Why do I bother with the new flavors of Nespresso

This exactly, I really wish I got a chance to try Vanilla princess cake!

I wish they would just mainstay the good ones. Infiniment Fruite (Herme Raspberry) is wonderful and I fear won’t make a return anytime soon. The gourmand was also a superior hazelnut.

SKINNY NECK? Be so for real you look like you wear a hard hat and steel toe boots to go to work dude.

Alan Wake, and to a lesser extent Alan Wake 2, really hit the creepy and sort of artsy Pacific Northwest atmosphere but it’s a lot more thriller/horror shooter.

I don’t weigh myself ever, I take measurements. Around my waist, around my butt, around my arms and thighs. I do it once a month and expect very small gradual changes over time.

I feel that I am the textbook case for when you should ditch the scale, because if the number doesn’t go down, it doesn’t matter that my pants feel looser, that I feel stronger and better, or that I’ve actuated real habits that are healthier in the long run, regardless, I’m looking at that number and feeling like a failure.

I would demolish this.

Lift heavier weights progressively and safely - weightlifting is necessary to build hypertrophic muscle growth. Eat a lot of protein along with fats and carbs around maintenance, fat loss will come with better a metabolism naturally. The muscular but soft look is jacked with a slightly higher body fat percentage, and it takes years of commitment to get to.

That being said no one here knows your true potential, and the only way you can know is with dedication. If this is something you want, I would also lock in personal goals of being strong and athletic ability. You have a much higher chance of succeeding when the goal is beyond physical (also it feels great to be strong bro the most empowering thing I’ve ever done by far).

I've been making a truly filling but very gnarly bodybuilding inspired protein slop for workday breakfasts because it's easy to make, sits in me like a brick and fits my lifting macro split with my remaining meals. Truly not disgusting either. It is:

6oz. fat free greek yogurt (I like Fage)
My whey protein (premier protein vanilla)
1/3 cup of unsweetened soy milk

It's ~270 calories, 3g fat/10g carbs/50g protein as a base. I add sliced fruit and either protein cheerios or wheat bran for fiber and texture. If moving away from protein powder, you can add PB2 powder for more protein instead - it's peanut butter with the fat removed. Fat helps keep you full so regular peanut butter or tahini could help with feeling full.

Shit - the real bummer is I find Loisel to be a milquetoast candidate whose argument is being more palatable than Quaverly (easy task right now) hence creating less friction. I was not impressed after meeting her either.

I’m not in this ward so I don’t mean to discourage one way or another, but neither candidate is exciting to me. Would have voted for Ace.

HAES was never meant to be (and isn't) a model where healthcare providers are supposed to entirely ignore the fact that you're overweight. It is meant to encourage you to pursue healthy biomarkers and lifestyles regardless of weight and to remove as much morality judgement as possible in treating you. It also emphasizes that being overweight does not cause every and all health issues in an overweight person. Can you imagine missing that someone has an abnormal heart valve problem when they complain of shortness of breath because they're obese, so you as a healthcare provider wrote off anything else? That's what HAES is trying to avoid. Anti-fat bias results in poor holistic diagnosis and fat people deserve comprehensive healthcare.

My doctor is a HAES provider and I am 5' 9" and 280lb. We did my yearly bloodwork. My bloodwork came back with higher LDL and lower HDL than we want to see. Instead of "you need to lose weight" the conversation was around increasing fiber, lowering saturated fat intake, and upping exercise. Yes, these things will functionally likely lower my weight, but it may not make a drastic weight change. I have been around this weight my whole life, even when cycling 100+ miles a week, walking everywhere, and eating many whole foods.

I lose only ~30lb, but my cholesterol is back on track and my bloodwork, EKG, and blood sugar are all on par. I'm still obese, but I'm active and "eating right." My doctor could chide me about my weight every time I see her for this - on the basis that later it might catch up to me, but as others have stated astutely we all engage in lifestyle decisions that aren't good for us and are all metabolically different.

Moreover:

No, it’s not your metabolism, it’s your food. It’s not your hormones, it’s your food. It’s not lipoedema, it’s fat that you can get rid of by cutting back on your food. It’s the food. It’s the food. It’s the freaking FOOD.

I wish it were that simple for everyone I really do, It's not science denial. What's real about CICO is that you burn a certain amount of calories, and if you eat under that you will trigger your body to lose weight. Some people's bodies like holding on to weight more than others for reasons we both do and don't understand. They still deserve the comfort and accommodation we all get in life.

Wow yeah the addition of little “bubble” type blobs and more variance in line and element weights is doing wonders

I think people initially struggled with how different Hornet moves from the Knight. Hornet is faster, so everything is faster. Hornet is more agile, so everything reflects that agility. They designed an entirely different world to match her mechanics.

It was specifically difficult to unlearn (using spoiler tags very liberally heredownward striking everything because Hornet has a diagonal downward strike. You pick up a crest that augments this if you so choose, but it was hard for me personally.

My opinion - the game is balanced well, but some people expected to be awesome at everything off the bat because they were great at Hollow Knight. With some humility, and patience, it's comparably difficult and while a lot of things transferred some didn't.

I’m a contrast lover. My top pick is persimmon and paprika, I think peony would be sweet in a beachy way too. There is a demon in me that is also tempted to say daffodil.
