rofl you try to be safe with your foods 2.

Laughs in losing about 5 pounds overall and growing about 2.3 inches

Brad, I sometimes take food as a source of entertainment, I mean something that makes my mood-boosted and my boredom let go. You know we sometimes go through times where we struggle against boredom in our blindy life, especially in these Covid19 situations. Any recommendations?
PS: I'm not necessarily whining about the blindness matter, but you know it's just those times at when you literally don't know what to do to break boredom.

On another side note, Dark I'm pretty glad to hear that your wife is recovering from cancer, wish you both a very happy and healthy life. Stay safe everybody.

@Muhammad  and Gorilla, thanks for the good wishes.

Bare in mind when I say "recovering", here I sort of mean, that her last scan was negative, the side effects from the radio therapy are still slowly fading, and she's having trouble with anxiety and worries that the thing might or might not come back.
This is part of the reason I've not exactly been diligent with the weekly updates recently, since things have honestly been quite difficult, heck, I've not really had the heart to even do much gaming, albeit hopefully things are improving somewhat now, and I'm at least getting back to games.

Sorry to slightly derail Brad's topic there.

@Muhammad Hajjar, I'd recommend ppodcast, youtube, fan fiction, or walking around if you can. Buying food just to fill a gap for an hour or so isn't a good idea.

It's hard to not buy food, but try your best and if you do buy takeaway, make sure its healthy as much as you can.

@Dark, I'd not heard of this service, my nan still manages to buy food but htanks.

I hope your wife feels better soon.

@NortheasternGorilla, I hope your wife feels better.

@Gorilla, sorry to hear about your wife, hope she's okay.
I'll admit having gone through six weeks of radio therapy just in time to be put on the kovid serious risk list wasn't good, neither was being just about kicked out of the hospital's cancer support group with a facile excuse which has nothing to do with them disliking blind people honest gov.

We're coping with things as usual, but I will admit the last few weeks have been hard.

Interestingly enough, I found while my lady was in radio therapy that games which were low key in terms of major engagement with the source were actually pretty good going, since just being able to whack away and win, or explore interesting landscapes was sort of what I wanted, even if the games themselves werent' necessarily the most inervative.
Thus, I completely finished blind gladiator and did a lot of alien blasting on space encounter on my Iphone whilst waiting in hospital, and for the rest of the time, I think I'll always have a bit of a soft spot for blindquest, button smacky combat and over dramatic voice acting and all, just because it was sort of the perfect thing at that point.

@Brad, one idea might be to consider making a couple of miner switches. For example, in my early twenties I lost a lot of weight when I switched to ultra dark chocolate, since I realised I had a coco addiction.

i've also found myself zombies run helps a lot with exercise since it appeals to my generally gamer mentality, being able to complete missions, get supplies, build up my base etc, indeed I am probably doing more exercise now with zombies run (certainly more running), than I have at most points.

Thanks gents!  Wife has been doing great for the past 2 years, going strong.

@Gorilla, glad to hear it, also though my lady doesn't have breast cancer, it's nice to hear about someone whose okay, since yee gods! everytime you turn around in fiction someone is dying from cancer! You could almost get a complex .
It is true that you shouldn't be generally paranoid about what you eat, and take time to enjoy yourself, however there is such a thing as a happy medium, indeed in this I'd follow Aristotle's philosophy about moderation in all things, since while we all know health freaks who see diets as a kind of personal identity and probably spend more time obsessing over food than the most hardened gourmet, there are also people who are the gastronomic equivalent of heroin addicts and have a genuine problem.

Plus I'll say myself at least as far as exercise goes, I notice general benefits, especially at a point like this when other things in the world are so grim, it's like free antidepressants without the numming effects, which is definitely a good thing.

I have the same problems, and I blame it on the covid, though I'm not sure if it's the case any more. Ever since this horible pandemic, I developed this habit. It's not that I eat too much or too unhealthy, I eat as I always did before, but the problem is that now, I am almost 24/7 in front of the computer, and the weight I didn't put on because of the little movement I did before, I'm doing it in full now.

well I am like #20. I think I should like walk more around the house or something since we don't have any space good enough I could run in, but even standing on my feet for 5 minutes makes it all cramped up.

@UltraLeetJ, I should try to do more pushups and squots, thanks for the idea.
