    I'd highly recommend not skipping meals even if they are suboptimal. It depends a bit on how your body and psyche work, but skipping meals will plummet your blood sugar levels and can easily lead to binge eating episodes (it did for me). If you can get some easy snacks/meals in your pantry/freezer that you can always get easily that will help loads (make a little list for yourself, for me canned pineapple without sugar/syrup is a low effort/energy, healthy snack). It's not about perfection, it's about doing better❤

    I can't do all the random diets, it never works but the last few months I have been eating in a deficit for my body which is still 1800 cals and upped my protein to at least 100 g a day and more fiber, also portion control and I don't eat diet foods unless I like them. I have lost 17 pounds. Some days it's hard as I just want to snack, but having extra protein in my meals are helping. Your dogs are so cute!

    The other thing I do is ask for a box with dinner and put half away right away.

    Thank you so much for videos and updates ,not sure if I’m being silly or not but still a little confused as when I download audible narration to listen to it sounds like a computer reading rather than a person is that right ? or is it supposed to be like that ?, i was told doing it like this is just a cheaper was of getting audio book but is exactly the same .

    • @TheReadingandWritingLife
      @TheReadingandWritingLife 2 дні тому

      Originally, the books were all audible books read by real voice actors. However, I've noticed that writers can authorize audio versions that are done with the computer voice, and now those are popping up as well. I think that kind of audio is listed as another type, but I'm not sure what it's called. Sorry you've had bad experiences with it. I hope you can find an audio version that is done by voice actors and not something that sounds like a computer.

    Trisha Leigh has a series called The Last Year and each of the four books is set in a different season if I’m not mistaken (I haven’t read them yet but they’re on my TBR). Is a YA Sci-fi about aliens that conquered earth and enslave humanity through aggressive mind control. The first book is called Whispers in Autumn, the 2nd book is Winter Omens, the 3rd books is Betrayals in Spring and the final book is called Summer Ruins.

    How dare you EA to miss with Amanda's schedule? 😂 At this pont, we better get a good sarcastic laugh about this, I do wonder why they don't test it with all packs, and I truly think is safer (and also cheaper) for them to release it and wait for all player to send their free feedback to them, they know at the end we just want to play the game so we do free work for them, the people that are working on the packs cannot be also testing, so they would have to pay other people to do it, and honestly I think they don't do it bc they want to avoid pre release piracy or some thing like that, is the only explanation that I can come up with... Not counting it will also delay the release flow of packs...

    I am also super excited about the new Litwits prompts, I have so many summer books I have not gotten to yet this year.

    Watching you go through all those romance books and their tropes was very entertaining 😂

    I have never read an MC romance. 😂 I did however read a Rockstar one and enjoyed it, so I may have to read an MC one soon and see. LOL

      I read one about 5-6 years ago and got hooked! :) I haven't read one in about a year or so, hopefully I'll still like them!

    My family loves Flux! We have multiple versions. My husband and I tried to learn the choose your own adventure game at a game cafe on a date night, but it seemed too complex. 😂

      It's not bad, but we didn't finish. Once we died, we decided to just stop there, only in chapter 2. It is long. It says it could take up to 1 hour per chapter and there are 5 chapters. It'd be a good one to play alone or just with one person and you can leave the stuff out and play over multiple nights.

      I'm jealous about your mom being in all your videos! :) I love that she reads with you and my mom doesn't read a ton, but I was glad she had a book to recommend!
