Little You-s and I-s
Tumblr media
Thomas Shelby x Reader
Summary: You and Tommy deal with the changes that come with your pregnancy.
Your pregnancy changed you a lot.
You became more sensitive to smell for example.
One evening, Thomas arrived home from the bar, and as soon as you caught the smell of drinks and smoke on him, you rushed to the bathroom.
Then there was the incident when you craved fish but before you could cook it, the smell of it caught your nose and again, rushing for the toilet you went.
Thomas was incredibly happy when you told him the news, having his own family with you was always a goal of his.
What he didn't like however is just how sensitive you became and one thing that set it off easily was his cigarettes.
Thomas smoked a lot, so for him to not be able to do that in his own home was a bit challenging, but he still found ways to smoke one or two in the furthest part of the garden. Even then, sometimes the wind carried the smell right back to you.
"No smoking and no drinks!" yelled Tom at John as he pulled out a cigarette.
"What? Why?"
"My wife is pregnant, she is sensitive to the smell."
"Oooh, it got that bad huh?" asked John as you entered the room with a tray, on the tray there were some cookies and tea.
"I'll appreciate if you can hold yourself from smoking just this once John, the smell of it just..."
"No problem, thank you for the tea."
"I'll leave you to it." you smiled at your husband who nodded before he turned to John, talking about business.
When lunchtime was approaching, both John and Tom found themselves in the kitchen where you were currently chopping up some carrots and crying.
"Darling, I'm sure the carrots don't mind us eating them."
"Tell that to the headless chicken in the oven, Thomas!" you quickly said back making both men take a step back, Thomas should have known not to argue with you.
Both headed into the dining room instead.
"Is pregnancy supposed to affect a woman this much?" asked John in a hushed tone.
"I think so? I'm no expert John. Arthur has children, he might know more."
"She is glowing though. She was crying but she still looked like a Goddess."
"Can't argue with that, John. But keep your wandering eyes to yourself, she is my wife."
"Does she always cry during cooking?"
"As of late, yes. Yesterday, she made salmon, cried her heart about as she was talking about the poor little fishies the one she cooked left behind. But then this morning, she cried when she made salad. Saying the potatoes didn't deserve to die this way."
"So, she is sensitive to smell, cries when the cooks, can't get worse than that, I'd say."
"She talks back like I have never heard before."
"Okay, I was wrong it can get worse. You mean to tell me, that my lovely shy sister-in-law talks back? The one who didn't dare to tell you she didn't like the ring you gave her?" Thomas made a face at John's confession.
"She didn't like the ring?"
"No, she said she wished you would have given her something more simple. But she didn't want to tell you because she would hurt your feelings."
"Well now, with my child under her heart, she is not afraid to talk from her heart. The other day she told me I should dress better, apparently my suits make me look old. Then she wanted to dance and when I said I don't have the energy she complained that I never have when it comes to her. This is true sadly, however, the latest one... oh Johnny, my boy just before you arrived, she told me to ask you not to smoke and when I told her that you will be free to do as you please, the look. That look I know well, it's the look of someone who is about to murder. She said I either tell you to not smoke or-" Thomas stopped as he felt a shiver run down his spine, both men turned towards the door only to find you with the food in your hands on a tray. 
You approached them and placed the food in front of them. The air was cold, John swore he could have cut the tension with a spoon.
"I told him he either asks you not to smoke or I will seriously question his position as the leader, as all leaders should be listened to and respected. And if he is not able to do so, then I shall take his place. So, you are not allowed to smoke John." John nodded, not even daring to look at you.
"Th-Thank you for the meal." John said.
"I know I can be a handful since I'm with child, I feel the change in myself, the doctor said it was hormones to blame, but I seriously hope you do not plan on talking our dear Johnny's ears off with my silliness, Dear Thomas. He doesn't have to know everything."
"Of course, Love. I apologize." Thomas grabbed your hand and placed a kiss on it.
John left soon after lunch and you were now washing the dishes as Tom was reading in the living room.
Once all dishes were done, you headed into the living room, a soft song playing as he was reading in his favourite armchair. He put the paper down when he saw you approach and you sat on his lap, your head on his chest as he continued to read with one hand as the other was now around you, comforting you.
"Am I really that annoying that you talk to John about it?"
"You are not annoying, Love. Odd, sometimes yes, but that isn't due to pregnancy." you giggled a little.
You were fine with 'odd'.
"I try to control it, you know?"
"Oh, God, is this the controlled version? I'm scared now for the uncontrolled one."
"It will get worse, I'm warning you because the doctor said last week that this will only grow as the baby does."
"It's alright, your body will change, I can take a few harsh words, I took bullets after all." he placed a kiss on your forehead.
"Do you want a girl or a boy?" you asked with a rather quiet voice.
"I don't really care, as long as both of you are safe and healthy."
"So you want a boy, got it." Tommy laughed you looked up at him, into his blue eyes. "I just want them to have your eyes."
"What if they don't?"
"Then we try until we have a child who does." you smiled at him as he looked at you.
"Just how many children my Missus want?"
"Oh, as many as my lovely husband would give me. We have a big house, it would be nice to have some life in it. Little you-s and I-s running around."
"I would like that. Honestly, I would like that very much. But let's see how you do after this one, then we will talk."
You hummed before you placed another kiss on his lips, letting him return to his paper as comfortable silence fell.

Some of my favorite easy and fast foods/snacks for $5 or less that aren't ramen and spaghetti:
Couscous. You can get boxed couscous for like $3 and it's enough for 2-3 side dishes at least and takes literally 5 minutes and no extra ingredients. You can get large containers of it for like $5 at Walmart too so you can season however you want. A nice grain that's easy to digest and pairs well with almost anything.
Popcorn. Everyone's favorite healthy junk food that can satisfy most cravings. You can usually get a box for like $4 or a jar of kernels for like $6.
Oats. Whole oats. Extremely versatile. Put them in smoothies, make cookies, granola, snack bars/balls, brownies, oatmeal, etc. Truly the best bland fiber and filler out there. You can even easily make your own oatmilk for super cheap by blending them with water and straining!
Frozen veggies. Last for months in the freezer and usually under $2 a bag. Not great if you prefer raw veggies, but if you are fond of sautéed or roasted ones, save some money and just get them frozen.
Chocolate chips. Cheaper than chocolate bars and you get a lot more chocolate. Perfect for those cravings!
Powdered potatoes. I know I know but if you ignore the package directions and put some butter and milk and seasonings in it, you can't tell. Ready in like 2 minutes and you get a shit ton of mashed potatoes for like $2.
Vegan Mac and cheese. I'm lactose intolerant and so I will forever be thankful for the vegan movement of the early 2010s for making nondairy products easier to find and more affordable. Vegan Mac and cheese literally tastes the exact same and bakes so well. Annie's so far has been my favorite brand and they have other pastas with sauces too like squash which is so good.
Crepes. You can make your own batter for cheap but who likes all them dishes? You can find pre-made crepes for like $3 for 10.
Apples. You can find 2lb bags of these for $3 at a lot of places. I never knew they were so cheap and I go through phases where I'll eat like 4 a day.
Lunch meat. Packs of turkey cost like $4. I use turkey on so much. Bagels, omelets, salads, sandwiches, wraps, croissants, etc.
