I won’t give a specific solution.

What works for you ultimately depends on you; be it intermittent fasting, OMAD, cutting sugar and/or salt, simply eating less, working out, a combination of the previously mentioned, etc. but what I feel allowed me to actually lose weight (~50 pounds so far) was accepting that – whatever you end up doing – it’s not temporary. It’s a lifestyle change. You’re just going to regain that weight if you return to the habits that brought you there in the first place.

Mentally, I also approached it as “one step at a time”. Weight fluctuates for all sorts of reasons be it water intake, you just ate, etc. I didn’t get discouraged as I saw the number go up and down a few pounds here and there, but continued to view every few pounds as a milestone worth celebrating (not with a cheat day, mind you). The general trend kept going down, I was getting and remaining healthy, and that’s all I really cared about.

Ah, this just gave me a fun wallpaper idea and reminded me that my emulator exists. Thanks 👍

Tbh that’s probably good enough for a deployable self defense solution.

🤣

Appears to me that, when they had the toilet sitting in the now-carpeted room as contractors worked on the flooring in the bathroom, a contractor tasked with applying carpet to the room the toilet was temporarily being stored in had a typical “not my job” moment and laid down the carpet everywhere except where the toilet was temporarily being placed.

You can even see the garish cut the contractor made on the right hand side of the hole so he could get the carpet to lay into the corner, behind the toilet, instead of simply moving it.

Y’know what, you’re right. I think I am due for another rewatch.
