If it were me, there's a risk I would gain weight as I just sit at home playing video games and watching TV while my copies did all the work and errands. So each new copy would be slightly chubbier than the last. I would have to make a real effort to stay active, maybe exercise while my copy is out doing stuff, or get into an outdoor sport.
Started walking/jogging 2 miles on the treadmill every other day.
Did 20 squats and hip/pelvic exercises while brushing my teeth for 2 minutes every night.
Kept light weights on my desk so I could work my arms while watching videos.
Got a job where I was on my feet walking 15000-20000 steps a day. In the summer I was sweating buckets and drinking a lot of water.
Oatmeal and fruit for breakfast, bottle of Soylent for lunch, normal dinner with my husband. I would still snack and have dessert and stuff, but I wouldn't have as much as I used to. For example, instead of a whole slice of cake, I would have just a thin slice.
Eventually started jogging/running outdoors.
Went from 14/L to 8/S. I'm not sure how much time it took exactly because I wasn't keeping track but I think it was less than a year. Just weighed myself one day and I had lost like 30 pounds.
Edit: I forgot to add that I also would only drink water or an alcoholic beverage with my meals. I figured lemonade and soda and iced tea were all extra calories and sugar that I didn't need.
Edit again: I forgot I also would take the stairs instead of the elevator. So really overall it's just little things here and there and they all add up. I can't give up carbs or any food really because I love to eat, just enjoy a smaller portion. :)
So good with rice and a chutney of diced tomatoes, vinegar, fish sauce, and salted duck egg. I grew up in the Philippines but have lived in the US for more than half my life, so I can understand how it can be perceived as weird and even gross, but as a kid I was so used to seeing it on a plate that to my brain it registers as totally normal.
A couple of my favorites that haven't been mentioned yet:
A Few Good Men - legal drama that explores the idea of "just following orders" in the military
Shawshank Redemption - one of the best movies ever, just go watch it already
Edit: You might also enjoy Equilibrium - dystopian film about a future where extreme emotions are outlawed in an effort to prevent crime. Bonus fun action scenes involving gun katas.
I realize you're probably doing it for yourself, but as someone who's had neighbors who don't care that their dog is a noise nuisance, I appreciate you.
Definitely relatable, but is anyone else bothered by the extra steps they took? I really want to know because if it's just me then it gives me insight into myself.
They printed out the blurb, cut it into strips, and individually affixed each strip to the card, instead of just creating a document that has the "MY PERSONALITY" and lines and blurb all included and printing it all together.
If they wanted to not waste the cards, they still have the option of writing on them, as was originally intended.

I do believe that's the joke...
