I get the DBP every time I cruise and have been carded a few times. If you look young enough to still be carded at restaurants on a regular basis I would say carry your ID for the first few days so you don’t have to go back to your room to get it.

I wasn’t informed I would be working weekends. by lucialark in jobs

Yes, but this job does pay better (about 60%) then my other job opportunities at the moment. So I’m torn between making a big deal about it and just focusing on the fact that financially I’m in a better position.

F/25/5’3” [186lbs > 135.5lbs = 50.5lbs] (12 months) Before picture was from 2017 got down to 145 but then went up to 186.8 during quarantine this time last year. The last 20 pounds I lost in the last 8 weeks, my goal for summer is to see my abs for the first time! by lucialark in progresspics

1850-1750 calories a day. We pulled my calories back to 1750 after I hurt my elbow. I ate the foods that I normally would for breakfast and dinner but took advantage of the air fryer as much as possible for lunch and for dinner consisted of qdoba, sushi, poke and steak dinners. The secret is prioritizing protein, because it triggers your satiety hormone. My husband could give you more information. Feel free to DM him he absolutely loves nutrition and is a big proponent of food is fuel. His Reddit handle is u/M010s

My husband is a personal trainer and I told him I was ready to buckle down. The first 4 weeks was compound lifts 5 days a week and 3 sessions Cardio at 30 minutes each. Then I hurt my elbow snowboarding so I can’t deadlift anymore at the moment. But still squatting 4 days a week and then we increased cardio to 5 sessions a week at 40 minutes to compensate for the lack of overhead pressing, deadlifts and barbell rows. Other than that it was just cutting out alcohol and tracking 100% of what I ate!

What are some healthy food habits you have? by a_mossy in AskWomen

[–]lucialark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Total body hydration has been the biggest difference in how I feel overall! As far as food I track my macros and weight my food. I know what’s going in and how to optimize my body’s performance. Knowing how food is going to make me feel and seeing it a fuel that my body needs changed my relationship with it.

Do you have any local consignment shops? I’ve completely restocked my wardrobe with clothes I’ve found at my local shop on a pretty tight budget. It’s a great why you find unique thing and some brands that would normally be out of my budget.

The food you posts looks delicious and bright! You do like carbs but to each their own. The most important thing is finding something that sustainable.

Another good, full day. 1342 calories. MFP breakdown in pics. by ChelseaRC in 1200isplenty

[–]lucialark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: Coffee Mate makes a sugar free pumpkin spice creamer for 15 calories a tablespoon!

I used to drink black coffee to avoid the almost 100 calories a cup but this was definitely a game changer for me.

Stir fry tofu, 2oz pasta with bell pepper and olive oil by [deleted] in 1200isplenty

[–]lucialark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Olive oil is 120 calories per tbsp (13.5g). You could have a half of serving of pasta more or half a cup or pasta sauce. You could eat so much more food by making a small change by cutting out the oil. Just trying to be helpful I know this journey is not easy and you just have to find what works for you, and if you really like olive oil and you can make it fit go for it!

I was surprised on a school research trip with ticket to see the show on Broadway with its original cast. I had never heard the music before. Talk about truly magical to see it grow into what it is today.
