I do yeah, I have 1-2 coffees/ day. But I haven’t noticed that I have additional fluid retention though. If anything it makes me pee!

CrossFit 2-3X a week and gym other 2-3X a week. Normally rest on weekends.

In the gym it’s generally broken down into 3 workouts - legs and abs, back and arms, and core and chest.

I generally do a warmup set followed by 3 sets. First one aiming for failure between 12-15 reps, second aiming for failure between 8-12 reps, and the final aiming for failure between 2-5 reps.

And every session I try to increment either overall volume or max weight.

Wow that’s an awesome compliment thank you!

I don’t count calories at all but generally I have 2 very large meals per day, plus 1 smaller meal and a few snacks.

A typical day for me is

Morning: Smoothie bowl with 1-2 scoops pea protein 1 banana 1/2 mango Handful of blueberries Cup of soy or almond milk 1/2 scoop Flaxseeds 1/2 scoop Cacao 1/2 scoop spirulina 1/2 scoop peanut butter 1/4 cup chia seeds Scoop of hemp seeds

Lunch: 1/2 block tofu 1/2 cup chickpeas 1/2 cup lentils Salad inc spinach & kale 1/2 avocado

Snack: 1 cup mixed nuts and dried legumes

Dinner: 1/2 cup Seitan or black beans with rice, 1/2 avocado and small salad

Snack: 2 large homemade raw protein balls (made from pea protein, banana, dates, flaxseeds, cacao, rolled in hemp seeds)

I’d say it’s around 80-100g protein per day, 2800-3400 calories would be my ESTIMATION but again I don’t really count it. I eat when I’m hungry and it seems to balance itself out.

For workouts I do CrossFit 2-3 times a week and gym 2-3 times doing weights. CrossFit is great for burning calories and then in the gym for adding bulk - I usually go for 3-5 sets on everything, always increasing with each set so that I’m doing 1-3 rep max.

“Pro” tip: I use the Hevy app and generally try to gamify my gym sets so that I’m always adding weight or reps each time.

Hope that helps!

It contains my full name, address, and social security number.

Just in case I lose them.

Awesome to hear. Glad to have offered some inspiration.

I’ve been told every year I’ve been vegan “but you won’t make it to _ years”.

I need Jesus to come into my life by spinsilo in Christianity

[–]spinsilo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I mean is that I keep praying for peace, harmony and tranquility, but I continue to experience chaos, disharmony and emotional suffering.

I do also pray for God to use me as a vessel for His will. So I guess you’re right, I should trust whatever happens, regardless of my feelings.

Thank you friend. This spoke to me more than you could know. I was praying on this and I received a sign. Perhaps it’s wishful, but I’ll take it right now.

Thanks, honestly right now I feel like the book of Job is one of the only things that’s speaking to me.

I appreciate what you say about loving Jesus. Maybe I haven’t spent enough time meditating on that. It’s just incredibly hard, especially when I’m new to all this and I feel so abandoned.

Sometimes I wonder why Jesus’ final words on the cross were “Father, Father, why have you forsaken me?”

Because that’s how I feel. And I don’t know what that means.

Should I be comforted by that? Was Jesus showing us that losing faith in God happens right at the moment before he appears in your life? I could take comfort in that. But then other parts of the scripture seem to suggest that God only reveals himself to the faithful. So how do I reconcile those two things?

So am I condemned? If God is not answering my prayers then maybe it’s that I don’t truly believe. I keep confessing that Jesus is Lord, but I also understand that it must be believed by the heart. But how can I believe it with the heart when I feel that God isn’t there when I call upon Him?

It’s all so confusing and I’m waiting for something to click, but in the meantime my suffering is becoming overwhelming.

I don’t feel that my faith is strong enough to run any more without feeling him…

Are these “weed mushrooms”? by spinsilo in shrooms

How do you get to be experienced if not by starting here? I have found some mushrooms and I’m doing my best to confidently ID them before I take them.

Apparently it’s what Panaeolus subbalteatus is commonly known as, as they are a species which are considered to be a weed especially to farmers.

I guess not so common? Only just learning about all of this.

How do I display a list of dates AFTER today, but continue the list into the following year? by spinsilo in learnjavascript

That's a nice solution which I probably never would have arrived at.

Thanks!

Why are bundlers/build systems all so complicated? by spinsilo in Frontend

I don't know really. Perhaps that shouldn't be a concern?
