  • I get what youre saying OP, and if you'd feel more comfortable with an alternative that is less likely to be taken the wrong way, you can say things that don't involve a subjective comment on their appearance, for example you can say something like "congratulations, i'm proud of you/happy for you, that must have been a lot…

  • I suffered from horrible severe acne for my entire teenage years. Nothing I did ever helped. I went on birth control in my early 20s and that cleared up my acne about 60%. then I switched from vegetarian to vegan and cutting out dairy has made my skin almost 100% acne free, and for me that is such a huge deal.

  • im 5'2 and eat 1,200 on rest days. I dont have a lot to lose though, only about 10lb. if you have more to lose your daily calorie needs are probably a bit higher.

  • Mine are a bit silly, but I have a collection of animal stickers that I put in my fitbook at the end of each day that I reach my nutrition and exercise goals. I love animals so this makes me happy and gives me motivation. My longer term rewards are getting new piercings, or buying products from my favorite skin care line.

  • Been there! I'm trying to get toned and build some muscle definition. I feel so much better about myself than I did when my goal was to be as stick thin as humanly possible.

  • I sort of did? but more like what the first person said. I've struggled with an eating disorder for years. At my very worst I was eating only a couple hundred calories a day. But even after that, when I thought I was "cured" of my ED and would never torture myself like that again, I still set my calorie goals to only…

  • I do it (loosely) only because it gives me less time to snack. Especially since I've been working from home the past month, its very easy for me to go back and forth to the kitchen. I used to do 16:9 very strictly, but now I dont take it so seriously. If I forget to eat my last 100 calories until 10 or 11pm I'm going to…
