You deadlift? What's your PB?

My current max is 250 pounds! Gotta catch up to Tony, he's at 300 now 😤

Also someone else asked about how deadlifting doesn't kill my back, and the answer is that weightlifting with proper form is good for back pain >:]

Strengthening your stabilizer muscles is so good for your bones and posture! It doesn't mean accidents don't happen, as we will all decay in time, but it definitely helps me draw all day and night without crumbling into dust 👌

#liftposting on main #my routine is roughly 20 min of cardio then 30-40 min of freeweights #focusing on a different muscle group each time #this is how i have zero wrist problems #you can also do farmer's walks where you hold a weight in one hand and walk around #which is less potentially dangerous than deadlifting and so good for your forearms!!#anyway my whole perception of working out shifted as soon as i started seeing it as maintenance vs something designed around losing weight #i may not be able to control whether i get sick or have a major injury that stops my body from being able to do what i want it to do #but i can give myself slightly better chances of being able to climb stairs into my old age!#art tips

Fat rolls and cellulite because I eat food, scars because I have a history, stretch marks and acne because I have a hormonal condition, glasses because my eyes don’t work…. Just me doing my best, take it or leave it. ✨

Every time I see actors with perfectly chiseled abs and bulging muscles my first thought is that they're probably dehydrated and need to eat something and that does not enhance my viewing experience.

#no seriously #especially a lot of the bl actors #and sometimes they lose so much weight and i get more worried #i hope they're okay now #and especially okay longterm #but i worry that the expectations of their bodies is out of goddamn control

remember if you haven’t been accused of having an eating disorder you’re not thin enough

Mini BC:

So this isn't really a body check cuz I did one before that a few days ago but this is my stomach after I didn't eat all day(I ate some lunch tho after I did weight myself) because I was waiting for the scale to arrive and oh my god I know it's not much but knowing this is what I could look like all the time if I just keep going is honestly so motivating.

I also took a picture from the side but oh god I look fat AF from the side so I'll Spare you

Anyways plz don't be mean thx (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

they honestly couldve done so much with junpei beheaded/dismembered and im disappointed that it ended up just being mira. so much of his character and his relationship with akane is characterized by his lack of bodily autonomy, and him being openly beheaded during the nonary games would be the ultimate example of this. its perhaps the most brutal death in the game, and it never really gets explained or developed beyond the one puzzle that we get with it. junpei has been shown repeatedly to be subject to akane's plans or follow her blindly and i just think that would have been a really interesting angle to approach his beheading from. junpei has willingly signed up for nonary games in two different timelines just because he knew he would see her. he was infected with a deadly virus trying to find her. he grew desensitized to death as he took underground jobs to try and find her. his safety always comes second when shes in the picture, and his beheading wouldve been a prime opportunity to 1. exploit his willingness to let himself die/be injured for her and 2. make akane confront the fact that her confidence that junpei will always follow after her is not necessarily a positive thing.

#zero escape #additionally wasnt mira supposed to be asleep?? like i know she didnt get the forget juice but didnt she still get knocked out?#but also!! none of her other kills were like that! none of them were dismembered and she didnt touch junpeis chest #so even that reasoning doesnt make sense #kinda feels like a copout to keep the shock of junpei being disrespected in such a way - to have his very body turned into a puzzle #a puzzle that akane is forced to solve!!! without knowing that what shes looking for is his head - him!#theres so much potential there and they just didnt do anything #im not even saying that akane should have somehow been responsible for that death - only that not having her really grapple with it is such #a missed opportunity #i still fucking LOVE the imagery of it though. i really think its the epitome of the representations of his lack of autonomy #he loses all of vlr. quark. 45 years of his life. because akane decides this is best for him. he dies repeatedly trying to find her.#because she believes that she knows what will keep him safe #and turning junpeis body into a puzzle posthumously is a fantastic example of his lack of control over his body #its like hes literally become a doll. hes jumpydoll - not junpei. hes subject to these games even after he has died.#he gets no peace. no respect in his death. not when hes in these games. not when hes in the shadow of akanes whims and games.#i still love the imagery. i think it was one of my favorite parts of ztd and is honestly now a core tenet of my Junpei Understanding #but i was disappointed in the lack of narrative weight that specific death had. for him to be one of the first dead? for it to be in such a #brutal manner? like come ON. the character analysis for junpei and akane and their relationship is RIGHT THERE. all you had to do was put i #in the game #but nope.#they just handwave it as something mira did.#and dont bring up the details ever again because. plot point solved?#anyway. ive been thinking about junpei imagery and bodily autonomy a lot. obviously.#zero escape spoilers #mak no peeking #marydontlookatthis

So. I think I have been experiencing a mental block of sorts and I really need to get thru it.

I was very big. Very large @ 317.

I am not tall, so I was very wide.

I have been greatly successful. But as soon as people started "noticing" my weight loss, it pretty much stopped all together.

Why?

Self-sabotage mostly, I am no longer eating in a deficit.

But why??

