/hb/ - Health & Beauty

Even though I lowered my calorie limit by a lot I've still managed be under most days. I've been focusing more on nutrition lately and I don't get bloated at night like I used to. Feeling good!

try intermittent fasting baby. rough at first but it makes eating less waaaaaaaayyyy easier IMO.

I've been able to keep to my diet even with the 1500 calorie tdee. But my period is getting weird as I lose weight so I might start eating more and focus on building muscle. It's hard to change diet thought patterns, though.

I've been eating fish almost every day and it makes getting protein in so easy. I slso stopped esting oil-heavy dinners which has reduced my calorie intake immensely.

I tried to eat at maintenance and ended up with a monthly deficit of 4700 calories. I think that's pretty good.

yes just grow your real nails out

I don't shave anymore, free yourself nona

i only shave whenever my bf comes over (im a hikikomori)

>>21961
>Where/How often do you shave
The only part of my body that I shave is my upper lip (I have black hair so it's a bit noticeable) every once in a while when I feel like it. The only other body hair I have is pubes and lower legs/arms.
>How do you feel about body hair
Honestly I don't think body hair is such a big deal. That said, I absolutely hate it when people shave coarse hair (anything thicker than fuzz) intermittently in a way that makes their skin feel like a cactus. I think people should commit to one or the other.
>Products/techniques you recommend
I use a foil razor so it literally takes 5 seconds to shave. I've also tested it on other body hair and it does a great job, although I've heard they can be shit if you get a cheap one or if it doesn't work well with your hair; I recommend giving it a shot if you've never tried it.

Does anyone have any advice for shaving the back of their legs? It always hurts that I have to twist myself for it, especially the back of my thighs and my leg hair is very thick which doesn't help

i just wanna know what it feels like.
id probably get tired of it after a while for sure though.

I want big breasts so people stop mistaking me for a boy.

People are going to ogle and judge no matter what you do. The only important thing is your health.

I agree with most of this and this is a good training regimen for what you're targeting. I have to disagree on the yoga thing though. If part of your problem is chronic armoring and general tightness yoga can be helpful. I know you can just do indivual stretches for recovery, but doing them in a sequence that flows is more efficient time wise and just works better in my experience. I found using a logical progression/flow improves the effectiveness of the stretches themselves, and being able to enter a meditative state using the movements is extremely beneficial for your mental and physical health.

I just think taking a more holistic approach is better than being so super against yoga as a whole just because it's full of hacks and grifters just like every single other thing on this planet that is even remotely popular. If you can get past the heavily promoted bullshit there are genuinely excellent practices and teachers out there.

I do agree that telling people to do just yoga for back pain is not nearly enough and it should be done in combination with a strength training regimen.

I have small tits and I get sweaty under them and get red lines under them sometimes and I hate it, I can not imagine what it must be like if they're bigger

Just wear what you like and stop following retarded trends

>>21936
All trends are dumb, this is why they are trends and not the normal.

>>21935
This is… not a man repellant outfit. Men like when women dress like this.

I think step one is to stop worrying about the perception of other people and just dress for yourself as >>21942 so succinctly put it, and >>21941 excellently practices.

Lately I've started trying to dress however I feel like instead of how I thought a mother should dress, and it's been a very interesting exercise. Not only to see the difference in people's reactions on a day to day, but analyzing my own internal thoughts and identifying where my humanity has been stifled. I think everyone should try it, even if you do have to end up wearing something else for your safety.

fippy bippy

That said I think OP has a point in that any "trend" or whatever is in OP image would ever be considered "man repellent" - it suggests that the only people riding these trends are still subconsciously seeking male attention (e.g. they are posting these images online). Importantly, they do not want to be ignored by men, but to simply appear socially unapproachable. Being ugly does not achieve that.

Personally, I think there's merit in the core concept of becoming unapproachable. Crushing male esteem to the point that they feel inadequate to even breathe the same air as you is a perfectly valid goal (and one I stand behind). Importantly, there's more to being "unapproachable" than makeup, hair, and clothes. There are a multitude of other aspects of how you present yourself (speech, posture, facial expressions, etc.) that matter for these types of things.

Absolutely agree with you. Being intimidating is truly freeing. You are very correct that clothes are actually the least important aspect of this. I found the most success through adjusting my posture and just speaking more clearly and confidently. Your post is also very well written and I really enjoyed reading it.

So you view women as birthing machines? Interesting…

??? dudes can create children

i feel it. my family has a huge history of both cancer and depression, both sides. i'm just not gonna keep it going.

>>21943
As a person whose entire life revolves around the fact that I have children (because I love it and chose this), I am glad that you were able to choose the future that is right for you. Good for you Nona. <3

Lmao talk about lack of inner awareness from that poster.

Eh, what makes him such an attractive character to many is simply because he's very undefined, making it easier for people to project whatever they want onto Leon. The same can be said with many other male characters in fiction.

tbh i find lingerie quite cute and aesthetic pleasing. would never wear it for a man tho, maybe for a cute girl who knows. but those red super difficult lacy bdsm ones for men no

I used to like wearing lingerie when I was a single khv. I would still wear it if I had the disposable income. Most men don't understand or appreciate expensive lingerie. It's definitely not forcthem.

>Autism is caused by various poisons in the food and environment as well as giving babies 30 vaccines by the time they are 2, God fucking damn

God you're retarded.

I can't believe this glowie moid shit crossed over from that fucking place. No one wants to admit they have shitty genetics and don't screen for defects and then leave it up to god to sort it out after going to every length to ruin their overall health and fertility. I bet most of these parents don't even breast feed or shook the kid cause it cried and are suprised it won't look at them anymore.

>>20919
>No one wants to admit they have shitty genetics
sometimes i wonder if they believe that technology will save them and 'clean up' their shitty genes and all they are doing is holding out until technology has caught up to the place that they can pretend they have always been very healthy and well-maintained. i had average genes and after many years of living healthy and mindfully i have improved my genes. i guess most people don't know this is possible.

>after going to every length to ruin their overall health and fertility.
i just realized i have never once in my entire life heard anyone discuss the topic of maintaining fertility. while still being downstream from health, it is a topic worth discussing. legend states fruitarian women have very light and easily endurable periods because their overall regeneration is so healthy that there is hardly any blood involved.

>I bet most of these parents don't even breast feed or shook the kid cause it cried and are suprised it won't look at them anymore.
heh 😂 you just described the average parents and the reason most people are so fucked up in a single sentence, i love it.

I think we as a society should euthenize all the children. This world is not a good place for children whatsoever and they are better off dead before they reach the age of accountability and risk going to Hell.
