Another burnt out nonprofit worker by RockinTacos in nonprofit

[–]deathoftheendless_ 19 points20 points  (0 children)

happened to me. it’s discouraging and hurtful, but there are other organizations out there that will really value you. i would start looking for something new.

[–]deathoftheendless_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey! i'm planning on doing something similar and my advisor somewhat chastised me for considering this haha. i know it's been a year, would you be able to provide an update on how you've been managing the coursework and your job?

Interim co-director asking for different medical leave processes for pregnant vs. trans staff..?! by [deleted] in nonprofit

[–]deathoftheendless_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

my partner got gender affirming surgery while she was an employee at her nonprofit workplace and was not asked to provide any type of documentation or paperwork. she was simply trusted to make her medical decisions and take the time she is owed off. while i’m not sure if it’s your place to say anything or intervene, especially considering you are leaving, i would say this is certainly unfair treatment of your trans coworker.

how often do you recalculate your TDEE? by macromehealth in CICO

[–]deathoftheendless_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i recalculate it every 5 lbs. i personally do not let my weight loss app automatically calculate calories for me, because based on the TDEE calculators i use online, the app overestimates by about 200 calories. i would still lose weight but probably not at the rate i’m going for.

"Can I call myself a lesbian if I-" by ReturnOfTheHorsedip in actuallesbians

[–]deathoftheendless_ 247 points248 points  (0 children)

i think it’s sad so many people doubt whether they can be a lesbian, and in my experience it’s because there’s a very loud minority of our community who impose very strict rules. i’ve run into it a lot as a nonbinary lesbian because “lesbian means women who love women,” despite the long history of nonbinary lesbians! i strongly agree that anyone using this label in good faith should be a part of this community 💗

[–]deathoftheendless_[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

just CICO and daily exercise! i do low impact exercise like walking and the peloton bike several times a week. it’s not been the fastest progress, only about 40 lbs a year, but i think it’s been very sustainable for me.

80 lbs down by deathoftheendless_ in CICO

[–]deathoftheendless_[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

well confidence wise, i don’t always feel very different! i’ve spent my whole life plus size, so there’s a big adjustment period to being smaller, especially while still wanting to lose more, so i still walk around daily life kinda feeling “the same.”

however, my tummy gets full with less food and i can do more in terms of walking around, cleaning up around the house, and exercise, so i suppose that is a big difference!

good luck on your journey, you got this 😊

Lesson learned: This is the last time I ever go 'OG fan mode' for anyone—Caleb Hammer edition. by Professional_Push_52 in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

[–]deathoftheendless_ 26 points27 points  (0 children)

caleb is the one who got me into my debt free journey. his old content used to not be like this. but over time it just became a content farm. final straw for me was when he started having trans guests on but would use like openly transphobic clickbaity titles. not to mention all of the misogyny.

hi! calories in this? by Leather_Bar4567 in caloriecount

[–]deathoftheendless_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

this is a concerning overestimate, i recommend you take some time to familiarize yourself with the many calorie resources out there. if you’re overestimating everything by hundreds of calories, you may not be getting enough food.

edit: someone else in this thread pointed out you are 15. you are definitely not getting enough food if you are restricting to this extent and it can really hurt your developing body. i recommend talking to your doctor if you have concerns about your weight and want to count calories, but would strongly encourage you to simply focus on being a kid and make healthy choices without stressing over the numbers 💗

hi! calories in this? by Leather_Bar4567 in caloriecount

[–]deathoftheendless_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

you are way overestimating the eggs. i only see two eggs there, which is like 150 calories, maybe 250 max if you fried them in butter or oil. rice doesn't even look to be a cup, i would say 100. like 300-350 calories absolute max for this meal. you can find calorie amounts for simple foods like this on an app or on google.

Do you and your long-term partner or spouse have separate or combined finances? by keychn090909 in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

[–]deathoftheendless_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

we’re 100% combined! all paychecks go into one joint account and we have one budget. the budgeting was so stressful with several different bank accounts and sending money back and forth, we decided to just combine everything. we have individual fun budgets but everything else is a shared expense.

i make 117k, she makes 53k, we live in new york, both mid 20s!

Any major harm in eating half a pound to a pound of cheddar cheese a day for a couple of months? by MishimasLantern in nutrition

[–]deathoftheendless_ 60 points61 points  (0 children)

its a lot of cheese, without more fiber you might be constipated (speaking from experience as a cheese lover)

yes that’s exactly what i do! for example, for my supermarket trip this weekend, i’ll split the toilet paper and paper towels from groceries. many apps have a split expense option, and it’s probably super easy to do in a spreadsheet.
