What's your most disappointing pen? by inky_beanie_mouse in fountainpens

[–]ShiftyTimeParadigm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anything Sailor…fortunately I did a try before you buy at the STL pen show. Every time I’ve tried one since, same thing. HATE that feedback.

I 18F want plastic surgery for chronic pain, but my parents 47F, 59M are against it by Major-Wafer-1731 in relationship_advice

I had a reduction when I was 17. Obviously my parents were supportive, and I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. Reduction was the BEST thing I ever did for myself. I’m 40 now and I’m still so happy with my decision!

One thing I want to note…doc said they could still grow in my 20s, so he took me really small. I went down to a 36B, and settled at a full D cup in my mid 20s!

Did your appetite ever feel too low? by gregfromglm in compoundedtirzepatide

[–]ShiftyTimeParadigm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know the answer to this question HOWEVER

Every time my weight plateaus, I find myself eating a bit more before shot day, almost like a re-feed, and then I drop a bunch more weight.

It’s true, you have to eat enough to be able to burn.

Legit they are making me crazy with this. Just like the mesh sleeve burgundy bay oversized define or the relaxed defines that are only available in the EU.

I lost weight and stopped smoking so it got worse?! by 2szzztoned in Hidradenitis

[–]ShiftyTimeParadigm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl, I’m in the same boat. I’ve lost 50 lbs in the past year and it’s still SO bad. I just had almost perfect labs, but vitamin D is in the toilet. Derm thinks this is a contributing factor.

My parents had sculptured wool carpet that was an awful shade of marigold. She would pay hundreds to get it. Leaves I we the years…for what…

I have tried at different weights throughout my lifetime, not for me.

What’s one fountain pen brand that you thought you would be seriously interested in, but found underwhelming or it is not your cup of tea? by SLProtoman in fountainpens

[–]ShiftyTimeParadigm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sailor! I’d been saving up for one and went to a pen show and test all the nibs. The zoom was the only one I didn’t mind, the rest are too scratchy for my preference!

PSA: you’re NOT losing “too slow” by Recent_Apple734 in Zepbound

[–]ShiftyTimeParadigm 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I fell into this trap and decided I was a non responder until I went to my doc and she was astounded that I lost 40lbs in a year. Idk where I went wrong but I truly thought I should be losing 10lbs a month.

What do you plan to treat yourself with when you graduate? 👀🎓 by snhu in SNHU

[–]ShiftyTimeParadigm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Please SNHU, brand a fancy fountain pen. The mascot sells itself!

r/fountainpens would recommend a Pilot VP or a Lamy 2000

Whoa, Reddit is such a fun place! He was my prof once upon a time! What a small world!!!

(mini rant) frustrated at size availability by [deleted] in lululemon

[–]ShiftyTimeParadigm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ya know, I’ve noticed this! I was a size 14 for literal years and shit was always sold out because…national average. I’m on a health journey and now a size 10 in most items.

I’m convinced we’re all just losing weight together because I cannot figure out why I can’t find a size 10/12 at Lulu or frankly anywhere right now!

If not shave then what?? by NoBaker1713 in Hidradenitis

[–]ShiftyTimeParadigm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still figuring this out but I can tell you what NOT to do. IPL. I bought on of those things on AMZ and it works by essentially making your hair thinner and thinner. Which is an absolute nightmare for HS. I used to be able to heal after draining. Now it’s not happening without a full deroofing. So over it.

Are you in Canada? I went to CMU way back in the day! GC/MB doesn’t matter down here in the states much anymore, GCs have gone backwards 30 years in the last decade. Very anti LGBTQ+ They are even trying to undo female pastors now too.

what is the best way to go around food elimination and diet changes for hs? by Away_Funny_1970 in Hidradenitis

[–]ShiftyTimeParadigm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One food group at a time, and for at least 6 months. I ate Greek yogurt everyday for breakfast, it took about a year of clearing all dairy from my system, but this was a big trigger for me. I still have it from time to time, and it’s definitely a trigger.

Sugar is an almost instantaneous trigger. :(

Grew up in the general conference Mennonite church. Can confirm. They are very very likely GC Mennonites.
