What is the better option- to leave alcohol or to leave sweets. End goal - to lose weight. Can’t leave both at the same time !

So, recently seen a lot of (great) posts about weight loss and plateauing, but genuinely surprised to see that many are relying on cutting out food, but not focused on exercising. Why is this the case? There are SO many benefits to health from exercising, beyond just weight loss...

My therapist just told me I'm depressed..do you ever feel like they tell you things you hear a lot or could have figured out on your own? Like take care of yourself, it's ok to feel such and such, etc. I'm still newer to therapy so wondering if that's the common experience? Do you ever have moments where you're like wow that actually is eye opening and I wouldn't have gotten that from reading self help books and websites etc?

I’ve had issues since high school, but just formally got diagnosed with ADHD. I’ve always managed to get by okay at work (I’m no super star), but remote meetings have been really difficult for me and I now feel like I’m barely hanging on. Trying meds now, but no benefits yet. Pros and Cons of disclosing the diagnosis to my team, partner, or firm? I’m torn.

If you're looking for inspirational films about addiction I highly recommend The Resurrection of Jake the Snake Roberts. It's a documentary about the wrestler who had about as bad an addiction problem as you can imagine. It goes through his problems, despair, but also shows his road to recovery through platonic love, support, and he finds redemption. It's great for anyone like me that tried and failed to get sober for years. I have over a year now for the first time.

Here’s my center-right plan on abortion.

1. Re-route all money in Congress towards the goal of saving 100% of the lives of ALL eggs once they’re fertilized. At. All. Costs. Call it Operation Super Warp Speed 2.0 for kicks and giggles.

2. Postpone all decisions regarding Roe until the goal is accomplished.

3. Once the goal is reached, ban all abortions. ALL of them. Pregnant women can opt for losing their kid, but never can contact the child. Ever. No exceptions. No changing your mind.
