I've dreamt of doing something that exciting for a while now, how did you manage to keep your heart from beating too fast?

I just finished watching the Sopranos from start to finish. Thank you HBO for showing it for free.
Now I will catch upon other shows I watch and haven't for the last two weeks and then find another show to binge.

Even if I ate 1500 calories a day I would lose weight. When I lost weight years ago, all I did was count calories. I don't cut anything completely and always make sure I get my daily dose of junk. I do walk and get up and down a lot and sometimes my husband and I will take walks that last for hours just because. Most people have zero clue as to how many calories they are consuming regularly.

One of my jobs they are feeding them so much all day and all night that they will all need to go on a diet after this. Ha.

My goal this weekend (besides going to work for one day):
-Get more work done on my paper for class
-Watch another episode of The Sopranos
-Watch one movie that is new to me
It's confusing because there's so much conflicting information about breakfast and intermittent fasting is such a big thing now. I've come to be firmly in the eat breakfast camp after years of thinking a light or no breakfast was better, but it's off topic so I'll leave it at that. I think it's hard to count calories unless you're not eating much to begin with, although with the lockdown I guess a lot of us have more time to figure it out if we want to. I know people who function on very little food, but I'm sure it's not a coincidence that they've been doing calorie restriction diets for a long time.

Lucky you that you haven't watched the Sopranos yet! It's a great (and long) series to binge watch when you're inside.

It's different for every body maybe ? Not everyone processes sugars the same or has the same metabolism. What works for you works for you.

Well you're right. I wish I had changed the way I ate a long time ago so if I'm preachy it's rooted in regret. I think eating big meals at night, especially with too many simple carbs, helps to mess up some people's ability to process sugar normally. I've had family members suffer a lot of complications from diabetes and my ability to process sugar could be better now so I'm kind of focused on it.

Yikes you missed the whole premise if you didn't see season 1. Well worth it.
