The crack of crab shells. Assorted “yummy” noises. I have been watching hours of mukbang content and taking notes. I’m considering pivoting from unemployment to making niche online food videos in my apartment. The crunch of double-fried chicken. The sound of beef gravy slowly being sipped from a Styrofoam takeout cup.

In practice, weight loss is challenging, but scientifically, it’s fairly simple. You consume fewer calories than you burn (also known as a calorie deficit), which causes you to lose pounds. However, experts and health organizations caution maintaining a healthy weight involves much more than tracking your calorie intake. Instead, effective weight loss involves a number of lifestyle changes including increased physical activity, better stress management, and of course, a healthier diet.

It’s March, madness forthcoming. In Reno, the Wolf Pack Men’s basketball team is in the middle of a tear through the Mountain West, winning 10 of their last 12 games as of March 8, sometimes in style befitting the season. Their rivals at UNLV, not to be outdone, have also won 10 of their last 12 as of Friday, with one of those two losses coming to — who else? — Nevada. UNLV’s Lady Rebels basketball team has been doing even better, losing just two games all season for the best record in the Mountain West and good enough to rank 23rd nationwide.
