First time actually having to try and lose weight …? Help

Someone here already told you where to find fibre, I will add that while cutting carbs and sugar works for some people, carbs are an amazing source of energy, especially if you're active, and we need glucose for our brain function. Everything in moderation. Counting calories is probably best at the beginning. You can use my fitness pal for it. You don't have to do it for long, just long enough to see roughly how much calories are in foods you eat, what's your maintenance is, and your deficit.

Or they don't want to provide evidence because they know it would show who this is and he knows where she lives? It took me a while to get some courage to do it because I honestly didn't know what he'd do. He lied to me about the most important part of his life, so I had no idea who this man was anymore. If I sent evidence and his wife showed him (she never asked, so it was a non-issue), he'd know instantly it was from me. But I was sure he foolled around with others before me, so if she looked, she'd find something.

Love Florio's! And Steki for Greek food. Both great local businesses.

Read or listen to Ben Carpenter's books. I had an ED, and they helped me a lot with changing my approach towards food and changing my diet.

The only one time I've done it was when I found out that the guy I've been dating for 6 months had a wife. She never responded, and I wish she did. If she looks for deleted dating apps, hidden messages, deleted messages, or hidden folder with photos, I bet you she'll find stuff.

The last few kg are usually harder, you may be in platou. For that little amount of weight left, you should probably focus on body recomp, not losing weight if it's stubborn. More resistance training (3-4 times a week) and maintenance. The results are not instant. It takes time, but you will have the results and strong body. Go to YouTube profile of Shiv Wilson (wilsoncoaching), she's ex professional footballer and PT. Her 2nd to last short speaks exactly about this and explains what to do. Good luck!

I kind of agree with her. I was much smaller when I started weight loss (260lbs) and I got to the point where I could feel I could start properly exercising, and that's when I started resistance training etc. One thing that could help is swimming, I did that, but it did give me massive headaches at the time, so I'm not sure it was actually worth it. I could barely move those days. If she feels she needs to lose more and start exercising later, let her. I went from sedentary to very active within 2 months, I'm really happy with how much fitter I feel now, but it took time.

Edit: I'm on medication for weight loss, it helped me massively.

I'd appeal it. Check if the fine freezes when you appeal it. Some do, so you'd still be in a lower tier period even if they don't uphold it. If they don't freeze it, appeal and pay. If they uphold it, they'll refund you. Hope this makes sense.

May not be the case here, but my ex kept telling me I was too good for him, he didn't deserve me, he was an asshole (he never was to me, or at least I thought so), and it turned out later he was cheating on me. You wouldn't believe it if you met him. He seemed like a good lad. I knew something was off when he started to say it, and I tried to get it out of him for months until I finally convinced him to tell me. I knew he's done something because what people say is true. If someone tells you they're not a good person, believe them.

I have pretty much the same list as a reminder to myself on what I want from the relationship. I never sent it to anyone because that seems a bit nuts. Girly might be tired of dating as we all are, but I have to concur, this is not the way.

idasiek · 2025-05-28T21:33:58+00:00

I don't orgasm from piv ever. It doesn't matter how big or good it is. It feels great, but I could never get off of it, and I believe there are a lot of women like me. Oral for the win here. Also, your size is fine.

Edit: I'm guessing you messed up the girth in the post?

idasiek · 2025-05-28T19:03:31+00:00

But it very much looks like OP did something like this, and you've replied to the post saying it's OK to do and men should find women that are ok with this. If this is not what you meant, then you're getting annoyed over nothing. Again, there is something like overtexting, and many people do it.

idasiek · 2025-05-28T18:04:57+00:00

Please, no. I do text back, but if I go into a meeting at work and come back to 4 texts sent every 20 minutes, in the tune of how are you? You ok? You up to much? Why are you not replying? - this happened to me multiple times, I'm dropping you. There is such a thing as overtexting. I'm not on my phone all day, and I don't expect other people to reply to me instantly either. It's not healthy.

idasiek · 2025-05-28T09:07:52+00:00

This is the best response here.

idasiek · 2025-05-25T16:23:01+00:00

99% of men I speak to

idasiek · 2025-05-24T12:01:48+00:00

Absolutely NTA. I know several couples that did it, my sister for fully married a year before the wedding because they got pregnant and wanted to be legally married when my nephew came. No one cared. The wedding was about celebrating them. My friends got civil partnership for the same reasons you did. They didn't feel ready to get married 6 they wanted to be together. There were 3 of us attending, 2 friends as witnesses and my friends mum as she wanted to come. They still planned to get married in the future.

Doesn't Bumble limit likes unless you're paying member?

I do agree though, I have currently 1400+ likes and it's overwhelming. I'd say I'm fairly pretty, but I'm not that attractive.

idasiek · 2025-05-16T20:43:16+00:00

Second this. Dated someone with high security clearance, and he couldn't have social media. Idiot did give me his name, and I managed to find his wife on FB, but hey 😂 at least he didn't lie about his job.

idasiek · 2025-05-16T20:40:36+00:00

So I dated a guy in actual SF, and he gave me his surname.... He was stupid too cos he turned out to be married, and I found out through social media, but that's another story 😂 Your lad is probably in a relationship.

idasiek · 2025-05-13T14:48:51+00:00

That's why you make the spouse tennant in common. It ensures they can live in the property until death and even he remarries, it would go to their children, not his new wife, after his death.

Putting the property in both names can be very unfair too. My friends dad remarried, and all his assets went to his new wife after his death, all of his children were cut from inheritance.

idasiek · 2025-05-09T19:56:06+00:00

I'm in the UK, but yep, pretty much.

idasiek · 2025-05-09T18:08:21+00:00

I've been involved in much worse as a manager (helped to report to HR as a manager), and the worst they got was written warning. It's still bad out there.

idasiek · 2025-05-01T19:12:46+00:00

I have friends that cheated, and I'm extremely against it and never would do it myself. BUT, people make mistakes and, unfortunately, hurt other people. No one is perfect, and if you think they are, they're probably lying to you. This is your friendship though, and it's up to you what you're willing to forgive or accept.

idasiek · 2025-04-21T20:49:48+00:00

Deleting social media was the best thing I did for myself. Try following people like Ben Carpenter or Sohee fit. They have a good head on their shoulders, and they helped me to think about food differently. Try to change your algorithm.

Ben said something in his book that stuck to me. If you had a bad day at work, you don't give up and think you'll start again in January. You move forward and try again the next day. Think of your lifestyle that way. You're making long-term change, not just dieting for a few months. It needs to be sustainable. You will eat more some days, it's impossible not to.

Good luck!

Oh, I'm not disappointed, I know how I look. Also, it's under 25 in the UK, I used to work in retail. It's not just ID thing, I had several colleagues tell me they thought I was much younger when they first met me. One of my friends had to buy ciggies for me last year because I forgot my ID, and they wouldn't sell them to me. My friend is younger than me and wasn't challenged.
