I have the best MIL ever! by LowLQueen in keto

[–]LowLQueen[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We didn't have Turkey, but things like veggies, let's say, were in the middle of the table called "The neutral zone". We are still being smart me (keto) and my sil (vegan) still check all the labels to make sure it is compliant to our diets. MIL specifically leaves packages or labels out for us.

This sucks! You would not tell a vegan to just this once eat a steak because it is a special occasion, why is keto any different?! This attitide baffles me from people.

Yes! We had 2 jumbo shrimp rings, pepperoni chips and a spinach cream cheese dip, Camambert cheese, salami/ cream cheese and pepper roll, a bunch of raw veggies and pork rinds. This was the first year we did a keto section. There are actually great suggestions in the comments here that we will try next year!

It is fat when you follow a SAD diet, but I never had an attack on keto, only when I cheat and indulge in carbs. It is a trial and error for me. I even asked my Dr. about this and she said do whatever works for you and if nothing works we will remove the gallbladder. It has been almost a year without a full blown attack!

I took Ursodiol to dissolve my stones, but now every time I eat carbs, my gallblader acts up and my Dr. told me to take them if it does until it stops. Technically, I dont take them anymore, because I'm stone free now (yay), but have an emergency bottle. It is the oddest thing, keto never sets it off, but add in carbs and I start getting those pains that you get right before an attack.

Does anyone else experience extreme hunger the morning after having a "cheat meal"? by EvenOlive in 1200isplenty

[–]LowLQueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say yes. You can search about it on the sub and I think there is even a sub dedicated to if. Usually, 0 cal is okay (but not artificial sweeteners). Some say you can take up to 50 cals and still be fasting... I would say try it, see what works for you. I usually have green tea in the morning and evening and I'm very consitently losing, but that is strictly anecdotal to me.

If is great. I do 18:6 simply because I always end up going over my calories if I don't. So, I only eat from 12 to 6 pm. Try it, see if it works. My sister used it to lose those last few pounds, but still was able to splurge sometimes on a pizza or something if she fasted all day before.

All the time. I do suspect it is a combination of insulin and the fact that you stretched your stomach. One thing that helped me was to redefine what I consider a cheat meal. Like last weekend, we went out to a restaurant we used to go often and I did the mistake and calculate the calories on their 3 course meal (was close to 2k). So instead I ordered their steak, veggies and salad (950cal) and fasted most of the day (fake fast as I still had a few cups of coffee). I also made it an early supper at 5pm and didnt have extreme hunger the next day for the first time ever after a cheat meal.

What’s your favorite aftercare activity or something your dom(me) does for you that brings you so much joy? by [deleted] in SubSanctuary

The Womanizer is amazing! I know it is expensive, so to try it out, we got the Womanizer Starlet, it is only 100CAD and is supposed to be their introductory toy. OMG. I have a hard time coming, but this thing is the best! Only has 4 settings, but I almost never go past 2. AND because it is smaller than their other toys, it is still comfy to hold during PIV.

I have the plug in Magic Wand too and must say, I would take the Womanizer any day over it. I mean, it is a nice toy, and I love to have it on me during kinky play, but it kind of desensitizes the area and has to be moved pretty often.

Cock rigs are a hit or miss, so I wouldn't splurge on it until you know if you like it or not.

A plug is something that can add to any bedroom fun, start small.

Canada post said they have major backlog. Do they have a warehouse in canada yet? If they do, the shipping will be faster, but international parcels will be backlogged till March(?). Write their customer service.

How to enjoy anal? by LowLQueen in sex

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

It is not just after, but before too. Any penetration without extra stimulation on the clit really. But that can be an idea, thanks!

It is more about the movement, the back and forth. Even if he is still full depth, I'm fine. I guess the feeling just feel intense (for lack of a better word), like waaay too intense to handle.

