RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

MODERATORS
Teaching myself how to cook from scratch ingredients.
It allowed me to completely reform my diet, I could eat anything I wanted (on the condition I self-imposed that it had to be made by) and I lost 130 lb as a result.
I'm not saying it wasn't a lot of work, it was, but it was an investment in myself.
Now I am able, with no pre-planning, to look in a fridge and whip something up delicious in 30 minutes.
An accidental discovery through this diet reformation, was that I discovered I am intolerant to wheat and gluten! Not celiac, not allergic, but it provokes my autoimmune disorder.
I am now psoriasis free after being a terrible sufferer for almost three decades. Also my joint pain went away.
It has saved me a phenomenal amount of money, given me great body awareness. It's also expanded my food horizons.
