Hell yeah.
Lost 30 lbs. by not eating on Mon, Wed, and Fri. Probably the easiest way I’ve ever lost weight.
I find I can either eat, or not eat. I have no in-between. I have no moderation. If I try to eat 3 small sensible meals a day I spend the whole day thinking about food and I wind up “cheating”.
Easier to just not eat that day. If you usually eat 2,500 calories a day you just cut 7,500 calories out of your weekly Calories In without even really trying.
Yup. It works. It just makes you not want to constantly cram food in your mouth.
The only problem is if you stop it. Oh my god the hunger urges come back twice as strong. Unstoppable food rampage urges…
The article is missing the point.
It’s easier to do. Duh.
Of course the real way to lose weight is Calories In, Calories Out. Anyone who thinks there’s some secret sauce special magic in South Beach, Paleo, Vegan, Low-Carb, Keto, Intermittent Fasting, Alternate Day Fasting is just reducing their caloric intake as a by-product of their “diet”.
It’s always been Calories In, Calories Out. It’s just easier to lower your intake by fasting sometimes. Trying to eat small, sensible meals suuuucks.
Even GLP-1s work by turning off hunger so you don’t want to cram food in your face all the time. So you eat less calories…
It’s not rocket surgery.
If it works, then it works.
I wonder if they ever tried, ya know…making their food taste good?
They tried raising prices, they tried shrinkflation, they tried paying their employees as little as legally possible, they tried lowering staffing levels to the least number of employees humanly possible, they even floated the idea of surge pricing in fast food…but the whole time I’ve known Wendy’s to exist, at least in my area, the burgers have been bland and the fries have been soggy and tasteless. And I’m old enough to remember Wendy’s having a bland salad bar to go with the rest of their bland food.
Yeah, you’re probably right. I don’t even think Jim Beam has any information about age or years on it’s, um, plastic screwtop bottle.
Just to be safe though I’mma buy a few bottles in 2027.
So I know that Jim Beam is an entry level bourbon, and I know the story here is more about the tariffs and the relationship between the US and the rest of the world…
But genuine question: will 2027 Jim Beam be super good because it’s aged an extra year?
President Camacho knew that there was a problem and actively recruited the smartest person he could find…completely unrealistic.
