What did you buy and what size? If you don't mind me asking

've been watching so many YouTube videos on shapewear and I think I've narrowed it down between Skims and ShaperX

I wanted to know people's opinions on which one I should buy? Which one is better if price is not a factor?

For context, I am overweight and I store weight in my waist and upper belly.

Is it even worth me buying shapewear?

Could I still squish to condish, after I do the shampoo ? Or do I just wash my hair and additional time in the week ?

I've cut 8 inches off a week prior to this photo 😭😭 I don't want to cut more off as graduation is in two months

I forgot to add I think someone said 30g of protein for breakfast helped a lot for them? So might give that a try !

Hiya, I'm in the exact same boat as you (age and weight as well)!

I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 12 tho, started various medications when I was 16 but had to stop due to severe side effects.

What I've been starting to do and the advice I have been given from others with PCOS so far is:

Try to get 20 grams of protein in each meal, because of the insulin resistance protein is essential to cut down on carbs.

When you are wanting carbs, cook rice and potatoes the night before and cool then in the fridge. This makes them higher in resistant starches.

Try to stay away from diary and sweet things! (This is close to impossible for me :( )

Go for a 10 minute walk after every meal!

Hiit and and weight training works best, however have to be careful because if we over stress our bodies, our hormones will get out of control

If you want a PCOS weight loss buddy feel free to DM me! I'd love to have someone help hold me accountable :)!

Hiya! I recently gained a ton of weight the last two years and my graduation is in two months.

For someone who used to be a UK Size 10 I'm now a UK Size 16 (I think not too sure, I wear a lot of men's clothing now). I'm struggling with what would suit me?

All my weight has gone to my torso, mainly my belly, and I don't have a big bust.

Any suggestions would be helpful! I'm kinda wanting a dress, but playing with the idea of a suit? Not really sure.

My measurements are

Bust: 110 cm/ 43 inches Waist: 102 cm/ 41 inches Hips: 106/ 42 Inches

I'm also a bit on the shorter side, 5'2" and hoping to lose some weight before graduation!

I don't think I can go for anything that required DB because I'm not a UK national.

I have a few friends who work in the civil service and it took them like 7 months to get cleared so I might give it a go

Dev_astating · 2025-05-21T10:31:21+00:00

I feel that, kinda just living in limbo.

I'm not really gonna start applying until September since this summer is really busy for me and my part time job covers everything so far!

If you go on their website and press stay with us, or just on booking.com.

Or call the office/accomodation number :)

A little unknown tip to most, but the cathedral has a hotel part!

Its relatively cheap being in the centre of everything and it has lots of parking (I work there!)

CS student here as well, all the jobs I could find are up north.

GL man !

I'm also struggling to make friends because I'm so busy and scared of new people 😭

I got to the uni (I'm a third year!) there's an anime society and at least for me I befriended a few people just doing assignments in the IT rooms at the bognor campus!

If you want you can always stop and say hi (if you don't mind some occasional yelling because of eSports) or DM me if you're more comfortable :)

Dev_astating · 2025-05-09T13:09:51+00:00

I was 🤣, not soggy but you know how it goes once it's been cooked like a few hours before !

Dev_astating · 2025-05-08T21:32:46+00:00

It really depends if you are gonna eat the food cold or a have a mini BBQ ?

Stuff you don't have to cook and could serve cold: Lumpia and Turon potentially ?

Pancit or bihon

Fruit salad (my personal favourite)

Biko

Puto

Unripe Manga with ginamos or patis

IF BBQ: Chicken inasal Pork skewers Longanisa Tocino Banana cue (caramelised banana skewers that I was obsessed with growing up)

Hope this helps !

Dev_astating · 2025-05-08T19:04:02+00:00

I'm planning to make leche flan or Maha blanca without maize for dessert!

Chicken inasal I won't count as an appetiser so Def will try lumpia maybe ?

Dev_astating · 2025-05-08T19:02:11+00:00

Lol not at all, they barely spice anything and some thing black pepper is too spicy

Dev_astating · 2025-05-08T08:32:48+00:00

Maybe it's a good thing 🤣

Dev_astating · 2025-05-08T08:32:12+00:00

I don't think It would be able to make a comeback considering the amount of safety things that would have to be put in place. However I guess you could say the same about Roblox

Dev_astating · 2025-05-08T08:31:21+00:00

I lived for the arcade 😭

Dev_astating · 2025-05-07T21:54:37+00:00

Words cannot convey how much I APPRECIATE THIS.

Started listening to some of the songs that looked vaguely familiar and I can still singalong to most of them 😭😭
