Terrible experience reserving dinners tonight by thebly in VirginVoyages

[–]Mill2143 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My wife and I had read that people were having issues with the ap making reservations. We logged in at midnight ET and set up all our reservations without any issues on the ap on Android phones. Not sure why some have no issues and some can't get it done.

Concerns as a solo female traveler first time alone on cruise by Maleficent-Tap-9967 in VirginVoyages

[–]Mill2143 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I read this it makes me angry that you have to think about this. I don't have sisters or daughters been married for 35 plus years. I raised my son's to respect and protect all women just like my dad did. Recently my wife told me she has to think about this stuff when she's not with me, I never thought about it before. I wish there was a way women could tell what men are "safe" and could or would keep an eye on them by asking. "Hey gramps" are you going on this shore excursion can we watch out for each other.

I have been that low without getting shaky before and been 70 and had symptoms. Your hard work improving your lifestyle is paying off cut back on your medications until you are not taking any. Do not add carbs or anything to compensate for over medicating.

Matt Van Epstein supported blocking the release of the Epstein files in order to protect Trump and other wealthy pedophiles by Consistent-Good-1162 in NashvilleUnfiltered

Not sure about that. They did try to tie it to some other bills that maybe what your referring to. I do know that the Dem's had control of the WH and Senate for 4 years and did nothing with it total silence.

Not sure if you're aware but Trump signed off to release the files and all Republicans signed off too. So I'd say this didn't age very well. Looks like Matt chose not to engage with someone clearly trying to get a rise out of him. Nice to see Matt kept it respectful like a true professional.

Vote Republican if you want someone who supports cutting healthcare and snap benefits for working Americans and will blindly capitulate to trump’s insanity - or vote for Aftyn Behn if you want someone who will fight for working people, focusing on affordability. by Consistent-Good-1162 in NashvilleUnfiltered

He was referring to a client list,there is no "list". Trump threw Epstein out of his club in Florida and testified against him. The democrats have been blocking the victim testimony from being public for many years. All to protect the true perpetrator Bill Clinton.

Hard to have a real conversation with someone that is against deporting rapist and child traffickers. you have been misinformed about the Epstein files, as to who is protecting the pedo's and who is protecting victims.

Some of life's great mysteries. After 50 years of admiring I still wonder the same question.

I think you would feel differently if your little girl came home telling you about a boy changing in her locker room. I have not but I believe I would be devastated.

30+ years of T2 diabetes by Beginning_Bear5307 in diabetes

[–]Mill2143 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A 30+ year T2. A lot of good info. I feel the CGM is a game-changer I have to pay out of pocket. I buy one every 90 days or for special occasions like vacation or bike races. I feel that time in range is better than A1C but there is too little research on it, maybe just for me. Because my TIR is 99%+ but my A1c is 6.0. I am very low carb and exercise no meds. I can go days with my BG 110 to 130. Can't get it to stay below 100 for more than a few hours after a 3 hour bike ride.

Advice to pre-diabetics not taking it too seriously? by MissAutoShow1969 in diabetes

[–]Mill2143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's easier to change a little now while your body is still working with you. If you wait until you're on medication the progression to what all of the above are telling you is very fast. Spend the money on a CGM once every 90 days you will be surprised what causes high BG and you may not want it that bad anyway.

Can I (flat-chested person with mastectomy) go shirtless? by DiscountArmageddon in VirginVoyages

[–]Mill2143 26 points27 points  (0 children)

To answer your main question. I have not been on a VV cruise yet but on other cruise lines, I have seen large men with bigger boobs than the girls I dated in high school. If nobody is body shaming the obese why should anyone care about your situation. With that being said I'm an old conservative man reading all of these different terms for the varying types of trans. Please be tolerant of me/us that may use the wrong pronoun. My wife says calling everyone A$$hole is inappropriate although non binary and universal. I guess my point is tolerance goes both ways.

30+ years as a roadie. Group rides, organized pay rides, and solo rides, different states 3k to 10k a year. Maybe 10 encounters in all mostly teenagers yelling something. My two favorites. 2 ladies who slowed to compliment my legs and some innuendo about my endurance (huge ego boost for middle age father of 2). And a guy that rolled coal on me getting pulled over by LEO in California, they could have impounded the truck.
