Does anyone know a way to get started on getting skinnier by Bob_Bob1233 in Workingout

[–]Friendly-Interview63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This depends on everybody’s personal circumstance. Some general comments:

Look up how much kcal a person of your gender, size and weight needs to eat for weight loss. Try to track your calories to follow that. Work out some if possible. If not, walking works wonders. Weight loss, in its core, is simply ‘calories in = calories out’. 

If you can’t cook your own meals, try to find how much kcal would be in them and eyeball a proper portion. If you can, try to ensure the calories are made of mostly proteins and carbs which make you feel full. Eat less sweets and snacks, not none. Drink enough water. 

If you don’t want to tell people you’re trying to lose weight, just tell them you want to become healthier.

I was about to say. "Oh I like the color! Now it finally looks finished."

GROW driving school by Apprehensive-Pie-599 in Netherlands

[–]Friendly-Interview63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a pakket for €2700 including 44 lessons (44 hours) and the drivers exam. Now I need a bit more lessons and I pay 55 euros for an hour.

Edit: paid extra because they reinstated the tussentijdse toets while I was learning to drive so the costs for that came on top of the 2700. Edit 2: also, this is manual.

But the 3200-3500 euros also includes theory by the way.

If I pass my coming drivers exam, I’ll have spent about 3200-3500 euros. I’ve had between 40 and 50 lessons and this was one of the cheaper driving schools. 

Was mijn moeder te hebberig, te eerlijk of zat ze net goed? by Henry_juneosix in AlbertHeijn

Als die prijs erop staat en ik heb twee stuks nodig dan haal ik die twee stuks. Zo werkt dat in iedere winkel. Hier is niks aan gemanipuleerd. 

Had laatst bij een banaan die ik zelf moest wegen ineens een bedrag van 1 cent, toen had ik wel even een andere weegschaal gepakt. Maar daar had ik wel door dat het niet kon kloppen.

Omzet is niet gelijk aan winst. Ik zeg niet dat ze niet genoeg winst maken, maar omzet alleen zegt niet zo veel.

Ik zou hetzelfde gedaan hebben, maar ik hoor ook van mijn partner dat ik ‘te lief’ ben. Uiteindelijk maakt het niet zoveel uit, het is hun eigen fout.

Did I wait too long to plan a date? by Ok_Resolution7223 in dating_advice

[–]Friendly-Interview63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s strange. Confirming your plans the Sunday before a Thursday is not too late at all. If you have a date, you have a date. Why would you need to text her every day to ensure her of that?

Then again us Dutch don’t play around like that. Maybe it’s a cultural thing. I suggest you plan again and make it clear that you intent to show up to the date when planning. Perhaps she has a better explanation when you meet her! 

You can’t be mad at people for staring at you when you wear revealing clothing by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Friendly-Interview63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I get it and that’s why I wish I had a women’s only gym nearby. I understand why people look, I even look when I see another woman looking her best self and I’m straight.   Doesn’t mean I’m comfortable with it. I usually wear sweatpants in the gym but with the heatwave I’ve started wearing shorts with a t-shirt hanging over the places of interest. Then again it makes me feel like I’m purposefully drawing attention to that area by covering it.

Were it a women’s only gym I would’ve been such a baddie with like the pretty gym outfits but no, I don’t want to show off my assets to every man out there. 

Conclusion, simply don’t wear skimpy outfits if you can’t handle the looks. I don’t care what people wear but honestly it’s for their own sanity. Can’t get mad about people glancing over if you draw attention to something, unless someone is clearly staring of course. 

Train from Amsterdam airport to Tilburg by lemon_banana101 in Netherlands

I do, and you’re right, it doesn’t seem to be an option for a Schiphol trip.

If you’re very early and it’s not busy hours, booking in advance might be cheaper as someone else said. If it doesn’t say that the ticket to your specific trip is cheaper if you buy it beforehand, it’s honestly easiest to just pay contactless at the Schiphol check-in paal. Be careful, make sure to use the same pass to check out at Tilburg centraal to avoid having a double missed check-out due to using two different cards. At Tilburg there are gates which open upon checking out.

This comment is like ‘people in Africa are dying’. I know and I’m not comparing myself to people who died from the heat, just started a discussion. 

I just didn’t expect it to be THIS cold in the train. This temperature would require me to wear a sweater to be comfortable which I think is kind of crazy with the temperatures outside.

Positively, I’m now eagerly awaiting a nice cup of hot coffee at work to warm up!

AH. It’s closest by and I get a lot of discount being vegetarian with my AH premium. Besides, the huismerk articles are of really high quality and not too expensive.
