thank you alice oseman for teaching me how to be platonically in love. i cannot express how many beautiful friendships i've ruined just because i had never realized that feelings so strong could still be platonic. i love being platonically in love. i love being able to admit that i'll never want a romantic relationship with someone while still being able to feel the absolute joy of unconditionally loving every part of a person. i love you alice oseman for showing me friendships that feel like falling in love so that i don't have to keep on pretending to feel something i don't.

Man some dog folk will really take the basic question asked by vet techs: “what do you feed?” as “my vet is trying to SELL me on this other garbage food!!11”. Really bothers me.

NEVER SAY NO TO PIZZA AGAIN

Growing up we had pizza at least once a week. My father was born and raised in Brooklyn and man, did he love his pizza. He would call home every Thursday and ask, “did your mother cook?” to which I would always sarcastically reply “of course not, it’s pizza night!” and then he would say “call up Dickie Dees, order a large pie with extra cheese and pepperoni, well done. Tell them ‘Jimmy’ will be there in ten minutes.” Some of my favorite memories with my dad include us either ordering pizza and watching WWE, or stopping at random hole in the wall pizza joints to see what they were about.

I’ll never forget, two weeks after getting my tonsils removed my mother got called into work for an emergency meeting and my father was responsible for feeding my siblings and I dinner that night. Guess what he ordered?

A large, extra cheese and pepperoni pie, well done from Dickie Dee’s in Newark, NJ.

The problem? I couldn’t eat solid foods yet!

Did that stop me? NOPE. My father and I sat there and cut up two slices of pizza into the tiniest, bite size pieces and I chewed them up until they were soft enough to swallow. It may have taken me thirty minutes to eat two slices of pizza, but Dad didn’t raise a quitter 💪🏽

When I decided to start losing weight as an adult, I knew I would never be successful if my meals were limited to baked chicken and broccoli or boring Cesar salads.

That’s when I learned about flexible dieting and calories in VS calories out.

For years, the media has glorified weight pills, surgeries, or overly restrictive diets for weight loss. I’m living proof that you can lose weight without giving up your favorite foods (or getting surgeries that restrict your diet for the rest of your life anyways).

I’ve been counting calories for the last two years, and I’m watching the pounds shed off week by week. I recommend everyone try this method at least once and try to do it for three months to give yourself time to see results.

The first thing you need to do is calculate how many calories you should be consuming. I recommend using this website to do that. These are going to be your maintenance calories. In order to lose weight, you need to be in a calorie deficit (meaning you need to eat less calories than you burn.) If you’re just starting out, I recommend a 3-400 deficit.

So let’s say your maintenance calories are 2400 calories per day. Subtract 400 from that, and you have the amount of calories you should be eating in a deficit, 2000 calories. I like to think about these calories as dollars (bare with me)

So let’s say you have $2000 (or 2000 calories). How you chose to spend those $2000 is completely up to you.

If you have a nice, low calorie breakfast and you want to go to McDonalds for lunch and order a Big Mac with large fries, a large coke and an apple pie go for it. Just remember that you still need to be within the 2000 calorie range in order to see results. So if you had that nice, low calorie breakfast, and then you ordered everything off the dollar menu at McDonalds for lunch, chances are you’re going to have to make some sacrifices and eat that boring old cesar salad for dinner.

It all comes down to calories in VS calories out.

With all that being said, there are plenty of ways you can make some of your favorite meals at home for half the calories without sacrificing flavors. One of the ways I’m able to eat pizza three times a week while losing weight is by making my own at home! As promised in my previous post, I’ll walk you through the recipe and leave the macros below!

Ingredients

1 Cup of self rising flour (this is super important!)

¾ Cup of Non-fat plain Greek yogurt

¼ cup of your favorite pizza sauce (homemade is best!)

56g of low fat or fat free mozzarella cheese

17g of turkey pepperoni (optional)

4g salt

4g garlic powder

Preheat your oven to 420 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Start by adding ¾ cup of your yogurt to a bowl, along with the salt and garlic powder. You can feel free to add whatever seasonings you’d like here, but I feel like the salt and garlic give the dough that classic NYC pizza dough flavor. Add in ¼ cup of flour at a time and stir until combined. If you have a stand mixer, use your dough hook to make this part a little easier on yourself. If not, a wooden spoon is fine! I tend to use a little less than a full cup of flour, but I keep the remaining to the side to sprinkle on the counter while kneading/rolling out the dough.

