  • You should go to your doctor so they’ll run some tests. It could be something medical and not just your diet and exercise. Plus you’ll get a baseline to compare later.

    Write down what you actually eat in a day and look up roughly how many calories it is in total. You can search ‘chicken calories’ and there are websites that will tell you how many in say 100g of chicken breast or thigh. You can use those sites to look up calories for each food item. Sometimes we don’t realize how much we actually eat. Or It could be a gland or hormonal problem which again needs medical attention.

    If you’re eating high carb, you can be building visceral fat. beer is just fermented bread. If you’ve been eating high carb, cut down to 100g of carbs per day or less. For me just cutting out the rice and making sure I had some sauce, salsa, etc to make sure the dish isn’t dry worked for me. I tried to stay closer to 50g of carbs per day, but unless you want to be a robot and eat the same dishes for 6 to 12 months, use it more as a guide line than a hard rule.

    Since your lowering your carbs, you can raise your protein and fat to feel full. No rice, bread, pasta will make your plate looks sad and empty. Fill it with veggies. I always sautee my veggies.

    As you lower your visceral fat, you’ll sleep better, which lowers your stress, which lowers your accumulation of visceral fat, which makes you sleep better, in a positive feed back loop which will give you energy and you can start taking walks. Which adds more positive feed back…

    TL;DR go to your doc. Eat more protein and veg. very little rice, pasta, bread. Try it for a month and see if you feel better






  • It’s because it goes from tiny bespoke samples for testing, then confirm it’s actually what scientists actually think is happening, then R&D to scale up, then figuring out how to make it profitable. After all that work, if it’s not profitable, it doesn’t get made.

    Just remember those old gen rechargeable double A batteries. After like 3 to 6 months they wouldn’t charge well and you constantly had to switch batteries after half a day.

    Like these:

    Now we just buy new phones when the battery doesn’t last as long. That’s all in about 20 years. This stuff is exciting but I also wish shit was faster just to see it in my lifetime.

    Can’t wait to be growing vegetables with an automated system powered by solar power and my loyal robotic attack dog/pack mule.
