Read the article, 2/3 of it corroborate that it is a calorie in/out balance that determines weight, but is simply more complex than a simple formula. Which we all know. Fiber changes how many calories you actually consume. The type of calorie depends on how much you consume (whole foods vs processed, raw vs cooked) Processed sugars like candy is almost entirely taken in calorie wise, but something like an apple or carrot, have to be converted in the digestive system to be absorbed, thereby reducing the effective calorie input (takes energy to convert).

All that said, you do your best to track, (weigh your own food instead of guessing off the label), and keep your calorie intake below what you spend (again, this is generalized, and won't be 100% accurate, but should get you close and then you adjust as needed). The problem most people face is they make sweeping changes, and quit their eating habits cold turkey. "I'm never eating candy or ice cream again" <- bad idea unless you're allergic or something. Forbidding it will increase the craving for it, and then when you eventually succumb to the craving, you feel super guilty and basically give up.

I follow the "add good food" rather than the "reduce what I eat". If you up your fiber and protein intake, it's SUPER hard to overeat. Fiber and protein are super satiating, and it lasts a long time. Adding whole foods to what you already eat is a great way to reduce overall consumption.

Btw potatoes and beans are GOATed.

Yeah

It also does basically nothing. I'll watch the steam go anywhere but the fan as it rises.

For real, F makes no sense for cooking. I can get the argument for outside temps, but I'll pick metric over imperial any day

Do you have to oil it? I'd like to avoid that wherever possible.

Bro for real, never seen anything but it gets greener from boiling

Not yet, will consider and research

Was thinking the same

Smells fine raw, just makes a stink when I cook it. Already washed. Also KY US

Well it was 12⁰ the other day....

Lawl, ours doesn't vent outside, just has a filter then pumps it out the top

Oooo I like this. How much water? Okay for it to sit in the water, or does it have to be up?

This is all awesome, thank you.

Yeah, I loved the little hesitation he gave too. Too much of a coward to commit fully.

So you can be excluded from service if you prove that you fit every stereotype?

I mean, I've seen several TV shows and movies that show that spycraft is definitely hereditary. That means that it's definitely the case for big balls.... Right?.....

Totally agree. Most of those look very innocuous. If you watch the video of the particular event in question, it's blatantly obvious:

It's super annoying isn't it? The video is superbly clear. He did it, he did it on purpose, and he knew what it meant. You can see it, and his intent easily.

You just proved you're not a maga chad (not insinuating that you ever were, or have been suspected of such).

It's amazing how much they claim to care about law and order until it happens to someone they like. Then all of the sudden it's unfair. But if it's someone they don't like then forget the due process.

They're masters of the double standard

For real, what are the chances he even met his Grandpa.
