ARMS DAY. GAINZ. I'm cutting back on chest since I'm starting to look like a giant pectoral with biceps that don't match

I want to start up intermittent fasting again. I had it going for about 2 weeks last year and then I ate outside window once and could never get back into it. Worked really well for me because it was easy to spread my target calories over two moderately sized meals than spread over the whole day.

Right now I’m just eating less without tracking it and it’s working ok. ~2.8/week

Since December, 213 to 199 today. 39 to go.

very cool. I've been at it for a while now and I've found it is actually a lot easier for me in keto because I just don't get hungry and when I do it, I don't get hit with a post-meal fog. I take calories once a day around 1:00 and then just water/coffee/tea (no sweetener/malk/etc) the rest of the time. I was surprised by the amount of visceral fat I've lost.

Is turning our diets or daily exercise routines into a strict computer algorithm or scientific formula for "peak efficiency" really going to accomplish something wonderful? I can appreciate the goals and the general idea of healthy habits & practices....but some seem to be treating or talking about their eating and exercise lifestyles to an exact science like it's some kinda engineering project?

IDK this just bores the heck out of me personally....is boredom or tedium really worth the extra "gains"?

Besides feeling "better" and looking "hot", are we trying to sex up robots eventually? This sounds like robot talk to me! [You must be logged in to view images.

i just do it because I feel better, physically and mentally. it helps me maintain balance, which is what enables me to do more ^^

Also this. I feel better. Because I am more able to do the very few things I enjoy well.

You're missing the point. But if you want to "do whatever you want" it's kinda hard to be a total bitch when sugar daddy upgrades to the cybernetic model.

My goal is to never poop again.

speaking of not pooping, did you know that there are mites that live on most people's faces that eat our oil, but can't poop because they don't have a butthole and so when they die, they rot in our pores filling them with all the poop a mite has amassed in its tummy over the course of its life?

Is that a blackhead origin? Cool info too.
