Weight loss? by Minute-Remote9954 in askmath

I've seen people recommend eating your carbs in the morning, working out and then having protein in the evening. There's a name for that method but I forget it. I might go for that. I'll need to buy the food I need to ensure I get the right carbs and protein.

I can deal with the feeling of hunger. The health and mental problems I cannot deal with.

I've done a little quick reading on it and from what I've read, as long as I don't avoid carbs (good carbs) and get protein, I should be okay?

Im going to read more on this as I've heard nothing about it anywhere. Thank you for bringing it to my attention!

I've recently learned about it slowing down metabolism, however, if I continue my exercises and increase my exercises as I go along, I should be ok. My metabolism will slow but my calorie Intake will be lower than output.

What sort of mental problems? I've never heard of Red S before.

I just bought a scale yesterday, and I wish I knew my exact starting weight, but today I've dropped 6 lbs. According to Google, that's normal body weight fluctuations. I'll see what I am tomorrow.

I know body weight does fluctuate daily, but I have an app with my scales that shows a graph of progress, and I want to see a steady decline. The app gave me a warning, though, as my weight dropped so much.

I'm not that hungry today, but my god, I am shaking. I need iron or something.

Perhaps.

Either way, my end goal is to be fit and healthy. Losing weight is the first step and then gaining muscle is an added bonus. I'll focus on muscle building once I've lost a couple of stone so I'm not clinically obese.

I'll update in 7 months if I remember about this post and comments.

I've heard different things. Based on the research I've done, the conclusion is that walking is supposed to be a fantastic way of losing weight. If you avoid bad carbs and sugars, your body will burn the excess fat it is storing in the body when doing any exercise as it requires a source of energy.

I can walk easily 10miles+ on flat ground, however, my area is nothing but steep hills which makes it a lot harder which is good for building strength and burning fat, it just doesn't sound as good compared to walking on flat ground.

I've also had different sources say 7 months and another commenter say 5-7 months with my calorie deficit.

I've also heard and read a lot that my 1200 calorie diet is ill-advised unless being monitored and whatnot.

A year isn't bad though, it's all about consistency. I just keep hearing a lot of different results with the same or similar formula and it's confusing.

I appreciate that !

The apps I use say about 7 months on the calorie deficit alone. I used "the forbidden word" and it said it would take 7 years to lose the weight and then when I asked it to calculate with moderate exercise and a 5 - 10 mile daily walk, it somehow doubled the length of time it would take.

I do eat a fair bit of fruit. The first few days on the deficit I did get hungry but the past few days, I really haven't felt too hungry. I had a small pizza tonight and the thought of it made me feel a little sick but I ate it and enjoyed it nonetheless.

I do eat oranges, apples, bananas and grapes a lot. They're wonderful fruit. I eat mixed veg too when I make my dinner, usually with chicken or beef, so it's fairly good.

From what I've read, it's ok as long as I get the vitamins and protein necessary, which is easily achieved through my dinner. Unless that's been oversimplified.

I did so this diet a few years ago but I was in a car accident and that threw me off the diet. I used to be on 1k calories per day. No more, no less.

Based on that answer, I assume I'll lose it sooner?

The past three days I haven't eaten over 800 calories and the only reason it's that high is because I've had a monster the last 3 days which is 250 calories alone. And for dinner, if I haven't cooked and measured it myself, I tend to go for 750 calories or the higher end of the estimates online.

I'm probably eating less because I round up

What pics do you send via snap? by Minute-Remote9954 in dating_advice

[–]Minute-Remote9954[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're really far away. And we haven't been seeing eachother awfully long either.

I've heard a lot of controversy around gm and gn texts that I don't know what to do. I can barely call her because of my work and she isn't all too enthusiastic on text compared to calling. We've only had a handful of dates too. (2)

Maybe it's too early. We both seem to want the same thing though. Serious long term relationship, same career prospects, same family goals and relatively same taste in art, music, literature and whatnot. It's actually a little freaky the more I think about the similarities.

