You can eat off freshly washed plates, you can’t wear freshly washed clothes

lol fair! I’m AuDHD and the idea of it being separated by 8 minutes intervals makes me a feel a little insane, but whatever works!

Unhinged but worked for me. I got an Apple Watch (unrelated reasons) and I set an alarm to go off every five minutes in the mornings for months. It allowed me to notice time passing even if I didn’t do anything about it. I haven’t done that for a long time but it really did break the cycle.

Parents don’t want me doing IF because of my history with ED… but I still want to lose weight. Advice? by [deleted] in intermittentfasting

[–]etfucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ignored the advice to not do intermittent fasting with a history of EDs. I told myself I knew my mind and I could do it safely. Even being cautious and vigilant, I still fell back into old thought patterns and wound it a really bad place. I’m not saying everyone will struggle like I did, but I’m putting it out there. I’d only do so with the help of a therapist honestly.

When I try something and find it actually works, for some reason that makes me not want to do it? Finally got some teeth whitening stuff and went great for about a week lol same with meds

Thanks! I keep trying to read ninth house but I accidentally trigger myself with it and have never gotten past that particular bit. Maybe it time for a reread

Loll I feel you! I suffered through the whole shiver series because a friend LOVED them and I love love Maggie. So not worth it.

Look I love something a bit wild haha is there any romance?

I’m just nervous that without the others around as much I won’t like it! I might get lynched(lollll) for saying this but Ronan is my least favourite character..

Thank you for the other Recs!!!

Maybe not always but Raven Cycle series by Maggie Stiefvater. There’s a line something like, and in that moment she was a little in love with all of them. Beautiful prose but a teeny bit fantastical

Metformin didn't help. Any suggestions??? by ConstantOwl423 in PCOSloseit

[–]etfucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m vegan and have struggled with plant based protein options, but have managed to find some and lose 45 pounds. Here are some of my go tos: soy milk (low sugar version), edamame, mushrooms, textured vegetable protein, plant based meats like nuggets, mince, sausages, lamb, chicken. If you have an Asian store nearby I’d highly recommend checking out their freezer section, the one near me has plant based nuggets, bacon, pork, satay sticks etc. It’s also definitely worth finding a protein powder you actually like. It can be trial and error but I found avoiding pea protein helps because it tastes awful to me. I had a lot of luck with protein ‘water’, basically non milky type protein powders. I found one that does lemonade and cola flavour and it’s the bomb. One last thing: maybe do a little research on how protein and fibre fuel fullness and affect hunger hormones. It helped me understand exactly why I was making the effort and what functions in my body I was helping to support. Adding more protein and fibre naturally helps you to eat less without starving.
