@66bookssss I don't know your therapist or how she communicated that, but I can see how part of acceptance comes from reframing that need part. At a US size 10, you do not need to lose weight. Your health is not in danger and I presume your body isn't under heavy strain. You do not need it...

@kuysniks That seems like a lot of protein. You should be fine at around 90-100 grams. The overall caloric intake seems fine to me. Being 250 calories above maintenance is usually what I recommend if you're being consistent. Make sure that your training is matching the bulk. You need a routine...

@66bookssss Not every feeling needs to be validated. I feel like internet therapy speak has really hammered "your feelings are valid" sentiments into our heads, but there's a disturbing lack of nuance to that type of sentiment. Your feelings are valid in the sense that you are a human being...

@judenshabbot It's not your long lost brother 🥲 It's just a measurement. Aka not a big deal. You don't base your self worth on your height or shoe size I presume. Like I said, you gotta just learn to make peace with it. I don't think that the weight on the scale is always irrelevant or that it...

@judenshabbot Why do you look at it then? A scale is a tool. Why use a tool that causes you harm rather than actually helps you? Wouldn't you rather focus on other tools at your disposal? (Your health, the way you feel, hell even the mirror if you're saying you like how you look).

@jg_lrd If you guys really wanna challenge yourselves with yoga, you could try Patrick Beach. I'm a pretty consistent weight lifter so I consider myself moderately strong and I can't finish some of his workouts or have to constantly do the modifications
