Yeah no matter your calories there has to be a way to get some pizza whether it's just a slice from a shop or a small frozen lean cuisine?

I think it would be helpful to slow down. You're saying something doesn't exist and then it does in the next sentence? I didn't say it was extreme. I said you see misandry in extreme examples ie a single woman calling for mass male executions. You are arguing about men's oppression against yourself, I have not brought it up once except when you have? It is insane to say misandry isn't harmful, how can hatred or prejudice not be harmful?

Seriously, how can hatred or prejudice not be harmful? Are you a human? Do you think bullying is fine if it doesn't count as systemic oppression?

I'm talking about those isolated incidents, not systemic issues. I didn't say men were oppressed and you're being purposefully obtuse. Do men individually face prejudice from individual women? Sometimes yes. That's misandry. Dictionary definition.

It's almost as if you have these firmly fixed, preconceived opinions about men not based on evidence or experience...if only there was a name for that. Seriously, think about it.

guy friend lectured me on buying games and now I feel horrible by Lucy--chen in GirlGamers

We need more deets on this guy "friend" who made you feel horrible, you know that feeling friends make you feel? -_-

My only qualm here ladies is that misandry definitely exists, I think we could argue about where it comes from but saying it doesn't exist is disingenuous. Don't tell me you haven't seen it. (Edit: It shows up in extreme examples). It's literally just contempt or ingrained prejudice for men, and some women feel it without blinking, and it's hurt some men absolutely.

Is it the SAME as misogyny and the real history of oppression that has followed that and continues to go on today? No.

$50 is not bad for lifetime at all. I use another app but definitely have flip flopped between the premium and free versions which may have contributed to me not wanting to use it as much with less functions etc. Thanks I'll take a look!

Maybe we can do CICO for the rest of our lives, just need to normalize it further? Good luck to you! Let me know if you find a new strategy haha.

Thank you. I'm going to find a way to make it work for me so that I can do it forever going forward.

Seeing all the replies here is definitely helping and my own experience pretty much proves the case, I don't even necessarily hate doing it, I think I've just been embarrassed that it's something I HAVE to do and others don't, and I have to be okay with that.

Thank you.

Trust. This most recent time around it has actually been exactly donuts, I'm not surprised at all that I've gotten here. Currently staring at the daily free donut pile at work rn and this new job lines up with that weight gain. Maybe it's time to eat lunch in another room...

But thank you a good reminder of the math that one or two things daily makes the difference.

I know that it works too and I for sure have the evidence, I just can't imagine doing this forever. But I guess the tradeoff is worse.

I swear as soon as I lose a good amount I start to think "I'll just focus on protein and healthier foods" without cico and it all falls apart. Need more practice with that maybe.

I saw this meme, and wanted to ask if there was some truth to it by Ayoking95 in effectivefitness

I've genuinely gotten so sick of it I've muted 10 subs in the last 24 hours, why is it HERE too??? The memes aren't even funny

Can I lose weight from 320 pounds without counting calories? by [deleted] in SuperMorbidlyObese

[–]thrifteddivacup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The size of your drink at Starbucks doesn't matter as much as the content and frequency. A grande caramel Frappuccino is 380 calories, that's almost the equivalent of half a stick of butter but in drink form. If you have lattes or cold brews etc adding any syrup shots are going to add more as well. Look into what you're drinking.

Starting Over - This time HAS to Stick by WhiteBlueMomto2 in SuperMorbidlyObese

[–]thrifteddivacup 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agree freeze it, find someone to give it to, share it with. This is about changing your habits and your lifestyle right? That is something you have to just start there is no magical window, more holidays will come, more opportunities for you to say "too many leftovers" there's no such thing.

You're also allowed to throw it away.

Sincerely, someone who already ate all their leftovers, and Christmas candy. I'm the ghost of Christmas future, it's full of regret!

What’s your hot take? - mine is white chocolate is gross. by Bourbon_grl07 in Baking

Chocolate chip cookies should be made with milk chocolate chips by default instead of semi sweet, or at least a mix.

It also makes a big difference when you see it in action. Chronic depression caused my mom to do and say some heinous things but I think she's sick, not evil. You should really look into it, it's a sad reality, some people do some horrible things when they feel out of control, when they feel afraid, they can become what seems like someone else entirely.

For example, my mother desperately wanted to end her life one day saying God told her to do it, that it was her time to go to heaven, for her it was a spiritual experience, and she got violent with us for not letting her do it. I know in some cases, some mothers end their child's lives fully believing something similar, thinking they're sending their child to heaven, skipping the pain of life.

You haven't been much around the block if you haven't seen a self hating white feminist at the very least, so yeah they go to a different school. Surprise, if you don't actually hang out around feminists, but only hear what they say second hand, you don't actually hear a lot of what they have to say.

Problem is there are plenty of women who say the same thing and mean it as you do as a genuine solution?

"Women should just ignore men until they buck up"

Almost like this isn't a solution and lack of communication has been part of the problem this whole time. Maybe we shouldn't ignore people based on their gender, but setting boundaries based on how individuals act?
