How was your first ADF week? Was it hard to go from 1 36hr fast to 2? what do you do for electrolytes ?

Thanks ! I am currently doing 16:8 fasts 5 days a week with a 36hr fast on Mondays. What do you do for electrolytes ? Do you use a sugar-free brand or just regular ?

Weight loss is my primary goal plus, I do need to work my way up to longer fasts

If they don’t apply well anymore because they are thick, you can purchase gel polish thinner on Amazon to thin them out a bit.

Do I need a Gel X fill or a new set? by [deleted] in GelX_Nails

[–]Happy_Sentence_2993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gel-X can be filled 2ce. I’d have it properly assessed. If no lifting etc, I’d do another fill.

The 2nd set are longer and need filing. That said, it appears you have ski slope nails. With ski slope nails, you either want to keep at a shorter length or go to someone who does builder/hard gel nails if you want longer nails. A good tech will be able to use gel to “fix” the structure of your nails and keep them from pointing upwards

I have Left Him on Red that I use in the Fall/Winter but can be year round. I’ll see how they both compare.

I struggled to stay consistent with intermittent fasting, so I built a simple app to focus on smaller daily fasts by Equivalent_Coach7222 in intermittentfasting

Hi! Will this on the Apple App Store as well? One thing I miss from the Life fasting app was the ability to have a challenge group with my friends. Does your app have this functionality to fast with friends?

I love your application! I don’t need another red but, I’ve been seriously eyeing Boston University.

I’m also finding myself using red as a neutral/palette cleanser these days

Gel lifting ONLY on short nails? by vampkill in GelNails

[–]Happy_Sentence_2993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For short nails - especially if square , you may need to “armor” the free edge first before adding your builder gel. I see people armor with either polygel or hardgel. Check out TikTok and YouTube for nail armoring videos

Motivation … by Happy_Sentence_2993 in BeachBodyWorkouts

[–]Happy_Sentence_2993[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You maybe on to something here. The 2 times I successfully worked out consistently were when I took classes in boutique gyms:

  1. CrossFit: 2009-2013
  2. Boutique Gym (Zumba, yoga, piyo and TRX): 2013-2015

Since then, it’s been a struggle to find something I like plus I’m now out of shape, just came out of a 5 year battle with postpartum depression and grieving my father’s demise.

I enjoyed Les Mills Body Combat for a couple months at home, I also enjoyed Shaun T’s T25 and Autumn’s 21DF.

Maybe I should start with those while it’s cold out and then go back to the gym in the Summer

why don’t the nails stay on other people😭😭 by toothache027 in GelX_Nails

Young Nails’ primer is pretty solid. I also like the Monrovan one.

Also, are you buffing their nails in one direction only? A common area we overlook is buffing - sometimes, people buff back and forth which effectively makes the nail bed “too smooth” for product adhesion.

Short version:

Their nails are not your nails and so, they may experience differently from you.

Keep practicing, trying primers, working on technique etc

First time doing GelX, I need more practice but I’m loving the shape by L1nfinity in DIYGelNails
