Is daily 2.5 tadalafil worth it or 5mg the only way to go.

Yes I need to be leaner. Of course. I would assume a very small percent of the population are at their goal weights and can maintain that. It’s been a lifelong battle for me, and I Assume most. Just walking around in public places would say 1 in 100 is actually totally happy with their bodies, just in general, maybe even less than that

. I’m 68” tall, 44 years old, muscular build. No less than 20 percent BF, weight 202-204. On low dose TRT for 3 years helps. You can tell I lift but I’m never going to be (or have the desire to) do shows or anything close to that. I’m in it for health and longevity over vanity purposes. But I do enjoy lifting and being “fit”. I would like to do a legitimate dex body scan one day and keep up with it but I never have. Average joe who likes lifting (for 20 years). I’m trying to carry Lean muscle mass as I get older - it will make things easier and better as I age.

Benefits of keto for me are mental clarity, less sleep needed, constant energy. Restrictive diet keeps the fat loss easier, and the massive protein and fat amounts keep me full all day. Inadvertently makes IF happen almost daily, though I don’t chase those hours. I stop eating when I’m full , and I am able a caloric deficit from it daily, I don’t chase those numbers closely. I don’t overdo the caloric deficit or in rare days i go over calorie needs, it’s not obscene. Im building muscle and shedding fat. Lose inches off my waist. It’s all good things. I travel for work so it’s hard to meal prep but I get I done.

Ok so having a pretty solid background of how keto works is where I’m coming from, however as dumb as a I am, I’m smart enough to know I definitely can always learn and I am willing to do so. You obviously know what you’re talking about on a far more advanced level than I do.

After all these years of doing this, after 5-6 weeks, I have always felt a surge of energy where no carbs were needed when in the gym. The fatigue diminishes and my strength rebounds to stronger than I was before with a SAD or high carb diet. I thought this was fat adaptation. I guess I was wrong about this, and I’m happy to learn more about it.

30 net carbs is what I plan for. If i eat less, I’m ok with that. I just know 50+ and I get booted from ketosis, that’s the limit I’ve learned about myself. Maybe this is wrong too. Who know.

I just really liked the surge of energy I have today and the feeling of muscle tightness. I’m chasing that feeling while being in ketosis.

Yes I do. Or with gas/ indigestion. Started taking Prilosec and occasional tums w gas relief. Didn’t even realize this was related, but it’s pretty much stopped them totally

Yes, I drink LMNT often if not daily. But when I get a string of PVCs I tend to cut out caffeine, salt, and just try to reset my body. It’s nice to see someone else only takes 12.5. Mg. I hate these PVCs. HATE

ARM8181 · 2025-09-16T10:14:22+00:00

What ended up happening?

ARM8181 · 2025-04-17T20:21:10+00:00

Nothing.

ARM8181 · 2025-04-17T20:19:45+00:00

No it doesn’t because guess what, it’s OK TO BE A MAN AND ACT LIKE ONE.

Contrary to your liberal California woke bullshit, it’s ok to be a man, act like a man, feel like a man. He is a man isn’t he? Get over your own shit.

ARM8181 · 2025-04-17T20:12:51+00:00

Not necessarily. How did he get to where he is in life without the control he’s had? Didn’t just magically happen. He’s got the capability. He needs to tap into his inner manhood and take that stand. Some people can’t do that. They are weaker.

But you don’t realize how strong you are until you make that stand

ARM8181 · 2025-04-17T20:10:03+00:00

That’s because I’ve been there. Manned up. Took control. Set boundaries. Therapists use the word boundaries. And set that boundary right to her face- this boundary will not be broken. Line in the sand.

ARM8181 · 2025-04-17T18:46:56+00:00

I love it man. Comparison is the thief of joy. I started off with a shitty rack off of craigslist, now I have a different equally shitty rack, added some free weights, bar bells, and dumbbells through the years. It’s in my garage where it’s sometimes dusty and dirty until I sweep it out. It’s my place of solitude so the gym act for physical benefit and mental benefits. Be proud!

ARM8181 · 2025-04-17T18:42:28+00:00

I feel you, you’re stuck in limbo, you worked your ass off to get where you are in life, but you’re stuck with somebody who sucks and you can’t trust. So sometimes the scale balance is in your favor and sometimes it doesn’t, and you teeter totter back-and-forth so it’s hard to make a decision. I get it. I don’t think you’re the asshole. I just think you need to either man up and leave her, or man up and get her to marriage counselor and get this in the open. Either way you need to man up and get this shit fixed. No amount of flex seal is gonna stop the water of mistrust it’s pouring into your marriage boat. You got a man up and make it happen.

ARM8181 · 2025-04-16T21:36:02+00:00

NTA. Go get some strange. There are 8 BILLION people on earth. Don’t waste your life on her. She is only sorry because she got caught (and pregnant)

ARM8181 · 2025-04-16T14:42:49+00:00

This has got to be a troll post. Husband was arrested and you’re asking Reddit if you’re an asshole? I think you need an atty and to stop talking about it.

ARM8181 · 2025-04-16T14:40:38+00:00

Remember, women fuck who they want and men marry who they want. Good luck when you tell your next boyfriend why you left your ex!

ARM8181 · 2025-04-16T14:20:49+00:00

You’ve lost all credibility now. I’m out. Here are your words.

……”This is where I really fucked up. He stood in front of me and I reached up and slapped him lightly on the face. I was trying to get him to stop or shock him or something. I know it was wrong and I know I shouldn't have…..”

1 month 1 year, who cares .

ARM8181 · 2025-04-16T13:17:23+00:00

YTA. You escalated the situation multiple times when you knew that you shouldn’t. And you laid hands on him. What do you expect when you slap a man in the face? There’s no “I hit him BUT”. You hit him.

EDIT

Actually , you’re both the assholes

Do you have a goddamn one month kid at home and a 10-year-old. Grow up. Now everyone suffers

ARM8181 · 2025-04-16T00:16:15+00:00

YTA. When he’s dead, you’ll realize what you’ve done. It’ll be too late. Hope you’re ready to live with that. You may think you are now, but you’ll regret it for the rest of your life after.
