Drinking soylent, after packing up some of my tools, which I will use to fix my parents chairs, when I go to their house in a little bit for Easter.
I'm trying to do it regularly, but keep slipping up. My goal is to be diligent about my daily caloric intake for a couple of months, and the only way to really accurately know what you are taking in, is to drink Soylent. Every other method of calorie counting is little more than guesswork. With Soylent I get a precise number of calories as well as a balanced set of nutrients to ensure my body is getting the right fuel to function properly. For example, I know too many people who drank water constantly, but were dehydrated. It turns out they were not getting the salts that the body needs to be able to absorb the water. With Soylent, I can just drink it and not worry if I need more greens today, or more protein, or if I need an iron supplement, or other distracting shit like that. Mix this powder 1 to 1 with water. Drink the whole thing in equal portions throughout the day. Done. It's simple, straightforward, and allows me to focus on other things, like aerobic exercise (walking, primarily) and stretching, so I can improve my health and become more limber. After a while I expect I will switch to the liquid form of Soylent (400 calories/serving) for breakfast (hardest meal for me to eat every day), do a salad for lunch, and a balanced meal for dinner. That way I get the breakfast I need, in a form I will actually eat, and not be famished and over-eat at other meals. That's the plan, anyways.
