    The best weight loss is the kind that you keep off. If you can lose 15 more pounds doing what you're doing, that's great, but even if you just maintain those 15 pounds that are already off, that's still a great victory!

        Roasted veggies rock. You can toss them in and just set a timer to check on them/toss them around while you work on another part of the meal.

        ricing the cauliflower is just a texture thing that makes it more similar to rice for a fried rice type thing but with cauliflower instead of rice

        but you need a ricer for it (but you can also use it to rice potatoes and... maybe other things!)

          but you need a ricer for it

          Weirdly enough, riced cauliflower doesn't need a ricer. If you have a food processor, you can just pulse it with a standard blade until its all rice-y. You can also use the cheese grater attachment, or if you don't have a food processor, the big holes on a box grater also work great.

    Oh on the cauliflower tip, roast them in the oven and then toss them with some tahini and chili crisp. It's fuckin awesome.

      With whole grains it’s a double effect bc not only are you eating something great for you, you replace something terrible for you (white grains)

    Dancing is such fun exercise. For a time when I was in university I used to dance before I left for class for a bit to get hyped and it was so energizing and affirming.

    Congratulations! I'm sad to hear that you're scared of the gym. If not the gym, I have a personal bias against bodyweight exercise and prefer that it's supplemented with some kind of resistance training

    Can I ask what you dislike about the gym?

            You would get some. You'd have to get creative with them in order to see meaningful muscle gain. I know if I hadn't just watched an hour of YouTube, I could have used them for mobility training. I have these stiff shoulders that I mean to stretch out with bands, a towel, or yoga so I stop being prone to neck injury. I would be surprised if you could get a full workout with them. In my eyes they seem good for supplementing another athletic pursuit like a sport or body building.

      personal bias against bodyweight exercise

      Could I ask what creates this bias? I've been getting into doing basic bodyweight exercises with my partner and it has really helped us actually get moving.

        I think it takes longer to get the same results. My understanding of strength and conditioning comes from an orthodoxy about progressive overload. In essence, if you give your body the fuel (enough calories + protein), you lift heavier things, and you rest then you build muscle. I have some references from unscrupulous places where one might typically get bodybuilding information from that show an outsized amount of time spent to get mediocre results.

        Show

        This is video of a person who, though he is using resistance, the high volume training did not afford him the progress he wanted [1]. Sure, there are people who are training specifically to do something out of the ordinary with their body (muscle ups, pistol squats, etc.) [2], but for anyone who wants to lose weight or gain weight, I don't think it's the move. I think the exception gets a nice looking body doing calisthenics versus the competent getting a nice looking body doing progressive overload. If I wanted to change my body, I'd do resistance training. If I needed endurance, I would do triathlete stuff. If I needed agility, that's when calisthenic, isometric, and plyometric movements become part of a regimen that probably included the other two. I'd only ever want agility to supplement sports training.

        But again, that's explaining my personal bias - not advice. If you're like, "but WDYMP! I want to be a better tennis player!" then you shouldn't follow my lead.