Once your dough comes together and is still a little tacky, flour your work space and start rolling out that pizza dough to your designed shape and thickness. Place the dough on a nonstick oven safe pan (I got my 10” pizza pans at Big Lots on sale for ten cents!! Check your local discount stores’ sale sections!) and place in your preheated oven for ten to fifteen minutes. It is important to cook the dough before adding any sauce or toppings so it can cook evenly. Once the dough starts to rise a bit, remove from the oven and start adding your toppings.

I like to use homemade sauce because it just taste the best in my opinion, but you can use whatever you’d like! Keep in mind that the calories will differ depending on what brand you use.

Once you have your pizza assembled, place it back into the oven for an additional 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. I like to spray the crust with a little bit of cooking spray for that beautiful golden brown color!

Take the pizza out of the oven and allow to cool for 3-5 minutes before cutting. Slice your pizza into 6-8 slices and enjoy!

If you follow these instructions to the T, you will have an entire pizza that is only 620calories, 2.3g fat, 102g carbs and 48g protein!

Give this recipe a shot and let me know how you like it!

Please stop using the word "saccharine" in your writing when you want to convey genuine sweetness. It's supposed to mean overly sweet, falsely sweet, it's chemical and phony sweet that leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Not the natural effortless sweetness of honey, but the phony performative sweetness of low calorie gum. It's someone who's only being sweet to manipulate you into thinking they're something they're not.

hi will!

I'm here for the ask game!!

🌟🌌

(for whichever selfship(s) you wanna answer them!)

who's the tease in the relationship ?

oh, for me and bakugou, definitely me LOL though i mostly do it because it catches him off guard and i love to see it akfbdial and it makes me laugh when his face gets red and he rolls his eyes at me 😌

what was your first date like ?

OH FUN. HMM. i think our first date is not intentional alfndjslal or at least — not in the sense that it's planned. we meet because of his job at the agency and one day we're leaving at the same time and i've been mentioning this place down the street that serves pretty decent carnitas tacos, that has good salsa, and we're both outside on the sidewalk, about to part ways, and then he says,

"well," with his hands in the pocket of his hoodie, cheeks turning rosy under the dim street lamp, "y'gonna show me this place or what ??"

and i'm literally SO OBLIVIOUS that i don't even pick up that this is a thing, at all. i'm just thinking to myself, "oh, how fun that he wants to hang out :)" AKGBGHWKA no clue AT ALL. which is good, because then i make less of an idiot of myself during dinner since i'm not worried about making an idiot of myself LOL he likes the salsa because it's spicy and what we don't eat with the chips, he puts on all of his food, and i don't realize that maybe, JUST MAYBE this is something more than it is until he asks for a sip of my margarita akfjdkaka

because what makes it so 🥴🥴🥴 is that he doesn't pick up the glass after i slide it to the middle of the table, he just leans down and drinks from my same straw and looks up at my from under his lashes and HE'S SO CUTE AKFBSJSHAKAL and then i probably do something stupid like knock my water over or something because i'm a CHRONIC SPILLER and now i'm really nervous LOL

🪻 self-ship game 🦋

Thinking a lot about how diet culture has led to this cultural landscape of people mocking cooking content creators for using too much oil when they make large batches of salad dressing or confit. And like you have to sit here and wonder what these people are going through in their own food journey if they think someone is sitting down and drinking three cups of salad dressing (made with 1 cup of olive oil) in a single sitting. Or, for that matter, just fucking drinking down the garlic confit. Homemade mayo? Made with olive oil? Unimaginable, that's clearly ridiculously unhealthy, unlike grocery store mayo. Like... I'm forced to imagine that these people don't make anything ever and so have literally no concept of how it works because otherwise I have to imagine how fucking awful some of the things these people are feeding to their families must be.

Like yeah, eating too much olive oil absolutely is bad for you, but you should probably critically engage with why you're so terrified of the stuff before you start trying to police what other people (whose health you literally know nothing about) are eating.

Royal Canin Hypoallergenic Dry & Wet Dog Food Review - The Dog Nutritionist

Allergies issues step from a unique gut microbiome, and it's ability to deal with non-hazardous things, like grass, chicken, or dust.

By nourishing the gut, you can reduce sensitivity and therefore improve your dog's condition.

However, using a highly processed food, not fresh natural foods, reduces the effectiveness of the therapy.

Not to mention that processed foods do contribute to cancer…

If you want the best for your dog, which you. You don't want expensive vet bills or to be buying overpriced food, learn how to create a simple fresh food diet that works for them.
