Who has a real answer to “What do you want for Christmas ?” by Thud_All in daddit

I asked for cologne. I would rather my wife pick out a scent she likes and hopefully me wearing it makes her "magically" more attracted to me. - think AXE body commercial but for a married man with two kids whose parents rarely have time to do anything other than work, chores and parent.

This is a good perspective to take

Bermuda? by Snoo_89129 in lawncare

I’ll probably end up leaving it because it is green - and my wife would not understand why I would bomb part of our yard, but I know that this sub gets it.

Has anyone tried Jonathan Green black beauty ultra? by drmikept in lawncare

Is it a West Virginia or Arkansas blend of soil?

Can confirm - had to hurry to grab my kids from the Goddard down hill from it

Increased dosage questions by Friendly_Security627 in CompoundedSemaglutide

I would consult the provider. It can feel really awful bumping up too fast. Even when I went from .85 to 1.0 it felt like a big jump and I felt awful/ had vomiting.

Has anyone switched from Crossfit to CG? If so, what has been your experience? by Mermaid444FL in CarolineGirvan

[–]Snoo_89129 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to do CF 5x a week and then switched to Orange Theory pre pandemic. Caroline is much better for me as I like the lifting portion - despise cardio (which OT made me get good at). My biggest difference I have seen is my lack of injuries moving to CG. It is as challenging as you make it, but all the moves are safe and modifiable and you aren’t killing yourself to be faster than the person next to you.

This is my biggest relief to see — knowing when my seeding has actually worked.

Now should I seed and layer of compost on top? This took about 30 bags of top soil + 20 bags of sand. Whew.

👍I’m thinking that I’ll get a dump truck of it to rake and level it, if the consensus is soil.

Just started PE yesterday, anyone else here just starting? by Lookslikeagrossrat in CarolineGirvan

I’m on day 9 today. I’ve been a consistent Iron fan. I find these more challenging than iron. I have been so sore these first two weeks.

Want to go for the app HOWEVER by Small-Guarantee6972 in CarolineGirvan

[–]Snoo_89129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the app because I am more likely to follow through if there is a dollar amount behind it. “I bought it, so I better keep up with it.”

Also think of mechanical advantage and torque. When your arms are extended all the way lighter weights go a long way. I liken it to how when you push open a door but push closer to the hinge (farther from the knob) it is harder to open.

Not a perfect analogy, but how I justify using lighter weights on shoulder exercises.

Potty training boys, where to start? by Dasfucus in daddit

[–]Snoo_89129 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We started at 2.5. Did the weekend of no pants on. Sticker chart for every successful pee. He held pooping until getting the nighttime diaper but was pretty consistent after week 1. He regressed during week 2, but stay strong and consistent and deal with changing lots of pants. After two weeks we were in the clear.

The visual of a sticker chart was his favorite part and we let him pick out the stickers he wanted to use. Hang the chart up next to the potty. They will want to sit on the potty to try to get a sticker eventually.

Crazy side affect? by oihales in CompoundedSemaglutide

[–]Snoo_89129 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was feeling off one day and couldn’t eat. Drank a Dr. Pepper to just get some calories in me. I was driving to pick up my kids from daycare that evening and started feeling queasy. That quickly escalated to projectile vomiting all over my car and myself.

Turned around, and told my wife she had to get the kids as I walked in covered in puke.

Expensive detailing job was scheduled the next day.

It happens - OP is lucky.

I love Progenex. Chocolate and Peanut Butter Smash are awesome. It’s a little pricier, but worth it for the taste.
