Helloo! :]

Oh wow you can have pinned posts here now! Fancy that.

Hi there! I’m Vin. I’m a Tumblr oldbie who has migrated back home after 6yrs due to The Horrors on the bird app.

I’m pretty shy but my askbox is always open for...basically anything! I crave socialization despite how hard it is for me.

I really enjoy just exploring tags and curating my own blog tags to go back to and enjoy. Maybe you’ll like them too! Here’s an ever-growing list of the tags you can check out here!

Great news everyone. There was a kitten wandering in the drive thru at work and my inner warrior cats kid tried to be a hero and capture him.

I have now suffered multiple puncture wounds and have to go to the emergency room.

Me: I shall become his mother and gain his trust

Me talking to an animal control officer five minutes later: he is a nasty horrid little boy and I am bleeding heavily

Animal control officer on the phone: So he’s in your car with you?

Me: Um. It’s his car now and he’s very mad at me.

Second animal control officer: oh you captured him and got him in your car? He’s friendly?

Me, my right hand completely wrapped in paper towels: wouldn’t say that

Urgent Care Nurse: Wow it’s strange he managed to get you so many times.

Me: I uh. Did not let go.

You vibe as someone prone to toxic relationships

People on tumblr will just say anything huh.

Oh cmon, "he hurt me a lot cause i couldn't let go" absolutely has double interpretation.

Me, holding a cat (of unknown gender) as it repeatedly digs its little teeth deep into my flesh: Is this… too… yuri?

Image reads:

  • Here is a simple rule, eat when you are hungry and stop when you are full. Eat many different foods. There are no “bad” foods.
  • It’s not good for you to diet, skip meals or avoid entire groups of foods. If you do not eat lots of different kinds of foods, you may not feel well and could make yourself sick. Skipping meals can make Youso hungry that you eat too much food when you finally do have a meal or snack.
  • Fat makes food taste good and helps you feel full. You may find you get hungry faster and want to eat more often if you eat mostly non-fat foods. Eating only foods labelled as “low-fat” or “non-fat” does not always mean you are eating well.

I think the poster is pretty clear but just to emphasize: “too much food” is not a matter of grams or calories or macros. “Too much food” is when you give yourself indigestion. This happens most often when you are either so hungry that you eat really fast, or when you’re mostly paying attention to something else.

I’ve seen plenty of “diet tips” that encourage eating slowly, drinking water between bites, and not eating in front of a screen, and those are mostly aimed at getting you to eat less in general – but they are useful tips if you have a tendency to get overfull.

A lot of people who’ve been through the diet wringer have a hard time distinguishing feelings of hunger and satiety because they’ve been eating in ways that aren’t right for their bodies. Diets tend to require you to ignore your hunger for a long time, either by fasting or by not eating enough to feel full, which almost always leads in the end to eating much more than you need to feel full because your body is screaming at you for sustenance. Getting back in touch with your body’s actual needs after extended dieting can be a long process.
