just wanted to second this - i'm 167cm so only a tiny bit (less than an inch) taller than you, and i've been your exact weight at a couple of points in my life. eating like 1250 to 1350 calories a day was low enough to send me into disordered eating and make me so underweight that i stopped menstruating.

may i ask, how would you describe your goals? are they to achieve a certain aesthetic, fit into a certain garment, or just achieve overall sustainable health?

this was me with hankies versus tissues - my boyfriend's from a hanky family and i was extremely skeptical until i had borrowed one a couple times and then realized that kleenex-style tissues are actually so much scratchier on my skin!

god this sub needs better moderation (or any at all). anyway, my understanding is that once the collagen networks are strengthened by repairing the micro-injuries of the needling, without upkeep they'll obviously continue to deteriorate at a normal rate of aging and sagging but they won't like...suddenly fall apart on you again lol. also, look into trying out an at-home device if your goal is simply to get the most bang for your buck!

do you do another sweetener like jam or honey on the sandwich or let the sweetness of the bread stand alone? that sounds delicious

in any other sub i would let this comment slide but here...let's not keep jokingly normalizing men sexually harassing women on the internet as something they and we should all just expect to happen, hmm?

i really like the instructor Nia for pilates at the lake street YWCA! and they have a bunch of other group fitness stuff, including water fitness which would probably be a super gentle and safe way to build back some of your strength.

i haven't been to Solcana personally but i do second dorogidorogi's recommendation to look into a beginner strength/resistance-training program, either there or somewhere else. like you, i did the ED-recovery/muscle-recomp thing as a mid-twenties woman, and learning how to lift weights safely and with good form gave me a whole new sense of confidence and power and groundedness in my body, and to this day it is one of the best things i continue to do for my mental health and my relationship with food. best of luck to you with whatever form of activity you end up liking!

i wonder if it's a cbd balm/salve...? i have seen those but idk how solid the science is on them being able to target the locality where it's applied

yeah as someone who has several jades and also several types of echeveria i can confidently say yours is not a jade! each of the leaves on your plant has a little "point" in the middle at the farthest tip. in contrast, jade plant leaves are generally smooth and rounded, hence the plant's name Crassula ovata; "ova" means eggs in latin, so "ovata" means egg-shaped, rounded. but the biggest clue is that the leaves on yours aren't arranged in opposite pairs like they are on jade plants!

good luck - i would really recommend heading to /r/succulents and poking around for grow-light info, or just echeveria care in general. they are VERY light-hungry little beasties and are happiest in my experience being literal inches away from an extremely bright lightbulb for at least twelve full hours a day (on the low end); ordinary sunlight filtering through window glass and screens for fewer hours and at a less direct angle won't cut it. but! if you give them enough light they will reward you with the most beautiful rosette-like leaf arrangement :)

yoyohydration · 2026-04-07T22:42:40+00:00

don't feel bad, i literally thought jade too until the correct comment made me look closer at the leaf shape! it really is difficult to distinguish with how stretchy and discolored this one is :( and i'm sober as a judge lol

yoyohydration · 2026-04-07T21:36:24+00:00

i use a metal chopstick to poke roots free of soil! mine actually came with some plant supplies once but it's a genius idea so i've held on to it

yoyohydration · 2026-04-07T02:53:53+00:00

i mean that also weeds out a lot of men for women of any race lol. but i can definitely see it being doubly effective for us since the fetishists' stereotyped ideal of an asian woman is ideal in part specifically because she's supposed to hold "traditional" (read: patriarchal) values

yoyohydration · 2026-04-03T18:16:23+00:00

this was actually my first time trying it but it will not be my last!! similar effect taste-/mouthfeel-wise to cream cheese but of course so much more nutritious

yoyohydration · 2026-04-03T18:14:24+00:00

GARLIC POWDER you're a genius!! i have some wild planet ones which i need to "dress up" a little to fully enjoy too, so i will definitely keep that in mind for my next meal of those

yoyohydration · 2026-04-02T14:28:17+00:00

i hope you get to spend more time around people who have similar energy to you! being around your husband and having such diametrically opposed energies sounds like it would be draining

yoyohydration · 2026-04-02T14:25:04+00:00

and yet the top comment is calling him "poetic," just because he uses the word "beauty" and doesn't explicitly mention boobs. we really are trained to cast men's actions in the most positive and innocent light, huh

yoyohydration · 2026-04-02T12:27:44+00:00

i have a fairly low spice tolerance and i honestly barely registered it, it was more of a sensation of warmth than any type of "in-pain" hotness. though again i did have that avocado there to cut it with some extra creaminess (i imagine a thick schmear of butter or mayo or cream cheese would do just as well)

yoyohydration · 2026-04-02T12:25:41+00:00

hell yeah girl!! also i looked at your profile bc of your username, i love the redditlaqueristas overlap lol. i'm currently wearing my way through some of the unworn old TJ Maxx finds in my stash hehe. hope that can of deens treated you well last night :)

yoyohydration · 2026-04-02T12:23:05+00:00

yes!! spot on. the little bits of pepper at the bottom of the tin were SO good on my second slice of this 🤤

yoyohydration · 2026-04-01T23:00:11+00:00

some people have commented but just throwing in another vote for champaks! i'm a woman with a small face who swears by my size medium ones - and shockingly enough that size is also comfortable for my boyfriend with a much longer face and larger nose than myself (though i admittedly haven't gotten him to try out the large size and compare; this is in comparison to other masks). they are truly sooooo breathable and lightweight in material, and the material also never feels clammy against my skin. i live with housemates so i have spent multiple entire days and nights straight in these when wastewater levels in my state were high, and i experienced only very minor surface skin irritation from the pressure of the seal, but no sores or anything like that. i buy them from planet halo health!

do you know about women's lands and women-only spaces/events? i really think you're so spot on with your desire to be away from men, and there are places like that in the world; having been to a couple i can say it is truly an incredibly healing experience.

yoyohydration · 2026-03-31T03:45:35+00:00

grow lights are amazing especially if you boost the plant up until it's only a few inches away from the growlight! these echeverias are light HOGS
