@whitewolf_works I vote "no" because dieting seems to necessitate severe suffering to lose even a few lbs, is not worth the trade... However I did recently lose weight by running a 104 deg fever for a week- much easier than intentional dieting.
@whitewolf_works Other ways I've found weight loss success are backpacking, having a manic episode (tend to have trouble eating), and 90+ min daily high intensity workouts
@whitewolf_works Oh- vegan-unfriendly travel is another option- lost 10 lbs on a trip to Nigeria where I ate mostly plantains and pineapples for two weeks.
@whitewolf_works In all cases I had severe insomnia and spent most of my time daydreaming about food, unable to focus on productive work
