wip wednesday <3 :)

hello friends :) happy wednesday, hope you are well! happiest of birthdays to my babygirl Alex Claremont-Diaz, love you endlessly my beautiful big brained bisexual disaster with a heart of gold

thank you to @jellibuns @junebugclaremontdiaz @violetbaudelaire-quagmire @hgejfmw-hgejhsf @piratefalls @bigassbowlingballhead @leojfitz @ships-to-sail @suseagull04 @dragonflylady77 @kiwiana-writes @onthewaytosomewhere @wordsofhoneydew @priincebutt @magicandarchery @leaves-of-laurelin @eusuntgratie @duchessdepolignaca03 @saturntheday @itsmaybitheway @captainjunglegym @indestructibleheart @oxfordslutphase @tailsbeth-writes for the tags this week and on sunday :)

here's a snip from a tiny spy au coming this week if i can wrangle these men into submission:

“I'm serious, Alex. No theatrics. Certainly no blood. What's the code for trouble?” “Barracuda.” Henry clicks his tongue. “Too many syllables for my taste.” “Your name is too many syllables for my taste, yet you don't see me complaining.” “Touché.” He grasps Alex's shoulder, taking a long look into Alex's eyes. Henry's body is serene, but his eyes are always his tell for Alex. They're cloudy, tense; murky waters. “Be careful, please. We both know how dangerous these men are. Manu is unpredictable, even as the mafia equivalent of a middle manager.” “Aw, worried about me, sweetheart?” Alex grins, but it's a little unsteady, faltering at the edges. “Henry. This is easy. And if I’m lucky, no dicks will have to come out.” He laughs, but there’s no humor in it. He really, really doesn’t want any dicks out this time. “See you in five, okay?” He squeezes Henry's arm, then slips out of the supply closet. Back to work.

so many meals can be bolstered by just throwing a handful of frozen spinach in there while you cook it. scrambled eggs? add some spinach. ramen? add some spinach. mac and cheese? add some spinach, baby!

#eliot posts #specifically i use a bag of frozen spinach so you can just dump some into the pot #the frozen blocks do NOT work for this purpose #unless you wanna add way too much spinach or go at the block with a gd icepick #and i prefer frozen to fresh bc fresh needs to be Kept Track Of or else it will go yucky in your fridge #frozen spinach is fine with being forgotten about for months #idk how much nutrition the spinach actually adds but it at least makes the meals FEEL less depressing #and prevents the dawning horror of ''dear god i cannot actually remember the last time i ate a vegetable'' from occurring #this is no longer a sad 30 cent brick of ramen in sad packet broth. now there is leaf! sometimes even egg/onion too! #i will still eat it directly out of the pot bc i am too depressed to clean a bowl tho.

three month countdown .ೃ࿐

it's october now and there are only three months until 2024 (yikes)

i'm sure a lot of us are feeling like we haven't accomplished all that we wanted to, but guys... three months is a long time. it's not too late to start. it never is. i personally felt like i could've been doing more, but honestly i know that i've been in a rough patch and that's on me. i feel like if we want to start again now, we have to be willing to forgive ourselves for not already being where we want to be. i have forgiven my self and now it's time to improve.

i want to build some good habits that'll allow me to kick off 2024 to an amazing start. here are my habits i want to build and some more that could inspire you!

habits i want to build

exercising 4 times a week

i used to exercise all the time because i was apart of a sports team. this year i decided to focus on my academics more, but as a result my fitness declined rapidly. i know i could have done both and my exercising would then benefit my academics, but what's done is done. i'm going to do 2 hiit workouts and 2 run/jogs around the block. i'm a firm believer that you don't need to go to the gym to be fit. it can be a money drainer for a lot of people.

clean my room every morning

i've become sloppy with this, it's kind of embarrassing. anyway, i'm going to start waking up and making my bed right away. when i come home i'm going to put stuff where it all belongs. just finding a place for everything will help keep it looking tidy.

read 2 chapters (at least) of a book a day

these habits are things i was doing at the start of the year, but kinda fell off track. to help with building this habit i'm going to put away distractions and go to my local library to keep stuff interesting.

other habit ideas:

waking up early (5-6AM)

going to sleep early (8-10PM)

morning walks

daily journalling

budgeting

drink 2-3L of water everyday (carry a water bottle around!!)

i'll be posting more content on exactly how to build habits so stay tuned!

