Hey there, I’m Lavanda Michelle, and on my weight loss journey, I’ve been intrigued by intermittent fasting. It’s really caught on as a way for folks to drop pounds, boost health, and make eating simpler. One method that’s stood out to me is the 16/8 method—it’s super straightforward and it works. In this blog post, I’ll break down what the 16/8 method is all about, its perks, how to give it a…

Dungeon Meshi modern au where both Laois and Falin are food vloggers. Laois is always travelling to remote areas and cultures to try the most "extreme" foods and bring them to light. He's known as the guy who will drink blood and slam a still wriggling bug just to comment on it's nutty flavor. Meanwhile Falin is visiting long-standing eateries and sharing the stories behind local cuisine.

Nobody actually puts together they're siblings (in part due to wildly different viewerbases) until Falin in one video mentions how she enjoys eating insects and the comment section is full of folks asking her to "collab with the bug guy". Her very next video is her and Laois smiling infront of a mukbang style platter of insects and she introduces him as her brother.

I just want to add a link to the study that's been going around, causing a lot of the recent concern about intermittent fasting, and which is mentioned in the podcast:

To be clear, the findings are not nearly as definitive as that headline makes it sound (one of the big issues with science journalism in general, alas...). The study authors are very clear that it's a preliminary study, self-reported data about food and eating habits is deeply unreliable, and without further corroboration, all they've found so far is a correlational between intermittent fasting and certain health outcomes. Also: as I understand it, it's a poster presentation, not a peer-reviewed article (yet).

Still, this isn't a wild flight of fancy based on a handful of anecdotes, it's a survey of 20000 people across many years.

I don't know enough about the field (and haven't read this in enough depth) to offer a real opinion on this issue either way. But I did want to add the link because the recent uptick in concern isn't just a bunch of people spreading baseless panic. There's some real questions being raised as to at least the efficacy, if not the risks of intermittent fasting. Much more research is needed to say anything definitive (as the study's authors emphasize), but this shouldn't be dismissed completely offhand, either.

So just... stay informed and be gentle and kind with yourself and each other, whatever your personal choices regarding food and health may be.

(One thing I will give a bit of my personal opinion about, though: please, just... be careful with this stuff if you're even remotely prone to disordered eating patterns. Please. I'm not saying "intermittent fasting is an eating disorder in disguise", it's not. Definitely not for everyone, probably not for the majority of practitioners. But I don't think anyone can deny that it can be slippery slope or relapse trigger if you're at risk for disordered eating to begin with. So just... be kind to yourself. You are worthy of love and respect, no matter your size or health status.)

the way that intermittent fasting is being linked to health problems and heart disease...i'm not going to pretend this is an "i told you so" moment because i was completely taken in by all this at its peak and did it myself!! but i hope it's dawning on everyone that adhering to any kind of eating pattern where you're denying your actual hunger is a fucking awful way to live. our bodies work the way they do for a reason...

On average, what is the total MONTHLY amount that you spend on dining out*?

*(This doesn't only count going out to restaurants, but also stuff like picking up fast food to bring home, getting a coffee on the way to work, getting a premade sandwich from a grocery store deli during lunch, buying a quick snack from a convenience store or food cart whilst walking somewhere, ordering a pizza or any other food to be delivered to your home, etc.)

*(If you often dine out in groups/as a household: calculate and divide the costs so that you get a Per Person average. This is for YOU individually, NOT the total household/group costs)

(I'm sure polls similar to this have been made before (very common topic), I just haven't personally seen one that I can remember, so, I was curious to do my own! I was discussing this with a group of people today and it was very interesting to see how widely the number varied between individuals. :0c )

(Reblog for bigger sample size if you can, and feel free to explain your answer in tags if there's anything extra to add!)

I think the most baffling thing about the Tulpar as a vessel to me is the fact that the ship really did only have a one way communication system.

I know it was cheap but even the most basic of vessels regarding major transport would have some way, shape or form for outside communication. Not only that but there was absolutely no form of innate emergency signal to show they may have been offline or in trouble despite clearly having a system to dock credits if they went off course. It's another factor that really shows that bad situations are made to get worse by design. One person who is required to relay all information to the crew and make all the choices without feedback. No way to update or call for help in case of a dire situation. No way to inform of inner personal conflicts and acquire procedures accordingly.

It really is like they are all in some sort of fucked up solitary confinement. They have their own world with strict roles that are meaningless in the end, as long as the cargo makes it, it doesn't matter what happens on that ship to the company. They don't want to hear anything and will come to conclusions on what happened based on how much pay they can withhold from the workers. Even what they do send is short, sterile and corporate to the extent it was likely written and sent out with a command by some random unmanned computer in an office.

There's something to be said about how unfair it is to force absolute power and control onto one person when you as an entity could do so much more to offload it but I've said it many times before so I won't again.

Hi, I’m Lavanda Michelle, and as part of my weight loss journey, I’ve been diving into the world of intermittent fasting (IF). Lately, IF has become a go-to strategy for shedding pounds, boosting health, and even living longer. It’s not just a fad—it’s a lifestyle with deep roots in ancient practices that offers real benefits when you do it right. In this post, I’ll explore the science behind…

My ARFID gives me a very hard time eating, but even if my brain is being very particular there's usually something I can eat. Whether anything that's actually available is that something is a different matter entirely, but very rarely does my brain go "NO! NO FOOD IN MOUTH! NOTHING IN MOUTH! ALL FOOD BAD!"

But when it does happen. It is. Very. Frustrating! To say the least.

Like right now.

God-fucking-damnit

i feel like L with an eating disorder is a somewhat niche but not uncommon headcanon & when this is so i almost always see this represented as bulimia. which tbc i do not object to. see my own fic for details. however the way he eats is also incredibly classic for people with restrictive eating disorder so this is often how i see him.

Ngl I'm super curious about your early feedism experiences. Everyone has those moments in childhood that made them feel very odd at the time but they didn't realize why until later.

What were some examples of this for you??

ohhh i had so many 😭😭 when i was super young, any time i overate (i always made an attempt to) i was just captivated by my belly and the way it pushed out and got super round. i used to fantasize about eating whole cakes?? like as a 9 year old

i’ve known i’m a feedee since middle school. once i realized that, my weight started to climb.. i’ve been over 200lbs since i was 14. i’ve been “weird” around food for forever; i always wanted more and i would do anything to get it.

my parents obviously knew something was up and were insane MS-HS, they’d check my backpack for wrappers and extra food and i’d get into huge trouble if i wasn’t super careful. wasn’t allowed to do after school things if it involved food (like, i couldn’t go to sonic with my friends before a concert or something)

unfortunately for them, i’m a cow at heart and can be very sneaky. the highest weight i got before graduating was around 225. in college not only was it COVID, but i finally had freedom… which explains the 50lb gain freshman year :))
