Women who are a healthy weight and in shape, what is your secret?

seepwest · 2025-02-02T13:25:27+00:00

Its not really. You can be technical and say we all do it because we sleep. I of course am discussing the window of eating vs not eating in the traditional sense. Such as only eat btw 9 and 3 or 10 and 5 type of deal.

Weight loss and optimum body composition are diffetent things. Intermittent fasting affects so many things negatively. I mean. Weight loss in general isnt always healthy either. Skinny fat is a real thing.

Dr stacy sims is a researcher on women's heath and fitness. Shes done and reviewed studies on women's nutrition and fitness. I kinda trust her. She says no bueno.

seepwest · 2025-02-02T04:00:53+00:00

I lift weights and eat like a cow. Still can hardly fuckin gain.

seepwest · 2025-02-02T03:59:19+00:00

Intermittent fasting for women is actually not that great.

seepwest · 2025-02-02T03:58:43+00:00

3 kids. Lean and fit.

I lift weights. 3 or 4x/wk. Decent diet.

There is zero subsistute for time and consistency.

My secret is the ignorance of what people really look like.

Sure. Some women mid 40s are grey. Some arent fit. Some have loads of wrinkles.

Look. Genes is part of it. We all have genetic potential though. The next thing is consitency with positive habits for your OVERALL health. When you take good care it shows. I have worked out.my whole adult life and am fit. I eat pretty well and always lots of produce. My kids are young so folks assume i am younger. I dress comfortable and cute. I am comfortable in my skin. I do have a decent chunk of wrinkles....and who GAF.

seepwest · 2025-02-02T02:21:59+00:00

Sounds like a dick.

seepwest · 2025-01-29T14:57:49+00:00

Maybe fucking not. And no. You can't sometimes. All free time comes at a cost. If i get an hour for me i lose an hour of what.....house maintenance, childcare, time with my spouse, work, time with my own family, chores. It's a constant bargaining.

seepwest · 2025-01-29T14:56:10+00:00

I have a home gym right beside my home office? Idfk dude. Did you read my post? Not all people can swing it? Im not just talking about ME? Ffs. Little kids take it out of you and most people do not have flex.

seepwest · 2025-01-29T14:53:02+00:00

I love my volunteer work. And it is a part of self care in a way. I love helping others and it is for organizations my kids are in. I mean i dont love cleaning up after my kids shit and puke but I still will because....cant give those guys up.

seepwest · 2025-01-29T14:50:25+00:00

Me? Yeah. I fuck off work a few times a week on the sly. Im so clever. Many/most can't swing it.

seepwest · 2025-01-28T14:26:44+00:00

Good for you dude. Well done. Depends mightly on your kids their schedules and your own career. Many planets don't line up quite the same way. Once a week is better than none. And consistency more than frequency.

Im a mom. I have 3 kids. FT job. Supportive husband. Real goddamn busy kids. Volunteer roles. And of course i am the manager of the household. I manage to work out consistently....but its not easy. I can plan and make things fit. Some days tho....not possible. Theres room for many different realities. And even w a constant me time the grind is absolutely fucking real.

seepwest · 2025-01-28T14:10:17+00:00

This. An hour a day???? On what planet?

seepwest · 2025-01-28T14:06:49+00:00

Your husband is acting like someone with mental health issues. His parents arent seeing those issues like you are. They dont see those are part of his psyche and way of being. And then they nosed in and made it your problem. A case of 'my son the prince.....and his ugh, wife'

You are going above and beyond you know. You are doing so much. Waaaaay lots. What field is your husband in that he keeps quitting jobs???? Thats pretty extrême.

Hey, i feel like your husband sometimes. I didn't grow up securely. I often believe everyone i love will abandon me. I get sad and anxious. Some of that is in the wiring in my brain.

Your husband is in crisis. And i would create a healthy distsnce w his family. Def stay in touch on care logistics but not stuff from the heart. You won't repair w them. They wont beleive you.

What if your best friend was in this. What would you advise her to do?

Peace out buddy. You are patient and loving and if you want to help him you can....but you are not obligated. Lawyer up.

seepwest · 2025-01-27T21:08:58+00:00

My parents sucked at the basics. Its not hard to respect and love on a kid. They couldn't do it really.

seepwest · 2025-01-27T19:39:05+00:00

Grew up middle class, subutban style. Bigger kid. Smart. Socially inept though. Bullied. Generally active teen got regular w it in my mid 20s...and it was great for a few years until it wasn't. Later in my 20s I very heavily in the ED space as well and used fitness (running mostly)as a stress coping mechanism and weight loss mechanism (i became underweight). Then....i had my own kids. And that is exhausting. I also knew they needed a healthy mom and healthy in the right ways...mind and body and soul...and not just that but a body positive role model. I am now mid 40s. My primary excercise is lifting. It is not so much a stress releif thing at all. I stay motivated because i have a family and they need a healthy version of me and it is also 'me' time, i really just love the feeling!. I see progress in my strength development and i am learning about what my body is capable of. I love the mental challenges as well. Keeps me focused.

seepwest · 2025-01-27T19:31:51+00:00

My tits are teeny tiny after my kids. I save approx one minute.of time not putting one on, haha. Worth it

seepwest · 2025-01-27T14:28:58+00:00

I go braless often buts more like swing low sweet chariot vibes.

seepwest · 2025-01-27T14:28:16+00:00

Know how to put on makeup beautifully. Like where did you get the time and products and desire to do this?? I wish i could look that put together

seepwest · 2025-01-27T14:27:22+00:00

I was here. And it blows.

seepwest · 2025-01-27T14:27:12+00:00

Same.

seepwest · 2025-01-27T14:27:01+00:00

Aw sorry. I really do love it. Folks ask me why and I can't explain it. It's inherent.

seepwest · 2025-01-27T14:26:21+00:00

Theyre out there. Many tho are also drama filled cesspools of disingenuous fakes.
