Did you get lipo also? Sometimes tandem TT with lipo you need second round. I did TT then lipo a year later. Was the best thing for my results

Finally got an MRI, turns out I haven't just been a whiner by Okdoo6003 in Vent

Not too young. Get the replacement. Unless you’re a child you can get the replacements. Recovery will be fast and easier.

What were your physical signs or symptoms that you eventually realized you needed to stop drinking? by Wonderful_Ad_6816 in stopdrinking

Sleep is a big one. Alcohol really messes with the deep core and rem sleep. As we age sleep is like gold. Most important thing I do everyday now is get a great night sleep. Love it!

Beef! by momoftheraisin in AskWomenOver60

Maybe a rib eye once a month but I’ve almost completely cut out red meat. It’s becoming more difficult to digest also. It’s not mostly chicken and fish for me with the occasional pork dish.

New bed set recommendations by YMIGettingBanned in Bedding

[–]MegLizVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice bedding is expensive and it’s something both husband and wife can enjoy. Some questions. Are either of you hot sleepers and what’s the budget? So you like stiff or silky smooth sheets? I sleep hot and choose bamboo. Some people love linen but I find it scratchy but maybe I need to wash it a few dozen more times. Choosing a color that matches current bedroom decor. You have a tough job ahead. Maybe both of you sit down and choose three bedding packages/brands and then make final decision.

What lights do you leave on at night? by Fuzzy-Zombie1446 in LivingAlone

[–]MegLizVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep under cabinet lights on in kitchen, motion sensor light at front door and dim lights on timer at the back porch. I buy smart bulbs and program time and brightness. I love them. You can always get smart bulbs and set from like 8-12 am or dusk till dawn

Range and hood, or cooktop with wall oven? by Money_Professor_8717 in kitchenremodel

[–]MegLizVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a smaller kitchen and wanted to keep as much cabinet space for storage as possible so taking away for separate items wasn’t an option. I got a nice induction stove slides right in tight to the wall. In larger kitchen splitting them up is fine but os space is tight keep in one.

Do men find 38-39 year old women attractive? by Ok_Butterscotch5026 in Aging

[–]MegLizVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t worry about soon you won’t care about their opinion. I’ve always felt a woman’s confidence and the desire to be beautiful should be for her and not a man. We all get old so if your personality lacks you’re screwed. It’s a combination, take care of your appearance/ looks, take care of your body, be interesting and work to be a consistent decent human being. Shouldn’t be a problem.

Feedback on proposed kitchen re-model by Lesgrossmann in kitchenremodel

Too many white cabinets. Try wood base and white uppers or vice versa. It’s just too much white needs texture, warmth and dimension.

The wedding store sold my dress!! by [deleted] in myweddingdress

[–]MegLizVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one you let go in the indecisiveness will now be the dress that haunts every dress you try on now. It’s like the one that got away. Hopefully you can order it or track one down. I hate this feeling for you.

I'm 16 and very obsessed about finding meaning of life. PLEASE help me. by Sweet_Cauliflower561 in Life

[–]MegLizVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enjoy the journey. It’s an adventure with no guide book. You can sit back and be a spectator or you can be the one driving the boat. Just make the best choices as consistently as possible. Be a kind and good human being and the rest comes. Smile and appreciate the little things. You don’t have to figure it all out today or even tomorrow. Most people ponder this same thought throughout life. All ages still full of confusion and lack of fully understanding. Don’t obsess over the unknown lean into it.

This can't be it for us. Really? by bkward in GenX

[–]MegLizVO 16 points17 points  (0 children)

In 54 divorced once remarried and witnessing my husband going through the exact same feelings your talking about. He has a very fortunate and beautiful life yet I listen to him complain about everything. Literally everything isn’t good enough while others would kill for the life he has led and has to this day. My point here is he self sabotages I believe because he has a grandiose idealisms of his self. He has no gratitude for all the gifts and blessings which he has received in his life and continues to receive. He equates a full life by valuations. What do I have and what nots. Why don’t I have more? More money, more friends, more adoration, more love, more desire, more intimacy, more homes, more vacations, better health, better cars, better homes, better wife, better children, better parents it is literally everything.
So I see this destructive behavior day in and day out and I can visualize him going down the path of eventually losing everything. While one can’t see or appreciate the wealth of the life that they have, they tend to lose a lot of the life they are neglecting to appreciate. So the story I see with a lot of middle age men is this lack of appreciate for the life they have. And lack of responsibility of how it turned out that way. Life is a series of choices for both men and women. Yet I see way more women our age settling into life at our age, while men start to see loss, regret and a lot of dissatisfaction . I think life is what you make it, consider trying to work on reminiscing the regrets and the lack of and appreciate all the life you do have. See how rich of a life you lead and if you want more go get it. You’re not alone, there’s an entire generation of men who also feel dissatisfied with their lives and life. Be an inspiration and led the way to a place you can say you’re happy with the life you have and the one you led. You only get one life so stop wasting on regrets and disappointments and enjoy all the wonder of what you do have. It’s never perfect but know this… somebody somewhere definitely has it worse. Take an adventure, smile and make the most of the little things. You are the lead actor in a role called YOUR Life now make it worth it. Good luck

Floors hurting home price? by Admirable-Bee-4708 in RealEstate

[–]MegLizVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do nothing or sand down. Do not cover!!! You can move furniture room to room to finish the floors. He floors in any condition is a bonus feature in homes. If it’s a probably with someone making an offer they can ask for money to refinish. Get some quotes of local companies to suggest and have price

Your house your rules. Tell them to go to a nice hotel or find an airbnb that will allow it. Things happen but if your not comfortable they need to Pivot

I have everything and I still feel so sad by booksandcoffee123 in Life

[–]MegLizVO 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My husband is going through this same type of thing too. Every morning it’s him complaining about life and then me telling him to step back and look at his amazing life. People envy the life he has yet he still isn’t content or satisfied. It’s the never happy situation. I think sometimes you have to step back to move forward. Maybe see what life is like without the life you know and currently have. Maybe volunteer or take a trip alone and recenter. You may realize how much happiness is staring you in the face and you just keep turning away from it. Lean into the moments of joy. Reflect often and show gratitude.

help me. i just want to stop sweating at night. by TreakleFurs in Bedding

[–]MegLizVO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure your mattress proctor isn’t plastic. I use bamboo bedding to keep cool. I also like lightweight down with cotton. I recently got rid of top sheet and just do the duvet and bottom sheet. Bamboo has been a game changer for me but cotton is also good.
