For every “pls fix” and comment needed to be addressed, do 50 push-ups and 100 crunches and also cut 100 calories from your daily caloric intake starting at 2000 calories and bottoming out at 1200. You’ll be shredded by Christmas.

Just switch out stackoverflow with #plsfix

It's 90% diet, 10% working out (I just made these up for effect). For example, one gummy bear is 9 calories. Doing up down is about 8-10 calories a minute. So ten gummy bears would be about 90 calories or another way of looking at it, 9 minutes of up downs. Stick to the diet so your up downs burn fat and not the gummy bears you ate that day.

you aren’t far off. For women, ~80% of body changes is due to diet and for men ~60-70% is due to diet. the rest comes from fitness.

I took up jogging during covid. It’s kind of nice because you just go outdoors and tell yourself you can’t come back home for at least 30 min. Way easier to motivate myself to do that than jump around at home where snacks and my phone are calling my name.

Put on workout clothing as soon as you wake up. It makes you feel committed & more excited for the workout. Helps me ALOT.

If you want to lose weight that is purely a diet thing. Exercise just makes you hungrier. If you are 25, get strong while your body is still working with you - I reccomend the starting strength barbell program.

I disagree- Doing regular cardio can drop weight fast, but it has to be sustained. 60 min a day including weights and I dropped about 20lb in 6 months (this may be considered slow for some)

Got a Gorilla Bow a few weeks back and I’m really into it. Allows you to replicate most lifts at the gym for a fraction of what you’d pay for free weights.

Blogilates on youtube has monthly workout calendars and challenges
Also T25 can also be a good alternative, bc it’s only 25 minutes long

I started on Estradiol patches for awhile then moved to a topical cream now am on the pills. Initially Premarin but due to increasing prices I’m back on Estradiol. I don’t sleep very well, still get hot flashes, and experience highs & lows.

I took the role I am in about a year ago and it just has not been what was promised and a huge step back. I have found a good place and am content but not overly happy with my place in the company. A smaller competitor reached out for a vp position that is a huge step up responsibility wise. There would be a pay raise but not huge so money is not the motivator here. Is this crazy to seriously consider? I hate to burn bridges. I have been told I am on the partner fast track. Thoughts? Advice?

Desi folks on visa, my company is preparing to file for perm to start GC process. I have over 11 years of work ex and have an approved I140 from previous company. This company’s immigration firm is asking for a VERY specific work experience letter from previous employers. For the most part I have got it from them but these guys are looking line by line from the job description and wants everything on the letter. I think this is too much and being nit picky plus no employer would even give what..

I am really worried that due to car shortage and job losses thefts are going to go up. Car dealerships are having wait times of 5-6 months for new cars so any theft would create lot of trouble for our young family.
