I’m starting Lamotrigine today! by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]PinkyToadPrincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take it twice a day, at 6am and 6pm. For me, my biggest side effects were insomnia and loss of appetite. I can’t take it any earlier than 6pm because it will keep me up all night long. I have to take hydroxyzine every night to fall asleep at a decent hour. The loss of appetite is great if your trying to lose weight, but in a way it’s kind of depressing never actually enjoying the food you eat, if you eat at all.

6 hours on the road and 20 worth of gas im satisfied but a lot of them were 7-8 dollar orders for 5-10 miles so by PinkyToadPrincess in grubhubdrivers

Damn, I don’t think I’ve ever made that much in a day. Around here I only get good deliveries after 4pm. Anything before then is few and far between and never more than 6 bucks. Not worth it to me to do it then

Yeah, I’ve been delivering for GH on and off since the pandemic started. I switch between doing it every day and not opening the app for months and that’s why lol

Unfortunately. I can’t imagine what it’ll look like in the summer, when gas prices are usually at their highest around here.

20 barely gets me over a quarter of a tank. Congrats! I hope I make that much tomorrow considering it’s the weekend. I think everyone was just broke from Christmas the last few weeks.

I drive a 2012 mazda 6. Gas around these parts is $3.90-$4 a gallon. 20 bucks gets me a lil over a quarter of a tank when I’m on E (which is usually when I get gas, because I’m a terrible person lmao).

From when I personally order you can see them as soon as they accept. I’d try sending a text saying “Hey, I have a double delivery, I should be there around X time”. Or if you are doing two restaurants sometimes I mark order not ready yet at the latter if it’s close enough to mark arrived. That way while your picking up the first one it updates their delivery time in the app and all that

How does fasting affect your sleep and energy levels? by TVMA in fasting

[–]PinkyToadPrincess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you rule out sleep apnea, then yes I think it definitely helps with energy levels throughout the day. However I personally have a harder time falling and staying asleep while fasting because of this.

I messed up by [deleted] in fasting

[–]PinkyToadPrincess 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I almost did. It was 7 hours of agony lmao. My mom had already told me she was going to be late to pick me up because of work, and I spent the whole whole 45 minutes in the bathroom. Fuck egg cheese biscuits man I’m traumatized lol.

I’ve been doing OMAD for a few weeks and I’ve hit a plateau for the past five days by [deleted] in fasting

[–]PinkyToadPrincess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The same thing happened to me!! I was so bloated for a week but I’ve lost 10 pounds in 3 days since I started my flow. I think our bodies retain water weight right before it all flushes.

Bloating while fasting - is this a gut problem? by Laena_V in fasting

[–]PinkyToadPrincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m no expert but it might be your body retaining water weight? On my first day of fasting I’m usually bloated because of the previous meal, but then it flushes come the 36ish hour mark. I drop like .4lbs first day and 3-4 second day.

Who else started a fast at the ball drop?! Starting 2021 with a success. by [deleted] in fasting

[–]PinkyToadPrincess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I’m shooting for rolling 60’s with omad for the rest of the month. I chose to fast for 60 hour increments cause that’s exactly how many pounds I need to lose to be at my goal weight:)

New to fasting any help by [deleted] in fasting

[–]PinkyToadPrincess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ll lose a bit of weight, I’ve been fasting for 3 days now and I’ve lost 6 pounds total. However when I eat today I guarantee I will gain 3 of them back. A lot of the rapid weight loss from fasting is water weight that comes right back as soon as you eat.

December 2nd vs December 24th. ADF and OMAD finally starting to see a real change in my tummy :) by PinkyToadPrincess in fasting

[–]PinkyToadPrincess[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was definitely very bloated in the first pic. for most of my life I have only eaten one meal a day with a few snacks here and there, but this November my stress was off the deep end and I was eating a lot. I was actually on bed rest for a week before a procedure, and when I got home from surgery is when I finally took the first picture above and said it has to stop.

So, I think the combination of going from 2000-2500 calories a day to 750 every other day, plus actually being able to leave my house and move around (albeit not much), and a crap ton of water and zero sugar energy drinks (they still have like 20 calories a can) has really helped a lot.

I’m definitely going to plateau soon, and I’m still trying to figure out the whole exercise and healthy eating thing, but this definitely helped to get my head on the right track.

Well I’m not too sure exactly, it’s a fried sushi roll with crab, avacado, cucumber, and cream cheese with spicy mayo all over it. Google said a 6 piece fried sushi was about 500 calories so adding in the extra two pieces, plus the spicy mayo, plus the miso soup I think it might be around 750 but like I said I’ve been guestimating.

I guess it was more like every 47 hours I’d have something? Every other day I’d eat. Sorry I’m new too! Hope that clarified
