I've lost 80 + pounds of fat AND kept it off for the last 11 years.

And I did it by tracking my intake.

In the process, I learned a number of hacks and tips that will save you LOADS of time and energy when you're tracking your food.

Let's dive in, shall we? (A Thread...)

 1. Start with 'single macro foods' to keep things simple

What are 'single macro foods'?

Foods that are over 90% one macro, with only a few trace macros of the other 2.

Here are some examples:

Protein:

- Chicken/turkey breast
- Shrimp/scallops/crab meat
- White fish/cod/tilapia
- LEAN pork chops (NOT shoulder)
- 96/4 ground beef
- Fat Free Cottage Cheese
- Fat Free Greek Yogurt
- Whey protein shakes

Carbs:

- Rice
- Potatoes
- Fruit
- Veggies
- Pasta
- Bread
- Low fat ice cream/sorbet
Fats:

- Butter
- Olive/Coconut oil
- Creamy dressings

All of these foods have (almost) ALL of one macro. There might be a few straggler macros/calories, but you can ignore them to keep things simple.

Need a meal?

Choose one of each category, and viola, you're good to go.
But single macro foods make life so much easier, especially when you start.

You simply choose some foods, weigh or measure them out, and you're good to go.
2. Make added fats a byproduct of your meat choices

Once you get used to the single macro foods, you can begin to incorporate some fattier cuts of meat.

Things like salmon, ground sirloin or chuck, pork shoulder, ribeyes/steaks, etc.
Once you do this, you'll naturally have more fat in your diet. As such, there's no need to add extra fats - and they can add up quickly.

For the best results, and tracking ease, make your fat intake be a byproduct of your meat choices, and use extra fats sparingly, if at all.
3. Make a (delicious) meal ONCE, count the nutrition, and use it forever

Calorie tracking haters say it's a tedious chore.

But they're missing one thing: THE GOAL.

The GOAL of tracking your food is so that you don't HAVE to track your food.

Sounds counterintuitive, I know...
But proper portion sizes are a lost concept these days.

Our thinking is distorted - and everyone who starts tracking properly is SHOCKED by how little an actual portion size is.

Step 1 is awareness, always.
When you're counting, and you make a killer, healthy meal - SAVE IT!

Write it down and keep it in your 'rolodex' of awesome food options.

In the future, no need to count a thing - just break out your recipe and you're good to go.
Over time, you'll develop a list of breakfasts, lunches, and dinners that hit your numbers, are tasty, and you love.

And then, you're golden, and you don't have to track any longer.

NOBODY tracks food just to track their food.

They track food so they DON'T have to ever again
4. FORGET what your FitBit or Apple Watch says - use empirical data only

ANY 'calorie tracker' piece of tech is wildly inaccurate.

My FitBit regularly tells me I burn 4k calories. If I ate that many calories per day, I would gain weight QUICKLY.
Make a good estimate as to how many calories you burn each day. There's tons of estimators out there online.

Eat about that many calories each day, and see what happens to your weight over the course of 2-3 weeks.

If you're losing, great. If you're gaining, adjust as necessary.
But whatever you do, DO NOT trust the 'calorie burn' on your app.

The FIRST thing you should do if you get a My Fitness Pal app is to turn it OFF.

It's wrong.

Very wrong.

I've seen countless people make this mistake - DON'T be one of them.
5. Track ALL your food (every LBT)

An "LBT" is a lick, bite, or taste.

You need to track it ALL.

Yes, even condiments. You'd be surprised how quickly things like ketsup, barbecue sauce, and dressings can add up.

That handful of M&M's you ate?
You don't think those have calories?

It's a simple concept - if you eat it, you track it.

PERIOD.

Your kid's leftover food counts, too.

Sorry Mom and Dad...
Do you HAVE to track your food to lose fat?

Nope.

Do you HAVE to use your GPS when you're going on a road trip?

Nope.

But it sure as hell makes it a LOT easier when you do.

