  • It's my birthday tomorrow so the days of this and next week is an I don't care day! But funnily enough, I'mve been under the past few days since I'm eiyher busy planning, w friends, or at work (writing)
  • Your bp may be low. I was having dizzy and fainting spells for a long time, and my bp always stayed at 60/80, even going as low as 50/70 one time after an all-nighter. I'm also deficient in iron/vitamin B, so I take supplements to help it. This, along with drinking water and upping your sodium intake, has helped. :)
  • In my country, we have San Miguel Zero. 60 calories a bottle!
  • By my definition, binging is eating with little to no consciousness, if that makes sense. I've had episodes of this while recovering from anorexia, and believe me, stuffing my face with random things around the house as a way to emotionally cope or make up for my restriction was not fun. I've had episodes where all I ate…
  • You can add me! :)
  • Happy birthday! :) Seems like an awesome day. I remember I celebrated a fiesta last May, dove right in with a lot of fruit salad and Filipino delicacies. Oh, and beer! Hahaha. Have a great one. ;)
  • Thank you so much! :) :)
  • Thank you for this :) :)
  • Thank you! Am just a bit afraid of counting since it sets me off into another depressive cycle, if that makes sense.
  • Exactly why I am wondering if it's possible to cut/maintain/bulk without counting or measuring. :)
  • Looking great, keep it up!
  • I don't like overly arrogant people. I once overheard someone say "Your workout is just my warm up!" to someone, a stranger/acquaintance to them, and that just pissed me off. We were all beginners once (I believe I still am!), and we each have our own routine. Why belittle someone for what they do in the gym? If it's a…
  • I suffer from depression, and for me, it really helps! I'm more energized and peppy. Maybe it's the type of exercise you do?
  • I really don't like people who use excuses for being overweight. Unless you're really suffering from a condition that prevents you to lose or gain, then I won't understand. But if you're happy the way you are, then you do you, but just try to eat healthier for your life and not for the "bikini body". Some excuses I've…
  • Not really scary, but more convenient. I mean, if I got a small can of pork & beans or tuna, I wouldn't be splitting it into 2.3 servings! Doing the calculations to get the calories on the whole pack is easy, but it just gets irritating at times having to use a calculator when some servings are worth 2.420382 or whatever…
  • Do you mean in long term, or just as like a workout routine? If long term, I would say a mix of both, mostly focusing on cardio if you want to lose weight since you burn more calories that way, and to lift to retain some of the muscles you would possibly lose when losing weight If during a workout, I'd say that based on…
  • I'm suffering from depression as well and am prescribed Pristiq. I'm not sure how you can motivate yourself to get up and go (Because there will be some days where it gets extremely hard), but I just get up and put on my workout clothes. Once it's on and I'm out the door, I just believe there's no more stopping me since…
  • I yawn a lot too! Everytime I workout, I stop at times just to yawn and I was wondering why haha I just started working out a few months ago after a year of stopping.
  • Thank you very much! I'll try to look into my workout schedule, along with the sets/reps I do. I'm just worried about eating without counting calories, as I'm already eating "unfamiliar" food (unmeasured, usually from restaurants, or made by other people)
  • I've already discussed it with my psychiatrist, as I don't have a treatment team. Checked with my doctor and a nutritionist, as well as my parents, and I'm good to go with exercise so long as I'm eating more (and healthier, since I have bad eating habits and 70% of my calories come from fat from pork or ice…
  • I glug diet soda (LOVE Pepsi Max, Sprite Zero, diet A&W, Coke Zero, and Monster). Lost 70 lbs. So whoever says it's bad for weight loss is wrong. Health-wise, I know I should stop.
  • Walking/running outside with music is VERY enjoyable and not at all boring since I see different things and love the music. Treadmill... It sucks staying in one place and running as if I were on an experiment. Unfortunately, I moved to a condo where the jogging path sucks (very short so no variety), so what I do is to do…
  • Ice freakin cream. There's a twirl it yourself ice cream cone thing in my nearest convenience store, and since it's only 25 PHP (50 cents!), I just can't help myself sometimes and twirl a HUGE ice cream cone :(
  • Me because I'm the one forcing people to eat ice cream huehue I can say it's my parents, but more in a funny than evil and purposeful way?

  • I've been to the gym when I was both overweight and underweight, and no matter what I do, I always feel less confident as if I don't know what I'm doing. I feel like people judge me for what I look or what I'm doing, honestly. The other day, I overheard a conversation between two people who casually said "So I was thinking…
  • We must be twins, bc I was at the same boat as you! 102 and 5'4 here, but gained to 107 since April. Eat more and start lifting. I started lifting using dumbbells and machines (Our gym doesn't have barbells, but I do try to go with my uncle to his gym to train with him once a week with it). I gained a bit of fat and…
  • A kitty smushed flat :( Just when I composed myself, I saw ANOTHER one at the same state. I have no idea if it was an accident, or some sick person around my village does this for fun... :( I wasn't running, but I was walking one time and I was one of those "strangest things seen while running" as I was wearing a pink…
