Is this y’all? Why are all of the mature adults in my log? Does it seem like I need a father figure that badly?

I show old cereal commercials to my kids sometimes.

It started on vacation when we bought a package of a bunch of little boxes of cereal of different brands. Because we do not eat like that at home usually, my little kids (3 and 6 at the time) did not know what they were or what to pick, so I put the cereal commercials on Youtube and the next thing I know they are fighting over which ones they wanted to eat.

The power of marketing.

We do not have TV, either, so they are not really exposed to a lot of that.
 
No workout today, just a rest day, walk the dog, etc.

Realized I started obsessing over the scale a bit much when that does no good given the wild fluctuations that can happen. Placing all the emphasis on the mirror now.

Scale will just be confirmatory diligence that I am in fact in an appropriate deficit.

No idea what I weigh this AM.

I am prepared to do 30 more days of pretty aggressive cutting...but then I'll need to pull back and eat maintenance for a bit.

I don't think I'll need more than 30 days to hit my leanness goal. I would say "physique goal", but we all know that's a fucking lie.

I'll never hit my physique goal.

Happy Saturday everybody.

I really admire that you don't eat that shit at home and also don't have TV. My wife and I are going to be pretty strict about screens, "unnatural stimuli" e.g., stuff that evokes a disproportionate reward response and pollutes their reward system at a young age, healthy food, and all the other stuff you would kind of expect.

Have you observed differences in your children compared to their peers as a result of the limitations you have placed on TV, food, and other things (I imagine)? Positive, negative, neutral, etc, would love to hear a short tidbit

That’s a sound plan until you leave them with the Grandparents. Then it’s cartoon time. Haha
 
What would that look like?
That’s kinda the point though…it’s a moving goal post.

I’ll never achieve my dream physique because I’m never satisfied and there is always something to fix or improve, etc.

My physique today is something I never dreamed I would achieve. But now that I’m here, I want more.

There’s some lessons in that… but ultimately, the only way to truly hit your dream physique is:

1) fix your self perception
2) take hallucinogens / serotonergics (mushrooms in particular seemed to elicit this effect more) and then look into the mirror at yourself. Congratulations, you just saw what you really look like to others.
3) take copious amounts of gear and build a disgusting amount of muscle

Option 2 only lasts for a couple hours
Option 3 is fun but still forever smol
Option 1 is the only true way

Well yes…can’t control everything you know? But just like harm reduction on Meso, I think we can aspire to do better, no?

If the old people aren’t going to get with the times then they’ll just end up getting passed by. But at least making an effort when there are situations and environments where we are able to.

Looking forward to your new member introduction later today LOL
