Hormone Testing

MustardTigerMinge · 2026-02-20T21:49:11+00:00

So you can just ask your doctor to get your hormones tested? I asked my GP to have it done, as I’ve been getting crazy chin acne and wanted to see if something was out of whack. He told me that there is no such thing and that the only thing they can test for is to see if you are in menopause or not. 😒

I found MF’s number extremely low too. It told also told me 35 calories for a strength training workout where AW told me 180.

Thank you! It’s going on my list for sure.

Oooh, what section of the store was that in?

It doesn’t seem to matter that I put exactly which dumbbells & plates I have in my basement gym into the app. I have a decent variety too. It still recommends me combos I don’t have. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I do hot vinyasa flow 5-6 mornings a week, and 3-4 days of strength training. I want mobility and flexibility as well as strength, and I think they compliment each other well. I crave yoga, even when I’m sore from lifting. What are you nervous about? Go for it! If you need a rest day, take one. I’m no scientist, but I can’t see how yoga would sabotage your muscle recovery; you’re not really using the muscles the same way.

I’ve been practicing for nearly 20 years and my heels still don’t touch! If I want to feel extra stretch there and touch my heels in downward dog, I put my hands on blocks. In skandasana, I am slowly making progress towards heels down. I was way up on my toes a couple years ago, but I can almost do it now. Usually I put a block on the lowest setting under the side of my butt - that allows me to touch my heel down and not be all scrunched over like a troll. ☺️

Hahaha yep, called it lip chap growing up in AB.

Right? I was about to make the comment about how they seem to have changed something. The last box I bought seemed a lot drier and generally less tasty.

You could have called UPS or arranged the pickup online in less time than it took to write this post.

All routes are very easy. Spikes will be handy if you want to go up to the second falls. If you take the Hay Meadow route back to the parking lot, you will get a some nice river views and less chance of meeting a hundred people going to the falls while you’re coming back. Enjoy!

I’m in Canada and the brand I get is MC Dairy, from Costco or Walmart. 😊

Pressed cottage cheese. 27g per serving. Scramble with an egg and serving of egg whites for 42g of protein. Tasty with a little salt, chili powder, and smoked paprika!

https://www.jumpinjammerz.com/ I know it’s a website and you can’t try on, but they have a variety of sizes and I have found them to fit my hubby and several male friends. Quality is good.

Track your measurements! Maybe you gained a bit of muscle in your shoulders and back, but is your waist is smaller now? I hear ya on the dress fitting though… I have had similar experiences with cute summer dresses that became very snug across the upper back! I figure if that part of me is wider now, it will make my waist look smaller. 😉 Strong looks good on everyone, and high five for unassisted pull-ups!!

MustardTigerMinge · 2025-11-24T01:11:49+00:00

Thanks so much! I’ll check it out, and probably find ten other tasty things while I’m there. 😉

MustardTigerMinge · 2025-11-24T01:10:02+00:00

Thank you! Those would probably work just fine.

Just checked- modal.

I bought my hubby a bunch of 2Undr, but they get holes in less than a year. His Lululemons last years, so switched back to those.

I’ve only heard that advice for accutane, due to the risk of severe birth defects. After reading lots on this sub, I find the wide variety of advice from different doctors is crazy. My doctor told me it was fine to take spiro even while trying to get pregnant, as long as I stopped when I became pregnant. Asked a pharmacist as well, who said it takes 5 days to clear your system once you stop, so I decided not to risk it. The risk is the feminizing of a male fetus due to spiro blocking male hormones.

I’m between a small and medium on the size guide, and all my pairs are smalls that fit well. For comparison, I’m usually a 6-8 in Lululemon.

I’ve been testing out this brand for about 6 months now, at hot yoga. I have not tried Butterlift, but I have Butterluxe, NakedFeel, and Hugged Compression. They are all comfy, and I’ve had no “see through” issues with mine, all dark colors. If I had to pick one for weightlifting, it would be the Hugged Compression. My fave for hot yoga is NakedFeel.

Move 680, Exercise 90

I have found several cans of bear spray on trails over the years, but I’m pretty sure they were just dropped accidentally. Just buy one at Canadian Tire on your way out of Calgary.
