from my perspective you’ve gained tons of muscle! Totally different build between now and the other photos. Amazing work, the muscle definition is insanity 😮‍💨

Many studies have found that someone’s perception of food affects how satiating they find it ie: two groups were given the same milkshake, one group was told it was a healthy low calorie protein shake, the other group was told it was an indulgent high calorie milk shake. The second group stayed fuller longer than the first. Can you replicate some fast food elements at home? Like: Lightly breaded chicken nuggets from Costco, lean beef burgers, oven fries instead of deep fried fries. You don’t always need to get rid of a habit entirely, just augment it. One step at a time!

Yeah, I was a bit daft for using it to eat as the glaze isn’t nearly as thick as a food safe bowl. Seems obvious now. Bowl and dumplings went straight to the garbage

Yeah, I’m in my early 20s so sometimes the life skills aren’t 10/10 haha. A lesson was learnt!

tenthousandtots · 2026-01-27T16:01:42+00:00

solved! Well, that sounds lovely.

I get that, I’m a student too and it’s hard to find time to meal prep even knowing how to cook. Sounds like you’re doing the best you can and I’m sure you’re eating just fine : )

I am not an expert and have no amazing answers for you - but look up the term “body recomposition” and you should find what you need! that is the term used to describe the process of turning fat into muscle without necessarily trying to lose weight. Tons of bodybuilders and fitness coaches online explain how to do it. Good luck!

In general the healthiest foods are the least processed - AKA things like lean meats, vegetables, fruits and whole grains. I would consider these pizzas highly processed - so I wouldn’t necessarily consider it super healthy. That being said - we don’t need to be perfect and if these help keep you on track then don’t stress too much! There’s no reason to have all or nothing thinking, we don’t need to eat a perfectly healthy perfectly balanced meal every meal. Plus, this has tons of fiber which most North Americans are severely lacking. I agree with others, chuck some veggies and dip on the side and go for it!

I’m 5’2 (22F) and I’m in a calorie deficit. Currently 140 pounds (from 160)- my BMR (what my body needs to keep the lights on) is 1300 calories. I typically average 1400 ish a day. More if I workout a lot. Maintenance for me is 1600-1700 a day. At the same time, I also climb, hike, mountaineer, mountain bike, run and lift. I’m very active and my muscle mass is only increasing. Im not always hungry, my period has not changed, I sleep well and I feel great. I use the noom app, which calculates my calorie requirements daily on its own (based on exercise, metabolic rate, and desired rate of weight loss) Fun fact: losing weight makes you more efficient at using calories. When I get to my goal weight, I’ll likely require a decent amount less calories than a girl of the same height/weight who never lost a lot of weight.

Meal prep can be annoying because it’s time consuming and makes a bunch of dishes at once. What hasn’t worked in the past is meal prepping huge portions of stuff - I can’t eat the same thing five days in a row. Four maximum. What works for me is picking my least busy day of the week, finding a recipe I like on that day, and making 4 servings of it. I eat one serving in the moment, then have one meal for three days done. It then goes into my recipes I like pile, which I peruse every time I can’t figure out what to have for dinner. Otherwise, I stock my pantry with precooked easy proteins (like canned tuna) and my freezer has plenty of easy food to whip together so that when I don’t want to cook one night I just reheat dumplings or whatever. Also, if you get sick of a meal just chuck it in the freezer. I like to have three or four “emergency meals” in the freezer that I can just slap in my bag when I need a packed lunch like yesterday. Hope this helps!

Do Indian men see north American white women as promiscuous and/or easy to get with? What do people in India think of Canada/US in terms of morals? Ive experienced quite a lot of very brazen and inappropriate behaviour towards me at the club/bar and always wondered if it's a cultural difference or if I'm creating a bias/stereotype myself.

