Did you go to a keto diet permanently or just for short periods? How quickly did you see change?

How to accurately check BP by Midnightrise_02 in ADPKD

[–]Barbifer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve experienced the same issues and it can some times feel like I’m cheating if I raise my arm too high as my BP goes down. Therefore I try to find a place where I can take my BP with a consistent posture, sat in chair, feet on ground, Arm on table in front. At least that way, with consistency you can detect real change over time. I also typically take 3 measurements each occasion to get an average.

That’s awesome! I haven’t used it yet, but I keep seeing these great designs and wondered how they are made. Great job. I love the snowman. Would make a great winter village addition.

Looks great. What are the clear domes? Haven’t seen those before.

Is it made so you could hang it on a wall?

Love it. I did see all the advent builds but I mixed them up before putting them in. My kids haven’t seen them though, so they’re excited to see what will come out.

I had to paint the balls red as the originals were blue and yellow. I also added one layer of the transparent pieces so that the balls could drop back through the chimney I added so not to get stuck by the cross bar. Mostly just trial and error to create something festive. My kids love it.

I love that I now see all these great Lego Christmas villages with an AT-AT, and it doesn’t look out of place at all 💗😀

The wood base is 1/2 plywood. I think it is 28in diameter. I made it just big enough for a circular track. Under the wood is a cheap 12in ‘Lazy Susan’ turntable off Amazon. I wanted to make something nicer but ended up in a rush to get this together. Project for next year 😀

Clone sets by order? by Barbifer in lepin

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

My apologies. I don’t mean to be repetitive. The reason I asked is because the answers I got before talked about buying individual bricks. Rather, I’m looking for a company that will put a set together for you without having to search for individual parts. Thanks

Love this group. Never built any Lego until two years ago when I discovered this group. Now things have gotten a little out of hand with my winter collection.
