The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

Great burger advice from @yofuckreddit in this comment.
On grilling specifically, you're going to need to just spend some quality time with your grill and be kind of picky about things to sort out the right flame level and timing. The biggest thing I can recommend there is going fairly hot (generally around 475 grill temp for me) so you get that fantastic sear and crust while still keeping the burger moist. I would also strongly suggest starting at a third of a pound or higher on the grill because quarter pounders tend to get overcooked pretty easily.
OH I totally forgot about that comment, thanks for the link! Good point on the quarter pounder- I had definitely cooked other burgers for the same length of time and had them come out fine. Hadn't considered the thickness of the patty.
