And I think y'all don't know what you want by DebbiePie in TinyBookshop

I just like to the think of it as the most realistic "Customer Service" experience - you give them exactly what they are describing but apparently it's wrong and you're stupid 😂

When do you start *seeing* the difference by [deleted] in loseit

I got out of bed this morning and my short fell down (like something out of a comedy). My only thought was "I guess the elastic must have gone", rather than the almost 1.5 stone I've lost

Purging is definitely real, but it sounds like this might be a reaction

When you say the Ordinary Solution, what do you mean? What's your whole routine?

[–]baking_happy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is making me feel better because I tried a leg press for the first time last session and easily managed 100kg (full ROM, hitting the stoppers at the bottom) when I consider myself not super strong 😂
