I got an unsolicited compliment on my body today which made me feel good! I didn't realize how much I craved validation but I feel more secure in gaining weight now.

Anonymous 22265

I ate (half of) the rice that came with my lunch even though I knew it wasn't calculated into the calorie count I looked up earlier. It was great!

Anonymous 22273

I've been feeling weak and super hungry this week and I realized it's probably because I've been under my calorie goal for the past few days. I'm going to try to honor my hunger and eat when I need to.

Anonymous 22312

I think I need to up my calories more. Lately in the afternoon I'm completely exhausted and coffee only mildly helps.

First Halloween season in years where I've eaten the treats I've been given. It feels nice to enjoy holidays normally.

How bad does my body look? Anonymous 22181[Reply]

I'm chubby and working on it, currently 58kg trying to reach 50kg, but I don't know if that will be enough, I fear that losing weight won't really make me look that much better since my hips are so narrow. I'm not asking if I should give up on losing weight, I'm asking how bad my body looks.

because you are a normal-looking woman who thinks she is fat. I used to do the same thing, and it took YEARS to realize they gave me body dysmorphia. You are beautiful Nona, don't let yourself get bullied into thinking you are ugly.

You are kind of fat with a weird body, but so what? Who are you being skinny for again? We both know, so be honest with yourself. The male gaze is not worth appealing to.

Anonymous 22315

I mean, in it's core, yeah, female beauty is about being appealing to men. But you have to admit it's evolved beyond that. Women don't consciously want to be beautiful only to seem appealing to men, it's a new kind of self-worth, it changes how everyone treats and sees you, including women.

Anonymous 22316

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?

Synthesizing these, letting dick cheese ferment would bleach their dick.

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

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

Yes
Some parts are supposed to be darker like nipples and the anus and this is normal because the skin tissue is different from the rest of the body

Don't internalize porn beauty standards ffs

>>22084

Fuck that

Anonymous 22314

if this is about not appealing to the moid gaze, then let me tell you right now, some of them LOVE it.

if this is about a personal insecurity, then let me say that darkness on the butt, crotch, or armpits is normal for both sexes, and being ashamed of it is another part of racial light skin dynamics that dominate beauty culture. You are fine and normal, and spending tons of money on weird creams and topicals will not fix the problem and could even cause it to get worse if you create rough spots or cause hyperpigmentation from the inflammation.

nonas does walking actually reduce body fat at all, despite being in a pretty harsh deficit it seems like walking around has done nothing but make my calves bigger……

stinky from stress/bodily anxiety Anonymous 22246[Reply]

nonas, what do you do about sweating/producing odor from sweating? I shower frequently and keep good hygiene but it seems persistent. Other than deodorant and perfume, I can’t think of anything else. I don’t shave or do hair removal because I’m on a tight budget but apparently it helps remove smell. Are there any foods or drinks that remove body odor?

Inb4 “stop stressing”, that’s for /feels/ and is something I’m working on.

My friend got prescription deodorant and then eventually got her sweat glands removed completely… So maybe to a doctor. Also how often do you wash your bath towel? Odor can get onto you from that too.

Anonymous 22253

>>22251
I use a clean towel. i have two and wash them each week/twice a wk. So at most I use one towel like 2-3 times. I also do exfoliation with one of those body scrubber cloths and put it thru the washing machine weekly.

green tea and spearmint tea helped me with anxiety/stress body odor. i had the same problem.

men's deodorant also helps if you're able to budget it. it's not my favorite but it helps so much and typically that gross man-smell dissipates quickly.

Anonymous 22278

Eating greens, veggies(avoid onion tho), fruits, drinking lots of water all generally help with that.

I know you asked about foods specifically, but for me being in solitude in a well lit room helps a lot with keeping stress away too. I can't stand being in the same room with someone else for too long tbh it drives me insane and stresses me out. It's situational, but maybe it could be relevant to someone.

Anonymous 22286

>>22257
I tried the men’s deodorant trick, laying my regular + my perfume over it and deodorizing around the other sweat gland area. This was a lifesaver. Also been drinking the teas on a regular and eating more veggies Thank you nona :)

"man repellent outfits" Anonymous 21935[Reply]

I see this trend of women online dressing insanely hyperfeminine and bold, then calling it "man repellent" because I guess men are put off by women who are so bold? But actually I feel like this isvery negative messaging, because it reinforces the idea that what you wear has anything to do with if a woman is harassed on the street.
Also, since when is dressing in frilly dresses and makeup something men don't like? Wanna know what men REALLY hate?? Women who seem not to care at all about their appearance, because men are incredibly cruel to women they perceive as ugly. Though being ugly wont stop us from being harassed, unfortunately.

It’s utter larp. Men are repelled by a shaved head and unrevealing, cringe clothing. These normgroid, pseudo-feminists are just partaking in a strangely named a trend.

Men are going to leer no matter what you wear. Hijabs and burqas are the logical extreme of "man repellent" yet guys will still find a way. his just seems really pointless; wear what you like.

This. There is no outfit that will stop harassment from a man you encounter late at night at an unsafe place. I'm not even from a country that imposes any clothing on women and was just wearing full winter garb, coat, scarf, hat, you could barely see my face, I'd just gotten off a call and started reading a book at night when some guy came up to me with "do you have fire" and when I didn't, that fucker took out his own lighter to light up his cigarette and proceeded to harass me, talking about my eyes because it was one of the few things I hadn't covered, they really don't give a shit, anything that vaguely implies woman is subject to harassment as soon as there's any vulnerability to exploit, like being alone at night for 5 fucking minutes while you're just waiting for your bus. I was lucky there was an open shop nearby where I could go to get away from this creep and I ended up not even having to because another guy came by who told this creep off for me and I could get home without anyone following me, but damn, at this point you'd straight up have to pretend to be a perhaps tall and intimidating guy late at night to avoid this kind of "flirting". It was a one time thing and I usually feel quite safe so I don't feel that pressured to alter my appearance out of fear of harassment, but I get why people try. I don't think there's anything you can wear to really avoid harassment 100%, especially if you're petite or even just short like me (I don't know if it's true, but it's my assumption that short people get harassed more often) so you might as well wear whatever you want, right… I also don't want my clothing options to be restricted just because some asshole harassed me once. Like, I occasionally wear more revealing stuff but the only time I was harassed when I was wearing something that showed more skin was my regular bathing suit (not even my bikini) at the pool and that was like 1 time out of hundreds of times of being at the pool and once again, I was harassed because I was alone and the guy was twice my size and could get away with it. I think harassment has everything to do with vulnerability and less with how attractively you're dressed. I've mostly been harassed when I was a teenager, never did anything for my appearance either (too lazy for make-up and shaving) but I was a visibly anxious teen to the point that boys would outright kick me on the stPost too long.

Why do women go so far for moid approval and validation?

>moid approval
I mean… Technically yes but also no. All beauty is designed to appeal to the moid tastes, so at it's root, it's still for moid approval, but it's not what these women have on their mind when doing this, nowadays beauty is not only needed to attract men but to be at peace with yourself and feel like you have any value at all.
