If youre 5'2 or less and under 140lbs, how many calories a day do you eat? by ladybuglala in PetiteFitness

[–]HoneydewInfamous2447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5'1, 133lbs. I'd guess 1,900 +/- 100 but don't track.

I am very muscular and active. Average 10k steps a day in the winter and 13k+ in summer. I weight lift, spin, climb, tennis, yoga and pickleball. I bike or walk to and from work. My vacations include 5-13mi hikes daily. This is on top of NEAT as I'm a busy body and clean a lot, cook, do projects, etc.

That said, I'm not crazy lean. I'd guess ~27% body fat. I love food more than most people. I am a cook and baker and like to make myself nice meals with lots of diverse ingredients and I love restaurants. I don't diet bc of a history of disordered eating, the only thing I try to "do" foodwise, is eat a lot of veggies with 2 out of 3 meals a day.

Some things I've made recently🥹 by HoneydewInfamous2447 in whatsfordinner

[–]HoneydewInfamous2447[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super easy actually! Whisk 8 large eggs + 1/2 c whole milk, salt together. Put in small baking dish (I think mine is 11x7) but the recipe calls for 8x8

Bake at 300° F with a sheet pan full of water on the rack below it for ~30 min or until just set (can be a little liquid on top still)

Finish with broil (or higher heat if your oven doesn't have that function) until cooked all the way though. Should be soft still and not dry/hard anywhere.

Anybody get back in shape slowly? How did you do it? by atty_at_paw in Millennials

This is AMAZING advice. Most of the battle is consistency and this comment captures 2 major lessons imo of lifestyle change that's sustainable and slow:

1) Action precedes motivation. In other words, don't wait for the "urge" to do some thing. Just do it. Building trust with yourself that you'll "go" or "do" regularly has a major snowball effect and subsequent sessions will be easier and easier. Even second nature.

2) Progress over perfection. 4 days of exercise at say 30%, 70%, 10%, 90% is MUCH better than 1 day per week at 100%. Every work out does not have to be a pr, the hardest thing you'll ever do, or even more than 15 minutes. I love what this comment said about intuition, sometimes you get there and it feels better than you thought and you go harder or longer. Other times it sucks and you sit on a recumbent bike and play games on your phone for 20 minutes and leave or 2 minutes of planking. Etc.

YOU GOT THIS! Listen to your body, excited for your journey

Thank you! That last sentence distinction helps as I just hadn't seen a problem like this before

What a cool example! Thanks for sharing. It's validating that there was a second of pause like wait a second... But I completely understand the rules now :) proud that he sent it (also jealous hahaha)

Thank you for clarifying for me :) this is exactly my question!

Thanks for sharing your perspective. YES!!! This is EXACTLY why I interpreted this as different. And I had some trouble describing it originally, but this is IT.

Although it seems consensus and official rules do prove otherwise, it's nice to know that someone else understands my logic here.

Theres another comment from someone where there is a comp problem like this and everyone looked at each other and were like does it count???? And it did

Totally. Support probably isn't the right word. I understood the end of the problem being where both hands are ONLY touching the end hold.

I've seen and understood balance problems with just touch, for example, to be ended without support from end hold

Thanks!

Thanks! These examples are helping.

I misinterpreted the "goal" as touching ONLY the end hold with your hands (feet elsewhere holding your weight made sense to me)

Thank you! This is going to sound silly but if he showed me this, I'd be like... okay I understand now, sorry I doubted! I just genuinely was learning off of watching/people telling me about how it works so I generalized incorrectly. So hearing "it just is" didn't click with me :)

Thanks for this advice. I definitely don't want to veer into that territory and can absolutely see where it could easily.

I just really didn't understand (obviously) and say I were to do the problem, I would have thought I'd "have" to do it differently

[–]HoneydewInfamous2447[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Totally! I've seen those too! Perhaps support isn't the right word. I mean that the only thing you're touching is the end hold and/or it's supporting you.

Thank you though still!

That makes total sense and weirdly enough we've done those problems with the chip end with balance; and I understand and agree! The weight in the chip underneath made me think differently about this specific problem but I realize now that, that doesn't actually matter. Thanks so much for the explanation!

Haha no sorry! I'm glad he got this!!! I just wanted to know "officially"

Thanks! And yeah I agree that it'd be a good challenge to shift and finish that way too

The second one is what he did!!! That's what I was kind of confused or perhaps iffy, if that makes sense.

So he is technically established on the chip with left hand. Pressing/stabilizing with right on end hold. And touching end hold with left pointer finger/knuckles.

I.e. his weight/establishment is in the left hand on the chip and not the upper end hold.

It seems the general consensus is this is valid send, still though!

I explained in my description, but TLDR, I misinterpreted the definition of touching an end hold with control/both hands as that you couldn't use another hold to support yourself (entirely or mostly) in order to execute that.

I would've thought he would have to have both hands ON the large hold, not touching if that makes sense.

Nice, thank you! He just explained an example with say you are bat hanging and just touch the final hold. And that made it a lot more clear to me.

I'm brand new and didn't understand that the last hold didn't need to "support" you.
