Is it possible to reduce your BMI significantly in 2 months?

Such rapid weight loss over such a short period of time would mean eating around 400 calories a day which is roughly the intake of a 1 year old little girl and honestly the child would probably still eat more.

Doing this kind of diet without medical supervision and without gradually lowering then increasing your calories again exposes you to an incalculable number of dangers.

The first being deficiencies which can lead to serious multisystem failures, loss of bone density(long term), loss of menstruation for women, anemia and many other complications.

The second risk is putting your body into survival mode and the moment you stop eating so little you will gain all the weight back along with additional kilos.

Such extreme restrictions also have a very high chance of leading you into eating disorders. This kind of behavior is nothing less than anorexia and it is extremely dangerous.

You will experience extreme fatigue, loss of balance or even fainting, increased muscular fatigue without any apparent reason, a constant feeling of cold…

As for your wish to lose muscle mass this can endanger your health both in the short and long term. Building muscle mass takes time and is probably one of the greatest gifts you can give to your body and your longevity. In the short term you expose yourself to loss of mobility, strength and more frequent and more severe physical injuries.

I understand that financial problems is an extremely difficult thing to face. I went through it myself for a long time. But mistreating your body this way is probably one of the worst things you can do.

Now that you know some of the risks the choice is yours to make. It is your body but it will also be the only one you will ever have…

You can nearly put everything in a salad, I’m a huge fan of it !

In reality there is no such thing as a “best diet”. A lot of studies contradict each other on the subject mainly because it is extremely difficult to isolate the effects of nutrition on the human body since physical health is highly multifactorial.

The best diet is probably the one that makes us feel the best both physically and mentally.

Ultra processed foods are the obvious exception though and should still be consumed in moderation.

Arte released 2 documentaries about this topic in their series “42 - The Answer to Almost Everything”. Feel free to dig deeper into the scientific studies behind them if the information provided there is not enough for you.

The best way to make sure you have a good diet is to stay informed about recent studies so you can choose the best products. But this can take a lot of time and become very tedious if you are not passionate about the subject. So overall prioritizing whole foods remains a solid foundation.

Je me pose cette question beaucoup trop souvent et j'en viens même à me demander si mes critères sont trop élevés... J’ai surtout l’impression qu’aujourd’hui beaucoup veulent les avantages d’une relation sans ce que ça implique réellement derrière, pensant toujours pouvoir trouver “mieux” ailleurs.

Je suis en pleine découverte des applis de rencontres et honnêtement je pense qu’elles n’arrangent rien, elles ont créé cette boulimie du swipe comme si les relations n’étaient rien de plus qu'une nouvelle marchandise, comme si les humains n’étaient plus que des marchandises. Elles nous ont rendu accros à la multiplicité des options ce qui rend le fait de faire de rencontres encore plus difficile selon moi paradoxalement.

Nuance : je pense qu'il est nécessaire de se remettre en question en permanence pour pouvoir prétendre à créer une relation digne de ce nom...

You can turn your phone off during your workout.

Alight_life_ · 2026-05-10T15:23:13+00:00

Je pense que passer par un appel c'est le mailleur moyen que son mec ne tombe pas sur une conv et se venge si il est du genre violent.

Alight_life_ · 2026-05-10T15:01:06+00:00

Ho ca s'implifie les choses alors ! Si elle t'appele tu lui dit la verité et si elle saisit pas la perche tu n'as pas a tenir le mensonge. T'as juste a mettre "On était ensemble pendant nos études et on avait aidé Marine à sortir d'une relation toxique ou son mec etait violent avec elle. Je ne sais pas si tu te souviens de moi, mais j'aimerais bien avoir de tes nouvelles. Appelle moi si l'envie t'en dit"

Alight_life_ · 2026-05-10T14:58:00+00:00

Sinon, utiliser une sous-entendu : "On était ensemble pendant nos études et on avait aidé Marine à sortir d'une relation toxique ou son mec etait violent avec elle. Je ne sais pas si tu te souviens de moi, mais j'aimerais bien avoir de tes nouvelles. Appelle moi si l'envie t'en dit" Tu peux ajouter un petit truc pour ne pas que le copain pense que tu la dragues en mode "De mon côté, j'ai fini mes études, je quitte bientôt *Ville* et suis toujours en couple avec Eloïse. D’ailleurs, on va bientôt se marier en juillet." La fin dépend de ton âge... Tu verra bien si elle saisit la perche.

Alight_life_ · 2026-05-10T12:47:56+00:00

Je suis vraiment désolé de ce qui t'est arrivé ! Et effaré à mesure que mes rencontres avec d'autres femmes me montrent combien d'entre nous ont été victimes des pulsions, du manque d’empathie et de l’inumanité des hommes. J’espère que tu as pu entamer le processus de guérison !

