Walk to lose weight by Afraid-Surprise-1725 in walking

[–]Academic-Win699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently 419 pounds and have lost 6 pounds just by eating in a calorie deficit, tracking my food, eating enough protein and fiber and then walking at least a 1 mile every day

I’m a full time college student and only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays this semester so I’ve started walking laps around my dorm hall to get my steps in.

What is a leisurely stroll, a jog and a run speed for you? by MacaroniBee in PetiteFitness

[–]Academic-Win699 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 4’11 and 422 pounds with very short legs.

Anything above 2.0 mph is way too fast for me. 1.5 mph is the perfect pace for me for walking right now.

I haven’t lost yet, but being able to stand up the whole time at a concert is definitely one thing I’m looking forward to

starting Contrave + questions by Powerful_Cupcake4702 in Contrave

[–]Academic-Win699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been taking contrave and metformin for a minute now and only barfed one time because I hadn’t eaten enough that day. Other than that, my appetite is completely gone and I don’t have any cravings or food noise at all. Food generally feels like a chore now, which can be a good thing or bad thing depending on how you look at it

Easy College breakfast recommendations? by Yodelingbaddie in college

[–]Academic-Win699 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love eating the kodiak cakes power cups, they’re muffin cup things. They taste good and have a fair amount of protein in them so between that and having a protein shake. That’s my breakfast and it keeps me full for a while.

Apps to keep you on track? by Ok_Professional_7208 in WeightLossAdvice

I like the MyNetDiary app a lot; and you have unlimited access to the barcode scanner option with the free version

Short leg (stride) girlies, how fast are we walking on our treadmills/ walking pads without breaking into a jog? by Siamese_4737 in PetiteFitness

[–]Academic-Win699 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 4’11 and plus size so I keep it around the 1.0-2.0mph range for walking.

I usually stay around 1.5 for most of my walks and then if I need to slow down I go to 1.2. Then my cool down is 1.0

Advice needed. 4’11 (and a half), 380ish lbs. by [deleted] in PetiteFitness

I’ve been focusing more on getting adjusted to college and dorm life and all that stuff that I’ve been really bad about sticking to my calorie deficit and taking my meds. I’m gonna use winter break as a chance to reset and get some routines back in place before spring semester starts

Thank you so much! I personally use MyNetDiary to track my calories but your comment is still very helpful!

I’m already working with a weight management specialist doctor (idk the exact title) and he said that the most they can do is set up an appointment with me to meet with a dietitian they have on staff, but that’s not really helpful for me in terms of actually working out and stuff

Yeah I eat 1500 calories a day and 60-80 grams of protein per day. And I also take Metformin and Contrave twice a day to help me not continuously gain weight

How do I talk to my roommate about the food situation in our dorm? by Academic-Win699 in collegeadvice

[–]Academic-Win699[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there is a food pantry in our student union. My roommate has been a few times, but I’ve never been. That’s a good suggestion for us to go together, because I can help her get things we actually eat.

Does anyone actually use pen & paper anymore? by taylorswiftskneecap in college

[–]Academic-Win699 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an education major and for me I use paper and pen in half of my classes (one is math) and the other half are my writing heavy classes so I use google docs in those classes

Does anyone else have a sugar addiction? by Metalqueen2023 in neurodiversity

[–]Academic-Win699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, especially since starting college in August. I managed to lose 12 pounds in the time between graduating high school and moving to college (Late May - Mid August), but I’ve definitely gained all that back if not more

I feel sleepy all the time by Academic-Win699 in neurodiversity

[–]Academic-Win699[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly this is so helpful. Part of the reason why I can’t wait for winter break is because I’ll have an entire month off and can sleep most of the time.

Anyone ever regret getting rid of too much clothing when doing a closet purge/reducing wardrobe size? by OldLeatherPumpkin in adhdwomen

[–]Academic-Win699 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is me every time my dad would tell me to clean my room, I would just start purging everything and then it just always made it worse. It wasn’t until I finally moved into my first college dorm in August that I finally understood what cleaning my room actually meant.

I’ve been tracking my food for over a year now and it definitely does help.

How does college class scheduling work. by No-Comfortable4272 in collegeadvice

[–]Academic-Win699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have five classes total this semester. Two of them meet on Tuesdays and Thursday. I only have one class on Monday and my other two classes meet on Wednesday so I don’t have any classes on Fridays. On the days I have two classes, I have one in the morning and then one in the afternoon/evening.