If you're 'just eating clean bro' and you're not getting proper results, it's time for a better way.
If you find yourself getting constant speeding tickets, maybe it's time to look at the speedometer...

It is said that the one who bears the dust thrown from the hoof of Gaumata on his head, as if taking a bath in the water of the teerth sthalam and getting rid of all sins.


Ved and all other Hindu scriptures venerate the cow. The Vedic dictionary, Nighantu, gives amongst other synonyms of 'Gau' [ or cow] the words 'Aghnya', 'Ahi', and 'Aditi'.

Yaska the vedic decoder and commentator on Nighantu, defines these as-

Aghnya —— the one that ought not to be killed
Ahi —— the one that must not be slaughtered.
Aditi —— the one that ought not to be cut into pieces.

These three names of cow signify that this is an animal which should not to be put to tortures. These words appear frequently throughout the Veda in context of the cow.

But in due course the falsehood of killing cows spread far and wide and they became even more deep rooted when western scholars with their half baked knowledge of Sanskrit transliterated these interpretations of commentaries of Sayanacharya ,

Srikanteshwara Temple,
#Nanjangud  #Karnatakatemples 🚩

Srikanteshwara Temple or
Nanjundeshwara Temple is a famous Shiva Temple located in Karnataka at the bank of river  Kapila. Temple is also called Varanasi of South. Nanjunda means one who has consumed poison.


Story is  related to the Samudra Mathanam when Paramashiva had to consume halahala.

Parashurama worshipped Mahadeva here to relieve himself from the curse of Mathru Hatya. While clearing the place to do poojas Parashurama's  axe hit the Shivalingam and it began bleeding, that


mark is still visible even today. Thus
it is also believed that Parashurama did Shiva Prathishta here

Sthala Puranam says that, once there was a demon named Keshi who disturbed the people in the area, after  getting blessing from Brahma Deva  and Mahavishnu. Mahadeva appeared


here and killed demon Keshi and blessed this place as Papa Vinashini. Whoever praying to Srikanteshwara or Nanjundeshwara, after bathing in the  Kabini River will be relieved from all sins.

Nanjundeshwaraya Namah
🙏🕉🙏

Read this. U may get it for free.
Short straddle :
What is ?? Sell an atm call and put.
Instrument: mostly bnf and nf.
Now there are versions of it.
1. Best version :
Enter around 9.15-20 and exit around 3.20. No adjustment nothing.
1/n.


If u r doing it on zero leverage(meaning u have full capital of around bnf's notional contract,i.e. 40000*25 = 10lacs), then u r most likely going to make better than fd or anything like that.
Simple rules : friday,monday, tuesday do for weekly. Wednesday and thrusday next week

So, gamma moves can't impact much.
Another better version of mahesh chander kaushik is to do it for monthly expiry.
Bigger premiums and never hav to worry about 200-300 points sudden moves.
2. 2nd version : have combined stoploss of premiums and re-entry criteria. Example :

Let say 40000 straddle is at 600. Sell at 600 and hav combined sl at 650. Many algos are providing this. U can even place stoploss in % terms. Like, if sold straddle at 400 and placed 10% sl, means if 440 combined premium touch, it will be stoploss.
Let say, in morning,

U sold straddle at 600 and it sl hit at 650. Now, u placed reentry at 600 with same sl. This time may be linear decay happens and u may cover morning's loss and make some profit.
3rd version : stoplosses at each leg and trail sl to cost type.
Example , 40000 straddle at 400.

Following @BAUDEGS I have experienced hateful and propagandist tweets time after time. I have been shocked that an academic community would be so reckless with their publications. So I did some research.
The question is:
Is this an official account for Bahcesehir Uni (Bau)?


Bahcesehir Uni, BAU has an official website https://t.co/ztzX6uj34V which links to their social media, leading to their Twitter account @Bahcesehir

BAU’s official Twitter account


BAU has many departments, which all have separate accounts. Nowhere among them did I find @BAUDEGS

The chorus of this song uses the shlokas taken from Sundarkand of Ramayana.

It is a series of Sanskrit shlokas recited by Jambavant to Hanuman to remind Him of his true potential.

