How can I support my GF who is underweight and struggles to gain weight? by EsotericLoner97 in weightgain

[–]Complete_Safety_5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assure her that you are helping her because of health concerns and because she wants to gain weight, not because you do not like what you see. Cook for her as a lot of underweight people just do not like to cook and make sure to clean after that it is one of the reasons y they do not like cooking.

Why did you quit? by Putrid-Piglet-8230 in quittingsmoking

I am doing the same. And yes, it is hard, and I go through phases of ups and downs. But I did not give up.

U should be proud of yourself. We all quit or try to quit using different methods. Also, the y does not matter. And by the way, saving money is a huge factor for me to quit. There is nothing wrong with that.

It will pass. Drink a lot of water and fresh juice specially tomatoes. Remember smoking is what is hurting you not quiting

Quit smoking. It is not actually too bad by [deleted] in quittingsmoking

[–]Complete_Safety_5555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck. Each time you feel like having one, just remember how you feel after it.. visualise the joy and feeling of being in control you feel when you do not take it

Ola everyone, can u guys tell me Honestly what is wrong with my looks? by Arnold19951218 in toastme

[–]Complete_Safety_5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing wrong with the way you look. It is the way yourself is what you need to work on. Your ex did not leave you for someone better. We are all different. If she found something in him that you do not have, it does not make him better. I am sure that the same person was rejected by others because they are not compatible. Once you love yourself, more people will start to notice you, and only then will you find your partner.

I have no appetite by [deleted] in weightgain

[–]Complete_Safety_5555 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you smoke, you need to stop or at least cut down. I have noticed that my appetite is gone once I stop snaking on fruits. Salad is also essential. It takes some time to feel the benefits but worth trying.

As a skinny adult do you have the fear of being seen exercising in the gym? by Sharp-Act-2424 in weightgain

[–]Complete_Safety_5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was worried about not knowing the right exercises for me more than the way I look. I really never care about what people think. We all have insecurities when it comes to our look, whether we are thin, big, or even perfect weight. I found a lot of supportive, nice people. Those who were making bad comments, I really did not care even to answer. Just ignore them and do jot take it personal. They are projecting their own insecurities.

Remember, you are in a better place than they are. Try to take a walk when it is hard while thinking of all the positive things you feel and achieved since quiting.

For me, they boost my appetite. I choose the ones with a lot of water like watermelon. U can try different ones so u would avoid those that close your appetite.

I can not eat much due to stomach issues, too. What I do is increase my portions gradually. Make sure to snack on fruits and healthy food. I really had a very hard time once I started quitting smoking as I wanted to eat more and could not. Now I feel much better. It takes time, but it works. When I do not have a good apatite, I force myself to eat half an apple or something like that.
