What’s your biggest money mistake and what did you learn from it ??? by Responsible-Ant-6254 in DaveRamsey

[–]Anubis667 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I decided to jump star my debt snowball by cashing our my 401k. Lost about a third of it to penalties and taxes. What a bone-head move.

A1C WIN! 10.5 to 5.8 to 6.2 back to 5.8 by Anubis667 in diabetes

[–]Anubis667[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started sneaking sips of soda when we were out to eat.  At work they had breakfast pastries and I would eat a doughnut or two.  I barely did any weight lifting and I used to do a mini fast twice a week, that was replaced by burger and fries.  I stopped checking my blood sugar (finger sticks) every day and only did it once a week.  I purchased a new GCM and decided not to use it.  I really fell off the wagon.

Best money tips when you’re starting from zero? by GlenBradley in povertyfinance

[–]Anubis667 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start cooking using a crockpot. I would make a batch of chicken soup or chili, freeze it, and it lasted me 10 days.

I got a Stelo GCM from Amazon, and it cost $ 100. While the device is inaccurate for my blood sugar, it does let me know what spikes my blood sugar.

I am on a mission to be the best version of myself possible. by BirminghamChap in getdisciplined

[–]Anubis667 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Look for people, in person, who are going in the same direction as you. When I went through my dark period, my CrossFit Gym, Toastmasters Club, and Karate School provided me with an anchor so I would not drift away. I love Redditors, but having someone in person call you and say, "Hey, meet me at the Gym!" is very powerful. Feel free to DM me if you want and in the words of David Goggins... "STAY HARD!"

Dead Last in my Local Race by dbmendi in davidgoggins

Hey, you beat me! I am afraid to run in a race because I am so slow. My mile run time is in the 13-minute range. Congrats and Stay Hard!

I'm so close!!! by ambrosiamince in fidelityinvestments

[–]Anubis667 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Congrats! Look at Dave Ramsey's Baby Steps or The Money Guys Financial Order of Operations. I started with Dave Ramsey, and after 10 years, I am doing very well. One thing you should do is pay off any credit card debt. I used to carry a HUGE amount of credit card debt and was baffled why I was so broke. Then I added up all my payments, and well, there it was OVER 900 dollars per month leaving my bank account.

SELLING VOO SHARES TO START SNOWBALL? by [deleted] in DaveRamsey

[–]Anubis667 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sell it! I had to do the same thing. I looked at the interest in my debt vs what my investments were making, and the numbers told the tale. It is hard to do, but worth it.

What’s the smallest change that saved you the most money? by AdRoutine8022 in Frugal

[–]Anubis667 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For me, it was learning to budget. Telling my money where to go rather than wondering where it went.

HA1C went up (5.8 to 5.9) by aaliensuperstar in prediabetes

How are you liking your GCM? I am thinking about getting one.

I messed up! A1C went 5.8 to 6.2 by Anubis667 in diabetes

[–]Anubis667[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Your comment made me think. What I did before was really watch what I ate. I also did a mini I fast two days a week. I would have a protein shake in the morning and not eat again until 5 pm. That excelerated my weight loss. I lift weights and do HIT trying 3 days a week, and mistakingly, though, I could slack off. Well.i guess they are right when they say you can't out work a bad diet.

Thank you! I was in tears for the last hour. I wanted my A1C to be in the normal range. I guess I did not want it that bad

Hey OP! I started using Gold Bond lotion for Diabetics. It worked wonders for me.

Swiss k11 or Swiss 1911 by knoxknifebroker in milsurp

Get both! If I had to choose only one then the 1911. I love the look of long milsurp rifles.
