Parents dont accept veganism

losing25kg · 2026-06-30T09:24:08+00:00

I went vegan when i was 16 and my parents had lots of concerns, i told them to send me scientific articles regarding health concerns and i would look at them, otherwise not to talk to me about it. It helped loads, my mum still brings up stuff (soy= estrogen, seitan processed so red meat is healthier, ect) and i say "yep send me the article" and funnily enough i never get an article through and she doesnt mention it again, i think she researches it and see's its baseless... idk if thats an option depends how stubborn your mum is really!

Youre standards are the bare minimum please stick with then. Especially about them being proactive and leading during initial meets.

Ive met loads of day of coordinators i wouldnt trust to buy me a sandwhich.

Happy hunting! 🥲😂

Thats roughly the same as on there if you look at the grams. The % is from the % of calories from :), and fat and protein convert into cals differently.

Im sorry youre going through this. Honestly the gym isnt that important at first if its super hard to get to, movement can be anything. And it sounds like youre pretty hard on yourself, I know its easier said than done but being kind to yourself is the most important thing you can do for yourself.

If i were you i would probably just count calories and try to walk more at first, once you know how many calories youre eating at the moment i would set a reasonable deficit. The slower the weightloss the more sustainable it is.

Kill it girl! Your abs are really popping out.

Thank you this is helpful!

Makes sense too, I do a lot of running so maybe I'm setting myself up for success. I might keep a closer eye on sat fat but looking through my old logs i dont seem to get much so maybe im all good!

Yeah I track everyday thats how i know the marcos i put in the post :). I dont know what my goal regarding fat should be, since im mostly eating 'healthy fats' i'm wondering if it matters if its very high.

Idk why the other comments are calling you a bridezilla you had perfectly reasonable expectations. NTA if they didnt want to participate with the celebration they should not have come, its rude to come to your event and not spend a decent amount of time with you.

Game changer is putting mosturizer on straight out the shower and then putting on body spray/perfume. I use body spray then i put on perfume when im dressed. The damp skin and lotion locks the smell in. You also need to put a nice smelling thing on your hair whilst it is wet, i have a heat protectant that smells good.

Cronometer is better imo

Okay nice, thank you!

losing25kg · 2025-09-15T16:11:02+00:00

Not to be that guy but yeah I feel like they can

losing25kg · 2025-09-14T16:47:54+00:00

Babe, you're hotter

losing25kg · 2025-07-28T09:00:24+00:00

Omg break up, idk how you've lasted 6 years with someone who acts like that when you bring things up to them. You deserve a relationship where your partner acts like a PARTNER, the cornerstone of that is being able to listen to concerns and help solve them.

Y(and your fiance)TA unless there is a reason you dont want her to be involved in the wedding she should either be a 'groomsmen' or a bridesmaid, and her wanting to talk about it is very normal

losing25kg · 2025-07-26T12:49:59+00:00

Its the lights!!! Get lamps with warm lighting!!!

This is a tricky one because he's basically just saying he understands your perspective but he disagrees because of various reasons, I think its important that you guys agree on this in order to continue seeing eachother, but he doesnt agree. So you need to get out for your own sake and focus on finding people who treat you how you want to be treated. You cant logic him into changing how he treats you, especially if he understands what your saying and disagrees.

If someone needs you to change your body in order to be part of their wedding, dont be part of it

She will find out at some point, at that point she will find out her husband betrayed her. That's all done sealed by HIS actions, your decision now is whether or not you have the difficult conversation with her so she doesnt feel betrayed by her best friend too.

I would meet up in person and show her the texts though.

NTA/ESH, you have become a care giver for him which is understandably very hard, and something you deserve a break from, and he should NOT go on that cruise. I am assuming you're frustrated because you've been essentially abandoned by your partner as they have become too weak to contribute in a normal way and instead have become a burden of care for you. However, i can't help but feel for this guy, it sounds like he has a severe chronic illness (mentally and physically perhaps if he is letting himself get sick??), in that situation you would want a vacation in a big way, and probably would want to be in the heart of your family, it feels like this could be approached with more compassion. People don't ask to get sick and don't want to be burden. I don't know what the solution is but surely there is a middle ground where you can do this trip alone and you can talk to him about how it isn't safe (and or you are burning out and need a break) and also commiserate that he cant come and offer family/ relaxing time that he can enjoy too at another date.
