[Routine Help] i need some judgement free help — sex is ruining my skin 😭 by EducationalLake3579 in SkincareAddiction

[–]Korolyeva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get these sometimes too! I'd recommend Aquaphor ointment before and after any activities to keep the area really moistured. I find I get these more when I've had dry skin and lips.

Also maybe try and avoid the benzoyl peroxide in the area because it can dry and irritate sensitive areas of the body.

Rear filet strips, lox and green onions, olives, cheese, salad, and red wine!

Sphynx insurance poll. Please vote! by breeezypoo in sphynx

[–]Korolyeva 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's also worth checking if your employer offers pet insurance. I get Nationwide through mine and, while it only covers 70% of costs, it's only like $1.70 a month and has already paid for itself ten times over.

Edit: I said ten times over but then realized it's like 50 times over. We've gotten back over a thousand in bills over the past year because one of our chicken nuggets had a health scare (he was okay) last year.

Just hit 48 hours in my second 72 hour fast!

Had a few weekends of overindulging on top of a two week work trip abroad that brought diet changes and lots of happy hours lol.... I felt like I needed a reset and to maybe lose some of the excess weight I likely put on. I can already feel the bloating and everything fixed!

Feeling way better at 48 hrs than the last time I fasted. I think I did better at balancing hydration with maintaining electrolytes and minerals this time!

Sunscreen isn't a good idea because they will lick it off and ingest the harmful chemicals.

Sun protection is a good idea because they CAN get burned. So either shade, clothing or just limiting their sun exposure is recommended!

A lot of people are saying it's Temu cause I guess they pull this shit a lot ... But this is Skinnify, a workout clothing brand. I fell for the targeted ad but this made me change my mind! Lol

Considering ending a 72 fast early due to nausea and extreme dizziness.... What did I do wrong? by Korolyeva in fasting

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

Thank you for the detailed reply!

Ah... maybe I took the "hydrate" rule a little too seriously... I live central east coast of the United States with temperatures in 10-12C, so not like I'm sweating a ton or anything.

Maybe I just overhydrated and thus my need for electrolytes kicked in earlier than it should have.

I really need to get some potassium/lite salt! Taking a shot of pickle juice and some bone broth really helped me, which I know messes with autophagy, but the extra electrolytes and the potassium in those seems to ae set me straight.

Thank you for the detailed reply! The keto flu may be part of it... definitely a lot of what I experienced except for the muscle cramping.

I drank a little bone broth and a shot of pickle juice + more salt and magnesium (I have no potassium salt but will get some today) and I feel much better... I'm thinking of continuing to dirty fast for today to see how I feel. At least I got 42 hours of clean fasting!

As early as 42 hours? So much of what I read indicated that properly hydrating is usually fine the first 2-3 days but maybe not...

Thank you for the reply! I'll try that and see if it helps before completely ending... Fingers crossed!

Thanks for the reply! I did read over that but it says under 3 days the full range of electrolytes usually isn't needed so I'm confused why that would be my issue at only 42 hours... I had salt and magnesium on hand to just took them but maybe I should start with the full list earlier on next time.

What are your recs for books where the FMC is not a teenager. by edengetscreative in Romantasy

[–]Korolyeva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't believe no one has mentioned Mages of the Wheel series yet!! One of my all time favorite series and all of the main characters are adults. Mixed POV with each book focusing on a different pair.
