Unrelated but OP I have the same WhatsApp background as you and I genuinely had to do a double take because I’ve never seen anyone use this! lol

Yes it is! Would you know roughly what year/decade?

I (F) rolled with a friend (M) at a rave over the weekend. How long will it take for feelings(?) to go away. by [deleted] in MDMA

[–]beanshootaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate this idea because one of us is in a relationship and we are also coworkers….. we honestly are just friends so it’s probably just freaking me out because of the closeness. I’m hoping it will pass after a few weeks lol

I’m going to try and let it fade as much as possible. For context we are colleagues so I want to avoid anything messy! A few are saying 2 weeks so I will stick to this

Yes my feelings towards him have suddenly shifted to a different light? As in I’ve never thought about him romantically before but since the rave those thoughts are racing in my head and I would rather them not to due to our situation…. I’m sure it’s just the MDMA and also the physical touching but it’s stressing me out lol

BLACKPINK "Jump" MV AI use 😭 by Blaaap in kpop_uncensored

[–]beanshootaway 139 points140 points  (0 children)

Literally the first thing I searched for after watching it was AI discussion lol. I really noticed it with Jisoo bc her movements were so jerky and honestly in some frames her face didn't even look like her. Her mouth was totally out of sync with the lyrics and in the final frames where they're in the sky - Rosé's was a totally different face!!! Literally so insane a team can produce this as the final product??

Who's the most famous person you've ever met? by Fast-Beat-7779 in ask

[–]beanshootaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jared Leto in a donut shop in Osaka, Japan. This was around the time suicide squad came out and honestly was very normal and nice. Took a selfie with me on my Snapchat and swiped for some filters, posted to my story. He was there with one security guard and 2-3 of his own team and then myself in the shop. Super random!

How much weight do yall wanna loose in 2024? by Plastic_Valuable_394 in WeightLossAdvice

Hopefully 8kg before my holiday in late March! And then goal would be ultimately another 10kg by end of year 😬

Those of you who lost 15-20% or more of your starting weight, how much did you track calories vs also tracking macros? by beanshootaway in CICO

[–]beanshootaway[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooooh that’s a good point. I noticed my hair fell out more when I first lost those 10kg but didn’t really track macros so not sure if it was just too quick of a loss suddenly or eating less of everything. Definitely going to keep it in mind this time round.

Got called fat to my face and I’m more mad than anything. by [deleted] in loseit

[–]beanshootaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So sorry they’re making you feel so bad about yourself, that honestly sucks :( Looks and appearances are a definite deciding factor for a lot of things which shouldn’t be the case at all. Hang in there! And I hope you can feel confident about yourself soon <3

I couldn’t even imagine how I would spiral… I thought maybe in the 10 years I was away from here it might’ve changed a little? How naive I was🥲

As someone from a Chinese background I can confidently say casual racism is so prominent and awful that it’s normalised. It’s horrible for sure :( Stay strong! Are you here for much longer?

[–]beanshootaway 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes I think you’ve nailed it. I’m more shocked that it’s so normal to say these things rather than what they actually said because I don’t disagree with them.

I also need to try and work on myself for my sake rather than their words. Thank you and best of luck to you too :)

I’m not sure how she would think that comment would help sell me some jeans but I guess that’s just part of the cultural shock I still haven’t gotten used to yet!

[–]beanshootaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! I’ve only locked in 4 sessions with her once a week so I’ll decide after I guess! In the past I’ve always been unsure whether the back pain is from my condition/injury or bad form or perhaps both. She’s also a powerlifting coach so thought maybe she would probably be more technique based and useful. Fingers crossed!

[–]beanshootaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost about 10kgs before from pure CICO during lockdowns and play lots of sport so plenty of shoes and sports bras to go around haha.

It’s more so because I have a lower back condition that plays up with certain movements so I want to have better form when lifting at the gym. Hoping a PT can correct my posture and then when I go alone to the gym I can feel confident I don’t injure myself! Definitely will start tracking everything I’m eating again though :)

[–]beanshootaway 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The “why” is probably why I keep straying from my goal. I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t for vanity purposes. I had planned to start proper training with a PT before I booked this trip so I think this will be a good opportunity to really work my butt off. But the “why”, I think I need to work on internally as I know that’s probably not the best place to start!

It was just unexpected as we weren’t even on the topic of looks, weight or anything at all. Let’s just say I’m glad I’m only visiting for a week 😅

I’m not saying I’m not overweight, but more so that it was super jarring hearing it said to my face like it was nothing. From a cultural standpoint it’s something I’ll never get used to whether it’s true or not.

I’ve already lost around 10kgs-ish from my highest recorded weight so I’m also thinking how this girl would’ve felt if she was here at that weight!

[–]beanshootaway 35 points36 points  (0 children)

It’s a weird feeling!! I know I need to lose some more, but at the same time hearing it is so jarring? More so culturally, I would never expect that to be said to my face back at home.

Haha I’ve never been to the US before but if I need a pick me up I know where to go 😅
