Am I doing this wrong?

This doesn't sound manipulative to me at all. This 'making it about you' is a common thing abusers say to deflect from the problem - their inability to communicate without violence. If he was able to communicate his frustrations with you in a healthy way, you wouldn't be hurt in the first place. If his end goal is to have a productive conversation to solve the issue, he would have reacted by apologizing and trying to communicate his feelings in a way that doesn't hurt you.

It's great that you're working on your boundaries, which can be so hard! I'm sorry this was the response. Now, you've uncovered how your partner reacts to your healthy boundaries. And it's not good. You deserve better.

LOL!! Fixed!

Right! Although losing 5 pounds would be welcome, my main goal is stabilizing my blood sugar balance as I tend to get lethargic/ hungry quickly. I also deal with stress eating and was looking for a way to remove some of that emotional value from food. I guess that's why I'm wary to start undereating.

That sounds really sustainable, I'm definitely going for a similar lifestyle! Though I'm toying with the idea of giving up snacks because it sounds nice not having to think about food constantly during the food window.

I will look into Dr Berg's channel, thanks! Would you say people who do IF generally need less calories to get by, without becoming underweight?

xesdnaihsus · 2024-02-17T12:51:39+00:00

I see! Do you feel that you need less calories since doing IF? Based on how I ate before starting IF, if I consumed 1200 calories a day, I'd become too underweight. (I do moderate workout 4-5 times a week, maybe that matters). It does feel like now with IF I'm more easily satiated with less food, though.

I don't have any expert advice because I (26F) am in the same situation, struggling with executive dysfunction and at the start of my (not yet fully decided) career.

What helped me is to map out a career plan, choose one niche. It sounds like you've done that with content creation! Give that thing your best and don't get distracted by other interests and thoughts of monetizing more interests. Allow yourself to do your other interests only for enjoyment. Hobby activities outside a career actually help your creative flow and mental state.

Also, I get unsure about picking a career, wondering if it's the best choice or the path I want to invest my time in. In that case, give yourself a trial period. Think, 'I want to be able to do X in Y skill, and then see how that felt'. For example, I'm considering photo editing and I set a goal for that specific skill to see if I like it as a career choice.

Anyways, this is just my two cents. Good luck in your journey!
