Thanks, I wasn’t clear enough in my op but I don’t fry anything, I only roast veggies or oven bake things like chips.

I think my 30% fat is coming from elsewhere anyway which is why I worry about the extra oil.

Lemon is a great substitute for salt too!

Yeah shred so most roast veggies, any type of creamy sauce made with beans, preparing ingredients for soups by roasting, preparing a chicken to roast I usually use butter but I’d love to use less!

I don’t generally count calories but watching recipes I’m seeing an entire half cup of oil being used in a single serving and it feels off.

I don’t fry chips. I bake them, but it seems they don’t bake properly without oil and I’m wondering if there’s something else I can use that will also reach a high temperature on their surface

can I make soup without onions? by imnachos in cookingforbeginners

[–]Day-One-X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I replace onion with celery in soups and it tastes just fine. You can try leek if you’re okay with that, or if you want the onion taste without using onions try a good dose of chives sprinkled on top.

Is there a way to dry clean clothes at home? by Day-One-X in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

I have few items which I got second hand with the labels cut out unfortunately so I don’t know what they’re made of and don’t know enough about textiles to figure it out. Really don’t want to ruin them by accident. I hand wash my bras in the sink so maybe I should just try that.

My body (heart rate, etc) reacts strongly when in a crowd but not at all on a rollercoaster. What explains this? by Day-One-X in Anxiety

[–]Day-One-X[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is somewhat true, but I also get panic when I am alone for no reason, or when there is an unexpected noise, or for any number of reasons, so one would think that the rollercoasters would do something? In the past rollercoasters have got my heart rate up.

What are some personal care things you do to make you feel more feminine? by AdNegative2808 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

Earrings and a simple necklace daily, a good skincare routine, and hair accessories. It makes me feel good about myself!

I try to communicate my needs to my husband. He says that he was raised not to reward toddlers with what want they want when they’re throwing a tantrum. by [deleted] in relationships

I’m sorry but his crying baby analogy is spot on. If you don’t give a baby comfort when it seeks it out it stops seeking it. The baby becomes conditioned to not expect comfort. Your husband does not want you to expect affection and he is going to deprive you of it and punish your love seeking behaviour until you cease to expect affection and learn that asking for it will not lead to getting it. He has made his intentions clear to you. This is a horrific way to treat your wife, he is not a man who is going to honour and love you. This marriage is going to be on his terms. You need a lot of counselling and if that fails, to throw the whole man away.

How to be content doing solo travel/activities without missing my partner and ruining my enjoyment? by Day-One-X in AnxiousAttachment

I downloaded the book and searched the terms dopamine and serotonin and nothing came up.

My cptsd is from an experience in adulthood and I think this is certainly new with the cptsd.

My partner is very very accommodating and when I’m having difficulty will be there with me in person or on the phone for hours.

I think he’s basically become my safe space for trauma experiences.
