it mostly comes from a good place those comments, mostly. people project on you how they think you could be happier, and more often than not, try to conform to societal expectations at the same time, because they never dared trying to be themselves either.

You must have never met my relatives

Being dissatisfied and unhappy is their purpose in life. But yeah, you said "mostly" so I guess there are some genuine ppl still out there. Hopefully =^.^=

Heh thank you. I really like white clothing but at the same time art prints on white are terrible. You want to wash it with washing powder for white things so it won't become light grey slowly but then the print suffers. No way to win. I'm happy my grumpy fennec shirt from the EF dealer's den is mostly resilient to fading. I wanted a black, but size M was gone. The artist/seller told me that the prints on the white are better quality anyway and he wasn't lying

i had whey shakes in the morning, that worked pretty well to have enough proteins and have a full belly on low calories. there are tons of flavors, the best i found was this one: https://www.amazon.de/BetterProtein-Whey-Protein-1-kg/dp/B0854PZP3C

die schwarze farbe ist aber relativ schnell blass geworden, weiß auf schwarz ist vielleicht besser? oder sorgfältiger waschen

it mostly comes from a good place those comments, mostly. people project on you how they think you could be happier, and more often than not, try to conform to societal expectations at the same time, because they never dared trying to be themselves either. the best it to toss it all into the bin, if you have the drive to take control, no external opinion matters. find people who will cheer on you when you need it. and yell on you when you need it too ^^

the shirt comes from here, but the black faded pretty quickly: https://www.etsy.com/de-en/listing/1840254952/cute-boykisser-shirt-femboyzone

I wished ppl would stop randomly commenting on others' physical appearances, unless specifically asked for. If someone's getting fat, I am sure they know about it and either want it or are trying their best. The other way round I hate as well, my greater family "oh my, you need to eat something, you are rib and bones!" "you know, that hair looks like a girl". Yeah thanks, none of your fucking business.

Also, where is that shirt from?

- make your food intake special, take care of making it extra tasty, small portions that bring you joy, but that's all you get.
OR
- make your food bland and turn the ritual of eating into a pure fulfilling of your physiological needs, almost always the same ingredients, a mealplan engineered to make you function properly.

i think both could be sustainable for me. what really helped is to start disgust myself with the taste of sweetness after 3 weeks. i genuinely felt guilty of having something sweet in my mouth, it gave me the feeling of doing something wrong, a big setback on my goals.

don't hesitate to experiment, it's a complex matter and each of us reacts differently to being deprived of food.

in any case, it's absolutely never too late. you failed? so be it, today is the day where you can try again.

I’ve been slipping quite a few times on my nutrition this and last year, and I believe I will have to find something other than food for psychological coping. I’m firm I’ll get there though

aw yeah having to take time off to recover is very much needed, but it's the right move. if you don't have fieber and respiratory issues, you can still do a little bit of exercise at home, just go slowly and stop if you feel dizzy or out of breath.

super proud of your results, those numbers are starting to look really good!

speedy recovery to you!

But my bodyfat % is going down (currently at 23.9% and muscle mass is at 39.9%!)
