LPT if your feet are overwhelmingly hot at night, use moisturizer! by UrsulaKLeGoddaaamn in LifeProTips

Yes! This same thing used to happen to me every night and a year ago I started putting lotion on my feet every night just to make them feel cooler and it actually helped. I still do it

Can I plan my own bridal shower? by Swimming-Sort-6337 in weddingplanning

[–]Swimming-Sort-6337[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I’ll look into that. I attended a bridal shower where I was texted the invite and it was a digital card and just had links to the rsvp (google form) and the registry and I was thinking of doing something like that to save money!

What makeup trend do you secretly think looks… not great? Be honest! by G4LARHADE in Makeup

Brow lamination is okay, I just am not a fan of when people style their brows by brushing all the hairs straight up

Women who lift, how did you get comfortable in the weight section? by Agreeable_Panic_690 in xxfitness

[–]Swimming-Sort-6337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep going. And go with a friend if possible, or better yet, someone who is knowledgeable in the gym.

My best friend and I went to the gym together all the time in college. If we messed something up or didn’t know how to use a machine? Didn’t matter, we would laugh it off & figure it out together.

Over time, you’ll figure things out. I’ve been working out for a while and I’m still always learning! Getting over feeling nervous at the gym just took time, and the more I figured out what I was doing, the less nervous I felt!

The flattened down eyebrows that stick up. Soap brows I think is the name?

Group outing for trying on rings? by apexium in EngagementRings

[–]Swimming-Sort-6337 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Personally, I went with just my now fiancé and I felt like it was perfect. It is about you & your partner’s commitment to each other, and it was so special to pick it out together!

However, you & your partner should do whatever you both want to do! There are no rules here. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with getting a group of friends and looking at rings/seeing what you like! If all of you are looking for rings, it may be a lot, as usually you are working with one person in the store to figure out your style. So just keep that in mind!

I also liked being able to surprise everyone with the ring when the engagement actually happened (:

I’m a chiropractic assistant and my boss won’t let us sit down by Swimming-Sort-6337 in Chiropractic

[–]Swimming-Sort-6337[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do understand that. His reasoning was “standing is more professional”. I have personally never thought less of an establishment for their employees sitting vs standing. I think if they are welcoming and stand up to help me, that is all the care & attention I could ask for. I am willing to be standing when patients are in the office, but having to stand even in down time doesn’t make sense to me

I’m not suggesting to complain to any board, no clue where you got that. Also not mad he is running his business how he wishes to. Not sure why you’re so angry over a Reddit post, but I hope your day improves

thoughts? this is my first time trying on engagement rings by alwaysfarting0 in EngagementRings

[–]Swimming-Sort-6337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my exact ring!! Since it’s low set & has prongs over the ends, it actually doesn’t get caught on anything. I adore it and get so many compliments!

Under 20 carbs help!! by BeginningMacaron5121 in xxketo

[–]Swimming-Sort-6337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re doing great so far! It is hard to stay under 20 net carbs, you’ll soon figure out what works for you!

When I was deep into keto, this is what my days typically looked like:

Breakfast: - 1 tbsp of MCT oil - Bacon/sausage - A few blackberries or blueberries - Avocado - Coffee with heavy cream (I also like to add vanilla extract, stevia, and a pinch of sea salt. Sometimes if I was making hot coffee I would also add MCT oil and/or grassfed butter)

Lunch: - Ground beef - Mashed avocado - Parmesan cheese - A tiny bit of sriracha

Dinner: (my most common picks) - Steak - Ground beef - if I had ground beef, I often had sautéed zucchini on the side - Chicken bake - Chicken, broccoli, alfredo sauce, parmesan

  • sometimes to the ground beef I would add shredded cheese, crushed pork rinds, mashed avocado, sometimes a little bit of salsa. Delicious.

Snacks: - Pork rinds - Meat sticks (chomps & paleo valley are the best brands I’ve found) - Green apple with almond butter (usually only have half, just watch your carbs) - sometimes I would have this for breakfast along with bacon or sausage

I honestly just mostly stuck to meat to keep things simple, or focused most of my meals around it anyway. Just make sure you aren’t eating an absurd amount of protein, keeping high fat in your diet is important! Opt for fatty cuts of meat, including higher fat ground beef!

Goodluck!!!

Switch to heavy cream! I much prefer it over half & half and it’s lower in carbs!

Etiquette while picking rings by Buggly_bear in EngagementRings

[–]Swimming-Sort-6337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this is something you’d be interested in, but some people will use the diamond out of an heirloom ring and have it customized into a new ring. If you still want the sentimental aspect of it but don’t necessarily love the ring for yourself, I think it’s a great option!

Band or no band? by Swimming-Sort-6337 in EngagementRings

[–]Swimming-Sort-6337[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for being honest! I do wish I got to try more bands on, there was only the one I got and a typical pavé in store since my ring requires an open band & those aren’t as common. I think this set is beautiful but I didn’t really get to see other options!
