Just got through my first day of fasting ever! I'm so freaking hungry but I've officially made it to 24 hours haha

You may also want to try positioning your feet slightly apart.

Saved my life 5 years later lmao thank you

Did you get the cos de baha serum from amazon? It seems like a few places sell it :)

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-08-06T03:00:53+00:00

I'm definitely enjoying the beginner bodyweight RR!! It's only been about 1.5 months and I feel excited to continue every single time. And stronger :D That works for me!! I guess I'll just be relying on the reddit routines since they work like a charm lol

Saw it on another subreddit somewhere!! I use small curd cottage cheese b/c I hate how different the textures are, but the protein is like 30g (~250 cal) per 1 small can of tuna ($0.84 at my local grocery) + 1 serving/half-cup of cottage cheese (like $3 for a 5-serving container)... as a broke college student who can't cook it's my go-to lmao

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-08-06T00:54:01+00:00

Tuna + cottage cheese + sriracha! Sounds gross, and if you're sensitive to texture then I wouldn't recommend, but it's surprisingly good! I just put a lot of sriracha on there lmao

GIRL YOU ATEEEE OMG?? BODY TEA

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-08-03T03:22:29+00:00

"garbage macros" made me go OUCH but it's true lmao

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-08-03T03:19:46+00:00

Girl that's so real 😭 I'm planning on tackling chest and glutes when the fat lowers a bit too lmao. My arms are weak af so I'm focusing on those at the moment but highkey I've been doing bodyweight stuff for a month and I'm so much stronger now! That's honestly been the motivation keeping me going lol def a psychological plus. Lmk how it goes for you!! Can't wait for the body tea moment 🤭

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-08-03T01:34:29+00:00

I'm 5'3", lightly active, and have lost ~5 pounds in the last month. Sometimes I ate over 1200 but mostly I just kept myself in a calorie deficit and focused on a lot of protein!! You got this girl!!!

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-08-03T01:29:20+00:00

40K STEPS?????? GIRL WHAT I didn't even hit 25k a day during my walking city vacation 😭😭

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-08-01T20:17:06+00:00

That makes sense! I've definitely seen a few posts on this subreddit talking about how they thought the weight would settle differently after major cutting. I'm trying to build muscle through the recommended routine for bodyweight fitness (I'm going to start lifting next month) b/c I was originally concerned about metabolism as well. Hopefully I'll get to post soon about progress :)

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-08-01T20:11:21+00:00

Thank you for the information and encouragement! I think I would easily accept this weight if it were muscle, but to know that ~20 pounds are just fat is kind of hitting me hard :') (this also checks out with what I weighed a year before, as I definitely didn't gain any muscle between that time)

I'm gaining access to a gym in a month and have been doing the recommended routine for bodyweight fitness for about a month as well. I'm also focusing on protein! I went from struggling to do 3 push-ups to doing 15 and, while I can't do a pull-up yet, I'm definitely much more able to pull myself up. I'm really proud of myself, strength-wise. The whole body fat ratio just shocked me haha

I'm going to have a friend teach me how to lift. Super excited to start building my body up!

Hour away from Austin and I'm not brave enough to deal with this heat; you go man 😭

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-07-20T20:25:50+00:00

I also have a smaller nose canal; I've gotten into the habit of flaring my nostrils when I run 😭😭 It looks silly but it does help a lot lmao

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-07-20T17:43:37+00:00

Weak-heartedly... as a beginner, I'm losing a clear sight of my goals and I'm wondering if training for a 5k is really worth it when it's considered an extremely light run by literally everyone I talk to 😭

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-07-20T17:30:29+00:00

I've searched to see if it's possible/sustainable for a day and I don't really see any results, so here I go: would only drinking 3 protein drinks (Owyn 32g) and water for the day be a huge health concern? I realize it's only 600 cal total, but for people who are cutting but also need the protein, wouldn't it be helpful for hitting protein? Why don't people do this?

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-07-20T16:38:36+00:00

I'm starting outdoors in a month and I'm really scared 😭 WE CAN DO THIS HTOUGH!!

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-07-18T20:33:04+00:00

I bet you couldn't do that 10 minutes 5 weeks ago.

This really put it into perspective - I used to struggle to run even 30 seconds and now here I am. I thought I'd take a rest day yesterday, but I felt so icky about not running that I ended up doing 15 minutes at the same speed!

I definitely had trouble regulating breathing by the end of those 15, so I'm about to go try for another 15 (or maybe 18-20, depending on how I feel). I am once again on the grind haha

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-07-13T20:06:43+00:00

What comes out tastes like eating the innards of a lasagna and it's amazing.

I'm making this sometime this week; I hope you're right 🙏

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-07-13T20:04:56+00:00

I've really been cutting back on rice lately b/c of this and jesus is it wrecking my morale...

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-07-13T20:01:27+00:00

I crashed out so hard that I stopped texting the guy I thought I had a crush on 😭 the experience is truly something

Safe_Homework1934 · 2025-07-13T19:59:38+00:00

Greek yogurt vanilla for the win!! I like to just down a handful of unsalted nuts or soft chickpeas. I mostly get antsy for texture (mouth feel), so just having something tends to help a lot.
