  • Mid-40s MtF. I went from 210 to 185 lbs after going gluten free a few years ago. Recently, after cutting out a lot of processed foods and artificial sugars (HFCS and the like), I now hover around 170-175. I avoid most gluten-free replacements (breads, pizza, pasta) as I’m gluten-intolerant (not full-blown Celiac’s) and it’s a crap shoot if it makes me sick or not. I also stay away from all fast food and most junk food (I still treat myself on occasion, curse you Mt. Dew!).

    I eat pretty healthy at home, preferring to cook from scratch, and staying away from fried anything. Avocados are my new crack: I eat at least 3-4 a week. If I have to eat out, I’m usually getting sushi or hitting up Core Life (their tuna poke bowl is fucking amazing, small bowl is under 400 calories). And, while exercise helps, changing my diet has been pivotal in improving my health, both physical and mentally.











  • There are always differing opinions in existence. You have yours, I have mine. Which are correct, which are false? The real answer is that they’re all correct AND incorrect at the same time, because everyone is subject to their own personal experiences and points of view.

    From an existential understanding (perhaps spiritual), the universe manifests in all forms, in all times, in all spaces, simply to experience existence as throughly as possible to exhaust all possibilities through various combinations and permutations. If one could equate this to “God” or some manifestation of the divine reality, then regardless of bias, they are all necessary for existence.

    So, it’s very simple. Whether someone is right or wrong holds no meaning, only that you accept it, because whether or not you agree, it still exists and therefore is fundamental to the entirety of existence.

    At least, that’s my opinion. You may think or believe differently, and that’s okay.
