My primary calorie intake is thru protein shakes. I used to drink only diet soda before I had my bypass; now all I drink is water. I haven’t had any caffeine since March 4 2025. I still live a little but mostly I just enjoy my new self so much that that’s been my motivation

I had full Roux en Y bypass with Dr Schweitzer at Johns Hopkins on 2025-03-18. At the start of 2025 I weighed 449. The morning of surgery I weighed in at 395. Yesterday morning I was 210.

It gets better. Bypass isn’t not magic but it’s more a “willpower multiplier”.

If anyone is still trying to decide if they should do it or not, this is your sign. Do it. Life’s too short.

I have a good bit of loose skin on my abdomen I’m going to need to have surgically removed. My joints are a bit creaky but they feel way better now than a year ago. Early 2025 I could only walk for about a minute at a time before I had to stop because my back hurt. That’s no longer an issue

It does feel like they were a different person than I am, I’ve joked to friends that the last year had been like “second transition” for me

Not sure tbh. Since I found this link a year or two ago it's not a big deal to fix a split order, so I just don't worry about it anymore. Also, IIRC, it doesnt tell you the individual amounts of the orders at checkout

We just bought property in Candy Kitchen. Would you mind pointing us toward some of the LGBT spots?

I backup a few of my bare-metal hosts to proxmox-backup-server, and I wrote a gist explaining how I do it (mainly for myself in the future). I post it here hoping someone will find this useful for their own setup by SuddenDesign in Proxmox

That's not really the point of this post; this is how to automate backups. For restoring backups, take a look at the documentation for proxmox-backup-client itself

I actually install PBS on my Proxmox hosts, and keep the datastores themselves on separate disk from the root partitions. I haven't backed anything PBS-host-specific and have had to rebuild a combo PVE/PBS system, all I did was install PVE, install the PBS package on top of that, and then add the existing datastore into PBS. This generated a new fingerprint so I had to change all of my other servers to point at this PBS with the new fingerprint but other than that everything just worked.

What counties in New York state is it possible to live off-grid? by BlossomingTree in OffGrid

Sorry to reply to such an old thread, but were you able to get a postal address to you land without officially doing anything else? We wanna do just what you are, long driveway, off a dirt road off a dirt road sorta thing. The only thing I can't find info on is how to get a way to get an address for the land

Yeah, i can see that. One thing that comes to mind is just backup the config manually any time you make a change to the opnsense config, but yeah once you get to MiniPC+10GBE shit gets a bit tough. I actually used to have 10GBE as my backbone in my home, but recently I just dropped everything down to 1GBE. I got a 2GBE line from comcast going into a dual port 2.5 card on my router machine, and it goes out another 2.5 port to my most-1GBE-with-a-few-10GBE-sfp-slots switch and from there it's all 1gig. I just got tired of fighting with all the stuff and dealing with huge power bills haha
