Keto chow is incredible

I sometimes drink slimfast for a meal replacement because I don't always like eating breakfast/lunches but I need something to keep my stomach quiet.
It's fast and simple and I can drink it on the way to work.

>something to keep my stomach quiet

are you in conflict with your body? it sounds like it is bother you and keeping you from climbing the corporate ladder.

>>20669
>corporate ladder
Lol. Don't care.
I like to keep my body in a state of limbo where it think it gets food only to deny it and gorge later on after work.

>it think it gets food only to deny it and gorge later on after work

that does sound like corporate ladder a bit but feel free to remain in denial about it…

i can tell your relation to your body is out of sync when you feel the need to fool your body. i guess you tried just not eating all day and only eating in the evening but your body rebelled against your management. in theory this should not be a problem, one meal a day. i guess you eat a lot of candy and drink coffee and potentially use medication that also stresses your body.

i just eat fruit all day and when i am eating something heavy, i eat it in the evening. that's almost one meal a day with the added benefit that i don't need coffee to help me poop.

girl, just two bananas (or how ever many) during the day could save your life from this industrial nightmare wrecking havoc on your body and keep you from turning into a muppet with age.

Non-oily sunscreens market themselves as non-comedogenic
For avoiding white cast, look for chemical sunscreens since they don't use whitish minerals to absorb and deflect UV rays, but if they irritate your skin too much, then avoid products with oxybenzone in the ingredients
Picrel seems good
If you have to use a mineral sunscreen, then avoid products with titanium dioxide since that's worse for white cast, and apply sparingly

my rec is don't use it. only stay few minutes in the sun when it is hottest and learn your safe window.

where i live, when i avoid the sun from 2 hours before 12:00 noon and 2 hours after 12:00 noon, i'm fine. where you live most likely you can find a similar window.

with disappointment i see that again crystal cafe is a breeding ground for victims of consumerism. i wonder which brand of sunscreen the wild animals buy from the wild animal convenience store🙄

Living on the equator my only safe zone to go outside without sunscreen is when there is no sun or very slight sunrise/sunset (MAYBE up to 6:00 am and starting 6:00 pm if i'm not anal about being exposed to residual sunlight but even 5:30 pm sun is still too bright)
Putting on sunscreen is always a hassle though so I just walk out with a cap when the sun is already halfway past going down/is still weak going up. I'll only apply it if I really have to go out in the middle of the day

Everything about phones and the apps on it is designed to be addictive so it isn't a shocker that you are.

is just a stupid, wasteful approach. human life is short. transcend the desire to flee this place, this mindlessness that addiction needs to survive. fight it. if you shelter yourself from it, you will spend your life fleeing from it when you can just learn to ignore it. it is not hard but it takes time that the addiction convinces you you don't have. all these dumb young people saying "doesn't matter what i do, i'm not gonna be old anyways" and then they turn old and their whole basis for existence turned out to be invalid.

the first part of the fight is the hardest, that's when the addicted is still the weakest. but with every little success, the decision muscle grows and the fight becomes easier and at some point it is guarenteed victory over addiction every single time, reidentification with free will, transcendence of the desire to flee into illusion.

>human life is short.
Yet you are here, on an obscure image board you would only know if you're pretty addicted to screens yourself. Don't act like you're above it lol.

this place isn't even real. it is carefully curated.

>>20606
truth this place is just pixels on a screen, made up of triads, made up of atoms, made up of mostly nothing, nothing exists. yet everything exists, curated by god himself. god created cc.

if you have an android phone you should have a digital and wellbeing tab in your settings where you can put time limits on apps and control when you can access them. you can easily turn them off so I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for though

vindicta is shit girl get off there now

>>20474
i’m not on it much i mean sites that follow that theme

>>20495
What theme are you referencing?

Why would you want something similar to r/vindicta though? It's extremely retarded, their advice is basically to kill every shred of individuality you have and get plastic surgery for any flaw nobody except for them would even notice in order to fit male fantasies (and their idea of what men want is very narrow and only really applies to wealthy men from New England with country club passes)

i followed his advice a few years ago but there is too much contrary evidence to me. i wish i had a strong background in physiology to do more of a deep dive but from the research i can do too much of it just doesn't hold up.

increased vaginal discharge, higher libido, better masturbation. i stopped taking it because when ever i took it i got purple dots on my skin (petechiae?)…it was supposed to be bio-identical progesterone.

i love his principles mainly because i get to eat whatever i want lmao

Ever tried cod-liver? It isn't for gourmets either but I imagine it tasting better than regular canned liver

>>20435
not really anything. you have to stay away from pufas which is in pretty much anything processed. i love cooking with coconut oil though and eating haagen dazs every day is a bonus haha.

>>20464
yeah i know, but tbh i don’t take the pufa avoidance super seriously, esp because i really don’t think it can be avoided completely. i’m more mindful of just eating more saturated fats + avoiding things that cause inflammation in the body, like most cooking oils, preservatives, additives, etc.

