What is your New Years resolution?
(programming.dev)
3840x2160
I don’t set New Year-specific goals anymore since I find that being honest with myself about efforts from any starting point is more helpful than promising to make significant life changes at a specific date. That being said, my general goals are:
- Be more involved in community and humanitarian events
- Put on more muscle
- Set aside a large chunk of my income every month for my future plans
- Make opportunities to have new experiences
I honestly just wait to die. It's fucked I have 40+ years left of this.
Cheer up. There's a chance you could get a terminal illness.
Get back to my pre-COVID weight. Thankfully I just moved to a new place with a gym literally across the street.
More so than a gym, weight loss happens in the kitchen. Smaller portion sizes and healthier options. A calories deficit is the only way to lose weight. And don't think of it as a "diet"... It's a lifestyle change.
Forty pounds and counting. Good luck!
I didn't even have a resolution last year.
I guess this years resolution is just:
Don't kms, try to survive as long as possible
Never forgot those who have hurt me, I need live long enough to watch their demise
Don’t kms, try to survive as long as possible
Yeah, like same here lol.
I hope you both stick with us if only for spite Fuck those haters Be around to rub it their ugly faces
I’m going semi-vegan? I don’t know if there’s a word for it.
I cheated and started a few weeks ago, but from now on I’m not buying any more animal product although I’ll make exceptions for already bought food that would otherwise go to waste.
I've been vegetarian for almost 10 years, but then I got kids and we didn't want to make separate dinner each night, so now I also eat wild game, e.g. pheasants, red deer, wild ducks, etc. Am I just a regular carnivore or does there exist a word for my weird ass choice?
I still haven't eating any meat from conventional or organic farms for more than 10 years.
My parents became vegetarian when I was 3 and so, I became vegetarian myself. They are now occasionally white meat felxitarians but I've remained vegetarian all my life. Genunine question, (I'm not trying to be an ah here) if the diet was good enough for you why not for your kids? I still managed to grow to be 6'3'' tall with that diet after all. XD
I think it's 1000's times better to eat wild game than industrial farm. Kudos to you! Meat eating is still meat eating at the end of the day, but presuming you get your veggies in you'd be an omnivore :P
Of course, you are right, omnivore. I still get my veggies, haha. My wife never became a vegetarian, and I'm the only vegetarian in our extended family, so I'm minority here and I didn't really wanted to take the fight. Also, I try to hide the fact that I don't eat industrial meat, from my kids. I don't want to influence them in anyway, and if they ever want to become vegetarian, I hope it's not because of my influence but because of their own reasons, if that makes sense.
We have an overpopulation of red deer in our local area. I'm buying it from a local estate and they only have the stock they have. If a product is sold out, it's sold out until the hunting season begins again. I actually don't mind that in any way. I absolutely hate industrial farming, but I don't think there's anything wrong with regulation of wildlife, and it helps in preserving biodiversity.
Tons of wildlife meat goes to waste each year in my country, and it's instead used for other purposes, e.g. Fertilizer.
Besides that, for those who want to eat meat, it's seems illogical to me, not eating the meat we have at hand before starting to buy meat from industrial farms. I believe it tastes better in every way than what you get from industrial farms.
