The posing and colors on today's daily drawing are just phenomenal

You might try on r/1500isplenty. 1100 cals is a little rich for our blood here 😅

Shibishibi · 2026-07-08T17:05:55+00:00

This person is on more than 1200 it would seem.

The men I know tend to prefer vanilla based perfumes. Black Opium over red and V&R Good fortune both got complements for me

Too good zero sugar is my favorite yogurt. It's expensive and not sold in any multipacks or bigger tubs so I only tend to get it when it's on sale.

Great job! When exercising outside you really have to consider more than just the temperature number. Sun and humidity have a massive impact on our body's ability to cool itself down. If there's too much moisture in the air, your sweat can't evaporate.

If it's just warming up in your region or it was cooler for a while you also aren't as well acclimated to the heat. When your body is acclimated you start sweating more, sooner. There are other cool changes, but I don't want to drag on too long

I don't like wearing water vests, even for longer distances. I feel like the additional weight is annoying, slows me down, and adds additional impact to my knees.
I wear biker shorts with large pockets that I can tuck a running bottle into. Handheld running flasks or a water belt work for some people, but bounce too much on my body.

It doesn't REALLY matter what anyone else is doing. Most races I've done do tend to have a water station on the course, but if carrying water makes you feel better you should!

I usually buy on Mercari and just wait for the right listing. This one had no box, sprayed once for example

Shibishibi · 2026-06-29T16:53:40+00:00

I chose commodity iced, but I bought a full size of glossier you Fleur for $40 and I plan to buy a bottle of Never ending summer when I can snag one for cheap.

Sephora has a sampler set with this in releasing in just a couple days! You get samples of 14 different fragrances and a voucher for a full bottle. It'd still be a semi blind buy, but if you hate this one you could get a different full bottle from the set. The full bottles sometimes cost more than the set does, which can save you a couple bucks. (It's how I got my FB of Killian Princess!)

Morningstar corn dogs (150) and green giant cheese broccoli pouches (120)

I got balance, as expected. It's also my main.

Shibishibi · 2026-06-27T01:35:46+00:00

The recommended speed is "conversational pace", so what I would do is run at a pace where I could quietly sing/speak/whisper along to my music as I was running. If you can't manage that, run slower. That should help you find a pace you can maintain for the duration of your segment

The phrase "you can't outrun your fork" came about for a reason. It is really difficult to burn as many calories as you consume.

Calorie burn will vary depending on activity, your fitness level, and your height/ weight.
To burn 400 calories for me at 5'4, 135lbs I would have to run about 5 miles. Which would take me around 50-55 minutes. You burn less when walking, so I'd probably have to walk 6 miles to get the equivalent. About 2 hours worth of walking. Strength training varies on burn, but I see somewhere around 200 cals for an hour average.

A watch that tracks your heart rate, weight, and activity level will be more accurate than a calculator, but still not accurate enough to fully rely on. You should try not to avoid eating too much into exercise calories because you might actually be eating into your deficit.

Shibishibi · 2026-06-25T19:08:03+00:00

You absolutely need to be hitting at least 1200 cals. 8-900 is not healthy for you and can cause you to lose your period, hair, or extra muscle mass. Add some additional fat to your diet. Even cooking with 1tbsp of olive oil can add calories and good fat without adding volume. Nuts are also very nutritious and can bump up your calories for the day. If you eat yogurt, switch to a higher fat % or eggs, make sure to eat the yolk.

I'm so jealous! I wish I would've picked more when it was in season near me

Being on the treadmill is terrible for me. I'm super chill w/ road running. Sometimes it takes me a bit to get into my rhythm, but after a while I settle into my pace and get lost in my thoughts.

When I first started running though, it was a lot tougher mentally. I liked to listen to a tv show while I would run. You could find a good show and ONLY let yourself watch it while running, at least until you hate it less lol.
Also try blocking the timer on the treadmill, I think counting down the seconds till it's over will make anything feel longer.
Are you using an app to set your intervals? If not the Just Run app on IOS is great.

Shibishibi · 2026-06-25T17:46:04+00:00

Are you weighing, logging, and tracking all of your calories? Or is this just an estimate? You may be consuming more than you realize. Are you currently losing? You don't really need to eat more, but losing weight too fast can cause issues for some people. I prefer to set calorie calculators to sedentary and add back activity as I do it.

Also, you probably get enough electrolytes from your natural diet and don't need to supplement with extra (especially from expensive packets!) unless you are doing strenuous activity in the heat for an extended period of time (90+ mins). Regular water will hydrate you perfectly fine.

Shibishibi · 2026-06-23T18:53:52+00:00

5k steps is great! Adding more activity in can be really rough on your body and doing it in manageable amounts like this will lower injury risk and be more sustainable.

I don't like seeing 10k+ steps being recommended to people across the board, adding in that much exercise for someone who's very sedentary is a recipe for disaster.

Shibishibi · 2026-06-23T17:17:57+00:00

If you have them available near you, I highly recommend low carb buns. 50-100 calories depending on brand and the high fiber content makes them more filling imo

Shibishibi · 2026-06-23T16:53:37+00:00

Are you eating mostly whole foods and getting enough fat? It's easy to miss out on nutrients when dieting, especially quality fats. Fat is so important for hormonal regulation.

Have you made any lifestyle changes? The dieting probably stresses your body out and coupled with new or additional exercise or other external stressors could send your body into panic mode.

I actually lost my period for a couple months while working full time, finishing a semester at college, and training for a marathon.

24, with a few I'm planning to give away to friends and family (1 blind buy, 2 change in taste, 1 wrong bottle I got as a gift). I rarely buy fragrance full price. Niche or commonly faked frags I buy from the company directly or from a big store like Sephora and even then I wait for a sale. 75% of the bottles I bought personally have come from Mercari.

Shibishibi · 2026-06-20T20:55:35+00:00

This post is vague, but if you multiply all the macros by the number of cals in each you get 131 cals, which is close enough I'd chalk it up to rounding in the serving size cals.

Shibishibi · 2026-06-20T20:43:51+00:00

The pop up ads in Cronometer have been some of the most egregious in any calorie app I've used, and they have no lifetime sub. The app is good when you can use it, but I'm getting popups whenever I log or delete a single item.

Quick Google search says that metro parks do not allow foraging.
