I moved from gmail to Apple mail. I know this is not ideal for privacy but it is better than 2 parties having access to my data.
I want to move to a more privacy focused provider but I get unlimited aliases with iCloud+ at very cheap.
That is not how calories work. Everything has calories - fat, protein, carbs. If you eat more calories than you can burn, you will gain weight in the form of fat or muscle (if you exercise).
Restricting carbs might help you in eating less overall but not eating carbs is not the cause of your weight loss.
This is so cute
