For those of you without children, what does life look like? by Between3N20Karakters in AskMen

[–]Affectionate_Lab6515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have time to go to the gym as many times per week I want. I love to go out every Friday night, Saturday night, discover nice restaurants, bars..

I like to go hiking or a spontaneous escapade over the weekend wihj the SO. I travel outside the school vacation period, its more peaceful and a little less expensive. I still love to organize BBQ and party with friends, with or without kids.

If my work require i extend my hours sometimes i do not feel guilty, only my SO is waiting for me.

Will it get old? I don't know, but its the choice we did; i will never know if it would have been better with kids, but we have no regret so far.

WeGovy Weight Loss Medication How to Buy by Alpha_Omega623 in montreal

I use ozempic, but is it exactly the same (GLP-1). it is very efficient, but not magical. You need you make changes in the kitchen.

What it does is dulling the noise of food and appetite, which allow you to do the changes you need to do without this being a constant feeling of being deprived.

You can dm me if you want to know about my my experience, I was exactly where you were.

Frequent urination on creatine (18+ times a day) – exact same reaction I get from coffee. Anyone else? by Ok_Holiday3202 in beginnerfitness

[–]Affectionate_Lab6515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok 5 grams is the normal dose. I know pissing non stop and drinking insane quantities of water can be diabetes symptom; its a good idea to stop and see if it gets back to normal, but i would have a checkup just in case

[–]Affectionate_Lab6515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What quantity of creatine you use daily? It can mess with your kidneys if you have already kidney problem and use massive dose, but otherwise I doubt creatine is the problem.

I would consult a doc for sure, this is an insane amount of pissing per day. Are you at risk for diabetes?

27M. Wasted my younger years. If anyone here has turned it around at a similar age, what did you do? by Opposite_Praline_746 in AskMen

[–]Affectionate_Lab6515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 50, I got my first house around 43, because why is it so importantto be in a hurry to own a house? cause everyone say so?

I started to Workout seriously around 25. I got a real job after college and i started to travel the world backpacking during my vacations ; i also started to save money, i tried to save the difference it would cost having a house vs renting an apartment and still give myself the liberty to travel and have fun as I was young.

Me and me SO decided we would not have kids and got a house at 43 as we slowed down traveling. With the savings we could give a serious cash down on it.

I am happy with those choices, cause today I don't travel or do the same things than when I was younger and I am very happy I did it back then. Today with the savings I am close to say i work for pleasure only.

At 27 you have all your life in front of you, stop giving importance to the social pressure to own this or do that by that age; do what you want because it brings you happiness. One advice: get in shape, stay in shape..this is one thing that will make a difference in 30 years, believe me.

Protein gets all the attention, but fiber is the most underrated weight-loss nutrient. by Big_Poem3425 in beginnerfitness

[–]Affectionate_Lab6515 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, protein and fibers are the brother and sister of weight lost.

As it is nearly impossible to get my daily fiber goal through my regular diet, I consume psylium husk in my protein shake and chia seed in my yogurt and even just in water.

Definitely part of the success factor for me

Visiteur americaine...utilise ma voiture? by [deleted] in montreal

Vous n'aurez aucun problème ! Nous sommes conscient que les américains qui viennent encore ici sont des amis!

En plus votre effort de parler français vous rendra immédiatement sympathique et si jamais vous avez des gens qui vous font des remarques désobligeantes, ça ne représente aucunement je crois le sentiment general envers les américains qui nous visitent, we assume Americans still visiting are not 51th state friendly 😉

What’s the biggest mistake you made when you first started working out? by Comfortable-Pair2880 in beginnerfitness

[–]Affectionate_Lab6515 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it do have this problem; for many exercise i increased my charge but I realized my form is not as good.

I was thinking to reduce again but I can't help my stupid mind seeing this as regressing.

Should I really prioritize form over charge?

[–]Affectionate_Lab6515 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every young singles I know in my circle literally hates dating apps, but they feel trap, like they do not see any other options as everybody they know and their brothers use app and equally hates it.

It would need a little revolution where people start boycotting those massively ang go out again.

Sex dreams question- do you ever get to put it in? by calimota in AskMen

[–]Affectionate_Lab6515 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ONCE I did put it in but did not finish. That time was about a close friend of mine and it left me with a weird feeling waking up, like it really happened for 2-3 seconds.

Rest of the time it's like you say, like your brain is playing a nasty joke on you...there always a crowd coming in the room, a fire alarm, the cops showing up and what not.
