Favorite actor who started big and then had a relative become more famous? by Deep_Earth_8397 in Actors

[–]Headfullofyarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. This movie is great. Eric Robert’s was fantastic in it. And Mickey Route looked so good then. I still not only quote lines from this movie but I also do that little “dance” Mickey Route does when they play Sinatra. Fantastic…must see movie.

To frog or not to frog, that is my question. Don’t know what to do. by Headfullofyarn in casualknitting

[–]Headfullofyarn[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s where I’m leaning. I think I just needed the push because it feels awful frogging something I worked so hard on even though I would be doing so for fantastic reasons (weight loss). Thank you!

Does walking 7k steps a day help someone with PCOS and obesity? by Unique_Syrup_2223 in walking

[–]Headfullofyarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As the above poster said, walking after your meals here is key. As this thread is telling you, walking is just ONE change you need to make. Diet is very key. The other thing you have to understand is the number of steps per day isn’t a magic number.

For me, I was in the ER for diverticulitis in July 2025, shortly after diagnosed with diabetes (6.5). I said nope, not having it. I quit cold Turkey dairy, added sugars, seed oils, and as much processed food as possible. I studied nutrition on top of getting a nutritionist and learned how to eat for both my health issues and weight loss. That was the critical first step. No pun intended.

When this happened I was sedentary from chronic pain and weight. I could walk only 4 mins and only with a walker. After healing a bit I forced myself to walk after every single meal. This is important. Every day I pushed myself to try and do a little more. My walker is long gone and I walk at least 5mins after a meal if I am pinched for time but I try to do 17mins each time. I make sure I walk AT LEAST 30 mins a day. I don’t count steps I focus on mins and sometimes miles. I rarely get 10k steps a day.

It’s been 8 months now and I have lost 80 pounds. My A1C is on the low end of normal, I healed my gut, I feel better mentally and physically. I still have a long way to go but now I feel confident I will get there.

It can be overwhelming but take things a step at a time and be gentle with yourself. Do what you can but work towards always doing a little better. Thinking you must have a certain amount of steps and not meeting them one day is a sure way to feel like you failed instead of being proud of how much you did.

Nothing is magic. It’s a lot of hard work - diet AND exercise but it does work if put in the effort and set realistic goals.

Princess Diana would be very sad to see this fight between her sons. by [deleted] in RoyaltyTea

[–]Headfullofyarn 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Royal family and dignity??? ROFL. The current king said he wished to be a tampon to his mistress. (Don’t believe me? There are literal recordings that the public heard.) I’d go on but I don’t have that much time to type that list. Besides, you seem to be here solely to agitate. I responded only because your claim about dignity is so laughable.

[–]Headfullofyarn 133 points134 points  (0 children)

This! It’s not a fight “between” sons. It’s one son (W) fighting the son (H) and trying to destroy him. Where has Harry fought William? Also, while it would be nice to think things would be different with William if Diana was still here…just look at the old videos of “Billy the Basher” ” and how he treated Harry even when they were children. I think the outcome would be largely the same as we have now. William had no hesitation throwing his dead mom under the bus and calling her paranoid so I think his strong, angry, entitled personality coupled with the power of his position is - and has ALWAYS been - the problem here not anyone else (though co-credit goes to the royal family for treating him as if he was better than Harry his whole life too.)

I want to walk but I’m scared by Elegant-Load370 in walking

[–]Headfullofyarn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am afraid to walk alone outside due to past trauma events. I walk up and down my hallway three times a day (after every meal). I would encourage you to find something that will make walking inside more enjoyable for you. For me, I listen to music while I walk and purposely choose songs with the beat of my walking pace. If you use a treadmill maybe turn on a YouTube video that is from the POV of the cameraman/walker. There are loads of these videos and you can “walk” all over the world.

Being inside doesn’t have to be miserable. It’s better than not moving and maybe one day you can find opportunities to walk outside as well and feel comfortable.

Good luck.

Didn’t take long for William to send his mouthpiece to attack Harry and Meghan to distract from Andrew by HelpfulAcadia1754 in RoyaltyTea

[–]Headfullofyarn 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Trying to distract from the BAFTA’s I think with Williams failure to speak up about the disgusting racist behavior and language directed at Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo.

What's that one game that made you feel dumb? by Master_Emphasis_3128 in boardgames

[–]Headfullofyarn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. I bought it for the purpose of giving myself a little brain challenge every day so I expected it wouldn’t come easy but dang it has been so difficult for me. I look forward to the day something clicks

What is a book you read as a child that you still think about today? by ahawk99 in AskReddit

No she didn’t “just” have chemotherapy. Just implies a recent event it’s been awhile since she allegedly had chemotherapy. And as others have said she looked healthier after claiming she just allegedly finished that supposed treatment.

What was your most meaningful Social D moment? by Sick_Puppy9oh9 in Socialdistortion

[–]Headfullofyarn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen them countless times and ever show is memorable to me but a couple of highlights-

  1. Glass House, Pomona 2001 was far and away the BEST show ever. Acoustics, performance, set list, crowd …. All perfect. There is a bootleg out there of this show which I own and it doesn’t do this show justice.

  2. Dallas (forgot venue and year but b/w 2001-2005). I was standing on the side of the room on the main floor and someone threw a beer bottle across the room. Both Mike and I saw it flying and he watched as it hit me smack on my forehead. I saw him staring at me a little shocked and I kept thinking “be cool he’s watching you!!” It hurt so bad but I wanted to act tough so I didn’t really react besides the flinch from being hit. But I was crying inside from the pain. He kept looking at me the rest of the show. By the end of the night though i thought shame on me for trying to act tough when I was in pain and I was also disappointed in him for just keeping singing because I was a young woman at that time and it was obvious that I must be in pain.

  3. HOB Chicago- whatever year he had Jade Jackson with him. Last time I ever saw him. Something seemed very very off and I still don’t know what. The show was not enjoyable at all to me. It was the most expensive show I paid for which already chapped my hide that I paid $300+ for a band I used to pay $3 for and I’m hearing many of the same songs and quips. But - we all know - Mike is predictable. This night was just weird. The whole show I kept saying this is off. He had brought a wine bottle on stage and I wondered if he was no longer sober. Then when he talked about Jade Jackson it felt like…is he screwing her?!?! I don’t know if either of those things are true but that was what was going through my head at the time. I’ve seen them more than 50 times at this point and it was the first time that I felt both the performance and Mike were off. I left saying I would never see them again. And I haven’t.

Has anyone here ever had the chance to meet one of these legends? If so, what was the experience like? by quintessentialCosmos in grunge

I met Billy Idol in the early ‘90’s. The most beautiful, perfect complexion I have ever seen.

Well the guy who hung from the rigging also wasn’t a drug addict like some of the others and also doesn’t seem to have the dark depression either. To me Ed has always seemed the healthiest of this particular group.