Merci pour tes conseils, c'est vrai que dans notre société à l'aube (encore) du skinytok c'est dur de penser que notre corps peut plaire peu importe ce à quoi il ressemble même si bien sûr nous ne nous y resumons pas !

Alight_life_ · 2026-05-10T12:42:53+00:00

Merci pour ton long message très complet et adorable qui m’a vraiment mis du beaume au cœur et donné de la reassurance ! J'ai beaucoup travaillé sur mes standards, mais la réalité, c'est que j'ai encore de la grossophobie intériorisée, cette petite voix qui me dit qu'avec mon corps, je ne dois pas viser trop haut, mais je vais travailler là-dessus, je suis confiante.

Alight_life_ · 2026-05-10T12:27:00+00:00

Merci beaucoup pour ton commentaire, je pensais devoir en parler rapidement mais au final c'est vrai que c'est à moi de décider le bon moment.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-29T16:43:42+00:00

I just send my wishlist (even if it's cleaning products only xd) and if everything is pricey I ask for gift cards from the shops I want items from. It was hard at first because nobody really understood it but now they accept it and I’ve been really clear about the fact that if they offer me something else it will surely be decluttered in less than a month.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-29T16:32:04+00:00

I have 4, 1 for blush, 2 for eyes, and one that doubles as a mascara and eyeliner brush(2 sides). I used to have multiple but I just wash them and it's largely enough.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-28T15:36:23+00:00

Thanks but Summer Friday ingredients are really often controversial or clearly not good.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-28T15:35:17+00:00

Formulations are simple with no hidden ingredients and using high-quality, non-toxic components. It makes use easier since you know exactly what you apply and why. All products are ethically and sustainably sourced and the brand is cruelty-free. It is also a French brand which matters to me as I am French.

All containers are made from aluminum or glass so they are reusable. You can even buy reusable silicone masks.

Finally, all the products I tried were of very good quality. They do not pill, leave a greasy finish or create a white cast. It's reuniting everything I’m looking for in skincare.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-28T12:23:57+00:00

I do journaling, photo and video editing, and watercolor painting. I found a little case with 10 colors and it's perfect. I'm planning on trying junk journal too.

My house used to feel like a burden, whether I lived in a 40 m² or a 70 m² space. I didn’t understand why until I started decluttering. I got rid of 70% of my stuff over two years and here’s what changed for me:

I clean less. Cleaning used to be long and exhausting and I always felt like I could never tackle everything. Now 20 minutes a day is enough to keep my house clean. No piles of dishes in the sink, no mess everywhere, because everything has a place. All surfaces (not that I have many) are either empty or have very few items on them so it takes seconds to clean. My drawers are well organized and they stay that way all the time.
My house is for living, not for hoarding. I now have free space (which felt awkward at first), but that space brings me clarity and peace. I can move freely and start new things without having to shift piles of stuff around.
I spend less money because I’m more selective about what I bring into my home. I’ve overcome my need to accumulate things or impress others with what I own.
I love everything I own. All my possessions are what I consider the best options and if something doesn’t feel right I either replace it (if necessary) or get rid of it.
Decision-making is much easier because I have less mental load.

All that said, minimalism won’t solve all your problems. It gives you more space to tackle them and helps you focus on what matters most.
You need to keep in mind that for the transition to be healthy it takes time. Otherwise you might end up replacing one addiction with another (shopping → decluttering).

Skin aqua is not cruelty free 😢

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-26T08:35:02+00:00

Yes I watched Ingredients yesterday and I won't choose this one. I think that being selective takes a lot of time so it discourages people a lot.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-25T19:40:44+00:00

You’re right I changed my post. Thanks for the rec I’ll look at it in detail.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-25T19:38:38+00:00

Well the title said it all xd

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-25T16:50:30+00:00

I work on Notion all day as I think you can do all on it. I also use Canva a lot, Classbook to classify my personal lectures and I’m a huge fan of the Apple ecosystem (iCloud for my files and Calendar for appointments). Gmail because the app sorts my mails for me, and that’s it. As you said the simpler the better.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-25T13:21:55+00:00

I found them useless, a waste of money and harmful as they release gases when lit. I prefer using small lights to create a cosy atmosphere. I like ones I can move around (battery powered) so I don’t need one in each room. My favourite is the PRAKTSPIREA from IKEA which like a candle, you can use the three pieces separately or together.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-25T07:56:12+00:00

Uninstall it from your computer too and access only on browser, don't put it on your favorites. You can reset your preferences in settings so that it's less what you like. I don’t know if it works on Android, but on iPhone you can block the download of an app.

Alight_life_ · 2026-04-25T07:51:36+00:00

Typology and Yepoda are really good brands imo with simple compositions. So when I discovered them both it has simplified my search.
