    I had considered doing this about 3 years ago. I purchased a 1986 Vixen 21TD (a BMW diesel powered, 5 speed motorhome, build specifically as a motorhome, and gets 30mpg). Ultimatel…

    I think it's important to call out that it's actually constantly increasing amount to increase the results. As patients lose weight, they need to eat fewer and fewer calories to co…

    This. Anecdotally, I lost 130lbs in 1 year, and have now lost 140lbs (1 year 4 months). Initially, I was 330lbs and lost weight at a rate of 3.5lbs per week. Slowly decreasing weig…

    I actually own a studio that does just this. I think that for a lot of businesses, they can hire internal developers prematurely before they have a clear vision of the product that…

    Over the past 11 months, I've lost 122lbs, from 330lbs to 208lbs. (May 30, 2023 - Today) For the first 2 months, cardio was not part of it. Really focusing on diet, reintroducing m…

    I was diagnosed with ADHD last year, at 31 years old. It made so much sense. The idea of your "future self" is actually what helped me improve my ability to form habits. "If I do X…

    See also, Hal Hershfield's "Your Future Self". I recently made a few major changes to my life that I felt were my responsibilities as a founder. Mainly, taking care of my health. I…
