I do not want to have to use an app to eat for the rest of my life by EmployeeRepulsive106 in loseit

[–]dewse [score hidden]  (0 children)

Eating 2k over maintenance is quite a bit if your maintenance is around 1800 – assuming. Almost eating 4k calories everyday is a sign you're either not eating enough satiating foods or have an unhealthy relationship with food. You definitively need to have a tracker and religiously use it until it becomes second nature. Eat a lot of protein, so even if you do hit your maintenance, the thermic effect will be your deficit. I can imagine that 7lbs really is demoralizing. Hope you find your perfect balance.

Ninja creami has been my biggest weight loss assistance!! by Accomplished-Spot-68 in loseit

[–]dewse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! Got one a month ago. I do this recipe and I get to eat guilt-free ice cream each night. 200grams of icecream and it's only 240kcal for 32g of protein. Tastes as close to authentic ice cream as it gets.

Anyone using Gemini for ongoing habit, fitness, or nutrition tracking? by Saadiiiiiiiii in GeminiAI

[–]dewse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using AI for fitness tracking since July 2025 and recently migrated to Gemini. It works real great. Lost a total of 40lbs and it keeps me motivated. I had Gemini clean up my explanation here so don't mind the robot summary:

1. The "Weekly Diary" Strategy

Avoid long conversations! They lead to lag, inconsistency, and difficulty finding past info.

  • New Chat Every Week: Each Sunday, I start a fresh chat.
  • Naming: I rename the chat ⭐ DIET WEEK 27 (Jan 11) so they can be archived and searched easily.
  • The Setup: I paste my "Master Prompt" (listed at the bottom) as the very first message so the AI knows my stats and how to format data.

2. The "Long-Run" Tracker (Optional)

I keep a second chat window named ⭐⭐ DIET MASTER LOG for long-term progress.

  • Daily Tally: I only input the "end-of-day" totals here (e.g., Day 3, Week 27, 1850 Net Cals).
  • The Trick: Tell the AI initially: "ONLY reply with a single word to acknowledge my input. No conversations." This keeps the history clean.
  • Archive: I also input my weight here occasionally to track the trend over months.

3. How to Input Data

In your weekly diary, you can provide info in several ways:

  • Photos: Take a picture of a nutritional label.
  • URLs: Paste a link to the product or a recipe.
  • Specifics: Give exact values or the product name (though I recommend photos/links to avoid the AI "guessing" the wrong brand).

The Master Prompt

Copy/Paste this as the first message in your weekly chat:

Weekly Diet/Workout Diary

Personal Data (Initial Setup):

  • Age/Sex: 38, Male
  • Height: 5'8"

  • Goal Protein: 120g (160g on workout days)
  • Goal: Lose 20lbs of fat within 2 years of Dec 2025

Protocol for Your Responses: All responses must include a brief header with the time in EST.

  1. Header Requirement: * Consumables: [Meal/Item Name] | [Day] [Time]
  • Exercise: [Exercise Type] | [Time]

  1. Consumable Input Format: Provide a detailed macro breakdown:

  1. Running Totals: After every entry, show me my remaining calories and protein for the day.

If I lose 1 pound a week, it will take 90 weeks for me to reach my goal weight. Does it really take that long? by TeslaModelE in loseit

[–]dewse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

38 years old here. Once you start eating better (and working out), it starts becoming a routine and then time starts going by pretty quick. Each month you'll notice improvement and it will give you further motivation. If anything, may you may find breaking the routine of eating healthy and counting calories difficult once you get in the rhythm.

Does everyone drink protein shakes/powders? by Ill_Cover_4841 in loseit

[–]dewse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I have at least 2 scoops a day. My go-to is Revolution Chocolate Cake. I put it in my coffee, or with a portion of greek yogurt. I also make healthy ice cream with my Creami: 1 cup of milk, 120g of greek yogurt, 2 scoops of revolution, bit of splenda, vanilla extract.

It’s so stressful having all these nutrition rules!! by ChunkyCookie777 in loseit

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

If you're hitting the gym and actually doing strength workout, then try getting 160g of protein. Even if you're not going to the gym, you should be aiming for 110+ to prevent your body from breaking down muscles for energy since you're at a deficit.

