Jesus .... the amount of sugar and sodium in that one biscuit for that little guy would be enough to give it instant diabetes just before giving it a heart attack

Even the human ones are not great for humans ... I used to love them as a kid and I cringe when I think about gobbling them up knowing now how loaded they were with sugar and salt. I still love them and would eat ten pounds of them if I chose to .... but they're terribly unhealthy.

Yeah, I need to pivot to stress exercising.

[-] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 4 days ago

The two extremes here seem to be 'eat binge trash' and 'starve' with nothong in between.

Am i the only one who binges on spinach and fruit and nuts?

[-] rmuk@feddit.uk 4 points 4 days ago

Oh, yeah, fruit and nut for sure. I can polish off a few at a time.

Thanks; i really needed to feel more alienated. You're such a friend.

[-] cacti@ani.social 1 points 4 days ago

I have binged on nuts as well, but some nuts are also very calorie-dense and can cause weight gain too.

They can! But those calories arent empty.

[-] Iapetus@slrpnk.net 1 points 4 days ago

You're not alone. I stress binge on melons (or apples, depending on the season), popcorn and miso soup full of leafy veg and rice noodles.

That last one sounds so good right now.

[-] Beebabe@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago

Yeah I just made a tube of cinnamon rolls guess I have to eat them all now

This is why you should get to know your neighbors.

Not for disaster resiliency.

Not to ward off the hyperalienation of late neoliberal capitalism.

Not to stand stronger against repression.

To pawn off extra snacks you made too many of and avoid overeating.

On the other hand it's just a good way to get to know your neighbours. I baked too many sweets a while back and shared them around and now they know me better and, I believe, are generally more fond of me. So win win, I get better relations with them and they get sweets :3

Bribery; the way to weight loss?

[-] affiliate@lemmy.world 11 points 5 days ago

i have brute forced this by not buying any kinds of snacks or sweets from the grocery store. so if i want to eat something i have to either go hungry or make a real food. (usually i end up doing both)

[-] Katana314@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

One alternative I’ve suggested is that you can have cookies and snacks, but you have to bake them yourself. Puts some effort and friction on the task.

[-] Prok@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

I'll happily bake 2 dozen cookies today to eat them all in one sitting tomorrow...

[-] Biyoo 4 points 4 days ago

I did the same, lost 30 pounds since. I just don't have the mental strength to avoid snacks when I'm anxious, stressed or depressed. It's the only thing that worked for me.

[-] affiliate@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

i’m the same way, and after a while i’ve come to appreciate feeling like i don’t need the strength: if i set up my environment properly then eating healthy is one less thing i have to worry about, and i can use the leftover mental strength for other things.

[-] Jyek@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 days ago

Me stressing about eating healthier

[-] JadenSmith@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 days ago

I ate an extra large pizza to myself yesterday...

I'm still normal weight it was just a night, however stress eating is no joke...

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Aren't those strawberry? Strawberry = fruit, last time I checked?

[-] HEXN3T 6 points 5 days ago

This but the opposite for me:

"I need to start eating more"

Slightest amount of stress:

[Starvation]

[-] Landless2029@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

This is also me but then I go for the chocolate...

Less real food more junk food. Snacks for dinner. Ive had water and candy today (I don't buy soda or it would be that). Last "meal" was a sandwich like 18 hours ago.

[-] atocci@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago

My solution has been D I E T P E P S I

[-] Kyle_The_G@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

I can't eat at all when I get stressed but still feel like shit

[-] perishthethought@piefed.social 4 points 5 days ago

I should probably remove the bag of Lemonade Rings (gummys) from my desk, eh.