Ready to bake pastries. I'm not a big bread person but croissants ready to bake have my whole heart and cinnamon rolls can really help make a bad day a little better.
Pretzels. I'm an absolute whore for Pretzels and eat so many of these things. They're so easy to pack for snacks for class or anything really. I can't go two weeks without them.
Rice crisps. Rice cakes are great but they're big and crumbly and get stale if you don't close the bag JUST right. But little Rice crisps??? Elite. They come in so many flavors and are super crunchy and they're just super cute too and they're bogo a lot at publix.
Frozen potstickers. You can get them for so cheap and I have a giant bag of them in my freezer right now that I got for like $7. I usually get smaller portions for $4 or so though but decided to splurge and get 3lbs of them cus why not.
Frozen shrimp. A bag of extra small Frozen shrimp is about $5 at Walmart. Eat them thawed and cold or put them in pastas or rice or Soups. They're a staple in my house.
These are just a few I could think of off the top of my head. Please add to the list!

My Random Ducktales Headcanons!!!
Tumblr media
this is another post where… no one asked for this. but my past Ducktales post did good so I give the people what they want
(I crave the validation of others)
I also sprinkled in goofy screenshots for a little bit of extra seasoning
Dewey like… ate rocks as a kid. just for fun
Huey told Dewey that Dodos ate rocks and Dewey internalized this, thus, Huey is responsible for Dewey eating rocks
Donald had a panic attack when he saw his nephew (that he is a legal guardian for) wolf down like… three rocks at one time for the plot
Tumblr media
Louie had a collection of various historical coins (they’re his special interest)
Donald regularly has nightmares about being attacked and killed by a bear (same bro)
Dewey taught Webby the words “rizz” “gyat” and “skibidi toilet” and it became everyone’s problem
this lead to Scrooge exclaiming that “he does not have any rizz” (this is a lie, he is rizz lord incarnate)
Tumblr media
Mrs. Beakley is a Pintrest Board Mom™️
she also can’t cook. she just has an assortment of Pinterest recipes that everyone despises but eats so she doesn’t feel bad
Storkules has beaten up Andrew Tate. Mixed martial arts? more like mixed Greek salad served by a hunky demigod.
Tumblr media
Storkules is also a feminist. that’s not a headcanon, tho, that’s a fact.
so is Launchpad. fight me on this.
Launchpad and Storkules are also besties. they’re both himbos with too much game.
Launchpad has illegally smuggled contraband into the country before. whether it was sniffle snacks or an exotic animal we’ll never know, but smuggling is on his transcript.
Tumblr media
LP unironically uses the pet name “pookie”. he don’t know what it means but he heard Dewey said and Dewey’s his best friend so that makes it cool
he also has a five step hair care routine
Scrooge regularly pays off several press stations to write wack stories about him because they make him chortle.
Scrooge also uses the term “square”… in daily conversation
one time he called Mágica a “square” and it personally offended her for life, ripped open several wounds, and destroyed her emotional well-being for the rest of her days
Tumblr media
Mrs. Beakley’s guilty pleasure is watching trash tv. Real Houseives? yes. Dance Moms? she quotes verbatim. The Bachelor? it’s her personality.
Mrs. Beakley watching these tv shows also got Della invested. now they throw a hissy fit if the other watches ahead of them
Webby cries over Bluey episodes on the daily.
Tumblr media
Webby also related immensely to Bingo Heeler— it has awoken feelings in her she preferred to keep hidden
this is less of a headcanon, more of a fact, but Huey, Dewey and Webby (and more Im not thinking about) are so Neurodivergent it’s not even debatable
Della is a gym rat. she just is.
thats all thanks

How to loose weight without loosing your mind?
Trigger warning: weight loss and mentions of ed
I’ve been thinking about making this post for a while. Then I thought „hey it’s good to share your knowledge with others, maybe this could help some people”. This post wont be related to tarot, spirituality or kpop.
Tarot is not the only thing I have some experience in. And I do think I’m the right person to talk about this. I went from around 74 to 60 kilos (my current weight although not my best shape) and I’m like to think of myself of a fit person. Nothing crazy. I’m not very toned but I know how to work out and eat to not go crazy.
And I’m speaking up because I’ve noticed over the years many misconceptions about loosing weight. I saw people promote ways that could lead to eating disorders and health issues.
Disclaimer: this post isn’t made to throw hate on people that use that methods. That’s not my point. I want to debunk some of the things I’ve read on tumbrl on heard on TikTok that make my blood boil. And I’ll share some of my tips that are way easier and sustainable.
Disclaimer #2: I’m not a dietitian, personal trainer or a doctor so obviously even I can say something ridiculous or scientifically inaccurate but I’ll try my best 🩷
Here’s the list of me ranting:
Red color - avoid doing that, this is a result of the “diet culture” and in the end will just hurt your body
Green color - better way to loose weight based on my experience
Drinking a glass of water before a meal. Specifically so you can eat less food. Some people may disagree but that’s a terrible habit that could change your brain’s biochemistry. You’re teaching your own mind it’s good to eat less. And this could seem small but in reality could become dangerous. Eating disorders are hard to get out of because firstly it’s a psychological problem and secondly sick people create dopamine whenever they don’t eat enough. They are literally high, just like a drug addict. That’s why they often need rehabilitation. And just like a drug addict you can go from drinking a glass of water to not eating for an entire day.
Restricting yourself from eating the foods you like, because they seem “healthy”. You’ll eat them anyway because you enjoy it and one day you will just break, eat more that usual, you’ll feel guilty and then you’ll stop eating. Then you’ll body will tell you to eat more, you will and the cycle repeats. There’s no such a thing as “healthy” or “unhealthy” food. We can divide them into carbohydrates, protein and fat. No food is bad, the amount of it is. Let’s say you’re like me and you love chocolate. I eat it everyday. Because it’s not bad. Eating sugar (carbs) isn’t bad, if you have one piece of candy. Having a whole bag of candy is bad, because you only eat carbohydrates. A healthy diet is a well balanced diet. If you eat apples everyday that’s unhealthy, because you give your body vitamins that only exist in apples. You have to eat an apple on Monday, on Tuesday eat a banana, and on Wednesday eat an orange. It’s not about the food, it’s about the balance of eating everything.
What helps you keep that balance is a 80/20 rule. Only 80% of meals should be well planned and high nutrient. 20% is that Oreo cookie that you want. It’s impossible to eat healthy meals all the time. This method makes you feel like you don’t restrict yourself too much to loose weight so it’s easier to stay motivated.
Cookie is not an apple. Never say you’ll eat an apple when you crave that cookie. It’s not going to satisfy you at all. You want a cookie so you go to eat it. If you want to eat fried chicken for dinner, are you going to be happy about getting a salad? Eat it but keep in you mind the rule above. If you eat that cookie the next snack you should have is that apple.
Changing your entire routine. This also makes things harder. Not impossible, I know people that quit smoking in one day. But changing your whole routine is a shock for your body. This includes your diet and exercising. If you’ll go to the gym and spend an hour running on a treadmill, then you’ll move to lifting weights for another hour, choosing more advanced and complicated exercises, you’ll start hating it. Not from the start, but slowly you’ll grow resentment because you’ll be too hard on yourself. This will feel like a punishment and it’s not supposed to be. Working out should be fun and eating well should be natural.
