Secret trick is just letting the factory run while away.
Yeah, but I'm going to be a real ass about that one and leave that problem for the future me to deal with. If i can squeeze out a few decades, then my purpose has been served.
Technically yeah, it's completely possible to eat fast, though have to be careful with that one, max 10-15min otherwise you lose the momentum. It's even possible to eat on the go while standing up or walking.
That's what makes it unhinged, not taking into account that the body cant do it indefinitely. It most definitely has a long term cost
Completely fair. Probably less damaging approach anyway.
That's going to be the unhinged part or at least more of it.
In the morning, before the brain even understands what's going on. Start again. Swallow the breakfast slop, chug down coffee, all while half asleep and then start moving again. The brain wakes up while already in motion.
I've noticed somewhere in the ballpark of max 1h in the morning, after that it starts to get harder to get moving. A time that I'm currently starting to run out of, so time to get moving and hit the gym.
Disclaimer: Of course people are different and it doesn't work for everyone and it likely has a cost associated to it.
Not getting stuck in the first place. From the moment i wake up i keep going until everything is done or it's evening.
Sitting down for too long and taking a rest is a good way to lose momentum.
Alexithymia slop.
That's interesting. Good to know it's more common, not good that it is more common, just the knowledge of it being common is good. That means there are more people who have dealt with it and maybe gotten better at managing it.
The boring as hell part can be managed with a smartphone and some movies.
Of course depending on the specific machine. Some are better for it than others.
I prefer elliptical machine as it spreads the load out all across the body and it's the easiest to manage the load with it to aim for some specific heart rate zones. At the same time i have almost 2(1+1) undistributed hours to watch whatever movie or TV show i want. More peaceful than watching those at home.
Warhammer 40k. Rather deep lore and endless possibilities for larping.
An odd phenomenon i noticed.
Usually people like to share their hobbies to whoever is willing to listen and especially to people close to them.
What if that doesn't work? Like the complete opposite, trying to hide their hobbies especially from people close to them and really uncomfortable if any questions are asked about it or any comments made to the degree of not actually even engaging in any hobby activities in the fear of getting any attention on it?
I know it's not normal. I just can't figure out what that is or how to fix it?
Or is that too heavy subject for casual conversations?
I completely agree, but that's because the average bar is really low. No point to compare anything against that.
Though good enough doesn't imply that it's a comparison to anyone else or the general public. Good enough is sufficient for a specific need or circumstances, though not perfect. It indicates a threshold has been met where the results are functional enough with further improvements providing minimal benefits.
From the perspective of diet, good enough would be something that gets all the necessary nutrients in with minimal health consequences while supporting daily activities and being easily accessible and affordable.
Depending of the time of the year, 75-90% of my diet consist of oats, potatoes, buckwheat, rice, pasta as the main source of carbs and bulk of the calories. Chicken breast or lean cuts of pork and dairy products for protein and fats to support repair and growth from training and hormonal functions. Cucumbers, tomatoes, paprika, pickles, onions, carrots, garlic for the vitamins and volume and some fruits as a quick carb source before training sessions. All of it is always easily available and oftentimes on a sale and most of it can be bought in bulk then. While being super easy and fast to prepare. Bloodwork and health check-ups done multiple times a year are almost always in order, ferritin was kinda low last year and i overcompensated too much with it, though there aren't any significant issues with daily energy levels neither are there any daily tasks i have difficulties with. As most of it does go under whole foods so the long term health risks should be minimal as well.
Rest is filled with junk, snacks or social events.
It's not perfect, but it's good enough. Though of course I'm open to any criticisms towards it.
So I'm not against veganism or in any way saying it's bad, it would just go against the good enough principle by adding in an extra layer of complexity with minimal benefits.The energy required to maintain that extra layer of complexity can be used in other aspects of life to once again achieve or maintain good enough results.
As for the last part. I didn't invent that system, I'm just playing around in it with available resources. Though yeah, positive action is kinda meaningless and does jackshit, at least in the current system.
That's the spirit. Though cleaning it will be a pain in the ass.
Balanced omnivore diet is considered good enough for your health. Even currently popular, generally considered as the healthiest diet, Mediterranean diet includes lean meats and dairy. Or even WHOs recommendations include lean meats and dairy and a higher intake of it for athletes. Though yeah much less than an average American might eat and significantly less red meats. Glad I'm not from US and red meat is already rather expensive here.
As for the greater good, yeah sure. Just like with "toughts and prayers" and "essential worker" or pat on the back/warm handshake. As soon as i can pay with those in the store or send some of it to the electric company or even if the government would accept it as a replacement to taxes.
That seems to be a nice article https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/protein-for-vegans-vegetarians#beans
First easiest replacements seem to be lentils and beans, though not as high protein content as chicken breast or just protein powder. Products were primarily chosen based on price, cheapest available and as equal terms as possible. Excluded fish(tuna and salmon) as I'm lazy and the price of those already ranges in 12-17€/kg on the low end and protein content isn't that much higher than chicken.
Beans 100g, 121cal/0,7g fat/17g carbs/8g protein. 4,65€/kg
Lentils 100g, 119cal/1g fat/15g carbs/8g protein. 4,13€/kg Both were chosen stored in salt water for easier comparison as oddly beans are only available in salt water, canned or frozen while lentils are primarily available as dried goods.
Chicken breast 100g 104cal/1,6g fat/0,3 carbs/22g protein. 7,99€/kg
Whey protein powder 100g 417cal/7g fats/5,5g carbs/80g protein. 33,3€/kg
You have to replace prices yourself based on your location and on availability.
Surprisingly per kg, lentils and beans are cheaper. Though to get 100g of protein, id say below minimum requirement, more are required.
Beans 1,25kg of beans to get 100g of protein, in addition 8,7g fat, 212g carbs, 1512cal. Total price 5,81€.
Lentils. 1,25kg for 100g of protein, in addition 12,5g fat, 187g carbs, 1487cal. Total price 5,16€.
Chicken breast, 454g for 100g of protein, in addition 7,2g fat, 1,3g of carbs. 472 cal. Total price 3,62€.
Protein powder 125g for 100g of protein. In addition 8,7g fat. 6,2g carbs. 521cal. Total price 4,16€
Well, chicken breast is the cheapest source of protein, but protein powder is the least volume so probably easiest to consume.
Though chicken breast and protein powder would need some source of carbs to accompany it which would increase the price of total meal, but beans and lentils wouldn't.
So we get back to the original point of having varied diet and it should be good enough. No point to add extra layer of complexity for minimal difference to an activity that's already annoying enough by leaning towards any extreme.
Price, availability and easiest to balance. Not much more needed to choose omnivore diet. Eating is already annoying enough chore, no point to make it more difficult.
That's interesting, thank you for sharing.
So it's more of a correlational relationship rather than causational.
Does it happen with people close to you as well? Like with people who you can trust and logically know wouldn't say anything bad or shame you for any of those hobbies?
