HELP PLEASE I feel like I’ve been trapped in this endless cycle for so long. I’m 19, 163–165 cm tall, 55 kilos—and for over a year I’ve been eating less than 1000 calories, doing long fasts, exercising non-stop. For a while I even went to the gym for eight months, until my body completely shut down. I hit starvation mode, felt every possible symptom of stress, and honestly… I was just empty, like a shell of myself.

Not long ago, I was in a place where I ate a bit more “normally,” but not knowing exactly how many calories I was having made me spiral. The stress came back worse than ever. And now? Now I’m stuck fighting binge eating. I don’t feel full, I just know I could keep eating and eating without stopping. It’s exhausting.

I don’t know if I should keep trying to recover, or if I’ll just keep cutting calories until I completely lose myself—until I can’t enjoy anything anymore. And that thought terrifies me. I just want to feel normal again, to not be at war with food or with my own body. But right now… it feels so damn hard.

Get back on your diet you big fat liar. You were not eating only 1000 calories a day or you wouldn't be so big. Fatso.

That's like 20 BMI assuming 165 cm. I think you're doing more harm to yourself stressing over this.

If you actually ate 1000 calories a day your weight would be way different. Starvation mode isn't real btw

my butt crack….is so dark Anonymous 22044[Reply]

My butt crack is dark and it haunts me. I don’t even want to have sex, I’m just tired of walking around knowing my butt crack skin is dark. It’s like an evil secret I want nothing to do with. I am otherwise very fair. Does anyone know how to treat this? Creams and topicals seem like a load of garbage and do almost nothing. I exfoliate my skin but that’s not going to help with pigmentation. I would assume some form of laser would work, but what kind (pico, maybe?) and what kinds of clinics would offer it for this area of the body?

Do you have other darker skin folds on your body? Like your neck or armpits? You may have a condition like diabetes or POS and need medical help. I hope that's not the case.

Partial agree here, if OP has a pale complexion, the thicker skin looks much starker than it actually is. Still, since body image is all perception and mindset, get it bleached if that'll help you not think about it anymore, nona

Anonymous 22093

aren't certain parts of your skin (like your armpits and crotch) supposed to be a bit darker than the rest of your body?

I only shave my underarms and do it because it's easier to use deodorant + get clean after sweaty exercise when there's not hair in the way. I do it probably every other time I shower

Overall I find shaving legs to be a meditative thing to do once in a while, but I wear long pants so I have no reason to do it regularly

Overall I think shaving is a waste of time unless you have a specific functional reason for it. Beauty standards and whatever but who gaf. I'm a human being, not a barbie doll to ogle

For those who have gotten electrolysis how does it feel, specifically how much does it hurt? I want to get it since I hate body hair but I'm nervous, especially about the bikini area

Anonymous 22092

>>22091
Depends a lot on the skill of the technician, I think, as well as the part of the body. That said, it barely hurts more than just plucking the hair out normally. Usually they use a topical anesthetic of some sort so it can also basically feel like nothing at times.

It's important to remember that it takes a while to get results. A lot of people seem to expect it to be some kind of instant miracle.

Think about adding things that draw attention away from how fat or round your face is. You want people saying "omg wtf is on Nona's face?" And have some mixed likes and dislikes. Not "did you see how extra fat and round her face is today?"

Why are women expected to wear makeup, fake eyelashes, fake lip fillers, fake nails, nail polish, uncomfortably awful high heels while men can just wear casual and nobody cares?

The first mistake is believing that nobody else cares or judges the men while you do perform said judgment.

The second is accepting the idea that the man in your image is wearing casual, has no makeup or lotion on his face hair and lips, and is showing his natural stubble. Even though his neck is entirely smooth, and his stubble is entirely dark without any stray grays despite being in his late 30s. Beards show gray hairs before anywhere else on anyone else. That is a made-up, coiffed, and artificially colored male body dressed in personally tailored and therefore extremely expensive clothing, in a look that is engineered to present itself as approachable, everyday, and attainable. Mark Zuckerberg's fitted gray t-shirts cost thousands of dollars apiece.

The question should instead be "WHY is the intent of all of the effort of exorbitantly expensive male fashion so heavily engineered to produce a 'he looks like a guy my dad would have a beer with at a barbecue' result with ZERO VARIATION, where is the Professor with Tweed Jacket And Pipe look, where is the Distinguished Veteran Who Owns A Perfectly Maintained Gold Pocketwatch look, where is the coalminer who puts a flower in his pocket to keep his sense of life alive when he's out of the dark look," why can't these middle aged men accept social segmentation and stop trying to look like Ordinary Guys(tm).

Try brushing extra if you're worried about cavities. I don't know if this is my delusion but I think cavities can "self heal" a super tiny amount with flouride if you're digilent. Obviously not as a replacement for the dentist.

Also avoid vomitting, and remember not to spit too much toothpaste out after brushing and never rinse after brushing. The TP needs to linger on your teeth.

Anonymous 20942

Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. The longer the curls are the harder the it is for the tips to stay healthy. This is why traditionally most cultures with curly hair have protective braiding styles, but we live in the age of fancy shampoo and abundance so we can take advantage of that!
I've noticed most shampoos are too stripping for me so my current shampoo is actually a cleansing conditioner by Aunt Jackie's. To me that made the biggest difference and a massive one at that. Now I don't really notice much of a difference between using a regular conditioner or a heavy duty one so I think the worst thing I was doing to my curls was stripping the hair of too many oils with my shampoo so the conditioner had to work double time against the damage and barely contained it. Once a week I'll use a conditioning mask in the shower but mostly just use normal conditioner that I leave in while I wash my body. When I get out of the shower I gently towel dry and use some sort of sealing cream. I don't like the idea of product buildup (especially now that I'm using a cleansing conditioner instead of regular shampoo) so the stuff I'm currently using is basically just emulsified oils as I'm trying to avoid silicone or anything else that would build up over time. Then I let air dry and my curls are actually really happy and bouncy!
If I skip or forget to put in a sealing cream while my hair is wet my hair will be a bit frizzy but not bad so I really must stress finding a non stripping shampoo or cheating by using a cleansing conditioner personally. I originally bought after shower hair creams first and found myself using a lot but when I swapped shampoos I barely needed any and found my hair looked better too. On top of that, get a good wide tooth comb and comb daily to move the oils from the top of your scalp down to the tips. I used to avoid brushing but that was when I had a shit brush, now I notice my hair and scalp are so much healthier now that I'm combing through it. Good luck with the hair journey! My go to brand is Aunt Jackie's cause it's cheaper than the other stuff I've tried and it works miles better than this 70$ Kevin Murphy cleansing shampoo/conditioner combo I wasted money on one year. I don't have Afro hair, but the products still work amazing. I just don't go for the sealing cream for the super tight curly hair and it doesn't overdo it so long as I don't use too much

Scrunch some hair mousse into your hair right after u wash it