Small steps. Trust me. Running for an hour is bad for you if you’re not fit enough to do so. But trying to run for 10 minutes or walking more. You’re moving so that’s already something. And by doing things slow, step by step you’re building a habit which gives better long term results.
Loosing a lot of weight in a short amount of time. If you see an influencer saying they lost 30 kg in 3 months because of a miracle diet, ignore them. It’s impossible to do that unless you don’t eat anything at all. And this will ruin your body. Most of people that loose their weight like that gain it back after they start eating normally again. I could do a separate post about the consequences of loosing weight too quickly.
Cutting protein, carbs or fat from your diet. Your body is like a house of cards. The base of the pyramid consists of protein, carbs, fat, water and vitamins. Let’s say you’re not eating carbs at all. It’s like pulling one card out of the fundaments. The whole construction will fall aparat as well as your body if you do this. Unless your doctor recommends you a certain diet, don’t stop eating every type of food.
Comparing your results. We are all different and some people will loose their weight faster some will slower. Don’t compare your results with strangers. We all have different DNA. Focus on your own journey and experiment to find the ways that work best for you.
Also find a form of exercising that is best for you that you enjoy the most. You can do weight lifting, pilates, calisthenics, whatever you’d like. There’s so many of them. Don’t stick to one activity. And finding something that you like makes loosing weight way easier, because it won’t feel like a chore. It’ll turn into a hobby
Overworking your body. If you owned a Yorkshire terrier would you make it pull the sleight like a Husky even though you know they won’t make it? Or would you try to squeeze a German shepherd into a doghouse that was made for a chihuahua? Everybody would call it animal abuse so don’t do it to yourself and listen to your body. We all have limits and genetic predispositions 🤷🏼‍♀️🩷
These are only some of the things I came up with. I could write more if I tried but then I’d feel as if the post is way too long.
And I’m going to post it under the kpop tarot tag because I’m aware how idols look like. There could be someone that should read this 🩷🩷

Can you please write us a something something where Harry’s tour cater Sarah has arranged her team to make Harry’s wife her own plates of food? I can see their family and friends backstage at Wembley and her pregnant self is pigging out 😂
pleeeeeease. this is adorable.
we all know what harry is like when it comes to healthy-eating.
he's all about vegetables and fruit, healthy eating, salads over burgers and health-kicks, detoxes and all things like that. likes to keep himself in check with fruit smoothies and ginger shots, he'd opt to go good instead of having a treat. except, when his wife fell pregnant, all of that goes went out the window.
sympathy weight.
and yn thinks it's cute. so darn cute.
he has a little more cushion to his love handles, a little more weight in his belly and his cheeks have become a lot more full and round and you can't tell that he's packing the pounds on as the pregnancy progress but he can feel it and... he doesn't mind it. if his wife wanted something greasy, you bet he's buying himself one. if his wife wanted ice-cream, you bet he buys himself a whole carton so she doesn't need to share. if his wife wanted fried chicken or burgers, you bet he buys extra so they can pig out and not feel bad for the other.
so when she joins him on tour, he's making special requests to chef sarah to make yn whatever she wanted. and, of course, sarah could never say no when it comes to her favourite spouse of the tour - that's yn, by the way, much to harry's (fake) annoyance.
pre-show at wembley and you'd think she'd go for some of her home comforts that she misses during the weeks they spend away from london town but, nope. she takes a craving to the meals that sarah cooks; whether it be a plate of dirty fries or a burger or a hot-dog. where everyone has the allocated meal that sarah plans for them to have, yn gets an extra plate that's all for her (with the occasional plate given to whoever she favoured for the day - which, usually, always went to mitch because how could she say no to him?). sat on the sofa in harry's dressing room, watching as he drank from his water bottle, she's gorging on chips covered in ketchup, completely revelling in the get-up that her husband was so gorgeously dressed in.
"ready to come out for a walk or-?"
she shakes her head at his question and smiles cheekily, "i'm just finishing up. i'll meet you backstage before you go on."
"you sure? mum will be here in a minute. she can come and keep you company. think gemma's coming a bit later on."
'i'll be fine here for a bit. go for some fresh air, i'll see you in a second."
"have you got everything you need? all comfy? warm enough?"
she nods and he smiles, walking towards her and pressing a kiss to her forehead. the smell of ketchup feeling a little overwhelming but he took a breath and looked down, catching her eye.
"i love you."
he gives her baby bump a rub and grins wide when he feels his little one kick at the palm of his hand.
"i love you too, little one." x

could i get your take on what the companions (or just my favorite boy X6's) top 10 fave candies/foods would be in a modern AU?
anon you are in luck, because I am constantly thinking about the diets and eating habits of my blorbos
The numbered list isn't in any particular order, it's just so I don't have to manually count each point
so
What the companions would eat if not in a post apocalypse
Cait; Wouldn't have a taste for fancier cuisine. Eats more...hick-ish. I can say that because I was a hick with this kind of diet, growing up. Has a taste for filling, cheap, low-effort food...think lots of fast food, but "healthier" fast food. Like Chipotle, Panera, etc. Can cook, doesn't often, but will if she has a craving. Savory or tart tastes. She tends to eat lighter than you'd expect.
Blueberry brownie anything, favors dark chocolate in general
Submarine sandwiches, anything with pickles
Key lime pie
Salt and vinegar chips and thinks critics of such chips are cowards
Peach Redbull, any energy drinks though
Storebought hummus and Doritos, has been seen eating hummus with just a spoon though
Blueberry bread pudding. Simple to make, fun to eat, very comforting. Buys her bread already stale from a local bakery, has a guy to hook her up with the old shit
Seafood chowder
Sausages in any capacity. Jerky sticks, breakfast sausage, etc. Loves chorizo.
Honey buns from the gas station
Curie; Health nut, she eats like every influencer claims they eat like. Only, Curie actually eats like that. Lots of fresh foods and whole grains, little red meat. However, Curie makes a point to have foods that other health nuts would condemn, thinks its really important to not label any food as "bad." So, she balances between health nut and normal person. Her taste leans toward bright and/or sweet. Dislikes red meat.
Salmon breakfast wraps
Tropical fruit smoothies, eats so much pineapple
Iced tea, favors raspberry. Never seen without an iced tea of some kind
Halibut tacos, likes red cabbage and a fuck ton of lemon on it. Soft shells all the way
Bananas foster
Whipped brie dip, eats it with anything but loves it on apples, basically dessert
Lemon pepper grilled chicken and rice
So many salads, loves that you can just throw shit in a bowl and call it a recipe. Likes strawberries and almonds
Lemon poppyseed muffins
Shrimp and bitter melon stir fry
Danse; mixed bag. One on hand, small town diner tastes. Simple, cheap, good ol' American food. On the other, he's doomed to be a soldier in every universe he's in, so...maybe he picks up some tastes and dishes from places he's toured. Gets a weird pallate that shoots in all directions and makes you wonder what it's like in that thick skull. One day he's a good American boy with pancakes and steak, the next he's eating cake mix dry and drinking tahini from a flask.