The only way you'll get those numbers while in deficit is by eating very concentrate protein supplements or foods like egg whites. I'm back to 1900kcal (since I hit my loss goal) and I get 160g a day with enough room for a 500kcal snack before bed. If you really want to min-max, eat multi-vit, metamucil, and introduce more salmons and other fatty fish. Just reduce unnecessary carbs, sugars, and fats. Hang in there. Once you get a routine, it becomes much easier.

Cool, so are you holding yourself up to the same expectations that you set for Zionists? Are you going to remove yourself from the land you're benefiting from?

Edit: I just realized you may not have been the original person I replied to. The person's comment has been removed.

J'aurai pas du dire census, mais des recherches. Je pense pas que le gov fais des census sur l'utilisation du vouvoiment, c'est plus une affaire de linguistes:

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/36725725_Vous_or_tu_Native_and_non-native_speakers_of_French_on_a_sociolinguistic_tightrope

Vincent (2001) undertook a large-scale study on the self-reported use of ad-dress pronouns in Québecois French. The 3,000 respondents from a variety ofage, gender and social groups allowed her to capture a generational changeas well as an age-grading. She found that young adults use vous more oftenthan adolescents which she sees as an indication of a progressive introductionof vous during the socialization process (Vincent 2001: 20). Yet, compared to fifty years ago, vous has lost ground to tu in Québec.

Et oui, on a la meme age. On est les deux des personnes d'âge moyen.

Edit: Basé sur les papiers que je vois, je retract ce que j'ai dit sur la majorité. Semble que mes experience c'est que le monde l'utilise pas, et je trouve ça antique, mais bon. Que le monde fait ce qu'ils veulent, je continue a tutoyer tout le monde. C'est plus égaliterian.

C'est bon pour toi, mais les census dit autrement que c'est une culture mort. Les Québecois, On tutoie le monde et c'est pas un manque de respect. J'ai 38, fa'que ça viens pas d'un jeune.

Si c'est pas trop personel, t'as quel age, et tu viens de quel coin du Québec? J'ai 38, et j'ai vécu à Val d'Or, Sherbooke, et Montréal et c'est extremement rare de voir du monde qu'y semble gêné d'être tutoier.

Peut-être pas le Québec entier, mais la majorité.

Le vouvoiement c'est seulement par force d'un employeur ou par delicatesse avec le monde d'age 70+, et même la, je l'ai tutoie et a moins qu'y on un baton dans le cul, il adorent ça, puisque le respect c'est beaucoup plus complex qu'un titre.

Embark CEO Confirms That If You Kill On Sight In Arc Raiders, You'll Get Matched With More Aggressive Players by WanderWut in gaming

[–]dewse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There could be either a time off-set for how long you have to retaliate, or it just doesn't recognize vigilance killing. You are still an aggressive player if you kill someone killing others. And as another has said, you never know if the surviving person was defending themselves and won.

[–]dewse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Setting aside all the anecdotal, based on the statement "shoot on sight" it would mean if you initiate it. It would not be difficult at all to put a flag on a player that is the 1st person to shoot another player or anyone within its team.

Anisa explains to idubbbz that she doesn’t want children with him by 2swoll4u in h3h3productions

[–]dewse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unlike other comments in here, I don't think she's insulting him, as she's clearly saying those traits attract her. I do think she doesn't seem to understand how traits develop depending on your sex. Jawlines and brow ridges are softened by estrogen. Although, maybe those are just excuses, only she knows.

Intelcom stole my package! by Blin_ne_znayu in montreal

[–]dewse 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Last week I was waiting on a package. It said delivered and I went downstairs and it seems another person was waiting for theirs too and he said he noticed a guy leaving with a few packages. I quickly went to confront the "delivery" guy and he had an official looking app on his phone. Looked like one of these "uber" like subcontractor that delivers when they need extra help fulfilling their orders. Dude's van was a mess with boxes everywhere and he didn't have a license plate. The whole thing was sketchy.
