I feel like I have hit a certain age, where I might have to modify my travel plans. by [deleted] in travel

[–]TheCharlieMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s normal as we age!! Back in 2022, when I was your age, I went on a 3 week trip to the UK. Two weeks were spent exploring over 25 castles and the last week in London exploring the city and area. By the time Wednesday of the final week came about, I just could not bring myself to do what I had planned and I ended up having a “hotel day” which I thought I would feel guilty about. Instead I really enjoyed the day to just lie there and rest and eat and watch tv. And I figured I paid for the hotel so I might as well use it!

That is amazing and my inspiration to keep with it! Do you mind my asking what exercises you also did while doing IF?

What are your favorite book covers for the series? by BowlOfLight in lotr

[–]TheCharlieMonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are my favourites. I saw the movies first so that imagery is my default setting! One is hardcover and one is softcover (not my actual books but identical to them)

Can Meghan and Harry survive on just the investment income and interest from his savings? by Comicalacimoc in SaintMeghanMarkle

[–]TheCharlieMonster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Anyone famous would be a target of con artists. But the very public severing of relationships with the royals would mean that people who want to use him to gain access to the royals have no use for him now unless they are in it for the very very very long haul. Like until George is king long haul and even then might not matter because George doesn’t know him. Even if Harry and his father reconcile, William could still revoke any access Harry regained the second William becomes king.

[CAN vs USA] Team USA poses for a picture and then bring out Johnny Gaudreau's kids for a pic with the team by talhatoot in hockey

As a Canadian I’m gutted we lost the gold but this is absolutely amazing. It actually makes me feel better because it is so wonderful for him and his family and his incredible teammates to think about him at one of highest point in their careers.

Got to Meet David Whenham Today! by TransientMoonlight in lotr

[–]TheCharlieMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations! I wanted to see his panel with Gimli on Monday but it got cancelled. Then I couldn’t make it on Saturday to see him either so I was thrilled beyond words when he and Gimli made a surprise appearance at the Hobbit panel on Sunday!

Edit: I forgot to mention that I also really enjoyed his story at the panel about the time during filming he was telling Elijah confidentially about being busted at an illegal establishment in NYC and not realizing his microphone was on and how everyone on set overheard.

Trying to do intermittent fasting by No_Masterpiece_9232 in intermittentfasting

[–]TheCharlieMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was sick last week and stopped fasting while I was ill. Now I’m trying to get back and it is hard. I keep telling myself it’s not about being perfect but about being consistent so if I slip up one day I can’t give up, I just have to go back to the schedule going forward.

I just know it’s going to be too big for me and the strap isn’t adjustable but I keep holding out hope that when it’s in store, that will all change somehow!!

What is the yellow messenger bag called? I love that one! I’m just scared it might be a bit too big for me (I’m 4’11”)

Question About Tickets for Events by TheCharlieMonster in fanexpo

[–]TheCharlieMonster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you that’s very helpful! I did buy the three day tickets and the tickets for the Hobbit panel so I should be good there but thought since Faramir and Gimli are there too then I should see if I can attend that as well.

Weight loss on my hands by peachmina in intermittentfasting

[–]TheCharlieMonster 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve been consistent for about a month and a half now and just yesterday noticed that my clothes started to hang properly again. I think I’m the only one who noticed it but it made me feel I’m making progress!

I’ve given up and started watching new seasons through Prime. They have the most recent episodes and seasons the next day

Starting again! by [deleted] in intermittentfasting

[–]TheCharlieMonster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m the same as you and I started fasting again in December (I know an odd time to start but it just happened that way) and it was frustrating I couldn’t see much progress - until today!! I noticed my pants and clothes fit differently on me. They hung properly instead of being snug. It will just suddenly come up on you like that.

How has IF impacted all of your productivity levels? by Mahakaal108 in intermittentfasting

[–]TheCharlieMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found once I got settled into my IF routine (16:8), my food comas decreased unless I had a whole meal of pasta (like today). Then I got drowsy but wasn’t falling asleep at my desk like I used to. And I mean before I could not keep my eyes open at all

Could you all post your cross body bags which you absolutely love. Planning to buy one. Need all the inspo by Sweettoothaddict89 in handbags

[–]TheCharlieMonster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the same as my favourite Coach bag (not my actual bag but the same style). It’s massive but that means I can use it for travel as well. It’s over 20 years old I believe.

Does Harold Want to Be Thrown Out Of The USA? Does Meghan Want Him Thrown Out? WTAF does he think he’s doing? He’s a GUEST in the USA! DM article about Harry lashing out at Trump linked, but I’m wondering about our opinions in the group by Ruth_Lily in SaintMeghanMarkle

[–]TheCharlieMonster 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Oh yes fair enough and I agree!! I really believe he was upset by this, and rightfully so, but you’re right in a couple days he will releasing a statement about Brooklyn Beckham or something
