I know I have a lot of asks, a lot of obvious ones, but you guys seem to know more than I do. Is the paragraph below true?

"Small, routinely dispersed meals increase BMR. On the other hand, starvation can reduce BMR by as much as 30%. Similar to a phone that goes into power-saving mode during the last 5% of its battery, a human body will make sacrifices such as energy levels, moods, upkeep of bodily physique, and brain functions in order to more efficiently utilize what little caloric energy is being used to sustain it."

I do OMAD. I find it easier to just not eat at all than to restrict during the day. But now I'm thinking that my bmr, which is already low, might be lower than I thought. And to lose weight, I believe you have to go at least 500 below your bmr??

Does anyone else feel like when their other mental illness is doing bad, you feel you can easier justify your 3d?

I have social anxiety, and my friend and her bf (who I went to the beach with last weekend) are going to the beach today without me. This has triggered a sense of rejection even though they're lovely people just spending the day together as a couple. Nevertheless, anxiety will have me thinking I did something wrong and they don't want to be with me. My first thought was, "well fuck them, I'm ⭐️ving myself, I lost weight today, I'm going to be thin!" Which can't possibly be what I really think?

At least I'm self-aware, right?....right??

For the love of my mother, please don't let me binge today!!

I've planned a higher intake today because we're going to a restaurant for Mother's Day. I'm planning on just tipping the 1000 scale, it'll probably come to about 1200, which is my general bmr. This is the plan:

Glass of water, no ice (for digestion) Cappuccino 250-300ml - 80-100 Ask for tabasco (spicy make metabolism🔥) Chargrilled rump steak 200g - 422 Roquefort sauce 150 ml - 240 Garden Salad 2 cups - 24 Total: 800 (786) One of the following: Castle lite 300ml - 100 Rainbow paradise cocktail - 228 Gin and tonic watermelon - above 200 Amarula hot chocolate - 300ish

The calories are not on the menu or website, so I'm relying on the internet, which isn't always accurate. Thus, I'm rounding it to 1200. I find if I just keep track of my cals, I generally don't binge. If anyone has tips for digestion I'd be so grateful😇

Update: I wouldn't say I binged, but I did go over my cal target by about 250. The salad was higher than expected, and I had the amarula hot chocolate. When I came home, I tried to have the things I'd been craving, like wine and half an orange. But then I got hold of the sweets I'd been saving and ate a few of those🫠 so I took the amount I went over and subtracted it from today's target. Hopefully, I'm at my next gw tomorrow.

I have 2 friends. One is starting to talk to me less and the other is moving away. I’m going to be all alone AGAIN.

I don’t mind it but investing so much time and money is pointless if i’m gonna keep losing people.

It’s also just exhausting getting excited and being happy only for it to be temporary. I should stop getting my hopes up.
