Can I still lose weight only doing upper body

I injured my leg a while ago, and haven’t been hitting legs. I just wanna lose weight, not really gain muscle (I’m a girl) or like gain it but just to lose weight faster not to look bigger. Is this possible?

Edit: I am already eating on a cal deficit I’m just asking about workouts. Thanks

Beautiful boy

I just watched this movie again after being sober. In 32 days I will have been one year sober from crack cocaine.

Funnily enough, I watched the movie back in 2023, the literal summer before I fell into drugs and started using. Not that the movie got me into it, I had already started experimenting with it just before I got home for a couple of months.

I genuinely think the movie was made for me. I know a lot of people think that. But just little things alongside the whole plot, a brother of the same name, the fights with my parents asking the exact same things in a room near identical to the one he was in when they asked him why, the timeline with school and age, the use of the notebook for drawings and writing, the book “the beautiful and damned” making an appearance when I found that book in my neighbours book nook one day when I tried to stop using. The coincidences almost killed me watching it again the second time and I cried so much today. I just think it’s a beautiful beautiful movie and everyone should watch it, especially if you’ve also recently become sober.

Are there any sikh / Punjabi people on here I can talk to living in Hong Kong?

I’m looking to make friends with someone who speaks and writes Punjabi (Gurmukhi). I need a little help with a letter I want to write to my friend’s dad who lives in Canada.

I also would like to know more about the sikh religion and learn how to speak the language.

Thank you

Can someone help me translate this letter? I used google translate and need someone to tell me if it’s correct or if there’s a better way to say it.

This is what I translated (go down to comments for a picture)

Dear Mr Grewal

I just wanted to apologise for causing such a traumatic moment in your daughter's life. She meant the world to me and was my best friend. I also wanted to say sorry to you both for hurting her especially after you invited me into your home and took care of me. Your trust and kindess will always be treasured by me.

Thank you for everything you've done, but most importantly, for bringing Amrit into this world. She is going to be someone I'll never forget.

Sincerely,
(My name)

I just wanted to share this because after 2.5 years of not having closure and not knowing how she felt about me I finally heard what I needed to hear to move on.

This is about a friendship. A really strong one, maybe in the fuzzy grey area of romantic and platonic love but it’s the same thing to me if not more important and impactful. Anyone else want to share their friendship breakup stories of someone you never thought you’d stop being friends with?

With technology advancing, what apps do you think will eventually be forgotten about that we use daily today (MySpace, Facebook, etc)? And which ones do you think you’d use decades from now (social media wise)?

Bullying at HKU

Has anyone had any bad experiences with classmates at HKU? I’m talking not with people you knew in high school that also went but just people you met in classes. Thanks:)

This is a little dumb.

A year ago I was in a pretty bad shape. I lived in a horrible crackhouse with the worst people you could never even imagine. They would r*pe, ab*se, and hurt me emotionally everyday. I fucked up really badly with life and just ended up there with the wrong people.

I think tonight I’m just sad about something really small. I left a teddy bear I had since I was 9 there. My dad bought it for me and I remember being the happiest kid that day. And I took him everywhere. He moved houses with me, slept in all the tiny beds I slept in, and kept me comforted every night.

And then I moved into that house and one day I was admitted to the psych ward and I left all my things behind (at least what was left of what wasn’t stolen) and I left him. He’s just probably there now, watching the horrors of the world around him. I imagine him just wishing I’d come back for him and I feel like a kid who lost her best friend. I know it’s dramatic and it’s just a bear but I loved him and I feel like I ruined him by bringing him there. And I’ll never see him again and it just sucks. I don’t know what I need to hear but I’m just sad and I feel like my childhood is getting violated the longer he stays there. I just hope he’s safe and hiding somewhere, and not watching the world I taught him go to shit like I learned when I grew older.

Basically I sent her a final text saying that I wanted to explain why I didn’t feel comfortable with being friends anymore. We had a couple of conversations prior but she took weeks to reply and I found it disrespectful which also added to it.

This is what I sent today:

Also I have to tell you that id really appreciate it if you took some time out to just shoot me a quick text to let me know if you’re busy or if you have other stuff in your life going on. I don’t mean this in a dismissive way to your own life and making mine out to be inportant or a priority to you but it’s basic respect to just tell me if you could reply later or that you needed time to think. Like this is an important conversation and I’m being proactive in trying to work it out with you and you dismissing me twice now “on your own time” and not being able to just take the time out to let me know you’re gonna reply weeks later is disrespectful. I was gonna say “it gives me enough reason to not want to be your friend” but that sounded a lot more aggressive that i want it to sound. I just mean it in a way where it’s kind of my boundary and I feel like you’ve been taking advantage of it in a sense. Like it gives me the impression that you aren’t bothered to deal with it or that you’re not finding this equally important, and that’s something that matters to me.
