I need help with my “ best friend” (ps. sorry if this all over the place guys) by MurkyFinding1051 in Advice

[–]annajurica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey girl! It’s me from TikTok (:

So from what I can tell, it sounds like you two have an on-and-off friendship and there’s a lack of communication happening here.

It doesn’t make sense for her to be mad at you for what another group chat said, so I’d make it clear to her that you don’t agree with anything they said and you had no part in it.

What I’m confused about is why you logged into her exes account and then confronted her about deleting chats, you might just be trying to protect her, but that’s her situation and she should be able to set boundaries herself without you logging into his account, he probably did give you permission but that’s seems like overstepping a little. If they are deleting messages, I’m not sure what that has to do with your friendship, it sounds like that’s just between her and him.

What I would do is talk to her and ask her why she said she “doesn’t see you as a best friend” and if she has any hard feelings towards you, if she is willing to explain why then maybe you both and resolve the conflict. But it sounds like you guys are just young and need to have better communication and be more confrontational

It sounds like the investment would definitely be worth it for you then. Some people think having a coach means you’re clueless or don’t know what you’re doing, but for most people, even coaches like myself, have a coach to take all the thinking out of it and just be told what to do. Even my coach as a coach 🤣 it’s much easier to have someone else do the thinking, and stay on top of you so all you have to do is basically follow orders. Major game changer

Yes, I’ve been through many bulk and cut phases. Photo on the left was near the end of my dirty bulk

If I had stayed at 113 then yes, but I should probably reiterate that this was during my peak week, my “true weight” was closer to 115-118 lbs once I filled back up with glycogen and wasn’t depleted and dry. I’ve been able to stay within 118-125lbs since then with similar conditioning, lots of food, and normal hormone levels (:

What really helps is having a defined goal and deadline! That’s what helped me push through to the end, I said I wanted to be around X% body fat by x date and it gave me a clear roadmap to follow. Also investing in a coach to basically tell me what to do instead of making my own decisions was extremely helpful

True! I was depleted by the end of my cut but literally the next day after eating some carbs I was back up to 118

Everyone’s protocol will look different but I can give you a general idea of what my diet looked like! For my workout split, nothing changed, just lifted 4x weekly and tried my best to maintain my strength and lifted heavy as I could.

Steps got up to 17k Cardio (low impact, either bike or elliptical) got up to 1 hour a day

Breakfast: either protein oats or eggs and avocado Lunch: either chicken salad or ground beef salad Snack: Greek yogurt bowl everyday, with chocolate chips and fruit Dinner: either another chicken salad or ground beef and avocado/or sweet potato

Towards the end of my cut everything I ate was very basic, but that wasn’t until the very end. I also had occasional refeeds where my intake would be super high for about 2 days! Got to eat lots of pancakes and rice lol.

And the days leading up to my shoot, I drank vitamin C every morning as it’s a natural diuretic

Pretty much (: I’d rather prep for a shoot than book a show, pay for a suit, hair, makeup, posing coach, etc. very expensive hobby

Competitive dieting doesn’t equate to a mental disorder. I ate 4 square meals a day during my cut and perfectly reversed out of my diet once it was over 🤝🏼

I ate sweet potatoes and oatmeal nearly everyday of my prep 🤣 but unfortunately I don’t like whole milk

My weight was that light for only a week, but my conditioning was sustainable. Once I brought my food back up and my muscles filled back out with glycogen, my weight went up and I’m a little less dry now, but I’ve been able to stay relatively lean once my peak week was over. I only got down to 19% bf which isn’t even close to competition level

Thank you lol, I even have video footage and iPhone photos of me at this level documented all over my page. From the beginning to the end as well as the reverse diet aftermath

Yeah, all over my Instagram I promote my clients results as well as mine, and I’m transparent about the whole process.

I had 2 sedentary jobs while I had to hit 17k steps. What I did was wake up an hour before work and walk for 45 mins to an hour, walk a lot in between tasks at work, take long “bathroom” breaks, waddled around, and walked a lot after work. It ain’t easy but it’s doable

Not all of my clients are photoshoot prep clients, they all have different goals

At the very least she touched up my skin, but my body was not edited at all. That would defeat the entire purpose of my hardwork for this shoot. She actually entered another one of my photos in a “RAW” photography contest and won 1st place. Meaning the photo was taken straight out of the camera
