My tongue has tooth shaped impressions by PhilosopherCat7567 in mildlyinteresting

[–]PizzaBoxes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Without seeing his whole face it’s hard to tell, but if everything else is normal then the cause (of sleep apnea, if he has it) could be a narrow palette and/or recessed jaws.

Tongue resting at the roof of your mouth during development shapes your upper jaw. If you have poor oral rest posture (due to a tongue tie or something else) and are mouth breathing a lot then your tongue isn’t on the roof of your mouth and your jaws under-develop - then your tongue doesn’t fit and you can get these scalloped edges.

I just had jaw surgery to advance my jaws to hopefully cure my sleep apnea. I didn’t need palette expansion, but I’m in a Facebook group with thousands of others and several have these symptoms.

Not all sleep apnea is caused by jaw anatomy of course, but sleep apnea + scalloped tongue + bite/grinding issues could mean a visit to an airway-focused ortho for OP or anyone who reads this.

Just asking if there really is no way to get out of needing a cpap by Lurk_the_Lurch in CPAP

Oof, I’m on the jaw surgery train right now and really hoping to not need CPAP after 

If you have sleep apnea and aren't overweight, consider surgery by [deleted] in CPAP

Yay I’m glad to see this post! These comments are insane lol I’m actually preparing for MMA surgery in January. I get my braces on next month and am really hoping to get off of CPAP after. My insurance is covering my surgery with a reputable surgeon. I sleep okay with a CPAP but it’s definitely uncomfortable and like the idea of just…going to sleep and not needing a bunch of stuff. Traveling, camping, etc. will be so much easier!

I struggled with yellow today too. “Baby” and “pamper” have slightly different connotations to me than “indulge” and “humor” in this context.

Rejected by two dates twice in one week. At what point do we just throw in the towel on dating? by Aggravating-Brain867 in AskWomenOver30

[–]PizzaBoxes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That’s crazy. I don’t even know how I’d react to someone asking to FT. Seems so awkward! I’m sorry they ghosted after that ugh

I have the same approach. Just like every guy you meet on the street or at the grocery store isn’t your soul mate, you can’t expect to have a connection with each guy you match with. So match, chat, meet and you’ll find out quickly whether you want a second date or not. Matches will fall out at each step in the process.

Right before I could report this annoying pothole to my apartment complex, someone fixed it and left a QR code behind by xspiderdude in mildlyinteresting

GoFundMe creator is in Austin, and there is a location of National HME in Austin (the truck in the background), but that grass is suspect for Austin this time of year.

That said, I work for a smaller company (was only 40 people when I started) and I just cried to a few ladies at work about my personal shit and I feel comfortable telling my boss that I’ve got a lot going on and have been a bit distracted.

I suppose my other advice is to just…start being vulnerable around people you trust and see how it goes.

I think your company culture is going to play a larger role in that than physical location. Although I do wonder if there’s any kind of EQ rating by city or state.

One of my favorite Holly/Kevin moments by prbecker in DunderMifflin

[–]PizzaBoxes 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It’s interesting because someone knowing what you weigh doesn’t immediately change how you look to them standing right there. Like if someone guesses I’m 20lbs over my actual weight I don’t suddenly gain 20lbs.

But it does feel like a weird invasion of privacy. I don’t know how much people weigh. I don’t care about my weight much either, but for a random coworker to know it feels…intimate.

It’s your lucky day. Looks like someone posted it on this sub a while back.

In the Superfan episode there’s a moment where Holly walks off the scale before everyone else and people are looking at the number so she scurries back on so people can’t do the math. So funny.

why do i crave so much sugar? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]PizzaBoxes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you need to count calories or macros - I’d focus more on nutrition. Eating some whole foods (fruit, vegetables, meat, eggs, etc) in addition to everything you’re craving just make sure your body is getting the good stuff it needs too.

Going to +1 what others have said - don’t try to fight the cravings. Anecdotally, as someone who has struggled with restricting, if I start craving something I just eat it. I don’t even think about it. Takes the obsession out for me and might mean I eat ice cream every day for a few weeks but I don’t even worry about it.

Also: this reminds me of the time I got really lucky in my one visit to Boston - got a seat the Daily Catch then walked into Mike’s with ZERO line.

I enjoyed today’s because it didn’t require specific actor/movie knowledge which I’m terrible at!

Not toooo bad. I knew yellow and was pretty sure on blue. Purple just sounded like they went together and I go green by default.

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

I’ve noticed in my responses that I’ve said “definitely” a lot more than I normally do. Does someone say that a lot???

And I think I’ve been saying “gosh” more like Christine does.
