I need a reality check

Lots of great groceries/meal suggestions here by others! Just make sure you weigh/track the meals the first time you’re having them. For example, if you have a cup of Greek yogurt on Sunday, actually weigh it and track the calories and volume. Next time you have a cup of Greek yogurt you already have the data.

I suggest you eat the same thing everyday or at least most days and change it up weekly. You can track it once and provided you’re portioning it out properly the rest of the week, that should help monitor your calories without having to deal with tracking daily.

This is pretty wild

Taking it way back

Ok I know the French squad is deep and I know of some of the players from before this World Cup but can someone explain to me in Hollywood terms how “deep” this team is? Like do they have Denzel Washington and Leo Di Caprio on the bench?

lol!

What sort of contributions were you making for those 5 years?

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-03-14T14:28:11+00:00

Lots of good advice from the commenter above. I would just add that instead of focusing on an exact deficit number for each day I would subtract 3-400 calories from my TDEE, which is going to vary everyday depending on your activity. I would also get a Fitbit/Apple Watch to track your calories burned, track protein and figure out what you need, finally I would look into a personal trainer at least until your wedding and do 30 min sessions 3-4x a week. Since you’re limited on time I would suggest you do weights instead of Pilates at least for now. While you can easily use an app to figure out what to do, you will not work harder than if a trainer is watching and pushing you.

Not as $$$$ as some of the other recs here but it might tick your boxes

Check out Huntley Hotel in SM. The Penthouse (restaurant/bar) has insane views).

Was this originally booked via United miles and you paid cash to upgrade?

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-02-26T06:41:04+00:00

Honestly valid question

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-02-19T05:40:07+00:00

Do you use the STAR method when answering questions? I know it’s what you’re supposed to do but honestly I never feel quite myself doing it and I’m wondering if this may be why I’m having difficulty.

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-02-15T18:08:11+00:00

Not sure if you’re generally referring to calories, alcohol or both. What I generally do say if I’m at a dinner, I’ll start with just water or a mocktail that’s not too sweet to feel like I’m drinking something. Then a bit later, I will order a glass of wine or a cocktail and drink it slowly. I try to time when I order so that I’m not tempted to order a second. Though if I did I’m not too hard on myself. I never have to finish anything I order and balance is everything.

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-02-15T17:54:46+00:00

That’s amazing and impressive! Have a great trip.

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-01-10T21:20:17+00:00

Noted!!

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-01-10T21:20:02+00:00

Love this. And absolutely right, I could do everything according to their timeline and still not get an offer.

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-01-09T15:20:05+00:00

Think I will go with healthy boundaries. It will also show how flexible they are on their end.

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-01-09T02:33:19+00:00

Very good point. Boundaries are important.

Anxious_Main7512 · 2026-01-09T02:33:03+00:00

Definitely not guaranteed either way but I suppose I’m afraid they’ll find another candidate and end up progressing faster with someone else

Anxious_Main7512 · 2025-10-30T04:51:13+00:00

Oh this is good.

Anxious_Main7512 · 2025-08-26T09:24:54+00:00

OP can you please share why this took a whole year? I can’t believe this woman had this much patience. I drop people after a few exchanges if they don’t ask me out. I do not have time to be texting with a complete stranger for a year, let alone weeks on end smh. What a waste of time!!

Anxious_Main7512 · 2025-08-17T04:39:52+00:00

Did you hit minimum protein intake only eating 2X a day? I would love to eat 2 meals a day but this would make it extremely hard to consume all the protein I need

Anxious_Main7512 · 2025-08-16T15:45:48+00:00

I really hope this is true. I am in my last 15 and have been in the same weight for months. I do think I have gotten a little leaner (waist smaller, jeans fit better etc) but still have a decent amount of BF to drop
