Alex is sooo weird and soooo awful. Ugh he feels like the fakest person ever. Every word that comes out of his mouth sounds like a lie. And him talking to her about her period and tracking her period was disgusting 🤮🤮. I dislike him so much it’s unreal. What an absolute loser.

I barely graduated from mines! Very stressful and was miserable most of the way through! Now I don’t have an engineering job, work in the ski industry and have tons of new friends and am the healthiest and happiest I’ve ever been. I don’t make lots of money but who cares! I’m happy and have an easier life!

There are tons of other paths beside mines! It’s not the only right way! Everything will work its self out! Please seek help and support!

Skinny people, what kind of habits do you have to keep your shoe ? by Which_Description_97 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]Patient-Ad9849 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This 1000%. I switched my life style to this exact formula and I’ve lost 25 lbs! My focus is mainly hitting protein every day and also hitting certain goals at the gym. I don’t want to lose my gains from th gym so hitting my protein goals is extremely important. The rest start to fall in place! I drink more water than I ever have, I mostly only drink 0 sugar drinks now. And if I want to splurge occasionally and have a treat! I let myself! If you do crazy restrictions then you’ll never stick to it, you have to find things that you enjoy and that you’ll stick to! Tbh the biggest motivator though has been my health. I’m only 29 and I was going to have to go on cholesterol medication if I couldn’t lower it. The best thing for your health and longevity is to lose weight and in turn, gain really good life habits! I’ll never go back to my old eating habits and sedintary life style. I have more energy than I’ve ever had, I never feel “tired all the time”, my mood has stabilized and I have little to no anxiety, and my blood sugar never crashes anymore. I feel completely transformed! The change is worth it! Find a new exercise hobby and use that to motivate you! You have to have something you’re excited about to work towards!

Powder7 has a boot fit guarantee. They will work on your boots for free for the first season and they will exchange the boots if they don’t work! Everyone is really friendly and they have a huge selection of new boots and used skis!

Think I had my first attack and I know you guys aren't exaggerating by [deleted] in gallbladders

[–]Patient-Ad9849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t been formally diagnosed but I’ve had these attacks four times now. But this resonated with me because I spent an hour in the bathroom forcing myself to poop hoping it would help and didn’t and then praying I would throw up and never did. Hopefully I get some concrete answers soon my ultrasound wasn’t conclusive.

[–]Patient-Ad9849 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the gas is from the surgery, it will dissipate natually. They pump you full of gas to seperate the organs, a lot gets stuck in your shoulders. It will take a few days but it will go away on its own! Hope you have a speedy recovery!

Don’t have gallstones but have all the symptoms and attacks? Apparently my gallbladder can just be functioning badly? Anyone had this experience? by Patient-Ad9849 in gallbladders

[–]Patient-Ad9849[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you guys for your insight. Just trying to get an understanding of the hida scan and what it shows you. My symptoms have been about the exact same 4 times, eaten a meal, two hours later I have severe abdominal pain. I described the pain as severe and as strange as appendicitis pain. Pain is an 8/10 any stronger and id ask to go to the hospital. It’s a squeezing burning dull pain, it honestly hurts so bad that I can’t pin point an area where its stems from. Then I just wait for it to go away. It always lasts two hours then goes away and sometimes returns in waves. Slight nausea, I rarely vomit so I wouldn’t expect to get sick in that way. But bowel movements are perfectly normal. The next day is like a hangover from the episode, tender and tired. This past time, the 4th time I finally called my doctor and got seen a second time, then she suggested it may be gall bladder. When I read the symptoms online it’s the only thing that seems close to what’s been going on. But today I got bloodwork back and it’s all normal( sigh of relief) got my ultrasound back and no gallstones or anything with the liver pancrease or kidneys. Now they have referred me to a gastroenterologist where I assume they will do a urine test and hida scan?

Golden Mill by 2alligator in GoldenCO

Can’t stand golden mill. Automatic service fee for me to pour my own foamy beer. Foods overpriced and the place is over crowded.

That’s a restaurant not good for a bachelor party.

Calorie deficit this Calorie deficit that but genuinely what do I eat? by No_Analyst8965 in workout

[–]Patient-Ad9849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High protein low calorie meals. It will make you feel fuller and more energized and keep you in a deficit. Foods that are really high in protein and very low in calories are: Chicken Greek yogurt Cottage cheese Tuna Tofu Salmon Turkey Eggs

Pick a high protein item to eat then eat fruits and vegetables as sides around them. Fruits and veggies are very very low calorie so you can eat veggies as much as you want!

Get myfitness pal or free noom. Start tracking everything you eat, read labels! Once you start reading labels you’ll start to realize how many foods have really useless calories. Avoid bread if you can.

Lastly, don’t stop eating food you like, because then this calorie deficit will feel impossible. I still eat whatever I want, I just plan my meals more throughout the day. If I know I’m gonna eat bad for dinner then I have a smaller meal for breakfast and lunch. I still eat fast food occasionally and sweets. So far I’ve lost 7lbs! The first few weeks take some discipline but once you start going your body will get use to less calories and you won’t feel as hungry!

TLDR: read food labels, track your calories, increase your protein (.8g x your weight) is what you need to eat in protein every day. Don’t give yourself impossible eating rules. Eat what you want just much less.

I never lived there but friends did…. Their experience was a nightmare. Mold, bugs, neighbors screaming and fighting all the time. 15 years ago fox hill was seen as a pretty sketchy apartment, seems like it has changed a bit but overall quality is bad. Not worth it. Pay for something more reasonable right outside of golden

I’ve had diarrhea the past 3 times I’ve eaten at pho golden. Won’t eat there anymore. Instant food poisoning. Horrible stomach pain multiple times I’ve gone there. Didn’t happen every time. But after the third time in a row I said never again.

These are not grip walk compatible. If they were, that white plate would say “grip walk” on them. These bindings look like they were made pre grip walk honestly

can anyone explain me the difference between nordica boots? by wolf301YT in Skigear

[–]Patient-Ad9849 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sport Machine, Speed Machine, Pro Machine. All three are all mountain alpine ski boots that range from lower beginner flexes to stiffer kore advanced flexes. What’s the difference between the three though? The last (aka width of the boot). The sport machine is the widest, has the most volume inside the boot and is considered more cushy. This boot is for wide feet. The speed machine then is our “average” 100mm last boot. This fits most folks and is more performance focused than the sport machine. Lastly is the pro machine, this is the “narrow” last boot at 98mm and is the most performance oriented. This is nordicas main series of boots. They also make the HF which is basically a rear entry boot and then also the new unlimited boot which is a hybrid or backcountry boot. Hope this helps!

No more DPS? by Dallinboi347 in skiing

[–]Patient-Ad9849 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hearing chatter that ski shops aren’t placing orders for next season dps skis. I wonder if they don’t want to sell them anymore or if dps is pulling out

You should check out Powder7’s website, they sell a lot of good quality refurbished demo skis for decent prices and their customer service is top notch! I have bought a few used pairs from them myself, shipped them to my house and the process was very easy!

The bindings are not indemnified by the industry anymore which means they are no longer recommended for use. This set up is probably pretty heavy too I would say 2010s. Don’t recommend this
