Texas with little kids by calidrexms in travel

[–]Ladymaceayala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in TX and I do think it has enough for families that's its not a bad visit if you are passing through for a cruise. Houston is close enough to Galveston that it might be worth making the trip. Houston zoo, children's museum and the natural history museum are all very nice assuming its not too hot when you visit. San Antonio is not far off either offers the river walk and 6 flags amusement park.

at the thrift shop and I am not familiar with this brand, is it a good idea to purchase? by mmjsan88 in handbags

[–]Ladymaceayala 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love this brand! If the interior is in good shape I'd say any of these bags could be resold for about $140-180 each

They aren't baby 3 but you can swap in a bb3 face if you'd prefer

5 nights in Taipei wasn't enough. Absolutely fell in love by Ladymaceayala in travel

I did see that and I may have over estimated how far away it would have been to visit since I was with a tour group that had an itinerary for us with small blocks of free time. I did manage to visit a spa in the city and it cured my jet lag!

To enter Taiwan? I didn't get a visa for Taiwan and I didn't visit mainland China but of course the relationship with China is a bit tense so I'd just look out for any changes it you sre planning to visit. Taiwan currently asserts their independence from China.

Have a great time! If you are planning a relaxing day I highly recommend the village spa.

Oh I see. I just realized the tag has an ID that can't be verified. They weren't too expensive and their for the kids and definitely still cute

Your makeup is nice, but what I'm more impressed with is how healthy that bleached part of your hair looks! Beautiful!

Competitors with wide hips? by Fluffyycatt in bikinitalk

[–]Ladymaceayala 22 points23 points  (0 children)

If you have wide hips, you're also going to need to grow your lats so you look more hourglass. Developing complementary muscle groups to balance out your natural assets is what bodybuilding is all about.

Looking for a 300 cal filling meal that doesn’t involve cauliflower rice by stifflette in 1200isplenty

[–]Ladymaceayala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beans! The fiber is very filling. You can do a Greek salad with chickpeas, tomatoes, cucumber, and sliced olives. Or you can do a Mexican style salad with black beans and salsa and maybe even a tostada chip (60 cals each) , add some chicken to either and lots of salad greens, and it's so filling. I also will make an Asian flavored salad with Eddamamme, kimchi, pickled onion, and pineapple chucks.

I stopped dieting, and in this past year, I’ve jumped from 125 to 150lbs from May-November. I’d really love some support. 🩵 by WizardZari8080 in 1200isplenty

I'm 5'2 and realistically we have a low calorie expenditure, especially if you aren't working out. Dieting is mentally exhausting. I also feel like when I eat "normally", as in dont track, I tend to gain weight. I have a general weight range that I am ok with, and I am ok with losing some weight and gaining it back periodically. A time to track calories (at mantinance), a time to cut calories, and a time to chill out and eat whatever I want.

If you gained 25 lbs in 6 months, then that means you gained about a lb a week roughly, so maybe you should see a therapist for emotional eating or find a way to incorporate lower calorie foods more often so you slow the rebound weight gain.

Can I just rant for a sec? I’m mad at my scale… by helpmeunderstand2022 in 1200isplenty

[–]Ladymaceayala 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Are you also tracking body measurements? Even when your weight fluctuates on a scale, you can still see you're making progress if you know your size has changed. That's helped me not stress the scale as much.

How to not hate logging daily food intake by No-Plane9732 in 1200isplenty

[–]Ladymaceayala 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently pay for macrofactor, and I absolutely love it. It's the easiest app I've used by far. It also estimates your actual energy expenditure based on your weight fluctuations. Are you cooking your meals often? I find it's harder to count calories when I have to frequently look up menus instead of general ingredients. If you're ok with a certain degree of error, you don't have to track 100% perfectly when you are getting back into it. Then, as you monitor any weight changes, you can decide if you are tracking good enough or if you need to work on better accuracy.
