I swear to god, my mental health, self esteem, and confidence are flying to heights not seen since I graduated high school. That may be a low bar to clear, but I cleared it! I still want to lose another 30 pounds to reach my goal weight, but already I no longer feel ashamed when I look at myself naked in the mirror.

      20 lbs in two months is roughly 2.5 lbs per week. 1 lb is about 3500 calories, so losing 2.5 lbs per week requires a deficit of 8,750 calories per week, or 1,250 per day. Certainly very difficult and was likely a big lifestyle change, so kudos to cosecantphi for making the effort

      Definitely not, a single gram of antimatter would, with one gram of matter, produce 43,000,000,000 calories.