>do you have an eating disorder
no

>which one
im anorexic (like, "real" "actual" uw anorexic) but i started above bmi 35. i developed it after i lost 20 lbs on accident after converting to ethical veganism (which i later betrayed because vegan safe foods are super limiting, and i feel terrible for giving up my morals to be able to eat fat free yogurt)

>are you attempting recovery
i absolutely refuse to access recovery treatment because it is biased towards people with a healthy or low-overweight starting weight who can maintain a healthy weight without ED behaviors and i dont think i have it that bad in the ED behaviors department anyway. i wholeheartedly believe i am built with genetics where normal people food freedom cannot exist for me without making peace with an obese body and dying in middle age. both sides of my family are universally obese, even the healthy eaters. absolutely insatiable even on a diet of black beans and rice

>how long have you had it?
vegan started 5 years ago at 17. i track any other milestones really. uw happened by accident during a stint of not weighing or tracking. i didnt starve the whole time and i think it was subclinical for most of the time tho

>what caused it?

weak willed consumer cultre victim…

forget everything you know about eating and apply the youthful curiosity to it. reading your textwall made me think that this is something you never did.

you could find out what food will end up make you looking what way but honestly it is a moot point. that's just wasting your short little life.

humans are dumb and so are you. they eat stuff they should not be eating and just because they don't drop dead from it instantly, does not mean it is 'safe to eat'.

most products in the supermarket will make you fat and sick. find out what your human organism has evolved to best digest and eat that and stop eating the stupid industry food and you will reach your goal of being thin. it's normal to want to be thin. if you only ate what your body could handle, you could eat unlimited amount and never get fat.

is very unfortunate that you gave up the veganism and it is also very unfortunate that you only sit on chairs and couches instead of moving about all day every day. hard work is nice. when you are a slave and work in a diamond mine for some greed capitalist asshole, that sucks. but working hard on yourself, that's such a wonderful feeling, i hope you experience it soon.

best of luck you enormous elephant aka honey booboo's mother.

I’m literally underweight now work on your reading comprehension

>do you have an eating disorder?
yes
>which one?
anorexia but i binge and purge often
>are you attempting recovery?
no
>how long have you had it?
in some form or another since my early teens
>what caused it?
in the beginning it was just a stupid diet to try to fix my acne. later the main driver is wanting people to expect less of me because they can see i'm ill.
>how does it disrupt your daily life, if it does?
it goes in cycles. i almost recover every winter, but as soon as the weather starts heating up I relapse (this aligns with my uni schedule). when i'm restricting I get really bad brain fog like spacing out in the middle of a sentence like im Biden or someone. and it restricts my social life a bit because i'm super weird around food and 90% of social gatherings are about eating.

Most women are average

Sure, but I don't spend time thinking about gay things like that.

something i wanna do that i have not gotten around to is use this nice ikea velcro to connect fabric to stuff. it's super easy. it is velcro with a type of hotglue on the other side and i have used it to attach fabric to a window to make quick and easy curtains without sewing. just needs to be warmed gently somehow. (i have seen it used with a little burner thingy people use to make creme brulee with, probably a regular lighter could be used too for small pieces. i have also seen it used with a hot air gun, probably works with a blowdryer too because it doesn't have to be that hot, just hot enough for the glue to melt)

it comes with both sides of the velcro. melt one side, press it gently on the fabric, melt the other side, press it gently above the window on the window frame.

since it was hotglue, it was easy to remove from the window frame when the first positioning did not come out that good, remelt it and position it again. i'd assume it is also not impossible to remove it from the fabric again.

pretty nice stuff. i was bummed out when the fabric section in my local ikea was reduced to maybe 10 different fabrics i did not like but i did stumble upon this nice hot-glue velcro in the once vast fabric aisle.

reposition it from the fabric

I did a bleach bath for skin issues and it somehow resurfaced cutting scars I didn't even know I had fml. If I ever have a kid that cuts I am going to beat it.

Luckily I don't have that many so they aren't super noticeable but I cover them with jewelry (on my wrists)

applying glycolic acid a few times a day and then thick moisturizer/bio oil/cocoa butter. and keep them out of the sun cause it'll make them much worse

I don't think it's worth stressing yourself out. i have pretty bad ones on my legs but eventually it gets hot enough outside that i stop giving a fuck and just wear the shorts. There is a lot of societal pressure for people to just mind their own business so even if they notice things like that they aren't gonna go through the awkwardness of bringing it up with you. I've only ever had like 2 people mention it to me in a solidarity type way which is still pretty awkward but not rude or anything.

i have scars on my inner upper thighs, so not very noticable.
I make sure to exfoliate them more as part of my shower routine and used lemon and baking soda when they were pinker. A tattoo (whether temporary or not) is something i have been considering, probably like a robot/cyborg looking body tattoo.

My current favorite is Judydoll's Lip Mud!

I love the DHC lip cream. My lips are permafucked from isotret and lanolin is the only thing that helps.
