True dat.

You'll have a satisfied feeling that you aren't fat and lazy.

And that you are making the world a better place.

I lost 5 lbs in the first week. 5 more and I can stop punching myself in the stomach to reduce desire to stuff myself.

I lost 5 kg in a month without punching myself in the stomach (or at all).

[Kidlicious]

Nice. I think a lb is more though. Use American units in this thread please.

[Aeson]

1 kg = 2.2 lbs

[N35t0r]

So far, I've only resorted to not eating like a pig. Trying to chew more and stop eating when I'm no longer hungry.

I should try to start exercising as well.

[Kidlicious]

Eat more high fiber foods. They fill you up.

[N35t0r]

Changing my diet is something I'm not planning on doing just yet.

NPR had a piece about what people who live to really old age eat, we are talking about folks who live over 110 years of age. It is mostly a plant based diet and both the fats and meats they do eat tend to be high in omega 3 fatty acids. They also tend to eat both lots of beans and a wide variety of beans.

Supposedly beans are not only good for you but they are also high in both fiber and protein plus beneficial gut bacteria love them. They said gut bacteria are little known but make a huge difference towards health; so much so that doctors now do poop transplants on obese patients and supposedly just getting the right critters in your gut can result in weight lose.

[ZEE]

OERDIN IS FAT LOL!

[Aeson]

Beans, beans, the musical fruit
The more you eat, the more you toot
The more you toot, the better you feel
So lets eat beans for every meal!

[Kidlicious]

I really can't do beans much. They say you get used to them but I never do.

[N35t0r]

I love beans

I don't eat them often, since it's not common at all here.
