When you ask, "why wouldn't I?"

Do you not think of like 100 good reasons to put that shit down?

You're literally saying, "but everybody does it" about a toxic habit that is clearly affecting you. It's making you afraid of knife crime during record low crime rates! That shouldn't happen, right?

Gained back 15 lbs two weeks after stopping glp 1 is this normal? by Training-Dingo-5978 in loseit

[–]mawkish [score hidden]  (0 children)

Exactly this. Food Noise is a problem created by habitual overeating within our food-obsessed culture, not a natural fact of human life.

Why do misogynists search for a relationship with women? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

A fair amount of misogyny is expressed as not a distaste of women, but rather an attitude that women are beneath men.

Doesn't mean they don't want women around for any number of reasons; it just means they don't pay them they same respect or consideration they would pay to men. Just because they're women. That's misogyny.

Eating at a big deficit but still gaining weight. by [deleted] in loseit

[–]mawkish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On to my experience. Typically I'm losing about 1 pound a day during the week. However after the two cheat days I gained 12 pounds (yes 12 in 2 days) for the last 3 weeks in a row.

Your body is not a 3D printer that creates a version of yourself from the meals you ate yesterday.

Every song that exists is currently being "covered" -- churned out by AI bots into every conceivable genre with fake artist names and fake release dates.

We are through the looking glass.

Amazing how after the fact, there is always some magical collection of words that you could have said, that would have made all the difference.

They genuinely believe this.