Anything BBQ, but a pulled pork devotee
Hot coffee so heavily creamed and sugars it looks like milk. He likes the twix combo of chocolate, shortbread, and caramel flavors
Prepackaged baked goods a la Hostess, fucks up little Debbie oatmeal cookies
Apple and pecan pie
Menemen—Turkish dish, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, bell peppers, spices to taste, and (controversially) onions. Adds sausage and cheese, eats it with a fork or spoon (its meant to be eaten with bread)
Khachapuri—Georgian cheesy bread with egg. Eats with a knife and fork. (its meant to be eaten with the bread crust)
Smores pop tarts
Beef and potato stew
Rice bowl with fried egg and avocado, bonus points if it has bacon
Straight cookie dough/brownie/cake batter, usually when he's black out drunk and cannot shame himself out of eating raw egg products.
Deacon; Very childhood comfort food. Y'know, things you had as a kid, but probably grew out of a bit? Eats out of gas stations/takeout frequently. Very open flavor pallete, has tried everything he's had the chance to. Likes one-handed food, stuff you can have the other hand free for. Doesn’t really have a 'theme', has broad horizons for his diet. Likes lighter, mild flavors, though. He eats lightly and on the go a lot.
Hot/corn dogs, taste in hot dog toppings varies
Egg salad sandwiches
French fries and vanilla ice cream, classic combo
Mango sticky rice
Cornbread with any accompaniments. Likes honey or chili, thinks if you have a drink with cornbread, you ain't a real cornhead
Penne alla vodka
Cucumber salad. This could mean a salad with cucumbers, that trending Asian recipe where you cut the cumber so its springy, or eating a cucumber like a hotdog.
Fried mushrooms
Usually just drinks water but will have gator/powerade when he's working. Likes purple flavor
Captain crunch cereal, loves all cereal though. Prefers the kibble stuff to the berries. Starts philosophical debates about the morality of Trix commercials vs Lucky Charms commercials
Gage; His favorite foods reflect his upbringing. Coastal swamp cuisine, cheap and made in bulk. Take Danse's pallate and hyperlocalize it, and then lower the budget by a good amount. Things he grew up eating. Would gradually replace his favorites with pricier, 'less embarrassing' dishes, distances himself from his origins. However, takes care to not looked too loaded. Smokey and savory flavors are his thing, likes more spice than people expect.
Doberge cake, which is layered with pudding, often half-chocolate and half-lemon
Red beans and rice, with stewed pork if they could afford it
Blackened fish of any kind, liked it with cilantro-lime rice
Steak with potatoes and/or eggs
Chronic iced tea drinker like Curie, though he prefers the bitter kinds
Scallops
Brussels sprouts defender and will fight for their honor
Peaches
Was introduced to curry during a business meeting/outing. Could drink that shit from a glass, has it with potatoes and porkchops.
Lobster anything. This is one of those 'less embarresing' things, but he genuinely enjoys a good lobster roll. Even if he prefers a freshly-caught lobster bisque. Again, something he had growing up, something he pushes away.
Hancock; Similar to Deacon, but favors fatty, greasy food. No, it's not the drugs, that's just his metabolism. He's a skinny twink, always starving, can never put on weight. Eats as much as Danse, who is a big guy and needs more calories than most. He's really into street food and foreign dishes, won't eat at a restaurant if they speak fluent English or have good customer service. IYKYK. Very comfort food heavy, lots of "this would slap with Netflix at 2 am"
A classic oxtail, mac and cheese, and collard green take out combo
Any and all American-chinese take out, usually gets eggplant tofu with chow mein and cream cheese rangoons
"Walking tacos", those things where you open a small bag of chips and dump White People taco makings in. Probably just tips the whole thing into his mouth
Yakitori, Japanese chicken skewers, popular bar food
Bloody Mary cocktails
Pizza, will fight for the honor of pineapple. Would really be into how Brazil does pizza
Frozen yogurt and ice cream, piles with toppings
Breakfast sandwiches or wraps. Egg, meat, cheese, doesn't matter the time nor specifics.
Jam donuts, loves cherry fillings
Puppy chow/muddy buddies, chex cereal covered in chocolate and powdered sugar. Eats his weight in them if not careful
MacCready; forces himself to learn how to cook for Duncan's sake, but for himself...good God. It's horrible. Eats like garbage. Would never drink water if not to set an example. Take out, frozen food, so much candy and soda. After Duncan, broadens his horizons. Finds he really likes soups. Just throw shit in a pot and it works. Eats on a budget, so that's a life-saver. Doesn't have a preferred flavor pallete, aside from his love of candy.
Meat lover's pizza. Thinks pineapple has no place on pizza
Used to drink Mountain Dew and diet coke, replaced it with iced teas and more organic fruit juices for the sake of his teeth
Chicken soup, either from a can, or homemade. Either way, slaps. If homemade, blends veggies for a hidden veggie stock. For him, Duncan is a lot better at eating veggies, MacCready needs to trick himself.
Sour rainbow ropes
Cookie crisp cereal, thinks whoever came up with it deserved the sloppiest head. Incredible design, no notes
Cheese and sour cream chips
Famous Amos cookies
Eggo waffles
Gnocchi is God to him. Its superior to all noodles and makes your Shit In The Fridge soup 1000 times better.
Rice pudding is cheap, easy, and a surprisingly efficient sweet-tooth satisfier. Makes it with pumpkin spice mix or chocolate.
Nick; Home-cooked meals all the way. Could kill himself with cheese and die happy. Lots of easy meals and snacking so he can keep working, but will treat himself to a nice, hard-earned dinner when he has the time and energy. Likes himself the smokey, the fresh, or the sour. Probably knows all the best sub shops in the city, probably in a turf war with regulars of rival shops. Jewish delicatessens are like church to him.
Lasanga. Most of his freezer space is lasagna. Eats so much of it. He's lactose intolerant. It hurts but it hurts so good
Latkes. Fried potato things, kind of like hashbrowns, except the potato is mashed/ground instead of grated. And yes. Also pastrami. But those little potato bitches...mmmph.
Red velvet muffins with cream cheese frosting.
Fried cheese in any capacity
A prosciutto, arugula, brie, and fig sandwich
Pickled pearl onions
Cobb salad
Black coffee. Temp doesn't matter, because he's going to forget it until its room temp.
Has been known to enter fugue states and consume an absurd amount of Chicago style hot dogs
Scones or just plain bread with butter and jams
Piper; Broke college student trying to make it as a reporter. Her tastebuds are fucked, they salivate not for flavor, or texture, but for those good, good low prices. Piper's diet is almost entirely snackfood or takeout. If she ever cooks, it's for Nat. But when taking care of just herself, Piper eats from a box or bag. When she does cook, it's very simple meals. Loves her carbs and her fruit flavors
Chicken Ramen with canned chicken and frozen broccoli chucked in. Also makes this for Nat
Hot cheetos, eats with chopsticks
Spaghetti and meatballs
Fruit smoothies/smoothie bowls, blends in veggies as well for the nutrition
Coka cola and anything from Fanta, loves fruit sodas
Anything carbs and I mean that. Eats a lot of bread, pasta, cakes, potatoes...they're the sweetheart of anyone on a budget.
