Why does the OS allow that in the first place? Even grapheneos allows apps to do that and it's so stupid. Especially when the app has a website version where I can do whatever I want.

I didn't lose the weight too quickly and the excess skin had enough time to adjust. I have to admit that it slightly decreased, but not too much.

I also don't believe that I can gain enough muscle mass to fill that region.

Thanks for the advice! I may look into surgery in the future if I still want to. Accepting that it'll stay forever like that is tough, but in the longer term, it is a great way to go.

I don't know how to meme with the fediverse

I'm browsing 9gag for years. I see everything and I can opt out of topics.

On lemmy I have to actively subscribe to subs. That means I miss out on topics I'm not aware of. On pixelfed I also have to actively search for a tag. Same for mastodon.

How can I have a similar experience to 9gag (I am not speaking of the content. A lot of content is not what I am looking for. I refuse to make an account on 9gag but I'm fine wirh a fediverse account.

Eating healthy with a great variety of food. I eat as many vegetables as I want, lots of tofu and beans, less and less sugar and alcohol. I’m limiting carbs because of the high energy density. protein target is 0.8-1g per kg of body weight. Going vegan made shopping, cooking, and storing food much easier. I avoid big meals in restaurants, as they usually don’t contain enough protein and have too many carbs and too few vegetables. I’ve also replaced most of the sugar in sweets with erythritol. Of course movement helps but you can't outrun a bad diet.

I've read about shrinking skin a couple of times, yet I haven't seen people where it shrunk. Not that I wouldn't believe it, but I haven't ever seen someone posting a before/after pic of how happy s/he is that the skin is finally gone.

Thanks for the reminder! It's important to hear it over and over in order not to develop bad habits

The local supermarket takes protein bar protection. Anyway does anyone know how to open these cases ?

That's because almost everyone eats too much (bad) stuff.

If you are on a cut, you have to select your food wisely in order to get enough protein while still maintaining the cut.

Also, it is wiser to eat too much protein than limit your gains due to a shortage in protein. Imagine working out and not getting the additional reward for the additional set because you eat too little protein.