Today marks my seventh day of tracking macros. While hitting my goal of 102g of protein a day is still a work in progress, I've stuck to my caloric deficit of 1362 kcal.

Tracking has made me more aware of how much I used to overeat, and I'm thankful for that realization. Allowing myself to enjoy some dark chocolate in moderation has been a nice treat that still fits into my caloric allowance.

Being in a caloric deficit has also changed how I see physical tasks. Now, I view them as a way to burn extra calories and get stronger.

I've noticed improvements too – more energy and avoiding late-night eating has led to better sleep. I've somewhat intuitively stopped eating after 4 pm, and that's worked well for me.

Paying attention to my water intake and taking my supplements regularly also gives me a sense of accomplishment. These little wins keep me going as I look forward to making more progress.

Fast And Simple Weight Gain Tips - Continued Part 2

This article is a continuation of my previous post on weight gain tips. If you missed that here is the link.

Here are 5 more weight gain tips to help you with your weight gain goals.

Weight Gain Tip 6 — Plan Ahead

To see results when gaining weight requires patience. If you are following the correct ways to gain weight healthily then you will see a gradual increase in weight.

You should try eating every 2 to 3 hours. However if you are unsure what to eat for your next meal you may go too long without eating.

So plan and make a list of nutrient and calorie dense foods or meals.

Weight Gain Tip 7 — Gradually Increase Your Calorie Intake

If you don’t eat enough then your body will not be used to eating a lot of food. So take your time as you begin to increase the size of your meals.

Take for example a toast. If you are having one slice for breakfast then try two slices next time.

Eating one egg then try two eggs next time

It’s all about small changes now adding up to huge changes later.

Weight Gain Tip 8 — Eat More Protein-Rich Foods

Productive weight gain comes from increases in muscle mass.

But to do that, you need to supply your body with plenty of protein — the macronutrient which provides you with the building blocks you need for muscle and every other kind of lean tissue in the body

A protein powder supplement is also a convenient way of adding more protein to your diet.

Weight Gain Tip 9 — Eat More Than Your Body Burns

Did you know that every time your body makes any movements, it loses calories? Of course this also depends on the lifestyle you are living and how active you are.

If you are living a busy and hectic lifestyle then your body is burning lots of calories.

For example, if you ate 1,000 calories and, then went to the gym and burnt 1,000 calories then you are back at square one.

Yes that means nothing.

If you are not gaining weight then you might be eating less than your body is burning.

Weight Gain Tip 10 — Exercise

The fundamental thing you need to keep in mind is that if you want to get bigger, you need to get stronger. Some exercises are better suited to help you achieve that than others.

As an underweight individual just starting out at the gym, focus on compound exercises such as:-

Barbell rows Bench press Deadlifts Pull-ups Overhead press Squats

These exercises should make the majority of your training, and your goal should be to get stronger on them progressively

You will be sure to stimulate muscle growth, and, by extension, healthy weight gain

Of course, good nutrition is essential for weight gain, and you can’t disregard it on your journey of getting bigger.

standing over the kitchen sink eating coconut cream by the spoonful straight out of the can kinda sunday

#cool story charlotte #i should not have looked at the nutrition label omg #50 calories PER TABLESPOON??? #i am not one to count calories or track my eating BUT i like to have a general idea and uh #oof

[petits--oiseaux]

So I am aware that I don't eat a lot of things that scream protein but damn, keeping track of my macros in the last few days I'm thinking how much protein I don't have! I'm at the end of the work day, just dinner and maybe a snack left for food, and only 13g of protein when my goal is 120! WHAT.