Buffalo cauliflower, likes it more than Buffalo chicken
Chewing gum. Fruit flavors only, hates mint gum. Likes mint elsewhere, just not in gum.
Nickle-nips and other "jelly/juice in a wax package" candies. Likes the charm of it, also, free chewing wax
Suckers/lollipops, big on hard candy in general but the stick satisfies her smoking habit.
Preston; A mix of easy depression/bulk meals and dishes from his childhood. Lots of spices, cooks with a lot of straight peppers. Tends to eat his food 'raw', not made into a dish. Again, easy and quick to eat. Also tends to buy pre-prepared stuff for the same reason, buys more fruits and veggies and just eats them straight. Doesn't care about eating healthy, he just lacks energy to cook most days.
I have no choice to explain this as it has no name. Casserole dish, layer of mashed potatoes, layer of shredded or chunked chicken, layer of white breakfast gravy or brown poultry gravy, top with drop biscuits. It's buttery, its savory, it is white as snow. Easy, cheap, one ladlefull is dinner. You'll get a few meals out of it, and it's so filling you have like, five minutes before you're stuffed. I call it gut-glue.
Dirty rice
Eggs scrambled with spinach
Jollof/jambalaya
Veggies and hummus or ranch
Various fruits and berries such as grapes, cherries, blackberries, and oranges
Shakshouka, eggs poached in spicy tomato sauce and eaten with bread
Chicken biscuits, crackers dusted with, like, chicken bouillon? They taste like a chicken Ramen packet sneezed on a ritz
Slurpees/Icees/those syruped gas station ice drinks
Straight peppers, eats bell peppers like apples. Eats pickled jalapeños and scotch bonnets to feel something. Drinks the liquid in pickle jars instead of alcohol, or mixes it with gelatin and makes pickle jello.
X6-88; Pretensious rich asshole who eats like it. He rarely cooks for himself, probably has a personal chef or something. Maybe his work has their own restaurants, like Google. Eats mostly vegetables, but his favorite foods skew from "Dubai Influencer" to "12 year old who earned too much lawn mowing money and was let loose in a convenience store." So much sugar. Willy Wonka's factory is his idea of heaven and until it exists, he's an atheist.
Raw meats. Steak and tuna tartar, sashimi, and sushi
Braised duck with cherries
Nduja, a spicy pork sausage spread, has it with flatbreads
Oysters. Eats them all fancy in public, eats them from a tin with doritos at home
Anything from Hostess, Little Debbie, those brands. Fucking anything. However, would kill a man for any kind of Swiss roll
Chocolate milk
Gummies, very picky with brands, hates the harder kinds like Haribo. Wants his gummies soft as a marshmellow
Cadbury eggs
Milano dark chocolate cookies
Gushers

Snippet - Forward, but Never Forget/XOXO - "I'm arriving, I'm arriving!"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Silco keeps finding himself caught in stupid love-triangles...
Forward, but Never Forget/XOXO
Snippet:
The same unnamable feeling crept through Silco's gut. He locked it down; his voice held an offhand coolness. "Yours?"
"She says so."
"You believe her?"
Vander shrugged.
Silco fought his kneejerk instinct to probe. He and Vander, whatever intimacy they'd shared in their salad days, was done. They never spoke of it. Never even alluded to it. Sometimes it felt almost unreal to Silco, like something that had happened in a dream. Other times, he felt the unspoken truth kept him and Vander closer rather than apart. To share secrets was one way to share a body, wasn't it?
Except—again—came the wedge.
Lika.
Silco wished he could be a better man. Lika wasn't the bad sort. Though still pitifully skinny from the diet of gruel in the Lanes, she'd matured into a vivacious beauty, naturally witty, with an inventor's mind. She worked as a gadgeteer in Benzo's shop, and like any girl who'd come from a long line of wanderers and wastrels, she had a talent for making mischief.
But she also made good. When Rolak stole a shipment of copper ingots from Benzo's store, Lika set up booby traps along the route to the harbor. The poor bastard didn't make it past the third trap. Afterward, Benzo hailed Lika as his rescuer. Silco got the distinct impression he would've dropped to his knees and proposed to her then and there.
Lika had her eye elsewhere.
For all her good nature, she was an opportunist to her core. She liked having men—big, tough men—on her string. It was, as Silco would confirm later in his own life, Like money in the bank.
And Lika always wanted more.
Vander was top dog in the Lanes. Nobody could match him for sheer strength. With Silco's return, they were attracting attention from all corners. Notoriety had its flipside: adoration. Their smuggling operation raked in coins. And Silco's gift as a fixer gave them access to a network of contacts across the city.
None of this had failed to rekindle Lika's love-light. Vander was her best chance at getting what she truly craved: the good life.
And Vander?
He'd fallen for Lika all over again—and Silco hated it. Hated the mysterious power inherent in Lika's swaying hips, the lilt in her laugh and the swing of her hair. Hated the way it reduced Vander into a whipped-dog passivity. All she wanted from Vander was sex and profit. Yet the latter anchored into an affection that sunk deeper into Vander's heart, while the former had him showering Lika with gifts at every turn: necklaces, tools, trinkets.
She had a ridiculously childish thing for stuffies. Vander was so cunt-struck he’d started a collection for her, one for each letter of the alphabet. He'd just gotten to L when Silco had returned to the Lanes.
Love.
It's a funny thing, isn't it?
Funny like a brain tumor.
Flatly, Silco said, "Stick around too long, they start playing games. I always warn you."
"So you do."
"I also warn you to pay the Protection Racket."
An Undercity saying. It meant: Use a sheath.
Vander tsked. "All the Piltie cunny's spoiled you, Blut."
"I barely got any," Silco retorted. "And what I got wasn't worth the trouble."
Vander chortled, with overtones of Sure, pull the other one.
"It's true. Like screwing a mannequin. They don't move right on the dance floor. They barely move at all on a mattress."
"An' when they come, they announce—"
"I'm arriving, I'm arriving!" Silco said in shrill falsetto, beating Vander to the finish line.
They traded the old handshake of laughter. The burden receded from Vander's shoulders. Silco took the other man's emotional temperature, and dared, "Give me a sweetheart from the Lanes any day."
Vander grinned, a good-natured reflex. "Any day."
Their stares met. The moment prolonged itself into tantalizing possibility…
Hastily, Vander broke eye contact.

Just (Werewolf!) Papa Solomons Things:
Rainy days with your little dove
TH Masterlist
Tumblr media
- Spent indoors with reading and drinking tea and/or coffee.
- He smells like the rain, mixed with the sweat of the transformation.
- Grumbles about the weather being rotten on the way home. “‘S bad for me sciatica.”
- Tries to stay awake on the tube and train. On the former he’s glad to have found a seat, too tired to keep himself standing. On the train, he’s glad he has your shoulder to rest his head on (and subsequently use as a pillow for a nap that’s totally not a nap).
- On days like this he wants to do everything together. The usual shower while you make breakfast gets swapped for a two-person bath, a little moment to enjoy together while enjoying a light snack like a fruit salad.
- Alfie loves it when you towel his hair. It’ll immediately cause him to purr.
- After he’s made sure you’re nice and dry as well as dressed in one of his hoodies, he’ll tag along to the kitchen.
