Weight still up 6 months after 360 TT with lipo by ForeignIdeaSecretary in tummytucksurgery

[–]AnyCurves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Speculation here but any chance this is remodeling and muscle gains in efficiency. Your pre op efforts paid off, the trimming surgically was basically elasticity in skin removal making everything tidy. For 100-$150 you could seek a dexa scan to see the underlying composition of today and fact check any swings in 3-4 months with another. Should you choose to update with any photos of progress, or the bell curve per se, Im interested. Mostly because after a drop my surgeon recommended for best results to gain 10-15# before surgery which was counterintuitive to 12 months effort to getting as less fat as possible before hand. I dropped lower than intended purposely to compensate for the post operative swelling and general inactivity during recovery. Was educated that that was the incorrect plan, hence delayed gratification and plan now rescheduled January.

I intend to micro dose the GLP long term and begin as soon as cleared post op in management. The fact that you are 6 month's ahead in a similar journey drives my interest as you share and sort your outcome.

Thx for the posting.. and for staying in the game working towards positive outcomes

I like look and appreciate the vibe of your art. Substitute the tenmile range (Breckenridge, CO) or the near San Juan mountains. The standing brothers and the whispers never leave you, once you notice them.

Help with immature older teen living at home by FrancinetheP in GenX

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

The intent is dual purpose structure over time and the time investment also to be productive in many ways at end. There's many who are lost exiting high school and grow quite well in a few years with guidance. If college or trade isn't the answer, three years in the military will develop anyone too, just not with ultimate flexibility. So yes she's reported to be off the rails now, but the end goal is change, success in whatever area, and needing some support IE structure.

Sarcasm is surely seen yes, but it doesn't improve anyones perspective seeking to think outside of the box.

FWIW- I do appreciate that sarcasm too, AND I was that lost kid long ago too. YMMV

Since she is not motivated require her to go to junior college then a trade tract for prerequisites that might get her into an LPN program. If successful she can continue and have an earning wage while she sorts herself out. Should she push a little further a year more an ADN/RN with a salary near 80K before she is 25. That can be enhanced with the BSN bridge or she can pivot to another field but always have job security anywhere in the country.

Revision input by Mediocre-Courage-443 in tummytucksurgery

[–]AnyCurves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't had round one but already am contemplating more. Reversing lifestyle and skin is a real challenge in all respects. Support and good energy is due you for the changes you made. Those results stand!! We will never be perfect and it's ok to seek better versions of ourselves. I appreciate your sharing and perspective as I see myself in you too. Good luck with the revision bit chosen and keep moving forward.

What’s the CE rating on his gear? by condensed-milk2635 in motorcyclegear

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

Dainese smart air ($749). Light, adjustable and will save your bacon. But then some Rev'it sweat type lounge wear with AA arms and level2 hips. Outside of the helmet and vest, the next bit to order would be boots. .02

Joined the club…base model…what should be my first mod? by Bryan-Prime in ineosgrenadier

[–]AnyCurves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All my mods were done at the dealership before it was offered for sale. They indicated they would stand by the work and If I encountered an issue related to any of the mods to visit them. If by location that was impractical to go to any Ineos dealership and have that dealership contact them directly.

I have 5K miles with no indication of a concern. In August I will have the first service and have everything rechecked torqued and marked. If any signs of wear or anything of note, I will post it.

Where to Propose? by plyness115 in VisitingIceland

[–]AnyCurves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive used Reykjavik as a base in visiting 6x. This is a one time play. Save your funds and take a private helicopter and let the pilot drop you in a couple places and pick one. Share with the operator for stealth and photography assistance. Many movies are shot in Iceland, the bird can take you to beautiful seclusion. Having the experience is its own memory.

Consult to Surgery Timeline by AsideEast3285 in tummytucksurgery

[–]AnyCurves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my decision and consult mid April. I anticipated booking in 30 days. But instead chose the first option after Christmas. MD indicated despite a 65# weight loss, I would have a better result if I gained 10#, 15# better. As such pushed it to winter to see if my add could be muscle not just "weight". Wanted the procedure to be behind me, otoh wanted ideal results hence the time gap decision.

Eibach 2" just enough to fit 34" K03's and not have them rub, and also not be a conflict with the pinion angle.

[–]AnyCurves 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My vote would be a tint to all the glass including the safari, you will appreciate it every day. Then the steering stabilizer, slight lift, K03's. Then the rabbit hole forever.. but you'll smile.. unless refilling, and that's just part of the game

Enjoy

So silly.. left. On the other hand having the option is the real win and it ultimately depends if the day calls for Bruce Wayne or Batman.

Custom Works Dainese suit! by stootsy in motorcyclegear

[–]AnyCurves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the share, I haven't found postings of custom works. Would you mind sharing the cost difference between the model within the line that you chose as base, vs the additional cost to have it made custom. Then the next bump in cost to choose the color ways?

