#pasta

Otóż, stało się! Stało się, skandal na całą Polskę - ja, Krzysztof Stanowski, ku uciesze mediów wreszcie zostałem kryminalistą. Co się teraz ze mną stanie - nie wiem. Może wystawią mnie w dybach w centrum Warszawy. Ale sytuacja jest poważna. Zapytacie co zrobiłem - zabiłem kogoś, okradłem, może obrabowałem miliony Polaków z ich pieniędzy z OFE? A gdzie tam, zrobiłem coś gorszego. Jechałem. Jechałem samochodem. Co gorsza - swoim prywatnym, a jeszcze gorsze, wartym więcej niż 100 tysięcy zlotych, co w Polsce już samo w sobie jest zbrodnią. Pani urzędnik, albo pan urzędnik, przecież nie musiała to być kobieta, postanowił sobie kiedyś postawić znak ograniczenia prędkości. Wiadomo - jakąś pracę w tych urzędach trzeba wykazać, a znaki jak znaki, tanie, łatwo się montuje, stoi taki znak to nie trzeba się nim interesować. Żeby chronić biednych przechodniów przed takimi oprychami jak ja, żeby się nikt broń boże na kawałku pustej i równej drogi nie rozpędził do zawrotnych 110 czy tam 100 kilometrów na godzinę. Bo przecież gdyby nie stawiano takich znaków, to musianoby się broń boze zajmować takimi bzdurami jak korupcja w Warszawie albo szpitalem południowym, w którym lekarze zamiast pracować wynosza publiczne pieniądze całymi workami. Cóż, przynajmniej jeszcze nasze państwo stać na postawienie kolejnego znaku. #stanowski #kanałzero #pasta

@LunaDragofelis@void.lgbt Have a think about whether you're an abstainer or a moderator: https://gretchenrubin.com/articles/abstainer-vs-moderator/ When it comes to food, I'm an abstainer. I find it easier to fast sometimes and eat my fill at other times than to live on half-portions of pigeon food all the time. I had good results with the 5:2 #diet — lost a lot of weight and kept it off for about 15 years. (I've now stopped fasting because I've reached an age where muscle-loss is a threat.) #Fasting is not for children, cis women of childbearing age, people who've ever had an eating disorder, or people who've been told not to fast for medical reasons. Fasting is not a substitute for a healthy diet or moderate exercise. You need those too. https://gretchenrubin.com/articles/abstainer-vs-moderator/ The other piece of advice I'd give is to wean yourself off junk food. I did it. It took me years. In an average week, I now consume no crisps, biscuits, cakes, sweets, chocolate, takeaway meals, white bread, pies, fizzy drinks or fruit juice. This stuff is engineered to be addictive and to make you crave more of it. It's a drug. It's adversarial. It manipulates your innate drives to make you keep eating products that don't satisfy you and don't nourish you. Cut out one form of junk food at a time and replace it with something healthy and non-addictive. It will be hard. You'll relapse. But you'll be healthier for doing it, and in all sorts of ways, not just reduced weight. Obviously, the less junk food you eat, the better, but you'll start to benefit as soon as you start cutting it out. You say in your message that you don't like healthier foods. Neither did I. Junk food is engineered to by hyper-palatable. That's part of what makes it addictive. But you won't beat the bulge while eating foods that are designed to make you crave more. And sometimes, as with vegetables, you just need to get it done so that you can move on with something else. I think anyone who claims to enjoy vegetables is lying. Don't tell anyone I said that. I eat vegetables anyway. Realistically, if you don't do so already, you're going to have to learn how to cook. You can't eat healthily from takeaways and restaurants. One easy way to start is to replace white #bread with wholemeal and white #pasta with wholegrain. They have more micronutrients and they cause less inflammation (think: joint pain), but they also keep you full for longer so that you don't go back to the snack cupboard two hours after eating. What else? Oh, yeah, if you drink #alcohol, cut it down as much as possible. It's just empty calories. The less booze you drink, the faster you'll lose weight. And #walk more. Find ways to get more footsteps into your day. Get a cheap smartwatch and gamify the experience if you think it'll help. (Using Gadgetbridge rather than the manufacturer's app will help preserve your privacy.) Finally, try social pressure, because it'll help to keep you on the straight and narrow. One person here documents her weight loss, complete with charts. You could do the same. Ah — I keep thinking of one more thing! Consider a #slimming group. Mrs Wife has had good results with Slimming World. I'm sure there are others that are equally good. All that ra-ra isn't for me, but she's neurotypical and it works well for her. Good luck! Let us know how you get on. #WeightLoss