- Now, no matter if he’s still worn and haggard from a night lost to the beast inside, he insists on making you breakfast. Although you know protesting is of no use, you have one extremely effective weapon to use against him.
- Wolfy.
- The silly nickname you gave him when he confessed to being a werewolf. You meant it as a very bad joke, but knew he was serious when he didn’t return your smile.
- Now throw in some beard scratches and you, my dear, have the Alpha of the Camden pack on his knees.
- Hey, whatever works to get him to sit down on the chaise longue by the window in the living room, which provides a marvellous view of the sea. He needs rest and relaxation, not his usual incessant worrying about you.
- And he worries a lot.
- Though Alfie might not show it, he’s mortified of the consequences which come with the very real potential the Wolf can be unleashed if he doesn’t watch his temper.
- If he loses himself for a split second in your vicinity, he could potentially kill you. Because even though he’s aware the Wolf is in love with you too, there’s nothing to protect you once instinct kicks in and it’s either kill or be killed.
- And if he comes to his senses and your mauled body is the first thing he sees, well…
- Let’s say Camden will lose its King and Highgate will have a royal tomb.
- So he has to make sure he’s safe for you.
- Some of his rings and bracelets have been swapped out for ones that contain silver to supplement his medication.
- Alfie has asked his doctor to up the dosage of the drugs he takes to suppress the Wolf and slow its influence over his mind and body. The same goes for the suppressants.
- Lycanthropy is a terminal condition. Not in the traditional sense of a literal death, but rather the death of the Human Self. This phenomenon is known as ‘going feral’.
- It’s extremely rare for Ferals to regain their Human Self, though such cases have been reported and are a hot research topic in the academic community.
- Alfie is such a case.
- Fell in love the moment he saw you admiring the Aira Force. No, he did more than that.
- He imprinted in you.
- After thirty-four years of silently pondering the question why everyone seemed to find their mate with ease and he didn’t, he found the answer.
- He simply needed to wait because his little dove wasn’t born yet.
- (I’m sorry, but I kinda have this canon of Alfie having a partner younger than him. Let’s say at least half his age. Look, he’s Papa Solomons for a reason, eh?)
- Despite knowing how detrimental it is to his Human Self, Alfie likes to shift and doze off after brekkie. After all, he’s spent the majority of his life as a Wolf and therefore is more comfortable in his other form.
- If it’s winter, you can frequently find him curled up by the fireplace.
- But today the weather is rotten and the craving for your company insatiable. Henceforth, after an elaborate breakfast enjoyed in comfortable silence, you two crawl into bed.
- Alfie loves reading, but he can’t seem to keep his eyes open. From the corner of your eye, you notice him starting to nod off yet fiercely fight the fatigue.
- Nevertheless, soon after, a soft sonorous snoring mingles with the tapping of the rain against the window. You put your own book to the side to gently pluck his (The Language of Food by Annabel Abbs) out of his big wolf paws and lift his glasses off of his nose to put them on his bedside table.
- Regardless of his unconscious state, Alfie pulls you flush against him after you’ve manoeuvred him into a more comfortable position. Legs entwined, one hand cradling the back of your head, and his back towards the door, he holds you.
- Because he’s your Wolfy.
- Your protector.
- The Queen’s wolf.

Pairing: bunny hybrid!Jaemin x human fem!reader
Genre: fluff
Warnings: none
Word Count: 539
Note: here’s the other Father’s Day fic I planned!! Please enjoy!!
Hybridverse Masterlist || Bunny!Jaemin Masterlist
Tumblr media
You and Jaemin have been married for two almost three years now. At first, Jaemin had been dead set on having your first kid within a year of marriage. That didn’t happen though, after you were told about Jeno and his girlfriend having Haneul Jaemin went into a bad headspace. He wanted nothing more than to be a dad, he had told you on many occasions how much he’d love to have a few kids with you, even before you got married. Recently though something has drastically changed, Jaemin has no idea yet. Though thinking about it, he may know already. He’s been slightly more clinger than usual too. Sure, he’s already clingy as it is, within reason of course, but as of a few weeks ago he’s been almost attached to your hip again.
You’re currently standing in the kitchen fixing something for the two of you to have lunch. You decided that today you would finally tell him what’s going on. It was hard to hide at this point, especially with how much you’ve been craving vegetables recently. You knew you were having a hybrid baby, you normally enjoy your fruits and vegetables but recently it’s tenfold. You’ve been craving them way more than you ever knew you could. You were over the moon ready to tell him, you had already told Jeno’s girlfriend, mostly because she could tell something was different. A mother’s instincts, she told you.
“Good morning pretty woman.” you hear Jaemin say with his gravelly morning voice, wrapping his arms around you in a back hug while speaking.
“Good morning bunnyboy.” you giggle back, “Feeling clinger today?”
“You just smell so good right now, did you change your shampoo or something? You smell so much more like me.” he comments.
You giggle slightly and turn around in his embrace. Placing a kiss on his cheek you start playing with the ends of his soft grey ears. You think he might have started to catch onto what’s happening. That is until he starts trying to scent you again, knowing that it hardly ever works, especially with you being human.
“Jaemin,” you softly speak, “I need to tell you something.”
“What’s up?”
“I’ve been craving salads a lot recently, and carrots.” “Yeah?” he responds, not fully realizing what you’re implying.
“Yeah, and I missed my period.”
“Baby?” he asks, pulling away slightly, “Are you?”
You nod at him, “I am.”
He starts zooming through your apartment beyond happy with what you had just told him. You could never get tired of seeing him run around full of joy. Suddenly he stops dead in front of you again, his eyes blown wide with excitement. He starts sniffing you again just to confirm whatever’s going through his brain.
“Wait, you smell like me, you’re craving bunny foods. You’re having a baby bun?!” “Yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s a bunny.” you giggle, a wide smile still across your face.
He picks you up and spins you around in circles right there in the kitchen, “We’re finally having a baby.”
“Our own baby bunny.” you smile with tears in your eyes.
“I’ve been waiting for this moment for so long, and it’s finally here.” he responds with teary eyes.

@heroes-villains-side-blog
I'm so sorry it took a while to finish this, but here is your request! Hope you like it friend ^^✨
Suggestive Themes
╔══ ≪ °❈° ≫ ══╗
"So..." Hero trailed off, crossing their legs and swirling their red wine in their lap with their free hand.
It has been 4 minutes ago since dinner. Both of them talked about random topics and such, laughed and banter until they ran out of topics to talk about. Hero didn't want to come off as rude so they stayed for a bit longer.
The two of them are in villain's living room, the only source of light is the fireplace, and the crackling from the blaze filled the silent room. 
Hero felt their stomach churn, they started to feel sweat on their palm and the fire is not helping it at all. They looked around the villain's so called, 'lair' to avoid the other's intense eye contact.
The place is mildly nice; Marble floors reflecting them. The window far behind them were showing off the bright city lights below the penthouse, and hero could not tell anything else because of the dim lights.
"Nice place you have here." Hero said nervously, clearing their throat.
"Yeah, I mean uh- Yes, indeed." Villain stammered.
Villain had planned this a day ago. Hero would come to their penthouse, check. Have dinner with them, check. Learn more about them? Check. Drink wine while literally act awkward afterwards? Yes and No.
