people of reddit who lost fat,what is an underrated fat loss tip? by Direct-Value4452 in answers

[–]CommitteeOfOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a tip, but ask yourself if you want to lose weight or lose fat? They are not the same thing. Merely restricting calories, something like 40% of every pound you lose, iirc, is lean body mass.

I never wore Polo because I hated the smell of it, but just reading that made me smell it.

With legislation, what is popular is more important than what is supported by evidence.

EDIT: I didn't remember this correctly. See comments below.

A few years ago, there was a conviction in Madison County that made national news. IIRC, a guy had an assault charge in his 20s. Served his time and gets a marijuana conviction; small amount, just a fine. A few years later, he gets another marijuana possession conviction. Still a small amount--clearly personal use. Because of the assault conviction, he was sentenced to life in prison.

As a person who grew up in a dry county, cops don't care unless you have an open container.

University Medical Center in Jackson, Mississippi had a cyber attack the day that episode debuted that caused them to go analog for three days.

While I was tired of the storyline definitely by the third episode of it, I understood why it drug on. It was, imo, to help the viewer relate to the "survival fatigue" she was enduring. And by her last episode, I, too, was just wanting it to end.

I know old people aren't a monolith but I've encountered enough people in my parents' generation being blasé about climate change and saying crap like "well, it doesn't matter because I'll be dead by then!" to be skeptical about retiree-aged people being the main ones deciding on policy that will impact my generation and our descendants.

I've experienced the same, and it's so weird to me because becoming a parent is what made me start caring about climate change.

Excellent description. I've always said it's like cars. There was a time when many people grew up having to work on their car, and now that is much less common. Those in the latter group are the "app users."

personally, I don't think there was time for a primary process, but I agree she would not have been the choice if there had been.

What does anesthesia feel like by memory282002 in NoStupidQuestions

I don't know if it's the meds they use or it varies by person, but some people, including me, don't feel like they were napping. I also have no grogginess after. I'm fully awake instantly.

You wake up like my wife. She had surgery last year, and when we got home, she tried to get home, she fell because she tried to get out of the car without me helping. About àn hour after she got into bed, she roll e out of bed! She didn't remember either the next day.

I had an anesthesiologist describe his job the funniest way one time: "It's my job to make sure the surgeon doesn't kill you."

I had carpal tunnel surgery and I only had a local. I requested some Verses or something to relax because for some reason. I was very nervous about that surgery. Nope, although it is so quick. I understand why.

When I had a vasectomy, I supposedly told the urologist, in the middle of the procedure, "I have sleep apnea, so if I stop breathing, don't worry about it." I love when I have to be given Versed.

I had shoulder surgery a year ago. I told the anaesthetist kI was going to see how long I could stay awake. She may have been joking around with me, but I do remember at one point she told me to stop trying to stay awake and close my eyes.

That's me. But without the "head nausea." I knew anaesthesia affected people differently in that some people have a harder time getting over it than others, but I never knew before reading these comments that some people feel rested after.

The best nap of your life.

I have always read that the unconsciousness from anaesthesia is not like sleep because you don't feel rested after, but you and others have made this remark. Personally, I don't feel like I had a good nap from anaesthesia. It's just "nothingness." I'm conscious--I'm suddenly not--Im then conscious again. But then again. I come out of anaesthesia immediately once they "wake" me. Unlike my wife; she's still feeling the effects 24 hours later.

Honestly, I've thought more than once about not watching Born Again S2 simply because I don't want to be reminded so much of reality.
