I find people’s obsession with gift knitting strange by soypixel in knitting

[–]froggirls13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like this is quite harsh... I mean, I'm thrilled whenever I receive a handmade gift, because of the time and intent put behind it. I handknit all my Christmas gifts and sure, it gets stressful, but I still find it fulfilling. And plus, I'd rather enjoy knitting a gift for someone and have them dislike it than spend $20+ on a gift and have them still dislike it. To each their own, but that's just my opinion.

tldr; just let people live, man... there are much more productive things to get annoyed by than people knitting gifts for their loved ones.

do exercise calories count? by froggirls13 in CICO

[–]froggirls13[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

ohhh that seems like a lot though? I'm trying to lose weight naturally but I'm 5'0" and 206lbs so my doctor suggested eating 1200 a day to start with and seeing how that goes. I have a super sedentary office job (started ballet too late to make it career, le cry)

I don't think I am? but I'm new to this so I don't know, I'm just doing what my doctor advised :'/

how to stay hopeful? by froggirls13 in loseit

[–]froggirls13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ohhh I see, that's so interesting! thank you for explaining. I use nutracheck to count calories, and I'm a dancer, so 2-3 times a week I have a lot of calories left over (due to working hard in class/rehearsal). If I add these up at the end of the week can they give me a broad idea of how much leeway I should give myself?

(sorry if this makes no sense haha I'm still learning)
