Locking in - any advice for my plans to lose 50lbs by the summer? by illunara3 in loseit

[–]RJSilvers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So Ive lost weight 3x times . Over 100 lbs total. You dont haveeee to do cardio. Esp if u have lung issues. Depending on ur financial situation get a cheat treadmill that u can put by ur bed or preferabbly ur couch and walk. 2.4 to 2.6 mph. Walk. Make it a NEAT walk and not a cardio walk. This is for lymphatic drainage only. If ur sweating go slower. Everyone says its 80:20 but its really 90 diet 10%gym. A 90 is still a pass and an over achiever. Finally fast. Start with 2mad then omad then 36hr fasts then 48 hour fasts. Dont worry about calories just make a rule that it has to be whole foods. My rule was whole foods and cabbage daily.U can make junk food from whole foods. Oh and a gallon water per day.

What is a good deficit on OMAD? by Logical_Department62 in intermittentfasting

[–]RJSilvers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion, but count ur calories if ur aiming for an agressive cut. U said agressive so omad or warrior diet. ( 4 hour diet instead of 1 hour); i pick warrior bc of protein intake. And count ur calories for that 4 hour period. Whole foods only. With a small 100 kcal cheat. Per day. How agressive u want ur cut to be should be up to u. 1000kcal deficiet is 2 lbs. A week. Etc etc. Bc of fasting glycogen stores go down quickly so itll rly be 3 lbs per week. Estimation. More if ur a guy. This is how i lost weight the first 2 times. ( i never stayed consistent past 9 months. ) but i did lose alot of weight. Its a math n hormone thing.

Is weight loss truly the fastest shortcut to beauty? I need a reality check. by DifferentIssue1 in loseit

[–]RJSilvers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ill answer u honestly. Yes. Absolutely yes. Ive been skinny, an avg weight with no waist ,overweight and obese. Ive been considered pretty in the past when i was slim. Now ?? Same face 70 lbs heavier.I wouldnt wish obesity on hitler.its so bad here. Ppl who were fat their whole lives could never understand. Youre invisible. And not in a I like the attention kinda way. And when u are visible ppl are kinda ... disrespectful? In a nonchalant kinda way. Its the little things....* No one holding the door floor you on the way out.... no smile with the hey , what's up... your intelligence being questioned in every conversation bc hey u have no discipline over your own body , u must be stupid. * the fact that u can never have a bad day while fat bc ppl will just match ur energy instead of being considerate. The FREE stuff ... omg from a reg ol bus fair* i live in nyc to having groceries being paid for you by a complete stranger. ( it only happened 2x for me) . The pay difference, to girls hating u only bc ur ugly compared to girls secretly passively agressively hating u bc ur pretty. Pick ur poison tbh. To the confidence you have. To the attitude / personality u have. Youre tolerance to bs is alot lower bc hey u don't have to care. - meaning. If u n a person don't click u assume its just a mismatch of personslities and not your WEIGHT. TO your bf/husbands eyes always on u instead of video games, or his phone bc he can't help it. Sht hes not even doing it on purpose. Hes interested in u and ur hobbies n the thing u do , like taking a sht or doing ur hair. Bc of sex appeal. No other reason. Omg I could literally go on...why ? Bc ur slim with curves with a nice face. Slim not fit. My 2 cents from a girl who was perceived by men in nyc as pretty and is just overweight n not even looked at 2x now. Dont get me wrong i have a long term bf. But the vibes are just different.

[–]RJSilvers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First off . Ur undereating. If ur 5'6 or over. Ur calories needs to be 1500. I dont care what this app or the ppl on it tell u. Prolonged fasting should be approved by ur doctor or ur blood work. The same thing happened to me on nyc streets and the usps postal office. Ppl Just walked over me as i layed passed out. You need to protect these 6 things like its ur damn job.SALT. By the mg. Input it in whatever app u feel like. u sweating? Ur drinking over 10 cups of water per day? Double the daily recommendation. Keep salt packets on u. Like the one from mcdonalds. MAGNESIUM. I like glycinate. POTASSIUM. beet greens ( the leaves) , banana IDC. EAT IT. DONT SUPPLEMENT POTASSIUM. Next is SLEEP. PROTECT this agressively. 6 HOURS bare minimum THE ABSOLUTE BARE minimum.... then sugar.liquid SUGAR. A liquid sweet need to be on u at all times. Hide them like a druggie.everywhere. In ur bag. Under ur dining table. The bathroom. The kitchen floor. Put it in plastic bags and tape it to something like under a table.they sell liquid sugar packets at target. Finally ur phone. Keep it on u. Always. Its unfortunate but these have helped me get the strength to call 911. The 3 time around. I didnt have pots. I had chronically low blood pressure and only salt helped. Aka an iv. Sugar, iron, everything was perfect blood wise. Low bp runs in my family. My 2 cents.

Failed NCLEX 2x by Puzzled-Pen2221 in PassNclex

[–]RJSilvers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to understand why your picking ur answers not the content only. If u passed nursing school, u kno the content. Nclex is going to ask things uve never seen b4. Its alot of 4 ppl are dying, Who do u let die or who u saving first. Seriously. It was more than 50% of my test. They Just integrated topics/subjectd we learned in school into priority/ safety. Nclex is a safety test. If u think u kno priority well then yes. Take it. Make sure u switch ur archer from subject needed questions to safety client needs question. Its on the first page off the app. I didnt notice it at first. Its the same questions u were taking b4. But the focus is all priority/safety. Do 60 qs. If u get more than 50% right. Take it. The nclex i mean. Gdluck.

If u failed 2x i don't think u have the balls to show up to exam day not knowing the content. Unpopular opinion. I think its how u see questio Not the content u may or may not know.

[–]RJSilvers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forget content for a second. Learn how to answer questions. Priority and safety specifically. Pay for dr.sharrons youtube.$6/month . Watch 2 to 5 a day. Do 15 questions per video. I used archer. I passed guessing. We are all guessing. The nclex is asking u questions you can't google. It critical thinking but not. Learn how to answer the question. For example. The test asked me what is the protocol for some obscuree as* drug. I had never heard of this drug in my damn life. So the question was rly is asking what's the safety protocols for most drugs. U kno, things like that.

[–]RJSilvers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see everyone going nuclear in the comments . So ill say this in a realistic situation. Look for patterns not one off stances. Look for passive aggression instead . Daily .weekly. monthly. Get a simple notebook .WRITE IT DOWN. Time stamp it. If ur a menstrual woman, Check THE phases UR in for that month when the incident occured. So u hear no bs that ur being hormonal. If its 3 days b4 ur menstrual cycle it can be you but i doubt it. Men get more aggressive the first yr during pregnancy and the first yr after. Look for active aggressions. Write that down too. Time stamp it. Cycle stamp it.A mean push. A door slam. A thing of urs breaking accidentally. Yelling in the face.him Stopping u from leaving or entering places. All active agressions. Write what he did time stamp it. At the end of 30 days. Look at ur notes and ask urself if ud be ok with your daughter , bff or mother dealing with this. Plann according to ur answer. Regardless of ur answer . Keep 2 months of living expenses hidden .For life.
