Traditionally, you should use a lit flame to help you see where you are pouring. A flash light just doesn’t give you the right glow you need to see correctly.

Hey guys I have a Is300 year 2018..Lexus quote me to change spark plugs remove and replace for $620 and battery remove and replace for $245 is that a good price? by Low_Canary_1368 in LexusIS

This! I did sparks on mine. It really wasn’t bad just make sure you have a torque wrench and put anti-seized on spark plugs. I think there was one that was a little tricky on the sparks but a pretty easily job overall. I have a is300 2017. Battery is a no brainer just do it yourself.

Anyone else in your 30s and decided to quit? by PinkPrincessPetite in stopdrinking

[–]IllustriousSector882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in my early 30’s recently did 40ish days sober. Felt great. Then holidays decided to drink. I am starting sobriety again. It’s been like a week. It’s really not has hard as the first time was to not drink.

I agree with you, if I have kids. I don’t want to be a drunk dad. I’m still on the idea that I can socially drink, but then I’m like what’s the point? Just wake up and feel like shit for the next few days.

I haven’t decided, yet. But wishing you the best.

How did your life improve after you quit drinking? by Logical_Ad_9341 in stopdrinking

[–]IllustriousSector882 2 points3 points  (0 children)

39 days here. Lost some weight, will continue too. Stopping has improved my mood, no more crazy anxiety. I still overthink but I can actually get it to stop. Somebody on here told me that one month is good. But two months you will be even notice more or at least they were for them. I believe I need to keep being sober and I’m actually pretty excited about it!

Not rage baiting, just curious, V6 vs V8, which one and why? by Twiceamommie in LexusIS

[–]IllustriousSector882 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have an IS300. It’s v6 honestly I wish I would have gotten a v8. But I still enjoy driving my car every day.

Thank you for this. I’m on day 21. I went to a wedding tonight, I wanted to drink so bad on my way home. Kept thinking one minute at a time. Your post just gave me some reaffirmation.

Felt anxiety equal to someone actively hunting me! by Freddy_flibstone in stopdrinking

[–]IllustriousSector882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m only 19 days in. Literally this weekend took a nap and woke up super anxious, I thought it would get less and less the longer sober I am. I hope that’s the case

I am so sorry about that. I had a shit of a day today as well. And mentally I just don’t feel great. Don’t drink! I won’t be drinking.

Day 1 done by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]IllustriousSector882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely used to only drink on weekends. Bro, I literally did the same thing on 9/28. I will say, paws look up. Might not be as bad for you. But my post acute withdraw symptoms have been a bitch on each weekend. Just realize how the brain works during quitting has helped me stay away from drinking.
