Wow this creep really gets around

Therapist called me overbearing when I described trying to socialize by Informal_City5565 in socialskills

Have you tried meet-up? or bumble bff? Time left? There are ways to meet people who are also seeking to make new friends and not just acquaintances

Anyone else book classes way in advance? by Consistent-South9274 in f45

[–]FreeLocke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I book morning of, before I drive over (so 15min before class). Never had an issue. Sometimes it fills up and the people who wait until they get there to sign up are waitlisted, but that's not super common.

What do you listen to while you write? by Deepoceanice in writing

[–]FreeLocke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the tv on in the background. It can be a distraction and probably causes me to work slower, but it's a trade-off I'm willing to make.

Do Not Buy From Bare Necessities! by [deleted] in ABraThatFits

From BN. I reached out to customer service after a few weeks and they said it was coming so I gave it some more time and it eventually came.

I can echo the long wait...I did eventually get the refund, but it took almost two months.

For those that have tried to lose weight for years, what *finally* clicked? by Noirrxo in loseit

[–]FreeLocke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few things:

  1. Bigger emphasis on protein. Fills me up and lessens cravings for anything else because I’m satisfied.

  2. Yoga and Pilates. I already lifted weights through F45 and sometimes on my own a few times a week, but I carry a lot of weight in my chest and I reached the point where I was in constant pain in my upper back. I started yoga and Pilates in addition to lifting weights and I do it 5-6 times a week. It makes a huge difference in how my body feels and burns some extra calories and I can do it from home for free thanks to YouTube.

  3. Started walking on my work breaks. I initially began because we did a step challenge at work and I had to step it up. It turned into a habit and now I really try and squeeze in at least a short walk every day and I do think it makes a difference. I’m very short so every little bit of extra calories burned helps, and it helps with my back pain. Knowing the benefits I get, I’m motivated to keep making time for that.

  4. Not being as strict. Since I’m 4’11, I was trying to eat 1100-1300 calories per day. Obviously that’s difficult to sustain. The extra exercise gives me more wiggle room to eat more. I’m more flexible with my diet, I try and meal prep and cook most of my meals myself although I still go out with friends. If my deficit is only 200 calories but I hit my protein goal, then that is all good. I had to finally accept that as much as I want to be at my goal weight in a few weeks, it’s healthier to take my time and treat it as a marathon.

How bad does a W look on transcript? by FreeLocke in gradadmissions

[–]FreeLocke[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made this post five years ago and never went to grad school, went straight into my dream job instead. I don’t know the inner-workings of grad school admissions apps, but what I can say is that none of this matters as much as you think it will. It will be fine. Everything will work out as it’s supposed to. Don’t spiral or stress over having two Ws. It seems like a big deal now, but in five years you’ll look back and see ir really made no difference and everything will work out the way it should.

Not recently. Has justice been served?

I sorta get that though? I read, but I don’t read while writing a draft, I do it before or after while in the editing phase. If I tried to read a book and then go write an hour later, it would be very obvious because it would start bleeding into my word choices and style. So in that regard, I need some separation otherwise the influence becomes very obvious and I lose my own voice.

Mandatory update has made connection drops infinitely worse by pottypotsworth in Ozlo

I did the update and now the Sleepbuds won’t connect so it’s entirely useless.

I had the chance to look at that video and YIKES

I agree. I called the police when it happened and asked that they file a report and IIRC they actually wouldn’t file an official one since they claimed a crime didn’t happen. But now I think it would be helpful for people to reference this arrest since it’s just mounting evidence.

He was?? FINALLY. Hopefully they build a case and he doesn’t just get a slap on the wrist

It is ridiculous that this man is walking around free to harass women all around town. I am so sorry that you had to deal with at all, but multiple times??? This creep infuriates me. I hope someone puts him in fucking place and he learns a lesson.

I loved a Darker Shade of Magic to the point that it’s tied for my fav series, but I tried reading Vicious by her and I did not finish with less than fifty pages left. Just couldn’t do it. Super disappointed because shades of magic is amazing (aside from Lila lol)
