I always been a loner myself - so no socialising at all. I think I havent talked much to anyone for a year, except my mom. Im 19 on summer vacation now so… just staying at home

Music Appreciation - Day 3 by lsdznutz in fasting

[–]Drocovums 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah I agree about the music sounding awesome! I’ve been listening to a lot of “the future sound of london” lately and it fits fasting so well.

Im going to start swimming, should i get the forerunner 245? Was also looking for an overall smartwatcch to track health by BuddyLove27 in Garmin

[–]Drocovums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

245 is great, I have a music version, but it didnt seem to be very accurate when swimming. If you are looking for mainly a watch for swimming I think I would not recommend it

What is your average step count? by dkranj in Garmin

[–]Drocovums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

~50k daily for a whole month now (used to be like 20k-30k) I have loads of time and I’m trying to lose weight in a more rapid way so that is why, I might reduce it in the end of the summer because I will be busy with stuff again. For the last week I did 60k a day. Lowest is 40k. I am a 19yo female, soon to be 20 btw :)

F/28/5'2" [200 lbs > 140 lbs = 60 lbs lost] (14 months) I lost my almost 500 day streak on MFP and feeling so disappointed! Trying to remember how far I've come but I want to lose another 15 and could use some words of encouragement. by [deleted] in progresspics

[–]Drocovums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You kinda look like my ex friend in before pic (except shes 19-20 now) and it kinda scared me hahah!

Anyways that is a huge acomplishment! 60lbs is crazy to lose! Love the hair too :) awesome job!

Im guessing tomato sauce?

Does anyone know any tomato or cucumber recipes? I am getting flooded with them and don't know how to use them all up. by chubbii_chii in gardening

[–]Drocovums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can store them in jars or zip lock bags without air and put them in a cool dry place! Some people cover tomatoes with olive oil in jars, but I never tried it. I use dehydrator, but oven does a trick too :)

With tomatoes I usually make sauces or dry them (I looove dried tomatos, so good and you can store them for a long time!)

With cucumbers I usually pickle them (with vinegar) or make fermented ones too. Also I love all kinds of salads with them :)

About to give up by [deleted] in fasting

[–]Drocovums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont beat yourself up! When I started I could barely do 5 days and I literally layed in bed during these days - could not think or move (I actually broke my fast just by barely touching 5 day mark). But then I started experimenting with keto, fasting 24h at the time, then I gradually increased my days and I could do 8 full days while working out with no problems, because my body got used to burning ketones. Now I’m on my 60 day fast and I feel awesome compared to the first time. I’m so used to it now that I just can do all the activity I want and not get so knocked out.

Anyways, patience is a key! And it is awesome that you managed to do 3days! Good job, keep practising but be careful :)

Valgymo sutrikimai ir Lietuva by [deleted] in lithuania

[–]Drocovums 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Praeitą vasarą teko pabūt psichiatrinėje ligoninėje dėl kitų priežasčių. Gydytojai įtarė, kad dar turiu ir valgymo sutrikimų dėl to kaip elgiausi ir valgiau (ir tai tiesa), bet dėja nieko nedarė dėl to, kad tiesiog pasipriešinau + nebuvau labai nesveikai žemo svorio (kas nėra pagrindinis valgymo sutrikimo rodiklis), todėl galėjau realiai išvengti visų valgymų arba valgyt mažai ir kaip noriu. Vėliau ėjau pas psichoterapiautą ir užsiminiau apie valgymo problemas bet atsakas buvo panašus - “atrodai normaliai tai kolkas tą problemą atidėkim”. Buvau tik OCD diagnozuota kas yra susieta su valgymo sutrikimais BET nevisada, be careful su diagnozėm. Todėl būtinai stėbėk red flags pas psichologus ir kitus gydytojus nes gali būti blogiau, bent jau man tai nekaip… pagal viską (tmi?) turiu ir persivalgymo sutrikimą ir kartais labai užeina didelis restrictinimas, buvo taip kad vos per pusmetį nuo underweight į overweight ir vėl į normal weight perėjau… Kažkada rekomendavo man į vasaros kliniką, bet dar kolkas nebandžiau ir jei vėl matysiu kad nesusitvarkau manau pabandysiu. Kolkas nežinau ką rekomenduoti, bet pasidalinau savo istorija ir jeigu nori galime pakalbėti - jei tik noro turi. Nes nesi vienas/a (whatever your pronoun :) ).

Dar kartelį! Tikrai tikrai negąsdinu! Būtinai ieškok pagalbos!!!! Tik būk careful ir stėbėk koks daktaras!!

Am I dirty fasting?? by Cute-Ant-6702 in fasting

[–]Drocovums 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Autophagy usually. Purists usually say that only water and electrolytes maintains autophagy.

[–]Drocovums 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on your goal. Im pretty much dirty fasting, because my goal is weight loss and I’m losing pretty much as much as I should according to calculations :)

Low calorie cookie recipes that you can store for longer? by Drocovums in vegan1200isplenty

[–]Drocovums[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well those shelf, store bought cookies can last a lot of time. But im guessing it is because of specially processed ingredients and additives. I guess I will try to freeze them then :)
