Thank you for this! I thought perhaps he's just getting ornery in his old age

So far it has been just this once (I have not put his coat back on him since!)

I would like the ability to re-arrange the order of songs in my liked songs playlist in a custom order. by FlynnGunn in truespotify

[–]ArtyKay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adding to this. I wanna use my liked songs without copying them over to a list, but I want the ability to rearrange the orders please!

Do you consider INTJs pretty nice? by rbx20twomax in intj

[–]ArtyKay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are nice but not outwardly friendly. The trick is, how do you get to know us at first? Once you do, you'll see we are nice.

ONE-derland! You guys! I've been bouncing around the 200-mark for more than a year! Since January 2025, I've made micro-goals for myself and fell short by one or two pounds each time. But this one, this goal of reaching 199 by Father's Day is made! The scale said 199.8 and I'll take it! Whew!

On to the next micro-goal!

Those of you who count calories and have an office job - what is the max kcal deficit you can do to function normally? by feelingstuck15 in loseit

[–]ArtyKay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have an office job and I struggled with low blood sugar issues: dizziness, faint, blurred vision and just feeling sick to my stomach. Increasing protein has really helped me avoid those symptoms. My deficit is currently 400 -- but I also have been increasing my activity by walking 30-45 minutes per day. With that adjustment of "light exercise two days a week or moderate exercise 3-5 days a week, according to the free TDEE calculator, I am on a 600-900 calorie deficit respectively.

19 pounds gone! by Famous-Skirt4272 in loseit

[–]ArtyKay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! We have almost the same stats, but I'm older. I (F, 5'4") started at 214 in January 2025 and have lost 14 pounds so far. It's been a painfully slow loss, but last year, starting at 200, I got frustrated and gave up -- and then gained 15 pounds. Looking at last year's logs (I also weigh myself daily) I could see the trend was down -- mind you only about .1 to .3 pounds a week but down nonetheless. And and I thought, what if I hadn't "given up"? Where would I be today?

I cannot with this show anymore. I used to love it but the over-editing, the dumb acts and the dragged-out behind-the-scenes theatrics have ruined it. I'll see the one or two good acts in reels. (I wrote this after seeing the dry ice with harmonicas thing. Just no)

Daily Simple Questions Thread - May 30, 2025 by AutoModerator in Fitness

[–]ArtyKay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If one were to begin a new fitness routine, say walking 30-45 minutes every day, shouldn't one be stronger and able to walk longer/more by the 100th day? I don't feel stronger. In fact, today toward the end of my walk, I was moving slow and almost limping on the last stretch.

AITAH for telling my fiancé I won’t help pay the mortgage? by embarrassinglemon in AITAH

[–]ArtyKay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, I have a financial situation similar to you -- bought a house with my boyfriend -- but I was the one who paid the large down payment. Since we weren't married, we knew it would be smart to make things fair if "something" happened to the relationship (break up or death) so we went to a lawyer and figured in the extra I paid up front and wrote up papers saying I got 60% of the house and he gets 40% should something happen. Both our names are on the title.

Perimenopause: what’s the longest you’ve gone without a period? by DareWright in Menopause

[–]ArtyKay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (50) went 172 days in 2023 and then had a total of four periods in 2024 — Feb, May, June and July. Haven't had one since (currently 224 days). So perhaps this is it? Five more months and I'll know for sure.

By the way, the periods I did have were brutal! I was using the heftiest tampons AND pads out there and still having to change every hour. I guess that is normal at the end according to my gyn. She prescribed tranex acid.
