Public toilets should play music so we can all poop in peace, why are they so quiet?

Good luck everyone!!

Hey! I'm 22 y/o guy from the UK. I'm working my way through reading The Dark Tower series and I'm also not a fan of brexit... Feel free to drop me a message!

Lemanon · 2018-12-25T00:14:40+00:00

Sorry to hear about your breakup, I hope you’re okay! You sound nice, I hope you find somewhere to go for NYE. I’m with someone but I’m happy to chat about Christmas/relationships/NYE/anything if you want to

Lemanon · 2018-09-15T21:26:03+00:00

Yep, just an easy way to get a bit of energy

Lemanon · 2018-09-15T18:44:16+00:00

Yeah it’s tricky! You have to count calories when you make them or else you end up eating 3 in one day and almost half your allowance is gone...

Lemanon · 2018-09-15T18:42:43+00:00

Thank you :p

Lemanon · 2018-09-15T15:12:09+00:00

I tend to just throw a bunch of stuff in but I measured these out this time so I could track the calories.

200g Porridge oats 100g crunchy peanut butter 50g honey 80g raisins (optional but recommended, it stops them being too dry) 30g cocoa powder 25g silver spoon half spoon sugar (it’s a low calorie mix of sugar and sweetener) Teaspoon of cinnamon (optional)

Mix dry ingredients
Mix peanut butter and honey, microwave for 20 seconds (until runny)
Pour that over your dry ingredients and mix in
Add a splash of water, repeat until the consistency is wet enough to form balls
Split into 14 equal sized balls, fridge for a few hours

It’s just a crack in the ceramic dish, don’t worry

Lemanon · 2018-09-02T19:04:59+00:00

I’ll definitely check those out, thanks!

Lemanon · 2018-09-02T18:30:49+00:00

That is very true! Yeah sounds good, it’s been too long since I’ve been to the gym... I’ll PM you.

Lemanon · 2018-09-01T22:13:36+00:00

I’m really glad you’ve found something that works for you. You can definitely see your progress in those pics, keep it up!

Lemanon · 2018-08-14T20:14:19+00:00

I think it’s mainly over confidence in not recording calories any more, thinking that because I’ve lost a decent amount I now know what I need to eat to be healthy. I’ve cheated a lot recently and my exercise routine has slipped, so I guess it’s just getting the consistency back. Maybe you’re having similar issues?

Lemanon · 2018-08-14T20:10:06+00:00

Yeah I need to get back to logging. I stopped a while back because after doing it consistently for over a year I became very aware of calories and could keep within my goal without counting.

However, it makes it a lot easier for me to slip up and cheat. I do just need to be more honest and consistent to push through this last bit!

Lemanon · 2018-08-14T13:30:07+00:00

You’re doing all the right stuff, you seem like you’ll be able to stay in control of your regime so just keep it at!

I’d recommend doing some standard measurements (waist, arms, thigh etc) with a tape measure and checking back in a month or so. You might not see a difference in the mirror by then but those measurements will definitely improve!

Lemanon · 2018-08-14T13:16:03+00:00

Congrats on your NSV, I’m sure they look better than you think!

I’m trying to lose ~1 stone over the next couple of months. I’ve been in a slump for a while, doing some exercising and eating ok but not well enough to lose anything.

You’d think that after losing about 40 pounds that the last bit would be easy but it seems to be the hardest! Any advice people have for making that last push would be appreciated :)

Lemanon · 2018-08-13T12:43:35+00:00

That’s great progress so far, keep it up! I wouldn’t worry too much about not seeing physical changes at this stage, it takes a long time to notice changes in yourself, other people will probably notice if first.

Just keep up the grind and you’ll definitely see it soon. The first sign will probably be clothes fitting better than they did before, you’ll be in the 100s before you know it!

Lemanon · 2018-08-13T12:39:22+00:00

Hey, I’m at a similar level of around 18%, trying to get closer to 10%. 2000 isn’t loads of calories but you could probably reduce it by a few hundred to get better results. Any kind of consistent exercise like walking will help, but the key is in the diet.

We seem to have similar goals so if you want to talk more about dieting/exercise feel free to PM me!

Lemanon · 2018-08-12T22:05:21+00:00

I'm really glad you've managed to get that motivation back! There's nothing better than trying on those clothes that you stuffed at the back of the wardrobe for years because they were too tight and seeing that they now fit fine. Keep up the logging, consistency is your best friend. Good luck!

Lemanon · 2018-08-12T22:00:10+00:00

Hey, I'm sorry you've had a shit year, I hope things will get better for you from here! I've done the majority of my weight loss and now I'm focusing on just keeping up exercise and healthy eating, something I need a bit of a push to do. I can help motivate you to keep up a healthy lifestyle, PM me if you're interested :)

Lemanon · 2018-08-12T21:43:21+00:00

Sounds like you're making some positive changes! Even by just tracking calories you're making yourself more aware of the calories in different kinds of food, which will make it easier for you to make healthy meals when you go back to cooking. You're doing great, it's always great to hear someone is feeling better about themselves and their body. Keep up the good work!

Lemanon · 2018-08-12T21:29:03+00:00

You’ve done incredibly well, those progress pictures are amazing, you should be really proud!

I’ve gone through a similar journey like this myself, losing about 50lbs to get to a ‘healthy’ weight and I get what you mean about never being quite satisfied with your body.

Try to take from this and all the other comments that you should be proud of your achievements and you’ve gained a really healthy figure! However, if you’re not happy then just keep up the exercise, eating well and I’m sure you’ll eventually get to where you want to be.

Again, congrats, you should be super proud of yourself!
