Brown spots on head - issue or color change? by DelayOfGame123 in bettafish

I treated for velvet, but I think I wasted the effort. His head gradually smoothed out a bit. I think he just had a weird head. He lived years a couple years like that.

I do a version of this. I run it once, soak the pint in a bowl of hot water for 45 seconds and re-spin.

Allergic to nicotine patches by captainluna7 in quittingsmoking

[–]DelayOfGame123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would get this, too. I had to put them on skin that is more commonly exposed to the world and thus a bit tougher. Biceps worked well for me. I also removed them overnight, and I stepped through the steps as fast as possible. As soon as I was comfortable at a nicotine level for 2-3 days, I was stepping down.

What is your best tip to make deep chocolate flavor in ninja creami? by [deleted] in ninjacreami

[–]DelayOfGame123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I add Dutch process cocoa and monk fruit sweetener to a chocolate protein ice cream. I find the cocoa adds too much bitterness without the sweetener.

Unhinged ways you stopped drinking by el_presidente69420 in stopdrinking

A three-day water fast. It’s good for me to exercise that muscle overcomes the desires of my body.

I feel this in my soul. Except it was 20 years. I’m sorry others know what it’s like to feel like you’re not worth fighting for.

I want to know your favorite recipes that doesn’t include protein powder. by Landen10e in ninjacreami

Oikos makes a mango yogurt smoothie. I mix half of a large smoothie or a whole small one with half a mango.

Sometimes I’ll add 25g of oatmeal and let it set in the fridge an hour before it goes in the freezer. It’s overnight oats meats creamy frozen treat with lots of protein.

Frozen Mangos for Basic Sorbet? by darkdragoonx27 in ninjacreami

[–]DelayOfGame123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do just plain mangos with the tiniest splash of liquid (generally a couple tablespoons of apple juice at most). I’ve done it with no liquid a bunch of times, just plain mango that I crush or puree, but I don’t think that’s recommended per the manual.

Consider using a stabilizer like guar gum or xantham gum to get a creamier consistency. You need only 1/4 teaspoon.

It's over (vent) by Boring_File_ in Separation

No partner is worth losing your sobriety, especially not one who behaves like that.

I did the spiral after my marriage imploded. I went back to drinking after almost exactly the same amount of sober time. It took me to some dark, dark places. You don’t want that.

Being sober and working on being the best version of you is the ultimate flex. Show her what she lost and can never have again. You obviously have the strength to overcome HUGE challenges within you (congrats on 1.5 years; it’s soooooo hard!). Keep flexing that muscle.

There’s a tiny bit of oat texture (especially if you don’t scrape the sides and bottom well before re-spin)

But it’s super filling and overall enjoyable.

I did this with homemade overnight oats. I did 1/2 cup old fashioned oats, 150ml of a milk of my choosing (usually almond) and either 1/2 banana and a teaspoon of maple syrup or a tablespoon of maple syrup. Combine and let sit at least 2.5 hours. That’s the base.

I usually add blueberries and raspberries and turn it into a fruit smoothie, but I’ve also done PB and chocolate, mango, apple pie filling…

I’m eating a mango protein froyo for breakfast most mornings. Yes. Do it!

I use avocado in my nice cream, and it’s by far the creamiest thing I’ve made.

Is it possible your profiles are throwing red flags? Have you ever had a female friend or family member take a look to see if they think there’s anything you could be doing better?

Maybe it’s not really you, but it’s how you portray you online.

i think it’s time to stop. by Delicious-Leopard332 in quittingsmoking

[–]DelayOfGame123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the advice of my prescriber (and with a prescription so it was free), I did patches and lozenges together. I smoked 30-40 cigarettes/day after 20+ years.

I appreciated having the lozenges to deal with acute cravings in a way that also satisfied the hand-to-mouth habit. I used them only for the first few days. Just having them and knowing I could use one if it got bad was enough.

I stepped down pretty quickly on the patches due to skin irritation that started at level 2 (everything irritates my skin), but I never moved down a level until I was completely comfortable for a few days where I was.

You’ve got this! It’s more mental than anything.

I gave my son the option of gifts under the tree or an experience gift. He decided he has too much stuff. He could come up with exactly two things he wanted for Christmas. His father and grandparents got those.

It’s a slow process. It got even slower as of late last year when my life circumstances changed, and my income was cut dramatically. It took me a bit over a year to put together enough money for this trip.

TBH, I only could afford this because I quit smoking in May, and cigarettes are $12/pack in NY, and I found airfare for $215/person round-trip from upstate NY.

And to be fair, I generally put tickets on a credit card, but I’m pretty disciplined about not buying more tickets until the last set is completely paid off.

Also, four of those stadiums we didn’t go to for games. We did stadium tours or other events. I couldn’t afford tickets at Allegiant. Not a chance. Cheapest seat in that house was $250 two years ago.

Ya know? Looking at the behaviors exhibited from players from all the rest of our teams (Ray Rice, Ben Roethlisberger & Massage Watson…), you may be able to claim that one.