"Sooo.." Hero spoke after a minute of silence, scratching their neck. The silence is too painful for them it hurt.
The villain just sat there, arms resting on the couch beside Hero, smirking devilishly while looking at them with their eyes sparkling with mirth. "So?" They replied, sipping their wine glass while crossing their legs.
"Why... did you invite me here?" The hero asked, staring blankly at the villain's eyes.
"Mhm." Villain hummed, arching their back and gulping their wine. 'Finally.' They thought, regaining their confidence back in one sip of the wine. Villain didn't know why the hero asked that about now but they guessed it's just to relieve the thick tension.
"Mhm...?" Hero muttered as they watched their friend finish the glass in one gulp.
"I've been having certain.. 𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 lately," Villain said, voice dropping in a low tone. Their eyes half lidded and glimmering with hunger, trying to get the message from the snail.
"Cravings?" Hero mumbled, placing their hands under their chin.
Villain tilted their head, swirling their now empty glass between their fingers, admiring how the blaze from the hearth illuminated the hero's face perfectly.
"Cravings, cravings... Oh." The hero innocently repeated, having no idea what they meant.
Villain grinned, chortling. "Indee-"
"Cravings..? Like fish? Chips? Salad?" Hero interrupted, tilting their head lightly, eyebrows raised. 
...
...
...
...
...
Silence resurfacing yet again, save from the noise of the fireplace. Both are staring at each other, with the villain's lips slightly parted and their brows raised. While Hero is.. oblivious to say the least. 
"Uhm.. Did I say something bad..?" Hero asked, trying so hard to carefully analyze what they're trying to say.
Villain pursed their lips, their breath catching up to their throat. They currently want to do nothing but cry in the corner and scream out of embarrassment.
They sighed heavily, shaking their head in disapproval. "Hero, hero, hero." They massaged the bridge of their nose. "It's not food I've been craving. It's you." Villain didn't hesitate to say it directly—out loud. Their cheeks tinted with red as the words came out, smirking devilishly as they did so.
"Me? What about me—oh." Hero gasped, covering their mouth. Now, they both have the same bright crimson cheek. What was that sudden confession? they thought. "Are you drunk or..." 
"No." Villain answered honestly, putting their glass down to face the now blushing hero.
"Uh-" Hero couldn't even finish the sentence when Villain's hand went to their cheek, and the other on their hips, turning their face red as a tomato.
Villain pressed their body close to hero's, thumb caressing the other's jaw, slowly making their way on their exposed neck.
"Villain.." Hero whispered out, feeling lightheaded, they didn't know if it was the wine or villain making their body weak, but it is definitely villain.
Villain groaned in response, they couldn't think straight at this point. They leaned their foreheads together, noses tickling as they stared deeply into each other's eyes.
Both hero and villain's heartbeat felt erratic, bodies pressed against each others, pupils dilated and waiting for each other to make the first move. Their lips are inches apart.
"Can I..?" Villain asked, brushing their thumb over hero's soft bottom lip gently.
"I.. uhm.. uh.." Hero stuttered, gulping nervously. They tried to think an answer for something, a response, but they couldn't utter a single word not when their friend or nemesis's body is literally pressed on to them.
Just as hero closed an inch on villain's lips, they pulled away. "I'm sorry." They said, pushing villain's shoulders away from them before standing up from the couch.
"It's already late, I need to go back home. See ya." Hero mumbled, picking up their belongings.
"Wait-"
"Bye, see you soon." Hero interrupted, rushing towards the front door, leaving the villain behind.
And when the door slammed shut, Villain kept their eyes on the front doorway, hands flat on the couch while looking everywhere at shock. The room felt suddenly cold as the blaze from the hearth began to dissipate.
They walked slowly towards the kitchen, putting down the empty wine glasses down the sink. "Oh god." They mumbled, leaning over the sink with their head hung low, thinking over what a mess they just made.

this is not necessarily a happy journal entry but
i’ve had a lot of happy moments lately. and relief. also chaos but that’s nothing unusual, the happiness is. noticed something that made me upset just now. also opened bumble god knows why. i know fully well i don’t want to date, and yet, i opened bumble. it’s not like i have time to kill. in fact, i have no time. there’s so much stuff i’m meant to be doing. i just added a whole bunch of stuff to my master to do list. here comes the hyperventilation. i prayed the other day. i felt so bad that i prayed. can yall imagine how much anxiety it takes to get to a point where i genuinely broke down enough to beg god for help? but it means something. it means i have hope. it means i want things to get better. it means i feel it’s worth it. this is a start contrast to my indifference and disinterest in living last year. things are different now. i am different. nothing changes. everything changes. it feels like a cycle but also there’s something new about it. everytime i regain my will to life. you can’t force these things. it has a mind of its own. also going back to bumble, it’s such a waste of time for me and also it makes me feel a few things: 1) like dating is so strange, i don’t have it in me to do the whole ritual, it’s not organic, it feels forced, and superficial, it’s not for me, not for who i am right now. 2) it makes me think about aspects of myself that i have struggled a lot to make peace with, such as my appearance, my personality etc through the lens of others, like why would i ever subject myself to such torment, when i know i hate being perceived 3) i am too impatient and disinterested to send the first message or to wait for a response and then to carry on a conversation. there’s more points but ill just keep rambling for eternity. why am i even saying all this, why am i thinking so much about it, clearly this has struck something in me, since i feel so strongly about it and am desperately trying to make sense of it. the thing is. i like who i am. i like how things are going. that is not something i can say like ever. but can now. and i’m doing fine. and i do have the time. to be silly. to waste some. i don’t actually have to do the things, i just want to do them. and a break is never long enough to do everything i ever wanted to do. instead i’ll focus on the progress i’ve made, which is anything but little. i should be and i am extremely proud of myself. oh funny thing happened the other day, i accidentally splashed boiling water onto my face and chest when trying to break a bone in my stockpot. and i gave myself a pretty nasty burn that covers more than half my face. the left side. my left. your right. the side with the mole. anyway, so i dealt with it, i’ve been told to avoid exposing my face to the sun or heat in general. so ive been eating a lot of cold foods. and coincidentally watching that episode on gilmore girls where the dragonfly inn catches fire, and sookie can’t use the stoves until the insurance company pays for the contractor to fix them and she lists cold foods, all types of salads and carpaccios. i don’t eat raw meat/fish and i’m over my salad craze. i’m craving a hot roast chicken sandwich with cold tomatoes and zesty mayo on toasted brioche buns. the way i make it. i’m rlly hungry. and there is this lingering melancholy that just grows if i don’t address it every now and then.
for someone who is absolutely terrible at writing, i sure do write a lot. and this is technically writing. right?
even though things are better, i’m not yet okay. my mind still spins too fast. nothing sticks. i’m in distress because my friends are distress. how can we actually be happy if the ones we love are not. so many people so many attachments. it’s been a while since i’ve even had the mental capacity to care for others. i’m hungry as fuck. something is off, something feels bad. is it my hunger. is it my messed up sleep schedule. is it my perpetually cluttered room. is it the pressure of expectations. is it my godawful health, mental or physical. is it eternal.
i can’t fix everything. i can’t fix anything really. i can’t fix things at a rate fast enough to keep up with the pace of destruction. in this life there is too much to fight against. but also too much to fight for. at least i can take solace in the fact that it ends. which is not so much a fact to me as it is a hope. god forbid the heavens exist. i couldn’t take another minute of being, after i have been so relentlessly my whole life. i’m hungry. i’m scared. i’m hopeful. i’m apprehensive. always anticipating danger but never quite ready for it. nothing is ever right enough. except when i find a bit of poetry that changes the fabric of my being. maybe i just need to be receptive in case some poetry finds its way to little old me.

