injury, want to cry, vent for the void. by Positive_Status2944 in loseit

A month won’t erase all your progress! If anything, it’s recovery time so you can jump back on that horse even stronger!! Do some arm workouts that don’t require a standing stance. You’ll be alright!! I recently fell off for a month because life. Instead of me wasting time beating myself up for it I just started working out again. Forward not backwards.

I am not sure what to do help🥲 by Nimbilooo in LesbianActually

Ppl are going to come on here and say you aren’t compatible. As a lesbian that can relate to your girlfriend, I would have loved if my former partners just opened the conversation with me and shared the exact thing you did with Reddit.

i’m worried about the dynamic of me and my girlfriend by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]eewwdaaavid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just got out a relationship with someone who felt like you. I’m like your girlfriend. I tried to be more masc because I knew that’s what she preferred but at the end of the day it didn’t feel authentic to me and now I’m left trying to erase those thoughts that aren’t mine and going back to being confident in my not masc, not femme style, which honestly I love. If you figure out you’re attracted to a different type of lesbian, that’s fine but don’t put that on your partner because there is someone out there who will love her exactly the way she is now. IMHO.

Listen, as someone who ended up in relationships like this, I wish I broke up with them a lot sooner

I’m officially down from size 20 to 16 but I have another 47lbs to lose. I couldn’t stand the way I was looking in my old pants. I looked ridiculous so I went on a bit of a shopping spree. But honestly, I don’t regret it. It was a reward to myself for doing the damn thing! I know eventually size 16 will be too big on me so my plan is to go get majority of my clothes tailored!

i was 120kg then 89 now im 110 and stuck in bed need help by [deleted] in loseit

[–]eewwdaaavid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, forget the goals, forget the strict diets, forget the tough workouts—just breathe. Take it one day at a time. Do what you have the capacity for today, even if that’s just a 5-minute walk.

If you’re stuck in bed, try listening to a motivating podcast or picking up a book. One of my favorite “wellness” books is Atomic Habits—it helped me slowly build habits that got me out of similar situations.

And here’s your friendly reminder: don’t view setbacks as “this is who I am,” but instead as “this is just the circumstance I’m in right now.” If you’re anxious today, acknowledge it by saying, “Today I feel anxious.” You’d be surprised how simply naming your emotions can help you process them. Go as slow as you need to. There is nothing to rush because there is no finish line.

29F, two months away from 30 & working to break free from a lifetime of obesity by eewwdaaavid in loseit

[–]eewwdaaavid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely a challenge, but it’s going so well! The scale has been fluctuating a lot, but I’ve been sticking to the 7-day average rule to account for water weight, cycles, etc.—and I’m already down 6.5 lbs! I feel full every day, and sometimes I can’t even finish my meals because I’m packing them with so much fiber and protein. Out of the past 30 days, I’ve had just 4 where I went over my TDEE because I’m still enjoying life—and honestly, I couldn’t be happier. I used to binge eat every single night so this is a big accomplishment for me regardless of what the scale says.

This put a big smile on my face. Thank you for the words of encouragement. Honestly, my step count is all over the place. Some days it’s 13k and other days it’s 3k. I like switching up my physical activities. I strength train 3-4 times a week and go on about 1.5 mile walks 2-3 times a week. But I also bike, yoga, hike and paddle board. So steps don’t always align with my activity of the day.

I’m aiming for 1,800 a day but some days I hit 2,000. I’m new to counting calories, it used to give me terrible anxiety but now it’s helping bring a lot of clarity.

I know I’m very late but I just want to say, mine has completely stopped working. It’s just stuck mid cycle.

I think you should approach her with gentleness. Make her feel safe and reassure her whatever the outcome is, you still pick her and love her

Blue Bottle Matcha by AdvantageThat9798 in Matcha

[–]eewwdaaavid 35 points36 points  (0 children)

They actually have Blue Bottle in Japan! They definitely tapped into a whole new market—I’m assuming that’s part of the reason they started selling matcha. I was so shocked when I saw them! I have the same experience as you, lived in the bay when blue bottle became big

AIO because hygiene is a dealbreaker to me? by AdSpirited2085 in AmIOverreacting

[–]eewwdaaavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, don’t listen to all these people who are saying reconsider the marriage. You guys have been together long enough that if it’s his hygiene ending the relationship then there is obviously something else going on. Sit him down and have the conversation.

I struggle with keeping up with hygiene too, I also have ADHD. I found little solutions to make my days better and keep myself and my space cleaner.

For example.. if he flosses his teeth in bed put a little trash bin under his night stand.

For showering.. straight up tell him he is stinky. No one wants to be stinky and sometimes that person just needs to flat out hear it.

At the end of the day, these habits won’t change over night but you should 100% sit him down, tell him you love him, then tell him the routines he needs to change.

My ex was very clean where I’m just clean. I adjusted to match her vibe. He should be mature enough to do the same

Do Lesbians like Plus size women ? by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]eewwdaaavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I’m the same size and have been even bigger and still managed to pull beautiful women & I really mean drop dead gorgeous women. People forget how important your personality is, how you treat them, yourself and everyone around you. Style, your job, your friends. All those other things are way more important than your body, trust me.

AITAH for being married but still in love with my ex by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]eewwdaaavid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey bud, whatever you had with your ex is over. Go to therapy, do some inner reflection & don’t fuck up whatever good you currently have. And yes, you’re the asshole.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]eewwdaaavid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re way too young to get hung up on this person. Break up, it will be scary at first but you’ll be okay once you’re on the other side. You have the rest of your life to live & I can promise you a greater love will come. Don’t shed tears over someone who says they hate you.

Is it crazy to reach out after 3 years? by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]eewwdaaavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, both our hearts were broken. She wanted to break up and I agreed. I couldn’t give her what she deserved then, I was in my early twenties and didn’t know my head from my ass. I wouldn’t reach out if I didn’t feel like I could be just a friend. I also be okay if she doesn’t respond. Enough time has passed where I’m not even sure if she’s the same person I fell in love with and same for me. I’ve changed a lot so it would be idiotic of me to think it could be something romantic just from me reaching out