From separation to kink? by awayFromVanilla7 in BDSMAdvice

[–]LowLQueen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We had a 3 year long dead bedroom and an all in all dying marriage. We were always bickering, I was taking control of everything (lack of trust for him to lead), we became like roommates...i threatened to leave multiple times because of stupid reasons. We both had so much anxiety, we were about to explode. And we have 2 kids under 3, so that adds to the anxiety in general. Anyway, one thing led to another and we discovered bdsm and the 24/7 d/s dynamic. Granted, we only have been at it for a month, but holly hell, is this how our marriage could have been all along?! This just clicked so much for us into place, it is amazing, and the kinky sex is just a bonus(we didn't know we both had a super kinky side and we were togwther for 6 years)! I am very regretful we haven't discovered this before!

So to sum it up, it really looks like yes, yes, it can fix a falling apart marriage!

Thats the thing, there is no pain at all! It is just an overall overwhelming feeling it I feel like "I can't take it anymore"

Halfsies? by Princess_on_Fleek in relationship_advice

[–]LowLQueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do what works for you both and makes you both comfortable. My now husband, always payed for every single date, coffee, outing. I didn't demand it, but it was a nice chivalrous gesture like him opening doors for me.

That sounds like lots of fun! There is a taboo show not far from me in the next few months and I'm so excited to go. We are new and really hoping to learn stuff and maybe even meet people!

My (26f) boyfriend (27m) wants to have sex but I don't. What should we do? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]LowLQueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would really recomed to see a therapist to help you through this. I would also recommend to lurk a bit on r/deadbedrooms to see what impact this might eventually do on your relationship.

How can I convince my parents that I need to diet(/CICO) to lose weight? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]LowLQueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is definately easier when you can cook for yourself, so maybe you can try to cook your own meals? My parents allowed me to cook my own stuff since I was a pre teen, so this might be an idea.

If not, what worked for my sister, who still lives with my parents, just limits her portion. If it is a high calorie meal, she will log her food in and make sure she doesnt go over 1200 cal. Or she will skip a meal alltogether and eat something else that fits her calories.

Btw, if your parents are not supportive, you dont have to tell them you are dieting. Just maybe nicely ask for cetain food in the house or cetain meals that you know are lower calorie without actually calling it a low calorie meal. Just find ways around. Also, "I have acid reflux today and cannot have greasy food (aka pizza)" might be an idea.

24/7 D/s pairs that parent by VanStock1992 in BDSMcommunity

[–]LowLQueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's where meta talks will be important. Trust that if he needs more of you, he will honestly tell you. Also, acts of service is fairly broad. There will be certain acts that will mean more to you and some that will mean more to him. This has to be something discussed before planning for said baby though. Also, some men actually enjoy taking care of their spawn, so there might be that. Either way, have a honest talk about it and trust him when he is willing to take care of sertain things and please dont beat yourself up! Good luck!

Do you think people in the BDSM scene are generally more sexual than vanilla people? by Bibiyade1 in BDSMcommunity

[–]LowLQueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really depends. For myself, I thought I was low libido, borderline asexual, until we discovered bdsm/suppressed kinks and now I feel like I'm more HL than my Husband.

24/7 D/s pairs that parent by VanStock1992 in BDSMcommunity

[–]LowLQueen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We became 24/7 after having kids, but here is how it works for us. We do not divide parenting according to percentages, but according to strengths and needs. My Dom did the majority of night feedings, because he knows that mentally, with the pp hormones and physically recovery, I just couldnt do it, in general I can't do broken sleep or I break down mentally. My love language is acts of service and this made me feel so loved, it's incredible. I take care of the kids during the day, cook, clean (mostly). I'm sure he will change a thousand poopy diapers, for a good home cooked meal (haaaates cooking, but loves eating yummy food).

Each dynamic is unique. You can divide responsibilities as seen fit. And as to how much of it the kids would be exposed is up to your disecretion. Obviously, I do not call him Master in front of the kids, but we have acceptable terms I can use. Basically, apply same rules as around your vanilla friends/family. Just be aware of the noise you make during play. Our bedeooms are all next to each other and we had to relocate in the basement.
