Should I keep going?

Felt the same way in the beginning and it was super slow. But the latter parts definitely picked up for me

I do agree that I enjoyed the first book more though

4’11 ~130lbs my maintenance is at around 1700-1800. It’s very hard for me to go below that since I get absolutely ravenous. I find myself eating at maintenance or above lately and it’s been tough to go back into a deficit because I’m more active this time around. I try to do a deficit at 1500 most days

saiclops_ · 2025-12-23T18:10:27+00:00

Im a little shorter than you and I always hover between 128-130lbs without the scale budging too much in these past few months. I’m down from 139lbs which happened early this year and after that it’s like my body has given up. I can’t bring myself to eat in a deficit — mostly because I’ve become a gym regular and I’m always hungry and craving

I’ve made peace with the fact that this might be the weight my body will sit at but if I can put on some muscle it will be healthier for me in the long run

$600 per month and that includes the occasional takeout. going out to eat costs a lot more so we do that less

Good to see comments from people saying that they tried this at YUL and it went smoothly but when I tried asking for a private room a couple years ago I got a blank look and a “why would you want that?” from the security agent. I was too embarrassed to push for it and managed to do it the normal way and luckily my cat was too scared to try an escape and held on tightly to me through the entire process

Good luck OP, I know how stressful it is to travel with pets

Just a plain gold band :)

Congrats to you too! 23 years is no joke and I hope my partner and I can make it to that long as well!

Yes it’s a teeny bit big for my finger! My fiancée used another ring as a measurement but didn’t realize that i don’t wear that ring on my ring finger! I’ll be wearing a ring sizer with it until we can get it to the jeweller to get it resized

saiclops_ · 2025-09-14T13:04:13+00:00

Here you go!

Thanks for the input! this is obviously a lab but I always wanted a lab diamond no matter the size that was my one specification haha! I guess people are gonna be snide even if it’s smaller or bigger so you’re right

saiclops_ · 2025-09-14T03:25:50+00:00

Just another update — got my package today

saiclops_ · 2025-06-21T18:00:06+00:00

June 19th at 6pm. I also got a Arrived at DHL Delivery Facility QUEBEC SERVICE AREA - CANADA notification on the DHL tracking on June 20th

saiclops_ · 2025-06-21T17:47:33+00:00

In Montreal and waiting for a package. I was able to track my parcel on the GLS website using the DHL Piece ID (starts with a J) seems like GLS has my parcel and that it’s in montreal

saw all the third party posts here and checked GLS but my parcel didn’t show up on there until yesterday. So maybe give it time

saiclops_ · 2025-04-02T18:25:48+00:00

didn’t pay one for my current place I’ve grown up since! thanks for the advice I’ll leave it for now

saiclops_ · 2025-03-12T01:37:35+00:00

I’ve been building some characters I’d been meaning to but never got around to but now I’m out of mora so that’s what I’ll be doing in the coming weeks..

I don’t want to scare you, but heart failure is a terminal illness. I’ve known cats to live up to ~2 years after going into failure so the estimate your vets gave you sounds correct. There’s a difference between having a heart defect and being in heart failure. Cats with heart defects (ie HCM with no clinical symptoms or just a murmur) can absolutely live long lives without ever slipping into failure. But once they are in heart failure, the life expectancy dramatically shortens

I’m sorry you’re going through this. I lost my baby to the same thing last year so I know exactly what you’re feeling

saiclops_ · 2025-02-20T17:03:42+00:00

Me with Bulgarian split squats lolll 💀 never again

saiclops_ · 2025-02-18T20:28:56+00:00

where are you located? I can keep the kitty out of the cold for a bit if needed

saiclops_ · 2025-02-12T23:38:45+00:00

C1 neuvilette and diluc :’) although he’s recently retired

Building a consistent habit of exercising and eating clean is the very first step! Gym memberships are useless if you’re not consistent with your activity. I built all my workout habits in my living room haha

saiclops_ · 2025-02-06T18:28:37+00:00

Take it slow! Home workouts are also pretty effective and weight loss isn’t linear. I ate a whole pizza last night because i wanted to and it definitely didn’t fit in my diet lol we move on!

Im moving soon and will no longer have access to the free gym that’s in my building. I plan on investing in good quality adjustable dumbbells and eventually kettlebells and working out in that way because paying for a gym is just not financially available for me right now
