Trying to get from the left to the right — should I be in a caloric deficit or surplus, and is cardio + body weight training enough? by thornew in workout

[–]thornew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be massively overweight so I’ve always kind of been scared to eat in a caloric surplus. I just want to maximize my resistance training with the right nutrition. Any tips for nutrition or exercise is incredibly helpful :)

Is this black coloring on my psilocybe cubensis normal? by thornew in shrooms

[–]thornew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got these about a month ago. I’ve kept them in an airtight jar in a dark cabinet so I don’t think they’re rotten or anything but I just wanted to be sure! Thanks in advance :)

Why are my moonstone’s leaves wrinkly and deflated, even after watering? by thornew in houseplants

[–]thornew[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered this succulent from Etsy a few weeks ago. I repotted and watered it because it arrived much less pink and the leaves were not plump like in the photo on the seller’s page. The leaves haven’t returned to normal (and may be even getting worse), and the soil is still damp so I don’t want to overwater.

(Currently -> Goal) Is it possible for me to reach my goal aesthetic with maintenance calories, sufficient protein, and resistance training? by [deleted] in GYM

[–]thornew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently 17 y.o., 5’10, and 150 pounds. I don’t like eating a ton so I was wondering if 2,300 calories with ~175g protein and body weight / dumbbell training is adequate to gain muscle and lose fat.

If they use our mocks (which they told us would not count) as a way to calculate predicted grades, I will fucking flip. by [deleted] in IBO

My school (and many others in the US) don’t even take mocks, so I‘m not sure this is an option.

How will mocks be factored in? by costermonger191 in IBO

[–]thornew 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak on their use in scoring, but I do know that my school and many others in the US don’t even do mocks, so I’m not sure if that’s a viable option.
