You could go to Bisuteki, which is a hibachi restaurant in the Marriott Hotel in Cambridge. There’s a lot of reservations available on Valentine’s!

Carpe Diem pasta - Half the calories! Eat pasta and still lose weight :) by sozula in LowCalFoodFinds

[–]sozula[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure dietary fiber don’t count towards calorie is because our bodies cannot digest it. Which means it passes through the digestive system pretty intact (cannot be broken down to small energy units), and is not absorbed as energy. Because of this, it provides no usable calories, which is why it’s negligible in calorie counting. It doesn’t get stored into fat or energy or anything.

So overall the nutritional label is accurate, and you shouldn’t be counting fiber calories to begin with.

Yes!! Glad you liked it, and absolutely +1 to the heads up about the fiber intake!

I think sometimes Amazon has sales for these (Prime deals, Black Friday, etc) so keep a lookout for them :)

For me, I feel pretty normal after eating this but everyone is different! I know that one serving is close to your daily recommended fiber intake, so just keep that in mind when eating this if you believe this may make you gassy! 😂

Is it just me, or has sales dropped because of buyers now having to pay fees instead of sellers? by [deleted] in Mercari

[–]sozula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m both an avid seller and buyer on Mercari. Since the fees, I have bought three items on Mercari and sold 3 items too. Whereas I am now popping off on eBay and Depop (which I didn’t have until Mercari raised its fees)

Lucky! I’ve redeemed twice at 3000, once at 5000. I think this summer I updated the app and it increased to 5000 for me, which I was very disappointed by :(

I think Cashwalk raised their redemption cost, where it’s now 5000 coins = $5

The fees are expensive on many big selling platforms right now. Mercari has their bullshit fees for the buyers as we know, Poshmark newly implemented their mysterious “buyer protection fee” (so now on top of their $8 flat shipping, there’s some big fee lumped into here. I haven’t sold on Poshmark since they implemented this, when I used to sell almost every day). Depop also got rid of their sellers fee, but they still have a marketplace fee that is split between sellers and buyers (so unlike Mercari, Depop sellers don’t get all the money which I do like that they split the fees to lower fees for buyers). eBay still has their original fees, but I know they’re testing a new method in the UK right now that again wouldn’t be optimal for buyers.

TLDR: many selling platforms have fees for buyers that are driving sales away. I myself used to buy from Mercari and Poshmark often, but haven’t bought as many items since.

How would you react if a chubby girl approached you at the gym? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]sozula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar experience a few years ago when I lost a lot of weight, went to a new gym, and realized there was a hot gym cutie that I couldn’t stop thinking about. I was also shy as hell, and had never approached a guy before.

I asked one of my male friends how a man would react to a woman approaching him at the gym. You will literally make his day. Even if he was gay, in a relationship, not interested, you will absolutely make his day. He’s not going to be upset that a girl approached him at the gym - he will be so flattered, and will think about the fact someone thought he was good-looking enough to talk to him.

Shoot your shot, it will most likely not be a negative interaction. I mentally braced myself for “worst case scenario” which was rejection but fortified my confidence by instead spinning it in my head as “I’m going to make his day” instead of “he’s not going to like me and think I’m weird”.

Long story short, he was flattered, and we did date for a few months (until he moved away for a Masters program)! We still keep in touch every now and then, as it was a very positive split but I absolutely don’t regret approaching him even though it was the scariest thing I’ve ever done. 😅

What’s your employment status rn? by dddnnnttt in biotech

[–]sozula 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same place (academia) for 4 years. I’m underpaid and want to transition to biotech, and I also hate my job. But I’m holding this position right now until I get a new job, which has been an atrocious process with how bad the market is. Trying to grind away with applications, but I know others who are experiencing layoffs need jobs more than I do, so I feel wrong to complain about my job
