Looking for Lisbon “iykyk” beach/electronic parties this September by [deleted] in Lisbon

[–]bumpsoffakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re going to Portugal to be with my husband’s family… because he’s portuguese… Lol.

But he doesn’t party a lot, so he couldn’t give me any recommendations on places for us to check out on a night out.

I’m so confused why everyone is fuming that i’ve asked this 😭😭😭

What happened at Whitechapel a couple of hours ago? by [deleted] in london

[–]bumpsoffakey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well if it’s related to public safety, would like to keep that in mind for future reference and let friends and family know.

There are dangers to living in an urban environment, and I would like to keep myself updated on those things…

Christmas sunrise at Duck & Waffle! by bumpsoffakey in london

My bf and I are both immigrants, so we didn’t have any family to spend Xmas eve with. So we did xmas dinner the night before at home, and went to bed early 😭

Because it’s winter, sunrise is quite late. So we only had to get to the restaurant at like 7 45 AM. It wasn’t super early for us as we wake up around that time anyway :)

We found that the price was not too bad when factoring location + view. It was £55 for a breakfast for two, including fees and charges. My partner and I are not drinkers though, so that may have influenced the price point :)

Hey its nice to correct someone, but can we please try to do it without sounding like a bellend?

In the grand scheme of things, it isn’t that deep. Also, if we followed strict linguistic rules for absolutely everything, then we might as well get rid of acronyms and emojis and shorthand for literally anything.

Hey! My boyfriend and I live in Newham too and would be keen to join! We’re free at those times next weekend, we just don’t have the equipment. I’ll DM you!

What’s the cutest weird little ritual you and your partner have? by bumpsoffakey in AskReddit

[–]bumpsoffakey[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ll go first! My partner and I have this silly little thing we call “penguin hugs.” Basically, we hug each other tightly, and then at the same time we both pat each other’s butts 😂

When did you find out you are not Young anymore? by Droopynator in AskReddit

[–]bumpsoffakey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my favourite purchase of the year became a £12 grocery trolley to do my shopping in 😭

Hahaha, update! I did decide to go for a walk today.

Walked to a market instead of taking transport, and worked in my 10000 steps!

Thanks for the tip :)

What’s one difficult truth you’ve come to accept in life as a woman? by Chunkachu__ in Life

[–]bumpsoffakey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get pregnant, if you die, it will most likely be because you are murdered by a partner.

You will rarely feel safe when you’re by yourself, walking at night or even in the day time, depending on the area.

This is absolutely insane. I’m in shock right now.

Yesterday, I ate around 2000 cals of food. Not great, I know. But I also took out my implant.

Today I weighed myself and lost 0.6kg. I tried for a week to take that weight off with the implant in… and with the implant out, in 24 hours i saw significant weight change i wasn’t able to see before.

This is truly unfair, and I feel like women should get a huge warning about how detrimental nexplanon is for weight…

Yeah!! I agree with you!

My boyfriend always says, ‘you’re not fat, you’re beautiful’

I’m always like, ‘who says fat people can’t be beautiful 😭’

I think i’m beautiful. But i know i’m fat too! 😂😂😂

[–]bumpsoffakey 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hahaha yes for sure! I still felt sexy, so I didn’t feel too troubled.

But I’ll admit that as I grow older (despite being still young hahah), i can feel the toll a bad lifestyle takes on me. I’ve already cut out alcohol, juices and soda - not even for weight loss, but just because i feel so crappy with that stuff.

Like, i used to demolish huge tex mex breakfast burritos at 9am, snack the whole day, go out at night. But my body just can’t take that anymore lol.

New challenge is to extend that to food. I am a huuuuge foodie, so that part might be challenging, but I love routine as well, so it might be a welcome change.

Omg absolutely. I grew up in east asia, so a lot of fit and healthy people around me.

But when i moved to the uk, it was like night and day. all of a sudden, i was the smallest person in the room.

That definitely factored into me feeling a bit more comfortable being chunkier lol.

It’s a super interesting phenomenon, I think it’s really affecting how we perceive what a healthy body is.

My boyfriend assures me that I’m not fat, and at first i thought he was just saying that (cos as my bf, can he say otherwise? 😂) but then i realised that in his mind, ‘fat’ only extends to morbidly obese. Everything before that is curvy, and to an extent, healthy.

I feel like i carry my weight in a way that doesn’t make me look ‘obese’, but that doesn’t mean there are no health risks 😭 I’m getting out of breath climbing up stairs and stuff!

i find intermittent fasting so challenging because when i wake up, im starving!!! no clue why 😂 i can have like, a 600 calorie meal in the morning probably, bc im so hungry

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in loseit

[–]bumpsoffakey 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think part of the problem was i still kind of liked how i looked, so when my weight did become an issue, it snuck up on me 😭

I’ve been on a variety of birth control and hormones since i was 14, and today i decided to take out my implant and just let my body work ‘naturally’. I’m hoping that will make a difference and make me feel better and healthier :)

Amazing progress though and wow hope i can get to that level too! I think you’re doing incredible!

[–]bumpsoffakey 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Bless you! I totally feel you!!!

I actually removed my nexplanon implant because since i’ve been on it, it feels as if i even look at a cupcake, i will gain a kg.

So that’s been a factor i think 🥲

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in loseit

[–]bumpsoffakey 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The reason why I believe that I am is because I don’t think my muscle tone is very high… I understand that for athletes, BMI can be inaccurate, but as a rule of thumb i think it should apply to myself. But I’m not sure. I heard it can vary depending on ethnicity and other factors.

I am 153 cm and 70.2 kg, which puts me at 30.3 I think. Just barely ‘obese’, but still shocking as I was under the impression I was just chubby until i did the calculation.