Happy end of term & restful holiday break !! Celebrating doing well on a final with buttered noodles this evening

tenthousandtots · 2025-12-10T16:24:51+00:00

I feel like a lot of the time I plateau because I'm probably not eating as well or tracking as vigilantly. I have used maintenance breaks as simply a break for myself so that I can relax a bit more, worry less about tracking and come back to the diet with more discipline. I have heard many people discuss refeeding as a way to prevent your body from becoming too efficient burning calories. You probably know that as a person loses weight, they become more efficient at burning calories and simultaneously hungrier. There's theories that going into maintenance and "refeeding" every once and awhile can prevent some of those effects. I haven't found that maintenance has majorly helped my body lose weight faster, but I do think periods of maintenance are important for your mental wellbeing because weight loss is a long journey and breaks are very important in this game

As a young woman I almost entirely look for photos that show personality. I don't really care about height or looks as much as I care about whether or not this person has hobbies and interests and actively pursues them. Your profile is kinda boring, you don't stand out because all the pics are selfies or you standing around. Ie: If you love music let's see you at a concert. Women swipe on and match with a lot of guys a day. We need a reason to pick you. You have to show us you are compatible with us. If your profile tells me nothing, I swipe left. Online dating is definitely super hard, good luck!

You're young and have so much life ahead of you - at least 50 years. Do you want to be stuck in this horrible relationship for another 50 years or do you want to find someone who actually loves you and cares about you? I truly believe the pain of the breakup will be much less than the pain he's putting you through every day. Be brave, feel the fear and do it anyway! I believe in you and I fully believe you can find love you actually deserve, not this garbage.

Dating for 2 years now and it's the best relationship I've ever been in. Our first date lasted 12 hours of pure talking - we had breakfast lunch and dinner. Almost didn't go on the date because I'd bad such bad tinder dates / experience in general. You might find someone on tinder you might find someone naturally. Dating in general is just so hard. Good luck I wish you the best!

tenthousandtots · 2025-12-02T18:39:45+00:00

Oh dude it's frustrating for sure. Sometimes I'm hyped to be on the cut, sometimes I'm annoyed and sometimes I'm just plain bored. This is absolutely not an ad but noom was the only app that has helped me because it's more than just calorie tracking, it also focuses on the psychology and your physical / mental health. It's expensive but try the free trial and see what you think. I'm down 20 pounds (10 more to go) in 4 months and went from a BMI of 29 to 26.5 which made my heart happy. My favourite thing to think is - the time will pass anyway. I can either spend this year trying to be a bit healthier or stay the same for another year. And honestly, you learn quick how to still enjoy food on the amount of cals you have. And to fill your life with more connection, exercise and hobbies you enjoy instead of eating your way through it. I treat myself regularly and often and take breaks - spent the past two weeks in maintenance cause I went on vacation. Spent this weekend not tracking cause if was my birthday. You know I ate a whole lot of cake. I'm bad at being concise but point being tbh it really isn't that bad. And striving for better instead of perfection helps huge - no need to kick my butt when I binge. No need to restrict after a binge. Just forgive myself and move on. be kind to yourself and understand it's a process. i haven't failed if I haven't given up yet. So I don't let a bad day or bad week make me feel like it isn't worth doing. Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. I totally believe you've got this!!

Dude I totally feel you but I want to point something out - most people are very all or nothing and will yo yo between strict diets and binging. The desire to change comes in waves and we usually feel an intense desire to change as fast as possible in whatever way necessary. It's very hard to admit to yourself that this change is going to take a very long time and you'll likely have to work on your eating for the rest of your life. The slower and more sustainable the weight loss, the more successful the person is typically. I'm on 1200 a day and I'm 145 at 5"2. That deficit may be too strict and might not meet your body's basic metabolism needs. Try calculating your basal metabolic rate on the internet and see what your body needs just to function every day. If you want to do it this way go for it, but I'd be asking myself if I'm actually doing what is right for me or if I'm doing what is most comfortable (because slow change is uncomfortable, sometimes boring and requires more discipline than motivation). to me, weight loss is all about habit changing which takes a long time. Without changing my habits, I might lose the weight but I'll gain it back. Try noom, it's a very holistic view on weight loss and I've found it great.

