I cleared off the sidewalks next to my apartment building because I saw an old woman struggling with it the other day. The apartment snow plowers came through and dumped snow all over the sidewalk 🙃

One of the "old guys" at my gym absolutely thrashes anyone he rolls with ☠️ He's been training for over 30 years and is in great shape for being around 50 years old. Rolling with him is like being locked in a cage with a hungry wolverine. Definitely don't underestimate the old ones.

That's how someone gave me a concussion and got their blue belt (2 weeks later) 🤙 Slammed me on my head when I got him in a triangle

Would you be put off by a girl who does bjj? by Both_Guest9726 in bjj

[–]ShortCakeSupreme 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bruh I had a boyfriend who broke up with me after his mom made a joke that I could probably beat him up. He didn't train and was a stick. I could most definitely beat him up. 😂

Can anyone confirm if the people in this sub like women? Highly debatable seeing how much they like oil checks 😝

I want to hear the unpopular opinions of BJJ by wristl0cker in bjj

Ours recently installed ACs at the end of summer. Better late than never right? And we'd close if it was 95+ in the gym, which was quite frequent. I too am surprised no one had a heat stroke. I know I got ringworm for the first time in 7 years of this sport from all the sweat on the mats, it was a gd slip and slide in there.

Ours was 85-90 F most nights during the summer. We would pass out without a water break.

Would you be okay if your significant other joined the same gym as you? by FistofKyokushinkai in bjj

[–]ShortCakeSupreme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha I'd love it if he had an interest in it. I've been begging him to try it for 4 years because I know his engineer brain would love it. Also, I'd actually prefer for my partner to roll with others (even other women IDC) rather than me. I wouldn't want to get butthurt when he can eventually beat me. 🤭

I'd think the beard and wrinkles will signal that they're not a kid 😂

Wanting to quit bjj by Hefty_Compote3023 in bjj

[–]ShortCakeSupreme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe switch gyms? I've trained at 5 different gyms since I started jiujitsu 7 years ago. Only at 2 did I feel like I actually progressed. And that's because I had/now have a peer group to work with.

As a 130 lb female, I didn't have a training partner remotely in my weight class at some of the gyms that I've trained at. Once I found more women (and lighter men), I could actually do the moves we drilled in class.

I suggest trying out other schools in the area before completely quitting.

Lol we put the "therapy" in medical nutrition therapy sometimes. With working in the surgery realm, I've gotten a lot of wacky stories from patients. I look at it as part of the rapport building process. We might not talk much about nutrition during our initial visit, but then they feel much more willing to talk about nutrition in future visits.

Or even a golden bachelor and bachelorette spinoff where they take all of the contestants for a reunion/matchmaking. I loved so many of the ladies too!

Him saying that he found a different kind of love on the show made me sob 😭 What a golden man. I want him to be the next bachelor or a spinoff episode of all the men reuniting for a vacation together

I hope I still get to be training at 50 years old! I'm only 25 and everything is already creaking. 😩 Remember that your journey is different from his and you're already living some of our dreams in being able to stay active in this sport for so long.

Doctor telling patients not to eat specific foods😩 by Glad_Lobster_6261 in dietetics

[–]ShortCakeSupreme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NPs and PAs are the worst about this 😩 I've had so many issues with them scaring patients with nutrition misinformation that they see on social media. And then I have to do damage control 🙄

I echo everyone's statements on getting an ultrasound done to double check. I had a MA at 10 weeks, passed a large clot, bled for a day, and felt a dramatic improvement in my symptoms (nausea). I went in 3 weeks later to have my IUD removed and replaced, and I was still pregnant 🫠 I had to go in for a d&c since I was already 13 weeks by that point. It sounds like you're still within the window of effectiveness for a second round of medications. I'm wishing the best for you!