Sometimes I get the idea in my head that tracking every single thing means I'm going to care way too much and it'll turn obsessive and yada yada, but each time I start tracking again I start realizing something new. Usually it reminds me that I'm not eating enough but now I'm shown how much is lacking in these areas and it's wild. This is why tracking is/can be important (note to self). This is how we (me) start intuitively eating. You don't know what you don't know til you know it.

at the point in my biking bullshit where i have to research like. nutrition and shit. like yeah this bitch (my body) needs 40-60 grams of carbs per hour in order to prevent collapsing after mile 30. yeah sure i will click the link for your rice cream cheese coconut based soylent green recipe scientifically proven to contain the most carbs per carb of all time. my root chakra totally isn't destroyed and im totally going to make it 🤪

#the world at large: 'all exercise is good for you' any biking forum: 'yeah i just had a great ride where i #sucked down $40 worth of biking gels like i was a fois gras goose“ #to be fair. this recipe might be enough to salvage the rest of my day from the shakes and the dizziness et al that comes from me waiting to #have a huge fucking sandwich at home after my ride. gay ass little soylent green biker cubes for my fannypack. its fine its totally fine. #ive had to lightly track my nutrition and energy intake since my 20 miles just because its the responsible thing to do. but planning an #entire day schedule of what to eat makes me feel like a dumbass i guess.

okay note to self: it takes approximately 2.5 hours (fed and hydrated properly) for the ibuprofen to kick in enough to give me the ability to move *some*. It does still hurt but oh god is it less than it was.

#chronic pain #i'm *very* bad at taking my meds #i know it helps i enforce med taking on others when they need it #but i will put off taking it for myself because i'm ''supposed to power through'' or some bullshit #and i'm working on not doing that and just taking meds when it hurts #but goddamn if that isn't about half as annoying as the pain in the first place #like yes it helps but like remembering to take the medicine then keeping up with how long it is until i can take more #and making sure i've got proper nutrition and hydration to help it work the best and not tear up my digestive track #and then waiting for it to fade out before i'm allowed to take more meds #and having to sit in pain just long enough that i forget the medicine worked initially so i don't take more when i'm supposed to #because well it didn't do anything anyway (except it did a little tho) #and then...anyway yeah i'm just like... #you know on top of the physical reasons i was blamed for my body hurting i was told it was due to my depression #and that as soon as my depression got worked out and i felt better it would stop hurting #except that didn't happen and actually it hurts more now that i don't have as bad of depression #because i'm not feeling it through the fog/using it as a punishment on myself for being sad #i hate this shit

Ignoring the person you’re upset with and refusing to tell them what you’re mad about and withdrawing from everyone is not a healthy way to express anger or upset. It makes everyone around you miserable and isn’t productive in any way

#my thoughts #vague posting about my parents #it’s hell trying to avoid when they’re like this because you never know when they’re gonna blow up #it’s SHIT #COMPLETE SHIT #and it makes me so angry #because I could be having a fine time. I could be fine #but instead my nerves are shot and I’m anxious as hell #and I would move out for this reason alone. but I can’t. I can’t afford it nor do I want to live in an apartment. #so I feel desperately stuck #fingers crossed I get a full time promotion sometime soon so I can save up to eventually buy a house #it’s important for my mental health that I have an environment with emotional stability #because I CANT TAKE THIS ANYMORE #might delete later #I’ve made so much progress on treating myself better physically and it’s gone out the window the past couple days #because I’m so anxious #I’ve done better today #trying to get back on track #because not eating until shaky and eating things that lack nutritional value makes it worse #and not drinking water also

i really hate the holier than thou attitude people on social media have when they make their little posts about "diet culture" (it's always left really vague and nebulous on purpose ig) being unequivocally bad

a lot of people on the net do not seem to realize there's a giant middle ground between "literally just have an eating disorder" and "it's always acceptable to eat whatever you want in any quantity, you should never introspect on this or it means you're unwell. all food is healthy"

reading posts like the latter unironically gives me anxiety that i wouldn't have had before

#like its so obviously not the case and i think people know that and just want an excuse for not being great about their nutritional intake #it's not a red flag for a person to track macros or pay attention to fiber content or whatever
