Im generally against men commenting in here but this was too relevant to my experiences to not mention. I have felt similarly to the husband in this scenario. In my case there was one thing (sex) that was feeling backburnered, that led to me generally being irritated about other things. Once that primary concern was addressed I didnt sweat everything else so much. Maybe your husband has a different primary concern, or the same one, and perhaps if you focus on the most important thing for him eve…

You cannot lose weight without a caloric deficit. Period. There are technically some subtleties about what qualifies as "intake calories" but for 99.9% of the population (including me) this is not worth pursuing, especially if you aren't already tracking literally every bite of food. If you are losing weight, its a caloric deficit. If you arent losing weight, its not a caloric deficit. Yes if you have 2 diets with equal calories and one has lets say, more protein, that may be better for holding …

Not sure then. As for finding out about insulin effects from specific sweeteners I'd look up the specific sweeteners - different ones may affect hormones differently.

Burning more fat is only significant if you are storing the same amount of fat. Hint: in keto you are also storing more fat. As with all diets, it only works if you are burning more calories than you are taking in (for the most part). There is a bit of inefficiency in the conversion of fat to ketones in ketosis that helps a bit to increase what you can get away with in the calorie department, but as always, you can gain weight on a given diet if you over-eat.

Hold up. A minimally processed diet is helpful to establish a caloric deficit but not necessary. Don't confuse the means with the end. As others have commented, you can increase the percentage of your diet that is processed and still lose weight as long as the calorie deficit is there.

Look, I was kind of harsh earlier, but really. Think about it. If your insulin is low (lets say you are eating a keto diet), but you eat 8000 calories, do you think you are likely to lose weight? You might have extremely good insulin and a doctor might be impressed, but keep that up for a couple months and you will quickly gain weight. ​ At the same time, many (myself included) have lost weight on a slight caloric deficit with frequent meals, and with high carbs (including high simple sugars). I…

Agreed. I personally have found it very useful for controlling hunger as I am have binge-eating tendencies. That said, its primary value for me is hunger management.

Might be sugar alcohols in the sweetener - those often give people GI distress. I'd suggest either learning to enjoy black coffee or just embrace the like 50 calories of the sugar. Just eat like 1 less bite of a cookie later on or have like 1 less beer on saturday.

100% correct. OP thinks that insulin can magically defy the laws of thermodynamics.

Eventually, when you get lean enough, your lifts will suffer. You don't have to go low carb, but you do have to reduce calories, and sooner or later, that caloric reduction will take its toll. The upside though, is that as your absolute strength drops, if you are cutting slowly and continue to train hard, your relative strength with increase.

Nice strawman. Of course its different. Let me say it again, so you can't misconstrue my message, again. Calories are the MOST important factor, NOT the only factor.
/r/TheRedPill28/06/20 05:56 PM

This is far more complicated than it needs to be, and has a lot of fallacies in it. Saying that a caloric deficit helps is an understatement. It is the single most important factor for weight loss. All other strategies (if they are effective) are subservient to the goal of creating a caloric surplus. It is a false narrative that quality of calories matters more than quantity of calories when it comes to weight loss. You could have made a 1 paragraph long post that would have been more helpful fo…

Only because that correlates with increased caloric intake in most cases. There is no significant evidence that with caloric-equivalent diets, that a low-carb or fasting diet has any advantage over a more "traditional" diet.

This applies in so many areas. Well said. If a third of people had this much sense, we'd all be so much better off.

I don't know if OP can be described this way, but "I'm just being honest" syndrome is definitely not a virtue. Very well summed up. Honesty is important, but so is tact.

You'd probably be better off consulting an abnormal psychology textbook. In my case, both of them were diagnosed, confirmed by more than one psychiatrist, so I didn't need to sit around wondering if I got it right.

Oh yeah, with my sample size of one, dynamite in the sack. Still not worth it imo. I had an opportunity to hit it again - and believe me I have at least an average, maybe above average amount of horn dog in me - and I decided it wasn't worth it and I passed. I suppose if you could keep it no strings attached it might be ok if you don't have much to lose. But if I was successful at all or had any plates going that I cared about at all, I would hard pass on a BPD.

As someone who has dated a BPD and whose fiancee's mom is BPD, I know very well that there is no reason whatsoever to be involved with someone like this. They can and will tear your life apart. Keep them away with a 500 foot pole.

Have you actually looked at the site? Unless its changed drastically in 5 years it is extremely simple. You just set the area to the person in question and start scrolling.

Its not exciting. I dated her for a few months. We broke things off because she had an extremely demanding career and I got tired of her spending so much time on it that she had time for little else. Also she sucked at communication. The sex was pretty good at least.