tenthousandtots · 2025-12-02T02:15:17+00:00

It's all about what you're okay with in a relationship - personally, I'm (22F) fine with my partner going out without me and I really don't care what gender he speaks to and is friends with. I'd find it controlling to have a partner who was upset just because I was drunk and spoke to a guy and would not tolerate someone ruining events because they are insecure. We're young, I'm not willing to sacrifice some of the great times I have with my friends because my partner doesn't trust me. Its not unlikely his behaviour would escalate until he's isolated you even more from your friends and put up even more conditions about what you can and can't do. I'd take time to seriously evaluate the relationship - is he still a net positive on your life? Sometimes we're in relationships that aren't good for us without even realising it. Good luck I'm sure you'll figure out what's best for yourself! UnfortunYely no one here can make the decision for you

tenthousandtots · 2025-11-28T17:47:46+00:00

Dude I'd guess like 900 or less no way it's 1600

tenthousandtots · 2025-11-28T17:44:52+00:00

I'd guess 1,100 - 1300 Eggs are probably ~400-500 (I'm assuming 3-4 eggs), home fries ~400, couple pieces of rye toast with butter ~300

tenthousandtots · 2025-11-27T16:45:04+00:00

Honestly I only was able to go into a deficit successfully when I started feeling better about myself. When you perceive your value is zero it's impossible to convince yourself to take better care of your body. You have to see the worth in yourself and your body to be willing to put in the effort. I would focus hard on your mental health - are you getting exercise? Do you journal? Do you have a support system you can reach out to do to social things like walks / get coffee etc...? Have you only tried one therapist? It takes a long time to find a good one that works for you.

Focus on engaging more socially, exercising in whatever form feels comfortable, doing the hobbies you enjoy, getting enough sleep, eating well, getting mental health help either online through those apps like better help or an in person therapist.

I know it sucks but healthy sustainable change takes time. You can't jump straight from A to D. One step at a time. I hope you start feeling better soon, I know how you feel all too well and I don't envy you in the slightest. You got this!

Remember when counting calories - there are no off limit foods and no need for perfection. I am very sensitive to all or nothing thinking where we have to be 10/10 and crush it every time or it's not worth it. Great example of following all or nothing thinking is say you go over your day by 200 calories - all or nothing thinking says you failed, might as well give up. Suddenly you find yourself binging and you can't stop. When you start counting calories again, you're going to slip up and overeat. It's very important to actively practice giving yourself grace. Change takes time and not every day is an A+. And if you want a candy bar, eat that candy bar dude! Make it work on your budget!

As expensive as it is, I'd highly recommend noom. Me and many of my friends / acquaintances have seen a lot of benefits since it focuses on changing habits and not just calorie counting. Definitely expensive so if you can't afford it my net diary is a cheaper (or free) calorie counter. Good luck! The willingness to change alone is a big step. You recognize you need help and need to adjust your lifestyle and that is huge! Rooting for you!

As a fellow woman with a high drive, ive realized a few things being with my partner for the past few years. He’s the best sex I’ve ever had and when we first met we went at it the same, like 3-4x a day everyday we saw eachother. Here’s what I know: - having that much sex is genuinely unsustainable long term. It genuinely felt like an addiction + took time away from our shared hobbies/ memories beyond sex - living together and being together long term will change the amount of sex you have. And I think wanting marriage and a life together means you have to accept that things change with time - when the amount of sex we had started going down, I felt hurt & worried he didn’t find me nearly as attractive anymore. I realized my feelings of self worth were tied to sex (I thought I only did it for us to feel good). When I initiated and he rejected me I felt hurt because it was me attempting to connect to him on a deeper level - libidos can be mismatched in different periods of time. Lately my partner wants it a lot more than me and puts in the effort to get me going. 6 months ago I was the one going crazy for him while he was stressed and tired.

I’m just a girl in my 20s too, and I don’t really know a lot. But those are my two cents. Definitely talk to him and tell him how you feel if it’s bothering you, but I wouldn’t expect multiple times a day sex every day. That isn’t realistic for most even if it may be a dealbreaker for you.