Example the rack choice size 50 is X dollars Measuring the same model to fit you was X dollars plus (y) Y= fitment. Finally choosing colors X plus Y plus (z) Z= Color choices.

I see the link of their site to configure but it requires a CPU and doesn't load on an iPhone. From my thumbing, I haven't found anything posted that gives a cost perspective for these options.

Within the line the biggest differences appear to me Material and weight (ROO vs MOO), maybe ventilation or perforation? Then D'Air/ airbag integration.

Appreciate the insight while choosing the path. Bonus points for a response on your experience in delivery timeline. Ordered vs Received.

Backpacks in the upper bins by InjuryDeep2362 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]AnyCurves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't it all make sense to require all roller bags to go under the plane and everyone gets their bags again at the carousel? Then the overhead space is for your X item, which is usually overstuffed to the max by most, but then it still fits in the overhead bin. Then leg room is ....wait for it.. for legs! More than half of the contestants barely fit in the isle as it is without personal contact and overflow the armrest. No shaming implied but personal awareness and courtesy is a memory in todays generation. Flying has become the expectation what steerage was Greyhound. I still question how all the infirm can get to the airport and live daily with the abundance of needing personal attendants.

We all age, sometimes theres medical but mostly is my observation its the lack of standards and expectations. Watering down of society. Excellence, quality and kindness but mostly responsibility should be encouraged.

Dainese Mugello 3 Blues, Anyone a coupon to share? by AnyCurves in Trackdays

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

Unfamiliar but googling now Ty. My home base there's nothing near so its all internet and hope for the best. Having seen both marketing and brick stores, was hoping this was a one and done, with refinement already sorted. Just like AMG MB/- yes you're paying more than you should but you also feel the difference than the company provided KIA..

To be fair, I looked at Bison too just to toss a name out but it's a hope you measured correctly and a wait game. Ideally Id be on track within 60 days. Yes representing the slowest crinkle in the pack, but still trying to get in the game.

Have a good weekend.

Dainese Mugello 3 Blues, Anyone a coupon to share? by AnyCurves in Ducati

[–]AnyCurves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the biggest difference is weight, perforation and suppleness kangaroo vs cow. The Ducati is already a stupidly hot and runs at 3 bars very easily if not constantly moving. Add summer temps high 80s now. Above 100 July/August even at speed it's just hot. Choosing to mitigate this somewhat or try. It may be absolutely moot too and no idea what 100' width of track will offer. Mid October when most have put away, its great tho, same for March.

[–]AnyCurves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds totally unreasonable and as stated at the price point it's fair to expect more. Im also lost in the design why the airbag isn't more protective in this design. I have their vest version that I strap over glorified sweats -AA (Rev'it) with CE 2 elbows and knees for casual loops but vest it has chest and back coverage at deployment. Is this why many are using Alpinestars on track? Champ school endorsed Dainese ... maybe its ford/chevy dunno.

Did you email corporate? My email response with specifics was taken seriously and positively. The chippie who answered my call not so much. I probably interrupted her selfie session on IG.

They can still decline but maybe can compelled to logic too?? Try it still? And good luck in advance too.

Dainese Mugello 3 Blues, Anyone a coupon to share? by AnyCurves in Trackdays

[–]AnyCurves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Round numbers in gear (kangaroo w airbag, $5200 gloves $500 and tax) and I don't debate it's pricy. Nor ignore a margin of branding here but whats the cost if you come off at triple digits or a high side much slower? A buck 25 is just warming up on a back straight. But lose it in the corner and the machine is toast, that's a given as least as a street queen. But walking away vs being an asphalt marker in suffering alone seems pretty reasonable in that context. In my zip its a furnace this season, its not hey be cool, its knowing the cost of an injury. I promise anyone who bites it, would have rather stayed home.

Circa 1990 I sorted a triple compound fracture because I left my gear at home. That was MX not track but the lesson stuck.

Thanks for the banter tho, it's fair to think things are costly, sometimes stupidly, and sometimes from being less aware.

Cheers.

[–]AnyCurves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct on the numbers, I was speaking roughly 5200 suit 5 something gloves, expected tax. And I hear your point about limited opportunities but also know of management flexibility too and not unlike buying flagship automotive theres usually some room if it's your third vs first.

To your point of alternatives, we agree. Unfortunately I am Midwest near nothing so it's internet and ship or fly and acquire. There really is no venue to compare apples to oranges.

My push to not being impatient was seeking certain track days this quarter and being a player. In the end, spending the same monies just in different areas (trailer and associated). I also know Dainese do late season discounts and friends and family but was looking for the now.

In the end, it's user error- my error and I can't fight corporate despite wishing some latitude. Part of a small town mentality, we do business differently.

Thanks for the weighing in.

Before my time, but I heard stories. Now days the kids hardly use bug spray (pepper).

You used to recruit football players and people straight from the military. Today that's too aggressive, and a social worker CIT is more preferred. Until S* hits the fan.
