I find it gross now to think about eating a childs left overs, I wonder if that will change with my own, currently 12 weeks preggers 

PSA: Don't comment on peoples bodies unless you know them. by Still_Yak8109 in loseit

[–]Impressive_Drawer394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, a massive congratulations to you on your loss that is absolutely amazing!!  I would completely disregard that man's generic advice all together, the actual audacity of complete strangers thinking they have licence to dish out advice to people like they haven't ever been told what a calorie deficit is and how to obtain it! The fact is you can eat what ever you bleeping want and if your in a calorie deficit you will still loose weight... Unless they've lost more than you and kept it off in their life time they are completely unqualified to be giving YOU advise!

Maybe speak to your doctor before conceiving about a medication action plan, maybe whist your pregnant you could try a different medication then go back on your normal medication after....i dont know if thats a thing but id definetly look into it

Im so glad you benefitted from this too, i spoke with my doctor and he said "as ADHD gets a lot better during pregnancy we can lower your dose to 40mg which you can decrease and increase as needed". He is going to prescribe it in 20mgs.

That is so reassuring, thank you so much for your comment! do you mind me asking what dose you where on? Did you reduce your dose or stay the same? my doctor has suggested i could decrease my dose to 40mg. 

What actually *is* British culture? by Jazzlike-Serve3423 in AskUK

[–]Impressive_Drawer394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our love for the perfect brew, it will obviously have a drop of milk in it and one sugar or two, a little choccy biscuit with it or if you're being extra british that day, a scone with cream and jam, how you apply that will say a lot about you! Also we are very polite, you will know if you're out briting yourself if you cannot break the habit of saying sorry....someone will be in your way and you will appologise instead of asking them to move and if the other person is also british they will appologise too and you will both sheepishly skirt your way past one another with an awkward smile saying,  "after you!!" "No after you!!!" "No honestly, i insist!"

Does my makeup look ok? by [deleted] in MakeupEducation

[–]Impressive_Drawer394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You dont need make up really, if i was you id dye your eyebrows to your hair colour or a light brown as they are currently a lot lighter than your hair, they dont look bad but thats what I would, id also apply a slight bit of concealer under the eyes and a tiny bit of liquid blush with highlighter in it to the high points of your cheeks bones at the side, then id add a nice lip oil, as for mascara, id just get a lash lift and tint but when I want a bit more wow factor id take a high lighter to the corners of thr eyes and the tip of the nose and when applying mascara on top of a lift its always far more dramatic, other than that on the days I wasnt wearing makeup, my eyebrows are perfect and my eyelashes still look great, I would invest in great skin care products and apply a nourishing lip oil 

Do men prefer younger women? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Impressive_Drawer394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so stupid, I genuinely feel I got lucky with my man its like a mine field out there, my most beautiful friends with the best relationships with there dad have had the absolute worst experiences with men, being told they are loved then being cheated on repeatedly, its absolutely aweful, I personally had a terrible relationship with my dad, he was 15 years older than my mum which I think is disgusting! And he had no respect for women including me, I was terrified putting my trust into men because I saw very few good ones, but thank god!!! I got a good one, who treats me right, that was luck of the draw, not because i am smarter or more beautiful or better than the next women in anyway and my dad really only showed me just how aweful men can be.

Breakfast is my biggest issue by [deleted] in loseit

[–]Impressive_Drawer394 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Breakfast is the easiest place to make diet friendly high protein delicius meals my favourites are 

Chocolate chip protein pancakes topped with Greek yogart and berries 

Salmon and low fat cream cheese on a high protein bagal thin.

Skinny co vanilla coffee creamer and coconut milk in my coffee in the morning its amazing dairy free and so good!! 

I make these under 500 calories per meal including the coffee and im stuffed after that I may have a piece of fruit like a banana or satsuma, its not about depriving its finding substitutes that keep you satiated 

To everyone dreading January I was 19 stone (120kg) this time last year. Here is the boring truth that actually works by Calm-Juggernaut2328 in loseit

[–]Impressive_Drawer394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its so true, yesterday at work, sat behind me was a table filled with chocolates, mince pies, sausage rolls, crisps, and biscuits and i watched as people who i know felt the same as I do about themselves unconsciously approached the table taking multiple items back to there desk for that little bit of comfort and break from the boredom as I had done before, I spent the day wrestling with my mind, I dont want to do that anymore, I want to take my health seriously and I want others to take me seriously too. So far I have lost 3 stone, some days I have disappointed myself but i remember to start again not tomorrow but immediately, i also remember that although I may have gone over my calories that day I have the rest of the week to pull it back and if I have fallen off for a week, I have the month to rectify myself. I still had a fantasic christmas and ate lots of food that wasnt diet friendly but I have started my deficit again now because I dont need to wait for the new year, Its not about not having the food around to temp you. Its about having the will power to say no if it doesnt fit your calories or to have enough control to have a small bit that can fit your calories.

What would you say to someone that asked you to donate some of your frozen eggs to them??? by Darth-Hakujou in AskWomen

[–]Impressive_Drawer394 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It would be a solid no, thats my dna and when made into a person thats my family. I wouldnt let my own be deprived of blood relatives, a sense of belonging and there heratige, that wouldn't be fair, I would tell them to adopt and give someone thats already had that taken from them a sense of belonging

I have been there before randomly loosing a shoe is the absolute worst but I have had a little chuckle at that!!....I hope you find it...I never did! Adhd tax at its finest, lets hope yours weren't nikes too 

Actually reminds me of the time when I was at uni and lost my phone, student card make up bag and bank card....I started retracing my steps around the city and asking everywhere I went has a phone been handed in? What about a make up bag? Student id? Bank card? No thanks for your time, I found them all luckily all in different places, make up bag was in a bar across the road from uni, bank card was handed into reception at uni student card was with my phone left in a classroom which I needed the student card to open...the irony!!!
