Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

meeting my partner's mum tonight for dinner. she's gonna be in town for a month. i saw her a few days ago, before she even said "how are you" she asked "did you gain some weight, i noticed your face is rounder now".

it's the darn meds, i'm doing IF still and my lifestyle is the same, but just getting fatter and fatter :/

I really don't understand why the older generation cares about whether we look fat and whether we're becoming fat. Like c'mon... It's technically fine as long as you don't reach unhealthy levels. Don't feel bad about the comments, it's just what meds do to people.

My mom has been nagging me since forever. Even now that I am as slim as I have never been(imagine it takes till 23 for me to become actually slim lol), she's still nagging me because I still have thigh fat. I'm aware that it's still not good enough, but I'd appreciate if she could cut me some slack... It's not like the fat will disappear overnight. She kept saying I should aim to be like that one woman who's super tall but has super thin legs then I'll be a beauty like her 🌚

i think they come from a position of care, our elders have different ways of showing love. So I try not to let them get to me.

so long as you're happy with where you are that's all that matters.

That's true... I'm more inclined to believe in the BMI theory, although body fat percentage does not directly correlate with body mass.

Arh, break a leg. It's always darn meds things up XD.

[–] dukeGR4@monyet.cc 1 points 11 months ago

Have to reduce food intake further… or incorporate a ton of protein lol. I’m too broke for that rn.

[–] weecious@monyet.cc 1 points 11 months ago

Sorry to hear. I'm also on med and gained 3 kilos in a short amount of time. These med sucks, but we need them =/.

I cannot lower my food intake that much as I'm worried I won't have enough calories and nutrients.

So apparently covid test kit is harder to get now huh :/

On another news, it seems feddit.uk is moving to another domain/instance as the only admin is MIA

[–] weecious@monyet.cc 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

For real? Let me know if you need some, I just stocked up a month ago.

[–] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ahh, it's okay, i know i can get some online if i wanted. No point in that now since i'm almost recovered

If you're willing to spend RM150, do a PCR test at BP Healthcare to be certain.

[–] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 1 points 11 months ago

Oof, that's way too expensive
