i want to be "curvy" Anonymous 18500[Reply]

can someone please tell me how the fuck to gain weight?
"just eat" isnt cutting it. are there any extra tips to get there faster?
i want to get fatter, not muscular btw, and i would rather do so without dying from mcdonalds and other grease
also i'm very slightly underweight and it's not like i'm some weirdo/ fat fetishist, just want to be and look better

Anonymous 18512

Eat bigger portions of healthy food. Drink vegetable and fruit juices. Add oils to your food.

I used to be underweight aswell and if you search around there are forums dedicated to healthy weight gain. Usually it's women trying to get their periods back. It's been a while so I can't give you any links, sorry.

peanut butter cookies have been my to-go. they're pretty calorie-dense. set reminders to eat and snack too. also, celebs are getting their implants removed since 'fat' is the norm now. if you are American over 80% of us are overweight. so they want to look skinny now to stand out from the crowd.

im not underweight but my friend would take a lot of protein/supplement powders that are really dense in calories for people that want to bulk. all you have to do is drink a milkshake or smoothie with it and you can get 1k calories super fast. Idk about how bad it is for your health though…

how do you dramatically change your face with makeup?
emiru is a pretty good example. look at photos of her without make out, it seems like she has the same facial structure as me (also asian mixed with white). but looks like a completely different person even on stream and in candid photos. is makeup really that powerful?

Anonymous 18540

>>18538
honestly i only see a drastic change in her eye makeup. she really darkens around her eyes to make them look bigger and change their shape + whitens her skin tone. I noticed all asian makeup really focuses on the eye area and giving yourself pale perfect skin lol. i think on stream its really the angle and lighting. But I recommend the youtube channel "dear peachie". a lot of asian and non asian girls vow to her channel for really indept tutorials and explanations… hope this helps a bit :)

What's your goal?

Anonymous 18533

My diet is usually literally just chocolate milk and soup. Beef and carrot or chicken and noodle. Chicken and dumplings if out of a can, I don't know how to make dumplings. Plus a vitamin. I have a crockpot I use. If you buy one and just throw everything into the pot it should usually work out. Usually. Drain the blood, it smells if you boil it, IMO

Also frozen white fish (like tilapia) and frozen vegetables. Canned tuna can be cheap too but try to limit it to a few times a week to avoid mercury poisoning. If you drink coffee switch to instant coffee (just think of it as something different than coffee and it's ok).

Healthy food is cheap to make and if you know what you're doing, you can make it taste good too.
If you have a target nearby, they have packs of six large chicken breast for under 3 dollars per pound. I like to trim them up and bread them in panko mixed with ground pepper, oregano, rosemary, and paprika. Then, you just fry them in peanut or corn oil. Super cheap to make, tasty and very healthy.

Anonymous 18126

Oats, rice, bananas, peanuts, sunflower seeds, and beans/lentils are cheap and healthy. Don't be afraid to season your food if you don't like things bland. Spices are proven to help slightly with weight loss.

Learn to cook if you don't know how to, you'll save a lot of money. Also if you're really broke you might want to start dumpster diving, there's a lot of ressources about it on the internet.

Dry Eye Disease Anonymous 17592[Reply]

Any other anons suffering from this? I am on prescription eye drops and even they don't help. My eyes are always red. I think Accutane caused this.

hi nona. im diagnosed with meibomian gland disease (chronic dry eye, eye produces low quality oils). taking oral contraception exacerbated it greatly. switched to a different form of bc and i am fine most days. still get dry eye from time to time if i stare at computer too long, diet is poor, poor sleep. hot towels on the eyes in the shower, exfoliating around eye area with wash cloth, and eating fish seem to help me. eye doctor told me to wash my eyes twice a day with baby soap but it made it worse. oh also be conscious of your blinking from time to time. blink harder for a minute or so to make sure your eyes are distributing its natural oils.

good luck nona. i was living with chronic MGB for a year and a half and it greatly reduced my quality of life. feel for u

Hot towels on the eye in shower? Do you wet with hot water before taking a shower and standing there for how many minutes?