That is harder to pinpoint.

I think it might be related to an extremely religious upbringing and people being attracted to me.

The adulation feels false. I am not skinny, I am on the hefty side of a "mid-range" girlie.

So it could be some imposter syndrome shit.

But it does seem to be entirely self sabotage and excuses.

I continue to have terrible cravings around my cycles and want to eat and order all the things. I have been unable to acquire the honeymoon phase, where you are solid in habits and moving forward with progression.

I really want that thoughtless, moving forward in power era where you are so focused on what you are doing that you don't *think* about it, you just *do* it.

My impulses are all over the place and awfully disjointed so Idk what direction to follow right now.

So I am trying to focus on healthy habits. & rebuilding the things that were bringing me success.

I have a hard time with habit building. I literally need to track every day the most random stuff to stay "on point." If I miss a day.... boom, it's gone for weeks.

So..... working on overcoming whatever mind bullshit I gotta get over.

I deserve to be at a healthy weight.

I deserve to feel attractive.

It's OK if people are attracted to me.

It doesn't make me a bad person.

I am still the same loving person.

It doesn't matter what people think of me.

My person and my body are none of anyone's business.

guys honestly. can we please normalise everything about every different body type? like all the possible physical aspects of a person that someone can have. i don’t think that we should have even alienated any things in the first place. it’s literally your body. you can only control what you look like to a certain level. and you should only want to change what you look like for you. not for anyone else. beauty standards are stupid and everyone should love every part of their body. i want people to just be able to exist in their body however they want to and not face bullying or rude comments or discrimination for it. if you can do that and ignore rude comments, that is so cool!! genuinely!! but lots of people can’t ignore rude comments or even just looks that say a lot, and it really destroys you when you’re made to think that your own body isn’t okay. you have to live in your body every day. you should feel comfortable in your skin. you should feel good about yourself. and you should never ever put someone else down for what they look like.

#don’t judge someone by what they look like #don’t judge someone by what they can’t control #destroy the beauty standards #rant #rant post #body posititivity #this user is so body positive #stop shaving!! have hair everywhere!! don’t feel the need to work out/eat less just because someone told you that you should lose weight!!#do what you wanna do with your body!!#its yours!#if you wanna lose weight #fine!#just do it for yourself. not for anyone else

jsyk, every time you like one of my silly running updates i am kissing the top of your head so hard :*

because i do not have a stereotypical runner's body and therefore in real life whenever i talk about how much i love running i get people absolutely questioning whether or not i am ACTUALLY "running" or not and that is so fucking disheartening you have no idea

#one day i said on a meeting that i went for a run earlier that day and was met with 'do you mean like...you walked and jogged?'#and i felt so terrible about myself afterward like why would you even ask me that????#i have also lost over 30 pounds in the last 6 months (swapped birth control for metformin to treat my pcos it's been life changing!!)#and only NOW are people like “keep up the good work with your running” like man stfu i was still running when i was heavy too!!!!#the weight loss certainly HELPS with my speed and endurance #but this is why i support body neutrality overall because i just want my body to do the things i want it to do #whatever shape my body takes as a result of that is inconsequential #daisyruns.txt

According to the Doctor Who Listened To Me, switching from my birth control to this new treatment could result in weight loss, if, indeed, my steady weight gain over the last decade or so was due to the birth control. I'm having severely mixed feelings about this possibility.

On the one hand, if I did lose all the weight birth control (presumably) made me gain, it would be much easier to interact with the world. Buying (and making) clothes would be much easier. Buying furniture, too, and cheaper besides. I'd be able to ride roller coasters again, sit in whatever seat in a theater, sit in booths in restaurants. I wouldn't have to ask for seatbelt extenders on planes, or worry about unintentionally invading someone's space because of how much I take up just by existing.

On the other hand...I've seen what happens when people lose that kind of weight. I've seen how much better they're treated. I am so desperate to protect the younger me who lives in my head from having it proven that it was her body that was incorrect, not the people around her. I don't want little girl me to have to know, conclusively, that they were right, that she would have had it so much better if she just lost the weight. I don't want to see just how much more desirable I would've been this whole time if I'd just been half the size I am. I don't want to know how many crushes would have liked me back if I'd just been smaller. I don't want to know exactly how unworthy I am now, as I currently am. And I'm terrified, because I know that if the weight does come off, I'll find out whether I want to or not.

#pedanticblah #dylan is sad #body image issues #weight talk #negative body talk #this isn't fishing for people to tell me how worthy i am now #i know i'm worthy. i know.#it's just hard to believe #and having it directly proven wrong would make it harder #if this treatment works it'll be worth whatever happens #but fuck am i conflicted about it #it's currently stuck waiting for a prior authorization #i hope that comes in before i run out of birth control #less effective birth control is still better than nothing

me having gone to bed at 6 am every day for the past week and generally spiraling mentally while rotting in bed waking up this morning: a 4 mile hike in the heat is a really good idea right now, and while we're at it let's start like 3 art projects
