6’1 Male 22 years old. Back in 2024 i was around that 70KG mark however by the end of 2025 I was 91KG I didnt think much of it up until then until I started regularly getting comments about how fat or chubby I was, and then when I looked at pictures from the year before and how good I looked compared to what I was at that stage I decided to start my weight loss journey. However 9 months later I’m only at 84KG. At first I was on 2200 calories a day and then 2000, but even then I wouldn’t really take it seriously I’d still exceed the limit when I’d go out (which was often). But now I’ve made the intention that I want to reach my goal by the end of this year. What advice would you give me? I just went down to a 1800 calorie limit is that enough or do I go down even more? I know 70kg might be hard by the end of the year but even a 10kg loss (74kg) would be fine. So realistically maintaining a 1800 calorie limit or less where could I see myself by the end of this year?

Instead of trading your own personal account, is trading solely through prop firms like FTMO actually viable long term? I’m sure everyone knows about prop firms changing rules, accounts being closed due to violating rules such as the 1% rule. Any full time traders who only trade prop firms and don’t use their own capital? If so: How long have you been doing it, how many prop firms do you trade at once and how much do you make?

I applied for a job at M&S Foodhall and now I’ve got an interview however I didn’t notice until after that it’s temporary. I tried surfing through the sub to see how long temp jobs during this time are but I could only find posts about xmas temps. I just wanted to know how hard is it to transition from temp to permanent? Do I mention this at the interview or if I get the job mention it to the manager near the end of my contract?

I always hear about certain Roman provinces for what they were famous for, Egypt as the empire’s breadbasket, Africa for its wealth and grain, Hispania for its gold, silver, and other minerals, Syria for trade, and Brittania being where many usurpers rose from. But I rarely see much discussion of Mauretania. What was Roman Mauretania actually like in terms of its people, cities, economy, culture, and military importance, what did Roman authors mention about it and what eventually happened to it? Was it simply less significant than other provinces, or do we just have less surviving evidence?

I’ve got a job interview tomorrow for a M&S foodhall in London, the hours advertised were 14 hours but I was wondering if I could ask to work more than 14 hours since I’ve been applying mostly for 24hour week jobs but I kept on getting rejected. I’d be fine with 14 but I’d prefer at the very least 18 hours. So is this something I can ask the hiring manager or is it inappropriate.

I applied for a sales assistant role here in London and I’ve got an interview coming up, but I didn’t notice until later than on the dress code section of their website it mentions that beards and moustaches aren’t allowed for employees, and I happen to have both. So I was wondering do I even go now? Or is it not enforced in London?

About a month ago I started topical 5% minoxidil however since then I’ve been struggling a lot with my hair always being dry and flaky and the fact that I have long hair doesn’t help either. I read online that this is because of alcohol and propylene glycol in the minoxidil. So are there any kind of minoxidil brands that are free of alcohol and PG that anyone can recommend? And before you guys recommend oral minoxidil I already have enough body hair as it is.

My game speed is always on full however after 50 years or so into a single save the game gets incredibly slow that you just can’t play anymore. It will take like 5 seconds to get through just one day on full game speed. My question is, does anyone else have this problem and if so how do I get around this?