Guys just cut some onions and your eyes will start tearing up. Quick and easy fix.

i never check this board sry for late reply.

i dont take fish oil pills because im really bad at remembering to take anything. i just eat fish like twice a week.

doctors recommend hot, wet towel for 15 minutes but im lazy. the logic with MGD is that the oils in your eye need to be heated in order to melt the oil that's causing blockage. do you ever look at your top and bottom water lines up close in the mirror? i can see the blockage sometimes. it looks like a really small, white stye. it's not a stye, just blocked oil gland. also didn't realize eyes produced oils until i got diagnosed with MGD lol

Prematurely ageing Anonymous 9201[Reply]

The stuff that my dermatologist gave me for my acne gave me noticeable premature wrinkles, and I STILL have acne, woohoo. I kept making sure with her, and she just brushed it off as normal, no big deal, your skin will become normal once the treatment is over. F-ing liar. I hate this. I look like 7 years older. I don't have the best looking face and this made me even more depressed. Whenever I try to improve it just blows up in my face, either by bad luck or people treating me shitty because of obvious autistic body language, thinking that they can get away with it.

nta but this definitely works, at home we have a huge bottle of it and it lightened the dark spots on my moms legs that she's had for years and her face in general. her hair has grown a lot too. i should start taking it too but i can't get past the taste. i think there's one's that are flavored but ours tastes like straight up fish

Get vitamin E capsules, break one open and rub the oil all over your face each night.
It's a bit greasy, but it works. Just wash with a gentle cleanser in the morning, then apply a high SPF moisturiser.

sweat smell between thighs Anonymous 18476[Reply]

I suggest a Dove, scent-free sensitive skin soap bar. Also, try using a dove deodorant between your thighs to rub chaffing.

How do i not get pregnant without torturing my body Anonymous 18346[Reply]

I just found out I'm pregnant again.

I have tried almost every type of birth control and all of them are terrible. Condoms trigger my ptsd. The pill gives me migraines that are dangerous and almost made me lose my job. The hormonal iud made me sick and fell out of place and left permanent scarring on my cervix. Depo made me go insane and killed my libido. I even have tried a diaphragm and spermicide but those made my vagina hurt and feel raw. The only ones i havent tried are the implant and the copper iud, but I'm sure the implant will make me sick like all other hormonal types and the copper iud is expensive and will probably fall out again. I've been trying to manage pregnancy with timing my natural cycles and using plan b if i feel its risky.

I love having sex and I'm very in love with my boyfriend. I got pregnant on the pill before a few years ago, and now I'm pregnant again.

I'm not opposed to having as many abortions as I need, but it's expensive, I'm worried what it'll do to my body if i continue, and it's stressful to be constantly worried about if I'm pregnant or not. Wtf do i even do besides be celibate or get my tubes tied (which I'm worried ill regret and again, expensive)

I hate this i just dont want to be sick anymore while not sacrificing the enjoyment of my relationship.

Anyone else in this situation? What are we supposed to do? I want to ask my boyfriend to get a vasectomy because its more easily reversible and cheaper than tubal ligation but that feels like an unfair thing to ask of him.

how does that work?

Anonymous 18471

if you're not going to be abstinent or try natural tracking then stop being irresponsible and ask him to do his part, ask him a vasectomy.

I was alright at first but you sound really stupid/brainwashed in this.

You want to have sex but you don't want a baby but you don't want to use condoms or pills or anything but you're still okay with abortion but you aknowledge the risk but having a little vasectomy would be unfair but you want sex anyway

do you think your boyfriend goes through the day asking himself all these questions? lol

the better option would still be natural tracking or just having the fucking baby but it's up to you. so tell him about all this first, then ask the vasectomy. his reaction will also say a lot about how he sees you.

Anonymous 18472

just realized i missed the line where you say you tried it the natural way so nvm at this, but the conclusion is the same

be responsible.

Anybody here have chronic pain, and how do you treat it? My body always hurts, should I worry about it progressively worsening? I'm 21.

Anonymous 18480

Have you seen a doctor?

Anonymous 18485

Seconding seeing a doctor. Chronic pain can be caused by all sorts of things. About 3 years ago my body started hurting all the time, was extremely worried about it getting progressively worse, then after seeing many doctors got diagnosed with a joint hypermobility/defective connective tissue condition. Mine probably won't get progressively worse as long as I exercise and keep my muscles in shape to hold my joints in because my connective tissue can't. I also have neurological issues that are probably linked to it (migraines and seizures during my period). Also I have autism so I notice every single pain at a higher intensity than most people would so a lot of doctors wouldn't see anything wrong with me from tests and imaging. (being a woman probably also played into them not believing me)

I tried various combinations of steroids, gabapentin, NSAIDs, SSRIs for the pain, but the side effects were unacceptable in each case; aggression, dementia/stiff joints, stomach irritation eventually, and complete numbing of emotions respectively. This does not mean that you will have these same side effects, try them if your doctor suggests them because even if you do have the same side effects I did it'll go away a few weeks after you stop. I found that CBD has the best pain relief:side effect ratio for me but I've had to stop while looking for a job because it pops drug tests.

tl;dr: see a doctor, stay in shape, medications may or may not help.
