Alcohol legitimately killed my weight loss journey for unexpected reasons

[26m, 6'1, 235lbs, was 210 a month ago]

Alcohol has a ton of calories obviously but that's not what got me, it was the cravings I had while drunk. A week ago I got pretty drunk by myself and was trying to get back on track after gaining 10lbs in a month. I failed so badly and ordered an entire Detroit hot honey pizza myself, I was pounding Powerade zero as well but I went from 220lbs to 239 in just two days, I get water weight and such are a thing but it was upsetting to even see that level of fluctuation.

This isn't the first time this has happened, I can EAT when I'm drunk, like 6000 calories in one sitting. It's absurd binge levels and I hope I'm not alone

I can't believe what I'm seeing, MyNBA is actually being overhauled for once in 27

Read through the report that came out yesterday and was pleasantly surprised to see that 2k actually is working on the offline mode again. Just to break it down they actually added four team trades with more assets that can be included, added the new CBA rules, changed contracts including bringing back eurostash and buyouts.

They're adding more historical courts which, I'm hoping clears up some of the wild inaccuracies. The new lottery system is coming, and they're even bringing back Create a legend with mynba legacy.

I'm just surprised to see so much attention given to a mode that they've ignored for years and I actually appreciate it. I'll be getting the game when it goes on sale

They're technically bringing back create a legend mode with MyNBA legacy lmao

Kinda neat to see a new offline feature in general

Wild trade framework for later where Orlando decides to give up on Paolo as the centerpiece and the Warriors take a huge swing. Needs work obv.

It's going to be controversial especially with big names like this but I could unironically see something like this between these two teams.

Despite JJJ's struggles at the Center position, should Utah still run him there just to get their core 5 in the lineup?

I don't envision this happening on night 1 but Ace and DP will have to get their mins. JJJ really struggles at the 5 but at some point, how plausible is it that Utah just takes the gamble and runs it anyways for the time being?

Alternatively, Lauri at the 5?

Absolutely wild trade suggestion from bleacher report that would give Utah some incredibly valuable draft capital

How many calories in a Styrofoam tray?

Accidentally ate my whole Styrofoam tray after finishing my lunch while doomscrolling. How many extra calories did I just absorb?

Some thoughts on the Jazz remaining off-season

With Kessler gone, the Jazz are going to have a harder time competing obviously, however not owning their own pick means they have no reason to lose.

Cody Williams has been a disaster, sometimes you gotta get off a deal at some point, he and Konchar combine for over $12m in salary, there are ways Utah could actually move both of them with potentially a 2nd rounder or 2nd rounder(s) for a 9th guy, or even better depending on the salary structure.

If the Jazz wanted to pay up a bit more, guys like Herb Jones enter the equation, but guys like Davion Mitchell also fit that price range. There's a chance that the Jazz stand pat but I feel as if they should be more inclined to get some wins on the board early before maybe being more aggressive at the deadline.

I wouldn't trade the Kessler package back out or anything like that, but I think filling some holes out wouldn't be a bad idea here.

Let's assume my maintenance is 2000 cals, and I ate 10000 in a day, would I actually gain 2+ lbs of fat or does the body reject some?

Was studying online and I saw that the body won't process a certain number of calories in such a little amount of time, seemed weird since calories in/out seems like a straightforward process but I was curious as to if there's any truth to the claim.. is there some sort of daily calorie limit? Some high point where the body just doesn't do anything with them? Or is that a myth?

Appreciate any answers just filling the rest of this out now because the minimum character limit on this subreddit is kinda crazy

I relapsed after 7 months and blew my entire savings in five days.

Currently feeling really sick. I went home just barely, I have $30 to my name for the week, I'm not in debt but I feel like I am because of the losses. I played slots, blackjack, roulette, craps, I lost and I lost and I lost and I lost, I kept playing though, I didn't say no.

I was considering selling my PS5 but I know I'd gamble that money too, so I can't. I don't want to give you guys the numbers but I'm giving them to my therapist tomorrow. I drank so much over the last four days, more than I thought I could possibly drink, and it surely didn't help.

I never felt like I was on top of this thing through that timeframe, and that's what's scary. I always knew that the urge to go back was there and sure enough all it took was a few days to throw away any progress I'd made. This addiction sucks.

