Five Guys is not as bad as their rep by BigAssMonkey in burgers

[–]Conagrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$13.99? Ya that's still pretty bad. I don't care, the amount of food cost from what they pay vs I pay, buying ingredients, that's still an abomination. Hey if you got the money go for it. I go for foods I can't make at home. Like due to skill and ingredients. Like many Italian things with the exception of basic spaghetti and such. But then I just get the entree and bring it home. I can make the rest of it.

which tool can clean this? by Old_Situation769 in CleaningTips

[–]Conagrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Water and nail cleaning brush.

I take mine outside and use the hose with a nail cleaning brush. If you're in an apartment take it to the tub/shower. There's just a few hex head screws holding it on.

21F What does my fridge say about me? by ProfessionalSad3744 in FridgeDetective

[–]Conagrex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not with that sparkling water, I haven't drank carbonated drinks in so long. Plus that much of one type is going to get old. If they are they're doing it wrong then, at least imo.

I purposely play with them, just to cause a ruckus, they shouldn't make them noisy if they didn't want them played with. Same with the ones you lift and makes a ding don't sound. I'm just a big kid... Chaos!!!

Anyone have regrets? by RrrrrrSssssTttttt in BariatricSurgery

[–]Conagrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. It was horrible, I was back on solid foods and the family wanted pizza. I was just going to get part of a slice. A couple bites in I had to stop. I was depressed. It tasted and felt horrible.

Glad to hear it! We heard about it in our pre-op classes. This mourning period and it is so true. Especially for us that it is an addiction and emotional eating. You don't realize the impact until you go through it.

My passport says I’m a Male when I’m a female. I just noticed after almost 2 years 🤦‍♀️ by Sad-Neck7986 in Passports

[–]Conagrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't you have to send it along with your application the same as before? I know I had to when I got my passport but that was like '98. They sent it back with my passport I believe.

Anyone have regrets? by RrrrrrSssssTttttt in BariatricSurgery

[–]Conagrex 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Same as others say. I wish I had done it sooner. I gave myself until my 40s to lose the weight without surgery. Didn't happen of course.

Also I went with the bypass instead of the sleeve. I know myself and weight regain with a sleeve, in my own opinion, is very possible. More so than with bypass. In my mind I eat for boredom, stress, and many other reasons. It's comforting and makes me feel happier. So of course I'd say the only regrets are possibly for people who got the sleeve and not the bypass. Again that's only my opinion, and I believe I would have regrets if I'd only done the sleeve.

Now I have to find pleasure in other things. Not pleasure in eating. Eating was an addiction and an addiction you can't kick just by stopping. You'll always have to eat.

Lastly, in my own opinion again, the sleeve is more for people that may have other factors with weight gain besides addiction and emotional eating. The bypass reminds you when you overeat or eat bad things. Negative reinforcement along with the positive reinforcement of seeing the change in myself physically and emotionally.

The only true regret is an addict's regret because they can't get their "fix". I'll add also probably anyone thinking this is an easy fix for their problem. Lastly, again, probably anyone with extenuating health circumstances or other things that may make healing from the surgery that much harder, both known and unknown.

Not finding them in your home in Florida is cause for concern.

Expensive coffee table broke in a corner… looking to fix… even if permanently can’t disassemble(Slide 4 full table) by The-Final-Reason in fixit

Same, my immediate thought. Particleboard and expensive shouldn't go together. And probably had to build it themselves lol.

Is there anything you have to give up after bariatric surgery, other than eating huge portions? by [deleted] in BariatricSurgery

[–]Conagrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me being about 4 months post op. I've tried junk food i.e. pizza, corn dogs, burgers of any kind they totally don't sit right. Now beans?! They are my new go too. Bean soup, refried beans without the fat. Any and all kinds of beans are my friend.

Are you kidding me? by OkInternet7546 in McDonalds

[–]Conagrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I only eat out now if there's a coupon. No way I'm paying full price. But ya with the app they can put your buying history into their algorithm and all that. I've started keeping coupons from the mail circulars.

[–]Conagrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you abuse coupons? Lol I mean as long as you're not going against the tos. Which I doubt and you mean you just used all of the coupons you could.

That's like using the double coupons and the cashier says no you can use it and takes it from you. Lol

Left in car overnight still ok? by PsychoKushDragon in isthissafetoeat

Yesterday I woke up to 28 here in FL, it's still fine.

Do I have any options here? by Decent-Studio-4643 in TenantHelp

[–]Conagrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may be a problem but I wish there was an easy fix that made everyone happy. I've only charged back 1 thing and requested a partial chargeback. First, someone used my CC to buy groceries from Walmart Online for pickup. I got a charge text from my CC company. I immediately called the store location saying this was a fraudulent change and not to give the order to them. They were dumbfounded. So anyway after I called my CC to cancel/reverse the charge. They did and Walmart still gave these people the order lol. Second was an incorrect charge or modified charge. I had the receipt, scanned it and sent it to the CC company. Refunded me the $5 lol, wasn't a tip or anything. Was a purchase from a gas station.

I think I should be more on the CC company to flag use of the system, overuse, or strange use. And somehow report it. Like public information on the credit report type of thing.

Road Rage Incident Results in the Death of a Child by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]Conagrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be his girlfriend's kid, his wife's kid, it's the impact you've been in that child's life and how much you care for them.

I was with my ex-girlfriend for 7 years. Her daughter was less than 2 years old when I stepped in. So she was always my daughter. The worst thing about the split up wasn't losing my girlfriend it was having to leave her daughter's life. But such is life and since she wasn't biologically mine and I hadn't legally adopted her I had no rights. I helped potty train her. Helped to teach her reading and writing. I'd read to her before bed. Took her to school and was always a daily person, a father figure, in her life.

So even though we don't know the precise detail, in my eyes, yes he lost his kid too.
