I've been craving ice cream which usually hapens when I diet a little too hard so I had 100 extra calories at lunch instead.

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……

How much are you walking? Walking doesn'tuse up that many calories but it does add up.

finally got a doctor that would give me ozempic for my pcos and have lost 20kilo
never even think about food anymore and it cured my pmdd too
kinda crazy

There's something in chocolate and the junk you used to consume that you're missing nutritionally and its messing up your metabolism

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.

>>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.

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.

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 :)

men will find you revolting, as well as everyone else

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.

>>22137
Hijab and wearing burqa wont help.
>t. Arab hijabi

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.

> Do women really have thicker hair depending on the region?
Uh yeah obviously

I'm in a larger German city and when I go to the pool, I notice that almost all women my age are pretty clean-shaven, like no armpit- nor leg hair. I used to feel pressured to shave too, but now that just inspires me more to stick to not shaving. The only reason I'd do it is to avoid negative comments, I couldn't care less about being attractive to any potential partners.
So far in all these years, I've never received a bad comment about not shaving though, even though my hair is pretty dark. But I'm not a teenager anymore, I assume adults keep such comments to themselves for the most part or just don't care as much.
I guess body hair is seen as something to be shaven for women here, while for men it can be seen as embarrassing. (My cousin shaves his legs and he actually hides how much care he puts into that from his immediate family (he has a laser device and everything)).
I don't want to bend to that kind of social pressure though. But I'd never look down on women who do shave; if you worry that not doing it will make you look bad when you are aiming to be attractive to someone in this culture, it makes sense I guess…

Did you check the catalog? There's already a diet thread.

Webp maybe? Try capturing again with the snip tool

I've posted in this thread or another thread before but I'm still learning the multiplication table up to 15. Skip counting is helping. I'm making progress but since I'm an adult I'm too embarrassed to tell anyone.

>>22138
15? Is it for hex or something, I only elementary going up to 12

>>22139
I'm trying to memorize 1-9 up to 15. No particular reason.

What you have on in the photo seems perfectly fine tbh

More than makeup, you should focus on hairstyles that flatter your face.
Your hair is very pretty in the photo, but its framing is almost exaggerating the outline of your face.
Try something with more occlusion.
You've got the right idea with the curtain on the left, but the right is fully exposed.

These "suggestions" are terribly bad-faith.

Why do you hate her

>>22080
If you are skinny it's okay. No one's going to treat you like you're sub-human. If you're fat but have no hips you are fucked.

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).

Ugliness is irrelevant to the question.

Just stop doing it. Be the change you want to see in the world.

>>21245
Amen.

You aren’t expected to do so, but doing so does come with certain social privileges

>>21228
The guy on this picture have heavy makup, just another style of makeup.

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.
