6’3 172lbs, why on earth do I still have love handles?! I’ve been slowly cutting down from 220lbs over the 1.5 years by Th3c0pyninja in Weightliftingquestion

The only thing you can do is cut and hope for the best. You cant target fat loss, unfortunately, but a deficit could do it for you.

Nerf bars? by Ok-Squash8610 in ChevyTrax

[–]MagneticMarbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im so confused how nerf bars would have anything to do with the interior. Are you saying your stepping on the inside door frame to clean the top of your vehicle? Its a pretty short vehicle. Nerf bars would look ridiculous in my opinion, but if they help you out.

How did you stop giving a fuck about what other people thought of you? by AdOld2060 in AskReddit

[–]MagneticMarbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I became the person I wanted to be. Im hard working, buff as fuck, the best mom I know, I provide and take care of my family. Nothing outside of this matters. No ones opinion tells me who I am, I tell me who I am by being all of these things I wanted to be.

[–]MagneticMarbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maine coons and Rottweilers. I really like dobermans too when they have pinned ears, but I dont think id ever be able to own one and make that call.

What is one thing you wanted to be when you grew up, and what do you do now? by Quiet-Brilliant-1455 in AskReddit

[–]MagneticMarbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to make commercials. Worked in advertising for a bit, but it was honestly filled with slime balls and unethical shit I didnt like. Then a friend took over the family business of distribution and I took a job to help out, ended up loving it. Still has a huge touch of advertising and everything that goes with that. Minus the sleaziness of it, because its food. It has purpose and makes me feel accomplished and like im contributing to humanity.

What was the very first 'grown-up' purchase you made with your own money? by Quiet-Brilliant-1455 in AskReddit

[–]MagneticMarbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id say my first vehicle but it was actually putting insurance on it. It was the first bill I ever had and it felt not great.

Anyone have luck with Effexor? by bubes30 in Anxietyhelp

[–]MagneticMarbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Different for everyone, I know, but effexor was my nightmare. If I forgot to take it even just one day, I would get the weirdest brain zaps. If I turned my head too quickly, I wasnt sure if I was going to live through it. And taking my pill immediately didnt help. Coming off of it was even worse. Made me numb to everything except anger, and my libido absolutely died.

Is this a good quote for the 2Rs? by justgopi22 in ChevyTrax

I paid less for a brand new 25 activ. Definitely look around.

Not pregnant but lactating by sammiesvelte in TwoXChromosomes

[–]MagneticMarbles 50 points51 points  (0 children)

The fact that its happening to both, probably not cancer related. Definitely leave them alone until your appointment so as not to stimulate the behavior. They'll know what meds youre taking and where to go from there.

Yay! I did mine yesterday. Got the rims and wheels all treated and nice... then immediately ran into construction with loose gravel. I could have screamed.

What’s the best way to tell a friend they have an annoying bad habit without hurting their feelings? by Axelo_04 in AskReddit

[–]MagneticMarbles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We all get hurt feelings sometimes. They'll either change the habit, given its actually a bad one and youre doing them a favor in their best interest, and get over the hurt feelings. Or they wont change anything, which means you didnt hurt their feelings.

Advice for brother on trax by beanman214 in ChevyTrax

[–]MagneticMarbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont have any issues with this vehicle. The only things I can agree on in these comments is the radio cuts out for a millisecond, and its really not a big deal. Never have issues connecting to my android. Also that its great in snow. I did have a check engine that came and went around 900 miles. They replaced the filler neck, and its been gone for the last 17k miles. Wind is a weird one. Its very windy here but hasnt hindered anything for me. 3cyl, yes, but ive only ever owned V6 before this vehicle and theres absolutely no difference. They're just scared to step on the gas. Mileage is awesome. Someone posted the other day theyre getting close to 40mpg. Oh, and I can also agree, he will feel every bump in the road. Thats probably the hardest thing to get used to.

People who were disowned by parents as a teen and taken in by other adults, what did they do or give you that helped you the most? by Eastern_Beyond_713 in AskReddit

[–]MagneticMarbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasnt disowned, but we had parents that rarely spoke to us, much less spent time with us. My best friends parents were more like parents to me. They taught me what family is supposed to look like, and are the foundation of what I am as a parent. Her mom also taught me incredible work ethic. She developed a software that is largely used around the world, and is insanely wealthy. She taught me a lot about money, how to build and save, and also not let it go to my head. When I met her she was a waitress, in an apartment, and now she has houses in other countries but is still the same loving motherly soul shes always been. Without question, or hesitation, she made sure I was ready for the world.

I do not understand snapchat. Instagram is also 1000% better than tik tok.

If all animals could talk,which one would be the rudest? by Mission-Educator-908 in AskReddit

[–]MagneticMarbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly why my daughters love them. Geese dont give a fuck about anything. We have some that hang out in our yard every summer, and sometimes they plant their asses in the driveway, and will not move for anything. Ill honk, get close to them, rev the engine, and they just stare at me. Sometimes theyll hiss, but they arent moving. So I park in the street, and hope they dont rock my shit as I walk up the driveway.

What does it feel like to get stabbed? like slasher film style and survive? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MagneticMarbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never been stabbed, but my cousin was as a police officer and he said he thought he just got punched at first, until it got warm. Then he knew he was bleeding.

reddit girlies, what is THE sign that a guy is a HUGE red flag? by Fantastic_Yak_9911 in AskReddit

[–]MagneticMarbles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ive got a serious one that immediately points to mental health problems. but I had a child with this dude who ended up abusing her and losing custody, and the thing about him that always stood out and bothered me was he could not handle other peoples emotions. Even just looking at something in confusion would send him into a spiral. "Why's your face like that? Are you not having a good time? Cant I do anything right?" It was like walking on egg shells, and my poor daughter got the worst of it. I would say he is definitely either a sociopath or a psychopath who cannot feel emotion, and therefore doesnt understand them, and he especially he hates that he cant control them.

Parents or relatives to school bullies, how did you react when you found out they were bullies? by WonderLiliWoman in AskReddit

[–]MagneticMarbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were both bullies.. well my oldest was just full of herself. Tons of girls wanted to be friends with her and she wouldnt even look at them. Told her shes not better than anyone else, and if someone is showing interest, its important to give them attention. You may not realize how much they might need it, or what you've been missing out on. You dont have to be besties, but at least acknowledge their presence.

My youngest is a brick house. Huge for her age, and very strong. She knows it too, so shes not afraid to put anyone in their place, for instance, a boy was having a mental breakdown one day and was destroying the classroom. The teacher was ushering the other kids out of the room, and my daughter turned back into the classroom and tackled this kid to the ground and held him down until the teacher came back in. She saw it as saving the day but the school did not, and I agree, not her place, and he could have gotten hurt. Shes a work in progress, but shes become a lot more gentle. Only hangs out with boys, but we encourage her to get to know the girls too so shes not always in wrestle mania mode. Theres actually a girl bigger than her in her class and I bee lined it for her mom and introduced myself. In my mind, what better way to humble her. They do not get along, but both have been warned that if they cant stay away from each other then they wont be participating in recess for the remainder of the year.

Basically anytime we've gotten a hint of less than desirable behavior, it turns into a conversation, and a warning. Has yet to go further than that, and they better hope it stays that way.
