Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

You gain weight in the gym but you lose it in the kitchen! If you really hate the taste (/ texture is usually the real issue), you can also consume the fiber separately before the meal (the brand name of psyllium husk is metamucil and it comes as a drink or as a pill and you can buy it generic too). If you do take it as a pill make sure to chase it with plenty of water to help it gel up properly and not constipate you. Like this user said it'll help you feel fuller longer and it'll also detox your bowels by sticking to stuff on it's way through like one of those cleaning slimes where you push it into all the cracks of something and when you pull it out all the dirt / dust is stuck to it. Great when you eat a meal with a lot of capsaicin and your bowels are having trouble / still mad about it a few days later.
Or you start adding eat half a can of legumes like beans, lentils, chickpeas to your meals. It's cheap, yummy, healthy superfood for your gut. :)
