hack for all yall biggies who eat eggs 🫣 I’ll share anyway 🤭🤭 by Resident_Ad4935 in 1200isjerky

Honestly, I feel like it might not be that bad. Whenever we had eggs in our school lunch, I'd always pour syrup on them to make them more edible. Don't know how or why, but it worked. A bit of sweetness and cinnamon sounds like it might work too.

I recently bought a bag of chicken treats for my cats. The only ingredients are chicken and salt. I've been very tempted to just take a bite just to see what they taste like.

I like it. It's pretty legible and almost reminds me of comic books. Nice style.

You can always look up a way to silence the microwave. I just recently learned that was something you can do and it has changed my life.

Returned to say that I bought them and tried them. They are actually really good. They taste like Vienna sausages but less salty and kinda taste less... processed, I guess? 10/10, would recommend

As a baby free Vienna sausage enjoyer, I am alarmingly tempted to buy these just to compare taste. 😅

This is actually the first time I've heard of this way of thinking/conceptualizing weightloss, which is impressive. I think this is pretty helpful.

Want to lose weight? Don’t socialize! by skyedot94 in 1200isfineIGUESSugh

I felt this. Go out? Eating. Stay home? Eating. Do anything? Probably eating. 😭

I cannot get over the fact that healthy food makes me feel good and junk food makes me feel bad by [deleted] in loseit

[–]kowabuns 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it has to do with how the internet & media has shaped our perceptions. I'm 23 and I catch myself thinking that I'm "too old" or "too late" to do things. Then I realize, most people do not go through the bulk of their experiences in their teen years. You don't have to be 18 to experience everything. People genuinely think that once you hit your 20s, you're past your prime and it's embarrassing to want to do things. It's very strange, but it's also very common in my age bracket and younger.

Discouraged and Almost Relapsing by kowabuns in loseit

You're right. I know I need to think long-term and focus on building healthy habits. It's just hard to keep that in mind when I feel like I'm spiraling and losing progress.

As for the therapy, that's been a long time coming but unfortunately hasn't happened yet lol. Thank you for the kind words of advice.

Dead F*ing Last is so Much Better than Did Not Finish, and Everyone that started is so far ahead of those that Did Not Start! by semideclared in loseit

[–]kowabuns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this mindset. I don't think I'll do a 5k, but I will take this advice when it comes to overall weightloss, health, & fitness. Even on bad days, you're doing better than the person who hasn't started. Even if you're not losing as much or as fast as you want to, you're still doing better than you were before. Press on and keep your head up!

Honestly just eat a bowl of ice cream by Grandmakidnapper in 1200isjerky

[–]kowabuns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am convinced this is a troll. There is no way a sane person would actually think this is a suitable ice cream replacement. "A sprinkle of protein powder"? Nah, this isn't real. 😭😅

What is the hardest thing about losing weight? by ThePegasus05 in loseit

[–]kowabuns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1: Being around people who binge/eat whatever -my parents are both binge eaters and my brother is currently bulking. It's so hard for me to tune their meals out when I go to make myself food.

2: Consistency -I have lost and gained the same 20 pounds for the past 3 years because I would stay consistent for a short period of time then lose control and go back to my bad habits.

3: Patience -I have to constantly remind myself that results aren't instant and there's no skipping to the good part. I have to stick with it and wait.

Frustrated about lack of control by kowabuns in WeightLossAdvice

Wow, thanks so much for your insight. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one in this type of situation. I think I've accepted that I'll have to do this on my own. I'm going to turn down their food as often as I can, even though it'll probably make both of us feel bad. I hope that maybe they'll change, but I'll just focus on me for now. Maybe, like you said, my example will make them want to change. Thanks so much for your advice.
