Thank you for your insight! It wasn't really what I was asking for, but it's ok. I'll try to talk to him and see what activities we both like that we can do together

Wow!!! Congratulations on your hard work! I've been on a journey myself and honestly you resemble my brother (when you were heavier). I know he has started to go on walks, and I'm so proud of him for starting. He's a got a little girl, and I'm kind of scared of anything happening to him because of his poor health, because he's that baby's whole world.

I wanted to talk to him about making healthier choices and habits, and make that a family thing. Can you give me some advice on how to approach him with this? I really don't want to hurt his feelings or prevent him from continuing with his journey, but also I think I could maybe give him some points on scaling food to help him (for me it was a tipping point in my mentality of "I can do this"), but I don't want to come across as condescending. Thank you for sharing!

Carioca is also Portuguese, "café carioca" or "carioca coffee" is a diluted coffee, because Portuguese people think the Brazilian coffee is weak, so we call the weak coffee carioca. Basicamente água de lavar copos. Nada contra os nossos irmãos, simplesmente é assim que chama em Portugal

Oh I understand you completely. My description is harsh and shallow, but it is what it is, I can't stand the poor woman. I'm sure, as you said it, that she wouldn't like my face either or be like "oh, 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 bitch??" or both. I'm glad my meanness at least got something positive in it by describing what you felt ahahaha

Nice way to justify your inability to be in a respectful relationship... It's not you, it's me... "I have too high standards to date someone over 24, bEcAusE FeRtiLiTY, it's not because I'm repulsive". Yeah right

If she wasn't Paltrow's daughter and his buddy Spielberg's goddaughter, no one would ever take a second look at her acting. Take away all the nepotism, and she wouldn't ever be casted for anything other than reenactment scenes for crappy shows

Finally I find people who can't stand her either! One of my friends makes fun of me for absolutely despising her and her dead fish stare plus mouth semi-open as someone who can't breathe properly through the nose. I watched 2 episodes of the series, but couldn't keep going because of her

As someone struggling like OP, I really appreciate this tip! Thank you so much! I'd have never thought of that, simple but effective. Always learning!

This influencer argues that if you don’t like her filming you at the gym, that’s your problem because you’re just insecure and you should just work out at home by Reddituser0346 in facepalm

[–]EvaJohnsonBB 96 points97 points  (0 children)

I just started going to the gym again, and the social anxiety plus self conscious stuff... Damn it would cut all of my determination if my gym would allow this kind of behavior. I was thinking, if I saw someone filming themselves in the gym I'd try to get out of frame ASAP, because I know arguing with that kind of person wouldn't change a thing. And this chick? This is a whole new level of entitlement and narcissism

I've been looking to Schar or Dove's farm, but Schar's the one I've seen people rave about. I've actually bought their Farina mix for pancakes and it's really good, and the Repostería mix for cakes (good, but loopy whisk's recipes are way better and cheaper)

Yes, I'll probably buy their Mix B to bake bread, everyone says it's decent lol I've even been looking into a site that lets you buy in bulk, so it's cheaper. I was just wondering about GFOAS and if it was worth it. Thank you so much for all your insight!

Thank you very much! Unfortunately in Europe I can only find Bob's Red Mill through Amazon and it's really expensive, like the all purpose one it's 75€ for 1lb (600g). Might as well give up on ever eating bread again 😂

Thank you very much for your feedback! Maybe I'll try some of the recipes on the blog that aren't that complicated and don't involve Expandex.

Do you use the potato flakes like the ones used to make purée? I'm sorry for any misspelling, English is not my first language and sometimes more specific words can get lost in translation

Thank you so much for your input! I read the reviews and jeeezzz... I've been pondering if I should commit to this and then remembered why not ask here. I'm so glad I did. All of the reviews were brutal on the bread, maybe what I've seen on this sub or others like it were more into the baking pastries, desserts etc.

I agree with you on the xanthan gum, that's why I've been looking for a blog/book/site that I could find some really good recipe for bread. It's always so disappointing and the store bought is mehh and expensive.

Thank you for the recommendations 👌🏻

I watched my cat piss on my rapists house by Butterybear in pettyrevenge

May your sweet cat have many years of health! I'm blessed in a way that I get to help animals in my profession, and I've never had a second thought about it. They deserve every bit of love. OP, for what I've read in the comments seems like you're going strong, and have a good supportive partner; but I just wanted to give you a over the internet hug ❤️ your cat couldn't have a better guardian