1. धीवर प्रसार शौर्य भरा: The brave persevering one, your bravery is taking you forward.


2. उतसारा स्थिरा घम्भीरा: The one who is leaping higher and higher, who is firm and stable and seriously determined.

3. ुग्रामा असामा शौर्या भावा: He is strong, and without an equal in the ability/mentality to fight

4. रौद्रमा नवा भीतिर्मा: His anger will cause new fears in his foes.

5.विजिटरीपुरु धीरधारा, कलोथरा शिखरा कठोरा: This is a complex expression seen only in Indic language poetry. The poet is stating that Shivudu is experiencing the intensity of climbing a tough peak, and likening

it to the feeling in a hard battle, when you see your enemy defeated, and blood flowing like a rivulet. This is classical Veera rasa.

6.कुलकु थारथिलीथा गम्भीरा, जाया विराट वीरा: His rough body itself is like a sharp weapon (because he is determined to win). Hail this complete

hero of the world.

7.विलयगागनथाला भिकारा, गरज्जद्धरा गारा: The hero is destructive in the air/sky as well (because he can leap at an enemy from a great height). He can defeat the enemy (simply) with his fearsome roar of war.

MDZS is laden with buddhist references. As a South Asian person, and history buff, it is so interesting to see how Buddhism, which originated from India, migrated, flourished & changed in the context of China. Here's some research (🙏🏼 @starkjeon for CN insight + citations)

1. LWJ’s sword Bichen ‘is likely an abbreviation for the term 躲避红尘 (duǒ bì hóng chén), which can be translated as such: 躲避: shunning or hiding away from 红尘 (worldly affairs; which is a buddhist teaching.) (https://t.co/zF65W3roJe) (abbrev. TWX)

2. Sandu (三 毒), Jiang Cheng’s sword, refers to the three poisons (triviṣa) in Buddhism; desire (kāma-taṇhā), delusion (bhava-taṇhā) and hatred (vibhava-taṇhā).

These 3 poisons represent the roots of craving (tanha) and are the cause of Dukkha (suffering, pain) and thus result in rebirth.

Interesting that MXTX used this name for one of the characters who suffers, arguably, the worst of these three emotions.

3. The Qian kun purse “乾坤袋 (qián kūn dài) – can be called “Heaven and Earth” Pouch. In Buddhism, Maitreya (मैत्रेय) owns this to store items. It was believed that there was a mythical space inside the bag that could absorb the world.” (TWX)

Oh my Goodness!!!

I might have a panic attack due to excitement!!

Read this thread to the end...I just had an epiphany and my mind is blown. Actually, more than blown. More like OBLITERATED! This is the thing! This is the thing that will blow the entire thing out of the water!


Has this man been concealing his true identity?

Is this man a supposed 'dead' Seal Team Six soldier?

Witness protection to be kept safe until the right moment when all will be revealed?!

Who ELSE is alive that may have faked their death/gone into witness protection?


Were "golden tickets" inside the envelopes??


Are these "golden tickets" going to lead to their ultimate undoing?

Review crumbs on the board re: 'gold'.

The entire discussion around Facebook’s disclosures of what happened in 2016 is very frustrating. No exec stopped any investigations, but there were a lot of heated discussions about what to publish and when.


In the spring and summer of 2016, as reported by the Times, activity we traced to GRU was reported to the FBI. This was the standard model of interaction companies used for nation-state attacks against likely US targeted.

In the Spring of 2017, after a deep dive into the Fake News phenomena, the security team wanted to publish an update that covered what we had learned. At this point, we didn’t have any advertising content or the big IRA cluster, but we did know about the GRU model.

This report when through dozens of edits as different equities were represented. I did not have any meetings with Sheryl on the paper, but I can’t speak to whether she was in the loop with my higher-ups.

In the end, the difficult question of attribution was settled by us pointing to the DNI report instead of saying Russia or GRU directly. In my pre-briefs with members of Congress, I made it clear that we believed this action was GRU.