18.03.24 - Yesterday's practice was a hamstring/hip flow that worked towards sugarcane. I found it more difficult to balance than I'd anticipated, but it felt so good to stretch my hips out like that! I did do the other side, but I wasn't fully in the frame and decided not to redo it just for the sake of a tumblr post 😅
Today was a focus on inversions, including headstand and forearm stand. Years of contortion training has me pretty comfortable in forearm stands, although my backbend isn't what it used to be. I'm happy with that split though! The picture's blurry because I had to zoom out my camera to fit all of me in lol I'm not deliberately blurring my face out!
In addition to yoga I've been working on ballet a lot more, trying to do the lesson 3 combinations from this absolute beginners' series a couple of times a week. I like to repeat each one several times before I go on to the next just to get the technique down. Lesson 3 introduced arms, so I want to repeat it a few more times before I go on to lesson 4.
As for my diet... it's been up and down. My coke zero addiction is as bad as even, maybe even worse 😅 But I've been eating a fair amount of chicken salad lately. The past couple of days were a bit wobbly and I've been having a lot of fried chicken cravings, which I ultimately gave into. Whoops. Tomorrow I'm going to make honey & sesame pork noodles for my lunches and hopefully that'll keep me full and fuelled!

things that have helped me lose 4kg in 2 weeks<3
every day im seeing the scale drop slightly, and changes in my body by doing these things. im no good with discipline or motivation so i try to keep it simple!
no food until 1-3pm (depends on if im at work or not) i also dont eat past 10pm (usually earlier) so im fasting for 15-17+ hours a day, without even really thinking about it because i keep myself busy during the day
3L of water a day! can not stress this enough. the only other drinks im allowed are black americano or espresso, herbal tea, or diet coke as a treat a few times a week (it makes me bloated so i try to avoid)
eat sauerkraut every day, with my first meal. this can apply to any fermented dish, but sauerkraut is my favourite. it is full of probiotics that can help with digestion and is yummy for 15cals/100g
on work days i omad (300-400cals) and a small snack of whatever im craving if i am still hungry (100-200cals). when i am home i eat lunch and dinner, (200cals each) and a small snack of whatever i am craving (100-200cals). i do not count properly, i like to overestimate everything so even if i reach my limit of 800cals i am often closer to 600
i don't properly work out, but i do 25 squats whenever i go to the bathroom, 200 arm circles in the shower and 100 sit ups any time im alone. this is easy to stick to for me because im terrible with consistency
i try to walk a lot. i have terrible joints but i aim to go on a walk every day, normally between 8k-12k steps
stay out of the kitchen. when im not around food im not thinking about food.
steamed/boiled veg with every meal. i like my meals to be mostly warm, and low cal veg like bok choi, spinach, daikon radish etc. are my favs, also high in fibre makes it more filling
liquid fast 24hrs 1-3 days a week
don't over complicate your meals. i eat a variation of the same meal basically every day, giving yourself too many options can be overwhelming and lead to a binge. i will have an egg with sauerkraut and steamed veg for breakfast, and for dinner i have an egg or tofu, with some kind of steamed veg or salad, and 1/3 boiled sweet potato (if im really hungry) for dinner. this also saves me a lot of money as a little bonus.
i do the same with my snack options. i will have berries, with or without 0% fat greek yogurt. some kind of veg like bell pepper or cucumber, with cream cheese. a small portion of chocolate if i want something sweet. that's about it.
chew your food properly, and eat slowly. im talking 45-60mins to eat a single meal. helps with digestion
if you feel like giving up give yourself a number of days to stick to your plan, and maybe set a realistic goal within that time, such as losing 2-4kg in 15 days. tell yourself that after this time, you are free to give up and binge or whatever, but you must stick to the plan 100%. by the time it is over, you will be satisfied with the results and want to continue.
most importantly, just dont give up. you will have good days and bad days but overall if you continue you will make progress. i have slipped up and binged 1500~ calories twice, and am still seeing progress. the bad days do not define your journey and you will reach your goals if you do your best

My Binge Prep Bag
So with how little I eat a day, I feel like a Binge episode is bound to happen. Maybe not now, Maybe not soon, Maybe not for you, but for ME I feel like it will come at some point. So I'd rather be prepared and binge on foods I feel safe and comfortable with. Foods that I have already come to terms with that if I eat in abundance, in a moment of weakness, that it will be okay. I will be okay. Rather than binging on who knows what and not even knowing about how much calories I had.
If I binge on god knows what, I will feel disgusted, I will feel ashamed, I will feel sad, I will feel disappointed, I will feel large and then I'll probably cry.
VS
This bag I have already accepted it. I will still probably feel sad and disappointed, maybe even shame, but I will take solace that I know what I am eating. That this is a CONTROLLED binged. Controlled, meaning I am not loosing.
Tumblr media
Sweets
MaxMallow Marshmallows - 15cal for 2 - 90cal for the bag
Sour Gummy Bears - 45cal for 13 - 225cal for the bag
Twinkies - 140cal for 1 - 280cal for both
For the marshmallows I've had them in the past, they are good, and sweet (they also have other flavors but I like vanilla). 12 for 90cal doesn't sound too bad for during a binge.
Sour Gummy bears, obvious if I'm craving for something sour then Im covered. Also got these to I can eat multiple bears, one a a time, thus lasting longer.
Twinkies!? Super odd food to have as a "Safe Binge Food" But both the Marshmallows and Gummy Bears are ZERO sugar. Twinkies were the lowest calorie junk food I could find (near me), that was REAL junk food. I want something with REAL sugar, cause you can only trick your body for so long with the 0cal sweeteners.
Salty
Popcorn Hot & Spicy - 25cal per cup - 270cal for bag
Veggie Straws - 220cal for the Bag
Popcorn Should be obvious low Calorie for a large bulk of food. Veggie Straw I got for how salty they are.
Meal
Chicken Salad - 70cal
Now I have this cause I didn't want just junk food, in my bag. I wanted to have real food/meal (hard to put a low calorie meal in you purse and not have it spoil though) so I have this. Im hopping that if I use the Veggie straws to eat it that it'll 1. Satisfy me and 2. Slow me down enough while Im eating to realize that I am satisfied and that I dont need to keep on eating.
Safety
Lastly the Cliff Blok Chew on here is 200cal. I keep it more for safety rather than a Binge, so if need I can eat this whenever I ever feel scared, shaky and faint.
" Not eating enough can cause you to have low blood sugar. If your blood sugar levels go too low then you might find yourself shaking and sweating, perhaps feeling faint or also having a pounding heartbeat. Having extremely low blood sugar can quickly lead you to passing out/seizures/brain damage/death. "