Yeah I just made an account, set the geographic area to her address with a small radius and scrolled through a few pages. Ended up confronting her about it. Wish I could say I broke it off or just relegated her to a FWB but I was pretty BP back then.

I happen to stumble on a reddit post where some guy discovers his girlfriend was on there and so I looked around a little bit and found the girl I was currently dating on seeking arrangement. I had to do it by hand but it's probably pretty easy to write something to just scrape the site for all photos and compare them to a database of IDs. Even easier if you just want to look for one person

Thats why I drink my coffee during the fast. Even after getting used to it though, IF can be tough to sustain. I typically only do it for a couple months at a time, then transition back to a more regular schedule. Part of the value of it for me is getting control of my hunger and increasing my ability to resist pigging out at the slightest hunger pangs.

IF isn't magic. Figure out a method that is easy to sustain. Compliance is the single most important factor in diet success. That being said, I like IF because it helps me with hunger, which is my biggest challenge while cutting. If I am able to deal with hunger, compliance is easy for me. He's a bit annoying as a person, but (Dr.) Layne Norton has a bunch of solid, no-nonsense diet information.

This post blew me away. Have been slowly redpilling for a while, but more than any other post this is so relevant. I literally check every box on the diagnostic, so I need to focus on these issues.

Kind of a side show to the point of your post, but that's cool you are getting back into music. It also used to be a huge passion for me and I have been trying to find my way back to the inspiration I felt then. Good for you for committing to the gig.

I see the contradiction. You are right about that. I guess what I am saying is I can understand why someone would believe that circumcision is "less bad" (and in this case I think lack of information is a big part). I stand with the spirit of opposing "Oppression Olympics" because they are unproductive, and harmful to society at large. So I suppose the "contradiction" comes from trying to see the other side of the issue, while personally holding beliefs that may oppose that other side. I think i…

Agreed it probably is less bad. Circumcized men usually can still usually enjoy sex. That said I am against circumcision. Your comment isn't an endorsement for circumcision but it will be down voted anyways because it is a less extreme reaction. In general though, oppression Olympics aren't helpful and only hurt the cause of the person using this tactic.

Good point about Asia Argento. I would advise not accusing all women of creating drama just for dramas sake if you actually want some of them to listen to you and begin to question feminist dogma. If you are just trying to stereotype the whole gender for fun, I guess this doesn't apply.

Yep, I am a low bar squatter primarily. Deadlifts (especially stiff-legged) are still the best for targeting glutes and hams. You are right though that low bar targets them more than high bar. Edit: I also think widening stance doesn't normally affect glutes and hamstring involvement, but that discussion starts to get deeper into exercise science than I feel I can confidently speak. Also look up Lombards paradox which explains how the hamstring has less leverage over the knee than the quads. Thi…

Squats for glutes is generally inferior to deadlifts. Squats primarily target quadriceps, with glutes being a secondary mover.

Toning is not a thing. Spot fat removal without liposuction is not a thing. You can lose fat by eating fewer calories than you burn but your genetics will decide where the fat comes off first. It may be that as you get leaner fat will come off where you want first or it may not. If it doesn't, your only option is to keep getting leaner. If you want to learn about this, bodybuilders have a wealth of knowledge on this and similar topics. Scoobysworkshop.com has good information without selling any…

Thats fine. Half that should be fine for conserving muscle and the average person who doesn't lift doesn't need as much protein. However if you are lifting, upping that would very likely speed your progress, and if you are cutting, it will help you hold onto your hard-earned muscle while you lose weight. Your advice was good overall, and more helpful than most that the general public sees.

Good tips, but the protein number is high. A gram per pound of lean body mass is a better number. Eating more than this won't hurt, but likely won't be necessary and may cause some people GI issues. If you are LBM 130 and eating close to that in protein, you are fine.

Too new to speak on the red pill stuff, but Candito's programming is known to be pretty sub-par for bench. Something that helped me was reducing the intensity a bit and adding a bunch more volume. You could try adding sets to individual sessions or just add a bench session on a day that doesn't have one. Also if you know someone who is good at benching who can check out your technique, that could make a sizeable difference. Biggest thing to look for is tucking your shoulders down and back.

Also would suggest trying to maintain the weight once you arrive at your goal. If you manage to stay consistently around the same weight for a while, your body tends to want to stick there. This should help in avoiding yo-yoing.

I think it might be worthwhile to compare and contrast Aristotle's virtue ethics and Kantian ethics. To oversimplify, the girls are closer to Aristotle's virtue ethics which says your character should embody virtue and that will lead to virtuous actions. Kant on the other hand suggests that the only way to truly know someone is obeying moral law is if the moral law runs against their personal inclinations, which could more closely support your stance. I think an argument could be made for each c…
