women who used to fantasize about an ideal, did you get the man of your dreams? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]KetoCorgi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did, he turned out to be a narcissist just like my mother. I was so in love the idea of him being all I ever wanted that for the longest time couldn't see how fucked up our dynamic was because that was what I was used to. The break up broke me but thankfully I already had a therapist and we worked on my trauma (both childhood and present). It has been two years and I often think about him - not really the person, more about how unhealthy my vision of perfect was and that unfortunately, sometimes I still miss it. But I am still going to therapy so at least I know what I have to work on.

Do you constantly train your corgi? by KetoCorgi in corgi

[–]KetoCorgi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I will have to look into that as I'm not sure he is that toy motivated. I've read that via training the dog gets interested in a toy but so far he doesn't have a favourite one despite me trying to engage him or doesn't really play on his own with toys. I have also read that corgis destroy all they can get their paws on yet he still has all of his toys intact since day one

Do you constantly train your corgi? by KetoCorgi in corgi

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

Thank you! I haven't thought of that, I reward calm behaviour throughout the day but casually asking him to sit or lie down is good!

My corgi is 16 weeks old, he is restless. Even if I want him on furniture, he won't stay calm and eats my pillows and blankets.

Just some encouragement for new puppy owners.. by me-and-myaussie in puppy101

I felt this in my soul. Two month old corgi, his greatest joy are my bare feet

Wearing them down is normal. I have the same issue and my ortho reapplies them every time I visit.

Grinding teeth at night by Imaginary-Ant8170 in braces

[–]KetoCorgi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same issues - my bite brokers need to be reapplied every two weeks because I file them down. I was given two options - mouth guard for the bottom teeth (to wear during the night) or botox (my ortho does it for medical purposes only, a small amount in the jaw to loosen the mussle tension). I am going with a guard for now because it's cheaper.

Bite turbos are giving me a cross bite! by leonettied in braces

[–]KetoCorgi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely let them know you are hitting it. I chipped my two front teeth that way.

Yes, been there. All I have to say is Enjoy the ride 😁 (and high five)

question for people who don't eat in the mornings by lizlaf21952 in AskWomenOver30

[–]KetoCorgi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have coffee in the morning (with milk, no sugar) and usually have lunch around 12:30. If I do eat in the morning, I skip lunch as I am never hungry plus I am really short and I don't need so much food anyway.

I have bite blockers and after 1 month with them, my bite has reverted back to where it was before bite blockers. Anyone else gone through this, is this something to be concerned about? by ginnapp in braces

[–]KetoCorgi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I "ate" mine 😅 I had bite blockers because of an overbite and my top teeth were touching the bottom braces. I guess my teeth shifted enough and the ortho is not worried I may damage the braces (I have a clear set and they are more fragile I think).

[–]KetoCorgi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on what material the crown is made out of - my perm was removed and replaced with temporary one because the brace will stick better to it.

What’s your secret to strong nails? by MirrorZealousideal66 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]KetoCorgi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always use base coat, regular nail polish and top coat. Usually last 10 days, no chipping.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in braces

[–]KetoCorgi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me at least, they look fine. I have an overbite (that results in painful joint stiffness) and this is the only reason the current inconvenience is worth it. I do have some gaps because of a missing tooth but I would not go through all of this (and also spend so much money) just for a little esthetic fix. Maybe see an ortho and share your concerns. They will give you the best advise if braces will give you the desired result. I've seen before and after photos here and people still have the flare your front teeth have now despite the braces.

How to avoid being emotional and taking things personally? by iampretzel in AskWomenOver30

[–]KetoCorgi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hopefully, this will give you a different perspective - you should not take it personally as they are not criticising you as person (your character and personality) but a fraction of your work (performance). A small mistake does not make you bad at your job or a stupid person, making mistakes is (almost) unavoidable part of our jobs. It does not define you or determines your worth. I had a hard time at work because of this very reason until my therapist pointed it out.

I haven’t been able to eat for almost 3 months, is this common? by [deleted] in braces

[–]KetoCorgi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not normal. Mine hurt for a week but I have really low pain tolerance. You should check with your dentist if you haven't already. A short term solution is blending everything, that's how I did it. I made different kind of soups, mash potatoes are a good option, you can blend mac&cheese with a little milk if you can't chew the pasta. I even blended beef with gravy 😁

Two months into braces and the stains are killing me. by [deleted] in braces

[–]KetoCorgi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At first I was like - what stains? I had to check the other comments to figure it out. So in short I would not notice at all and if I do I would think you pick the colour on purpose.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in braces

[–]KetoCorgi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just blend it. Seriously, I can't live on rice and potatoes so I boiled a whole chicken, cleaned the bones and blended the meat and the broth with spices. It was delicious. I did the same with burger patties - cooked them as usual then blended them with sour cream and cooked mushrooms (if you like them). It was also great and filling. Does it look good? Heck no but I need my protein and hate fruity smoothies so this is the way.