Not saying they will but.. The Jazz have the tools to win a championship for the first time in nearly 30 years.

Jazz aren't my first team, but I feel like hyping this squad up. The 9 man rotation is nasty, you got Lauri and Keyonte as elite offensive players, JJJ and Walker for defense, Ace is being molded into a legitimate great scoring wing, and Darryn (DP, double penetration) Peterson is going to be the next Jazz great. Not to mention Flip who is going to shock the league, Brice who can't defend but shoots the shit out of the ball, Collier who can't shoot but is fast as hell and most importantly, SVI!

Jazz will win a championship in your lifetime.

Edit: I was drunk my apologies

I'm not that old, but the way the younger generation has had so much revisionist history on 2k20 is crazy to me

Gonna be a corny post here but bare with me as we chat some Meta for the 2k series. When it came to 2k20, The game was not good man. You were young, locked in your house with COVID, and this shit was forced into being enjoyable for you. Layups had no consistency and constantly missed for no reason, players throwing passes into guys backs for no reason leading to turnovers. Like I'm just being honest any 5v5 mode in this game was BROKEN.

And after six years I see the nostalgia and praise of this game going crazy, like what the actual hell are we doing anymore? No one liked this game lmao. I'll be honest the best part of 2k20 was that it had some notable lighting upgrades over 19 and the park was, sometimes enjoyable.

I get that the 2k community is notoriously unintelligent and is incapable of objectivity or giving fair criticism to the game, but the way that these games get so much praise in hindsight when they were universally hated during their time in the spotlight is what's hilarious to me.

I get nostalgia is a big factor for some people too but even as someone who grew up on 2k7-2k11, I think 7 is a pretty rough entry and the series peaked around 11-12.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Edit: was thinking about it and realized something similar definitely happened with 13, 13 was a crazy flawed game that has all of its flaws glazed over by nostalgia lol

Weird question about Penis scenes (mild spoilers?)

Alright so obviously there's a good amount of member in this movie, not as much as 4 had, but during the scene with Chris when he's flinging his dong around like a doorstop, they use a censor bar on the close up underside, to which his Weiner actually kinda goes past it.

Is this like a joke bit kinda like in one of the last movies where the censor bar moves off of the dick entirely? I figured they could've been implying that Chris' cock is quite large or something as well. Or are they not allowed to show that angle in particular so they have to censor part of it? I'm actually curious because I know there's some Hollywood rules that restrict showing erections and such but I'm wondering if certain camera shots also have to be covered.

I'm also asking because this has been a thing for awhile, they really try to hide phallus in as many shots as they can whether it's by having the guys put theirs between their legs or just having specific angles that don't really feature it in full force.

Appreciate the answers!

Who is this year's Hansen Yang/massive late riser?

Genuinely curious about this thought, I remember Yang Hansen being discussed as a mid 2nd rounder before he jumped into the middle of the first round due to a Portland pick. Who do you guys think ends up being that type of guy in this draft?

So, the Bucks made the big move, got a pretty sizeable return, but own none of their own draft capital, what now?

I get that the Giannis trade is a huge topic and will be covered extensively by so many people, but one thing I do want to know is how Milwaukee is going to handle the next like, 5 years, as they don't own their own draft capital until 2031.

Obviously, they have a couple of picks in the draft tonight, and those are, in my opinion, huge potential pieces for this team moving forward, it feels like they pretty much need one of these picks if not both to be cornerstone pieces of the future. I could be wrong and they could miss on both, but it definitely doesn't seem like they have a lot of room for error anymore.

They still have a couple of bad contracts on the books like Kuzma and Turner, there's a chance those guys get flipped but at this point it seems like they need to either let them expire or at the bare minimum try and see if one of them has an improved season to try and move down the road.

My post timing on this might not be the best since Herro could very well be moved tomorrow, I would imagine he lands them some assets but nothing too substantial. At this point I definitely think Milwaukee is going to want as many swings at the bat as they can get during these next couple of years, I could see them trying to trade back with a pick and maybe trying to acquire an extra asset, but again I could be wrong.

Free agency definitely looks to be important for them moving forward and although they're a small market, I could see them utilizing the new CBA to maybe overpay someone who could've gone elsewhere. Just a really interesting and probably experimental future here for the Bucks.