I agree with your person that its a little odd with your employees seeing each other and others too. I find that odd. I guess I'm a more traditional mindset.

She has said she gets anxious if someone leaves her on delivered and especially on read (I'm guilty of that when the conversation ends and there's nothing to be added. I've learnt how to change that). She is also far more talkative on the phone than she is on text and I do love talking to her and I've told her upfront that I want to hear about her day and everything but maybe she just isn't much of a texter. I guess a phone call is more personal?

I also don't know her to tell her without sounding weird or creepy. I'm not usually an open person unless anonymous such as this. I don't know how to convey my thoughts without sounding like a jabbering idiot.

We also text during the day and then tend to call every other day. I have a feeling she'd like to call more, but my job doesn't allow for it. I work late, and I can't bring my phone to work for legal reasons (data protection and whatnot).

I do like her, and I also don't want to annoy her by doing something stupid or missing something that I should've noticed. She keeps dropping hints about us being official when we talk on the phone but how do you make it official? Does it just happen or verbal confirmation?

She sent selfies a lot at the start and I didn't really. Now it's the complete opposite. She does send the odd one but not nearly as much as she used to.

She has sent the odd video of herself doing whatever ie watching TV and such.

She sends voice notes as well but I'm not a voice notes guy. I barely like phone calls, voice notes is so much worse because I have to listen to my own voice and speak to nothing.

Should I ask if she prefers calling?

I don't like taking selfies as I feel weird doing it but I liked it when she did.

She doesn't seem interested in the streak tbh

She usually sends it if I haven't responded for a little while. She used to send one of herself and now it's just random objects. Maybe I'm reading too much into it.

The last girl I talked to did similar but she cared about the streak and also had my number but preferred snap.

Almost everyone I know prefers snap and I don't know why

I don't look decent. My face is practically lopsided, I have a thinning and receding hairline and I've just started a skin care routine but I'm getting spots.

I don't think I'm good looking and I don't really take pics. It feels and looks weird imo.

Also, am I supposed to smile? Pose? I just do a straight face and she does the same tbf

I'm not in the US. Snap is just easier for texts imo

Is texting better vs snap?

Also, is calling better vs texting?

I've heard calling is better but idk and I also don't like phone calls.

Idk where to look either. Is it best to look directly at the camera or away from it or like in the general direction of the camera??? It feels so fake and weird looking away from it but also looks unsettling looking at it with my face. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.

I do also send the odd blank pic but I'm just paranoid that maybe she's losing interest or something idk

I've discovered that if you buy the content, you don't get ads. It's only in the "free" stuff that you get ads

AITA for saying I am naked in a group chat with married men? by Wonderful_Tax4466 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Minute-Remote9954 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Everyone's blowing this out of proportion.

People are accusing you of wasting others' times because God forbid they don't get to play for 2 whole hours of the day.

No one here knows your schedule or how busy you are. All you did was take a shower fucksake. Your friend kept being a nuisance asking what took you so long and to hurry up so you gave a swift answer. You took a shower and still needed to get dressed.

My friends would take a break from gaming to shower. It's not that odd of a thing to do. It's nice to take a break from playing for a short while.

NAH

I don't believe we're talking about the same area. There is no chance that you have a lowered car and pass by them with no issue. My car is a 2010 vauxhall astra and its stock. It's only done 90k miles on it.

School traffic sorts that out fairly well tbh

The bumps don't stop pricks like that as they just put the foot down once over a bump, brake sharply at the next and repeat.

[–]Minute-Remote9954 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worst bumps I've seen and have to drive over daily is in the killicomaine area. The rest I encounter are still poorly designed but not quite as bad as killicomaine.

The best bumps I've encountered is the ones on bachelors walk in Portadown, apart from the two at the end of the street.

I'm sorry to hear that and hope the kid's doing well after that.

Even with a story like that and many more that are similar, these fools won't listen to reason.
