@kripnal Those are not high calories. I’m 5’3, 122lbs, and walk 5 miles min daily. I do a stength training/pilates fusion 4x a week and do daily light mobility/flexibility. I maintain around 2k-2.2k.

@nathan2018 My 2024 goals include concentrating on mobility and functionality, supporting what I learned in physical therapy and not repeating back mistakes.

@chaplain777 If it makes you feel better, grapefruit messes with a ton of medications.

@nuke11 You probably won’t - don’t forget, there are other measurements than just the scale.

@dawn16 Oh my god I had no idea. I have hormonal acne so I’ve been on that for 2.5 years. But you know what, I can live with it. The chin acne hurt so much.

@lena27 Yeah, I’m still on it but I spend most of my time explaining “your lightest weight isn’t always your most optimal weight.” There’s like one mod on there as well.

@nuke11 Yep! Went down the disordered path, now on a more ordered one.

@jcnirfriends Yeah I totally understand. I was never athletic growing up until I was 17 when I decided to be as thin as possible (was a bad plan), then gained, then started losing around the completion of my masters, redeveloped some mental issues with food, then got better again. Now I finally...

@nuke11 The sedentary advice is something a lot of us end up having to break out of (and to be frank, you can find a lot of people commiserating about how toxic it was in anti-ED spaces). If you look on this and other subs, people’s definition of sedentary seems to be anything less than spending...

@jcnirfriends Hello! I am also 5’3, 28, and a PhD candidate. The week means nothing in the grand scheme of things, because it’s just life happening. You’re going to be sick, you’re going to go on vacation - you just get back in the saddle and work at it. Trying to compensate, or ruminating over...

@icashoutapp Bless you for commenting this because this sub makes me feel nuts being 5’3 and maintaining on 2-2300.

@chrismonolo Great points. This is what concerns me when I see the “I don’t want to lift weights, I just want to get as skinny as possible because I prefer the aesthetic” posts. You do you, just make an informed choice about the pros/cons that come with that decision. Bone density should...

@crosswalk1991 Ugh and the under fueling for the over exercise. There are so many stress fractures waiting to happen.

@pleasesaveme I think there are two trends we see, with some of the ones we’re thinking of for this trying to get to 18 bmi or slightly below. Or people that are trying to get to a lower number, but it’s killing their mental health and probably knees to do so. When you mention dwindling down...

@tavares Yes! This is more common than we’d hope (especially since this is petite fitness). A personal example for me, is that I’ve put on about 10 lbs weight lifting over a year and half. And I still have to work towards accepting that as a positive.

@tavares Same! And then you check their post history and it’s all the ED subs.

@rod288 Yeah my leanest was not my healthiest, mentally or physically.
