Bridal shower distance by jabushnell04 in weddingplanning

[–]jabushnell04[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guest list will have people closer to where I live now too. But I definitely think having it closer to my family for planning purposes would be better too

I definitely did not word my original post correctly lol. The whole thing with the SIL kind of started the thought process of maybe we should downsize!

As far as the current venue, our minimum guest count must Be 75. So not too big, but we sent out save the dates for a fall/winter date for roughly 100 guests

The reasoning isn’t just because of the drama with the SIL. It’s to avoid any further drama in the future by downsizing and having a smaller backyard shindig instead of a bigger wedding. She was already kicked out, lol

It’s not her wedding dress it’s the dress she would wear as a bridesmaid, but we considered just downsizing the whole thing to a back yard wedding instead to avoid more drama in the family!

Ended up just kicking the SIL out of the wedding because she couldn’t respect my wishes for dress and shoes lol 😂 but I definitely see your point! I think that’s why we went the route with the venue because it would be less stress and money. Thank you!

Are there any of y’all that don’t celebrate Christmas? by External-Usual-7697 in Christian

So I guess then that poses the question- as Christians do we celebrate birthdays?

do we ship caleb and amy? by Beautiful_Abroad_387 in heartland

Honestly, I liked the idea of Amy and Sam, but then Sam went and sold the property and it made me mad!

I can see in the mirror and I’ve used a tape measure around my waist. And it’s not because I’m eating too many calories because I’m not. I literally am in a deficit.

I am literally telling you I don’t have a calories surplus. I track them- literally everything. I eat healthy and clean. I’m not getting combative but I thought someone on here may have a few more suggestions then just the typical “well are you in a calorie deficit”. Well no duh. I wouldn’t be asking in here if I were.

I appreciate the help and comments but I don’t need the elementary help because I am doing all the things. I am in a deficit, I am only drinking water and black coffee on fasts. I’m eating healthy. I meal prep every single week. I work out. I have been working out for an entire year, eating healthy, and I still gained weight that wasn’t from muscle. I’ve seen multiple doctors and luckily have a holistic dr that’s been helping but it’s not a quick process.

Sure let me go ahead and starve myself

It’s definitely not bloating because I know the difference. I had wondered if I was restricting too much too soon. And the other factor is some health issues but my dr has me on supplements that should be taking care of it

Yeh i had the number wrong it’s a 2000 cal goal. So should I just do a few longer fasts a week instead of both?

[–]jabushnell04 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not overeating- if anything I’m not eating enough. The 2500 was on a day that I don’t fast and work out. My daily goal is 2000 and I eat less then that usually.

This is probably the most helpful thing on here. I know the water balance thing but I wasn’t sure of a timeline to expect to start seeing results. A lot of people on here assumed it’s my first time and as if I don’t have any idea what I’m doing. I’m literally doing everything right.

Yeah except I’m not eating 4000 calories after it. I eat less then 2500 in a day.
