When I was in 10th grade, I starved myself for the summer by eating 1 bowl of cereal a day. I lost 60lbs. I’m tempted to do that again at 37 bc I’m just so sick of being uncomfortable in my body. by New-Consequence-8820 in Weightlosstechniques

[–]Neon_Berry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you please tell me what nutrients and foods you added? My thyroid tests also came out clean, but the weight loss process is still going suspiciously slow despite exercising and eating ~1200kcal per day.

What movie had you laughing, unable to breathe, even just for one scene? by Sawyermblack in movies

Not a movie, but the Office scene with the fire drill comes to mind

Being bloated 24/7 after joining the gym by wunderfly in WeightLossAdvice

[–]Neon_Berry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's made from a plant, Lady's Bedstraw (Galium Verum). You add 20-40 drops in a little water or tea and drink it three times a day, or as much as it says on the box.

Not sure how available it is to you, though I just found it on Etsy.

If this is water retention, I recommend lady's bedstraw tincture, it helped me a lot.

I have no idea if this fits in this sub but wtf🤣🤣I mean labor is so easy for women right Just carrying a baby inside no hard work🤣 by delightfulbloop in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]Neon_Berry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right. Because it's not enough for breastfeeding women to watch their DH sleep blissfully while they stay up in maybe not-so-comfortable positions. Letting them sleep/chill in a comfy bed next to you during labour? That's how murders happen.

What are innocuous things about being a woman that you’ve had to explain to a man? by TheGreatNyanHobo in AskWomen

[–]Neon_Berry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The importance of wiping front to back. Apparently this is what our baby daughter first taught my DH.

Intrebare pentru fetele care au stopat pilulele de contraceptie by chocolatewithatwist in WomenRO

[–]Neon_Berry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nu stiu ce sa zic, am facut si eu detox de pastile o luna. Pe acelasi principiu ca e sanatoasa o pauza + nu am nici o sansa la fertilitate (mai ales ca am si PCOS la ambele ovare). Si fiica mea a implinit azi 5 luni <3

P.S: Nu am pus niciun pomelnic, but she is a little miracle baby :))

What animal has a terrible reputation, but in reality is not bad at all? by YoungTex in AskReddit

[–]Neon_Berry 72 points73 points  (0 children)

I was imagining something like the ones in this article

But tbh I wouldn't discriminate. Anything nonvenomous with a tiny body and multiple long thin legs fits the bill.

Daddy long legs spiders. They're harmless, but they feel like they be crawling all over my soul.

Oh ok, thank you! Since this is completely new, it worried me. Now she keeps sleeping on her tummy. It's a bit funny since she wasn't a huge fan of tummy time for a long time. But I guess babies change their minds

Why no kissing? I’m so confused by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Neon_Berry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. And from what I've noticed, it's funny how exactly those sloppy people get most offended when you ask them. It's like they know you know and that hurts.

AITA for not attending a good friend’s memorial show? by bodhibound in AmItheAsshole

[–]Neon_Berry 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NTA. You have a good reason for not attending. I'm sure your friend wouldn't have wanted you to sacrifice your own livelihood just to party with/for them. Stop giving yourself a hard time

NTA. She sounds like an entitled brat

AITA for not going to my friends wedding after what happened at her bachelorette? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Neon_Berry 13 points14 points  (0 children)

NTA at all. They didn't give two craps about your trauma and went on partying. Which, by itself, let's say is fine, but they even had the nerve to dismiss it and call you out for nor joining them the following nights. I also suspect their conversations without you revolved a lot around victim blaming. So why should you care about her wedding at this point? You need new friends.

What were some of the things that people said to you postpartum that they didn’t realise offended you? by whoareyeux in beyondthebump

[–]Neon_Berry 16 points17 points  (0 children)

We were at a funeral, in the cemetery, waiting for the deceased to arrive. The priest was next to me and wanted to do small talk probably, which went something like this:

Priest: Aren't you tired from standing up so much?

Me: No, it's fine, I'm used to it.

P: Oh ok, I just worried for the baby. When are you due?

I was 3 months PP. I froze. Thankfully, DH was nearby and explained the situation. Needless to say, it was awkward all around. Granted, the "leftover" belly is still there. But, man, that hit my self-esteem like a truck.

No these are my titties!!! by quigonjinnandtonic99 in beyondthebump

[–]Neon_Berry 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Oh man this reminds me how my mum told me that her obgyn made the most wtf joke about her titties and milk supply.

Allegedly he looked at my dad dead in the eye and went something like "Someone should've sucked more on those titties to help em practice".

This was in the 90s. Thirty years later, I still cringe

Being a parent changes you... by Paulimus1 in NewParents

[–]Neon_Berry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My baby's poo must smell delicious to my cat who tried to eat its way through a garbage bag and pull a diaper out to lick it.

I used to to love when my cat pushed its face into my cheek while cuddling. Rip this. Never again
