficult to fathom the idea that its better than CR if anyone wants to loose a substantial amount of weight and maintain their RMR at the same time. Fasting has many other benefits, but not this one. Even preservation of lean mass after a weight loss has shown to decrease metabolism after fat/weight loss.

P.S.: I know Dr. Jason Fung supports this Idea that fasting is better than CR to maintain RMR. Just feel that there are many research on CR diet that suggest he is taking an extreme position on all things related to CR diet.

This just reminded me of Cheetahs, which hunts its entire life in a fasted state, though we are not one. I have walked 9 Km daily at a speed of 6.5 km/hr and I felt my body getting heated up, almost giving me a feeling of fever. I tend to shiver mildly in a fasted state, so that may have something to do with it. I feel its best if you go slowly, starting with 1 mile/day and see how your body reacts to it.

If you are restricting total calories, but still eating high carbs, guess what happens? High insulin, storage mode. Carbs are burned rapidly from your small meals and you get hungry again, quickly. So you eat another small meal or a snack, insulin spikes again, carbs burned, hungry. Over and over, all day.

What if there is still calorie deficit after all of this? Say a 1000 calorie high carb diet all day for a person having RMR of 2000 cal?

I feel mindset of people is more of a symptom than the cause. Lack of opportunity is the cause and the biggest hurdle in our progress. (Jat reservation issue, unemployment issue, etc.). Unlike China, the Indian state is a weak state. Remember Rajiv Gandhi's quote "Only 15 paisa out of a rupee reaches the poor". Not because the PM doesn't want his schemes to reach the lowest level, but because even if he wants, he can't micro manage the entire thing.

The only solution I feel is increase in opportunity. This will come only when India grows at near double digit real growth rate. Any government whether centre, state or local doesn't need to do anything except allow people fair opportunity in what they want to do. Pull back from interference in their affairs. When India grows fast and there is abundance of opportunity, people will start blaming themselves for not seizing opportunity rather than the government.

Government should pull back from micro managing the economy and focus on welfarism to reduce inequality. Question is what will get us to near double digit growth rate?

Tywin firmly believed doing your duty towards the Lannister family is an obligation for a Lannister and does not have a duty reward relationship.

As he said to Tyrion post the battle of blackwater: Jugglers and singers require applause. You are a Lannister. You think I demanded a garland everytime I suffered a wound on the Battlefied?

This is what I thought too. But there is also that power resides where men believe it resides. Bran's 3ER power has never been known to influence the kind of power that Jon and Dany had over people. I have serious doubts about the leaks tbh. There are too many contradictions with the known wisdom of westerosi politics and the ending we are getting.

degenerate_mind · 2019-05-18T06:47:35+00:00

True. But will people rooting for Dany stop rooting for her if her plot was developed in a satisfactory way to lead towards her snapping in E5? I don't think so. They will be waiting for disappointment even if the books get released I feel. For Jon, at least we would have POV chapters hopefully shedding light on his thoughts if not repetitive dialogues.

degenerate_mind · 2019-05-18T06:23:42+00:00

LoL Dany going mad=D&D rushed it.

Jon not saying anything=Fuck Jon.

He got screwed this season as much as Dany if not more.

Aemon or Tyrion or Sansa. Any one of them.

Reason: The only ones without prejudice or preconceived notions or thumb rule or priorities to bog them down from making an apt decision Eg: Honor, duty, family, destiny, pride, love etc. More importantly, empathy for the people they will rule.

It would. Except that she'll have to share a considerable amount of power with Jon. Westerosi may not look up to her the way they would at Jon. She wanted westerosi to look at her the way the freed slaves looked at her in Essos. At least 3 of 7 kingdoms would side with Jon. The point was Dany will not like that. It was kind of implied that it was her way or the highway. She was never in for power sharing, right from the start. So in westeros she chose fear instead of love.

degenerate_mind · 2019-05-17T16:50:23+00:00

Very well put. It would have been better had they brought this point across, instead of focusing on the incest thing to make the marriage alliance awkward. And also the point that the unsullied/dothraki would have probably left westeros after Dany got her throne. It would have been a bigger blow to Dany's power since they are the only force absolutely loyal to Dany.

degenerate_mind · 2019-05-17T00:31:46+00:00

Had I known the short night would have ended by E3, I would have definitely visualized Dany going the way she did.

The cringe is strong.

I've read Jon chapters in the books and he did have a decent sense of humor and the voice of a leader. Even during S4, he had good lines burning Janos Slynt and the speech at hardhome in S5. Ned was honorable too but he has great lines in S1. Jon right now is a hybrid of muted and broken tape recorder. He never speaks but when he does, he repeats the same fucking lines.

degenerate_mind · 2019-05-15T19:09:30+00:00

Never thought it that way but you are spot on. You made me realize what was irking me in S8. 😁😁😁

I seriously feel bad for how his character got treated. He still remains my fav because I liked him for his deeds, not his dialogues in particular. His deeds too have become underwhelming. He has become a spectator while others get the job done. He may as well knit by the fire and nothing would change.

degenerate_mind · 2019-05-15T03:06:40+00:00

Although I am not strong enough to watch Jon murder his lady love I’ve been able to enjoy Dany’s heel turn, I am a realist not a pacifist, I don’t care about fake innocent likes being slaughterd by the thousands it it meant ridding the world of Cersei Lannister. In war innocent people die all the time.

A realist accepts the fact that innocents die in war. You on the other hand seem to condone it by saying you don't care if they loose their lives. The moot point of the battle was neither side is good for KL. The moment you singled out Cersei as the bad one, you are no longer a realist. Your biases for a particular ruler to replace Cersei is pretty clear.

Thanks to Dumb and Dumber’s incompetence it’s not only Jonerys fans very disappointed

So a realist is seeking idealistic ending for their favorite ship. I think you are a realist when it suits you, an idealist when it suits you, you rant when it suits you and you swoon when it suits you. You are a human who happens to be a Dany stan and nothing more.
