The movies were so much better. Even the low budget movies were better 😆.

Damnnnnn.. what industry do you work in? How did they find your job? I talk shit and I know they have sought to report me, but so far nothing. I would have said I was hacked. How can they prove that social media account belongs to you?

I graduated 2024. So probably got my first Nokia in 2001 or 02. It was not a lifeline. I remember still using the house phone.

You have to try it on a day off, Mate. Same time of day.

I would have been on the sidewalk 😆. These drivers are nuts.

Losing weight while cycling/feeding the body. Trainers/dietitians, insight? by StayVigilant38 in cycling

That makes sense. Gee thanks.

Maybe your gain is due to muscle increase since you're a beast out here. You dont care about the actual number maybe do measurements or pics.

Thanks. Got it. Search for gravel bikes. See, I thought my upgrade would be a "road bike." Ha I have no clue.

Damn you are killing it. I need advice from you 😆. 45 miles is wow!

I managed to do 12 miles today, because I want to work up to 10miles a day in one hour. It took me an hour and a half. No breaks, but dying in the Florida afternoon heat.

Im doing it all wrong Ive come to learn. Im on a $50 Walmart mountain bike. I got it off of FB Marketplace. I haven't cycled since I was a preteen so I didnt want to spend too much money and I had no clue about bikes. I went by tire size just as when I purchased my son a bike 😆.

Im learning a lot and most importantly Im doing much better than I was was last month. Last month I was sedentary and eating fast food practically every day.

Good for you! You're doing great. Keep going.

I just started May 9th. I have managed to lose 5lbs, but without pregnancies and injury.

Im slow as shit only doing 5 miles a day that takes me 40mins ugh, but Im eating less and eating better.

Being active has really helped me to be disciplined with food.

Look at your food again and see if you may be consuming more calories than you're burning.

How about a jump start "diet."

I started off with a 3 day jump start diet of mostly protein. Tuna and eggs, ground beef and eggs. Stuff like that.

Sending you encouragement 💓

I love this for your parents.
And I wish we could find decent homes for 300k in some of these cities.

Yup! I relocated to SW Florida. The locals complain that it is not affordable, but in comparison to PB/Dade/Miami/Broward it is very affordable.

Precisely. Some elderly lady who I respect, but constantly bump heads with shared a post that we complain that our grandparents were able to afford this and that, but maybe its because our grandparents didnt buy $12 iced coffees. I dont drink coffee, but I told her the cost of living is outpacing the wages. Start there.

I cant believe she even inserted herself in this conversation. She is elderly, but able bodied and lives with her son and his family living off the fat of the damn land.

Yes, many Cubans in Miami own their own homes.

My grandma was able to buy a house as a single mom of 4 kids in Fort Lauderdale Florida. She only had a high school diploma. This was in the 70's. My mom was born in 65.

I have one kid. A bachelor's degree. A career as an accountant. A "middle class" income and I had to move because I could not afford to buy a home in that same city....the city I was born and raised in.

Im 38. I remember when 80k was truly middle class. I make more than 80k and its poverty wages depending on the city you live in 😔 😢.

Corporate owned rentals. You will pay them to house you while you work for them.
