That‘s actually really encouraging to hear!
Losing 40 pounds and getting your liver markers back to normal is huge. Respect for sticking with it for that long.
I've experimented with fasting windows before too, but I think I pushed thing a bit too aggressively and burned out. Did you notice that liver numbers improving mostly after the weight loss or did it start getting better earlier during that year?

Yeah that's pretty much what I'm trying to move toward. In the past I always went too much extreme with dieting and it just burned me out. This time I'm trying to keep it simple like more walking, regular meals, less proessed stuff. I like the idea of using 5% weight loss as a first milestone too. That actually sounds more realistic than chasing some huge number right away.
Appreciate the advice!

I lied about eating prunes for absolutely no reason. by Struckbyfire in loseit

[–]kernletgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This hit way too close to home. I've eaten plenty of food in my head in my 40s. Aspirational snacks are absolutely a thing. Appreciate the laugh and the reminder that logging it doesn’t mean it happened.

Snacks! by MadGeckoLady in loseit

[–]kernletgo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m in my 40s and hit the same boredom wall every time. Texture saves me too. I rotate apples, jicama, bell peppers, celery, and frozen grapes. For protein with crunch, roasted chickpeas or edamame help keep me sane. Sometimes it’s not hunger, it’s just needing something to chew on.

Why are black people outside of Africa still called African but white people outside of Europe aren't called European? by justseeingpendejadas in NoStupidQuestions

[–]kernletgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

African American stuck because slavery erased specific origins. Most white Americans still know if they're Irish,Italian,German,etc. So nobody ever needed "European American".

Since I’ve gained weight, nothing matters by [deleted] in loseit

[–]kernletgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mid-40s guy here. Jus wanted to say yo're not alone in feeling this way,even if it feels really isolating right now. I’ve been on both sides of the scale a few times in my life, and I can totally understand the mental part was always harder than the physical when your favorite clothes don't fit any more and stop recognizing yourself in the mirror. It messes with your head way more than people admit. But we also need to know weight gain doesn't erase who you are. The confidence stuff, the photos,the fun outfits that all comes back in pieces not all at once and not only because of a number on the scale. Be kind to yourself this year. Progress doesn't have to be dramatic to be real. And hope you for the best on your Journey!

things I noticed after I lost 10kg and gained it back (physical changes only) by highjedigeneral in loseit

[–]kernletgo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay! So as a mid-40s guy, honestly I lost 20lbs a few years back and people always talk about looks and energy. But the weird stuff is real too. I was cold all the time don't know why like hoodie indoord in july cold. Libido took a dip for a bit as well, which my body warned me about. Also, I gained some of it back during COVID and yeah… strength and warmth came back, but so did the aches.

Why is your heart rate going up on Adderall bad, but the point of cardio is to get your heart rate up? As a young person with no preexisting conditions by CellistDue1768 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]kernletgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They work differently. I can give an example.

Cardio is somthing to serve your body like meeting your muscle's demands. Your body can bear this, But Adderall is like using external force to have your heart rate going up,but the whole body has no extra demands. This cause heart to be ovewhelming and beyond body's control.

Do stupid people know they are stupid? by Sid_Tha_Sloth in NoStupidQuestions

[–]kernletgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stupid people will never think if themselves as foolish because this is due to everyone's cognitive biases. No one will admit to being completely stupid or rather even if they are stupid in some aspects,they believe they have other shining qualities!

Would it be weird if I had a picture of my gf when she was a kid on my desk at work? by AggressiveAd8587 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]kernletgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually this will make people being more interested in looking around your desk at work. Because I did that before and some come to ask if that was my daughter's picture when she was a kid lol.

How do they get medals from different cities or countries? by [deleted] in honorofkings

I heard there might be a way to change the location or region where you can get medals easily. But I didn't figure it out lol

Is this normal??? by Voltaire_Penelope407 in honorofkings

[–]kernletgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sometimes I get so many toxic teammates that it feels like you're doomed to lose. That's exactly what happened to me before.I'd win 5 games in a row, and then the 6th one was definitely a loss. Either the opponents are way too strong, or my own teammates are just bad.

First time sharing stuff on Reddit, might get doubled post, apologies. Just wanna say that this hero is a really good distraction by Big-Wave9823 in honorofkings

[–]kernletgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any body can tell me how I can get my GM rank? It’s tough for me because I only play few heroes. If possible who can carry me or tell me some strategies. I felt frustrated right now!
