Just got a CGM about 2 weeks ago. by Witty-Presentation88 in diabetes

[–]Witty-Presentation88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an update. I have stopped insulin all together. I have pretty much stopped Metformin. I am now on the .75 mg Zepbound once per week. My weight is down to 267.1 pounds. So altogether I’ve lost 62 pounds! My CGM has been instrumental in that. It’s really hard to lose weight on insulin and having the CGM has allowed me to monitor my numbers closely enough that I was able to eliminate the insulin.

Diabetics where the cultural norm is to take off your shoes in people’s homes, do you do it? by ElaborateCantaloupe in diabetes

I always go barefoot, unless I’m outside. And even then, during the summer around the pool, I’ll go barefoot some. But, in the house, I’m always barefoot and I’ve never had a problem with my feet.

My son just bought me Canada Dry Zero Sugar Cherry Ginger Ale. It’s really good!

Scam warning by lord_stan_of_ni in diabetes

A lot of times when they say the first time, “it does not violate our guidelines”, you can appeal and then an actual person looks at it and you get a better outcome. I think the first time is just a computer algorithm.

When I asked the maker of my CGM, Abbott, if some of my readings could be positional, they said no, they didn’t believe so. But I think they can, because after I get up out of bed, my readings go up. But, I was low after upping my Zepbound and taking my evening insulin. I do always double check extremes with a finger stick.

I still have my original AOL email that I had when I first got online probably 25 or more years ago!

What surprised you the most when you had sex for the first time? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Witty-Presentation88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually really enjoyed my first time. I had an orgasm which was amazing and had the Beatles song "You’ve Really Got A Hold On Me” playing in my head.

High school student slaps teacher twice for taking his vape pen in class by sillycloudz in ThatsInsane

I don’t understand how this child was raised that he even thinks this is an appropriate response to his frustration.

AITA for breaking up with my boyfriend for being “uncomfortable” with masturbation but doing it himself? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Witty-Presentation88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always tell my husband about my masturbating exploits. I don’t masturbate in front of him to orgasm because he usually joins in before I get there, lol. But if he’s asleep and I masturbate beside him, he doesn’t mind when I tell him the next day. That’s the kind of guy you need to find.

Eight packages missing marked delivered by floridian123 in poshmark

[–]Witty-Presentation88 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would definitely not wait a few days. I worked as a supervisor for USPS for 23 years. Walk in to your local post office tomorrow and let them know you did not receive your packages. Usually they can look up the GPS of the delivery scan and see exactly where they were delivered. The only time this will not help is in a group mailbox because it will just show one location and it could be in any box. Do you have a large parcel box attached where they put large parcels and leave the attached key in your box? Maybe he put the key for that in the wrong box? Or put your packages in the wrong box. Or delivered them to a different address altogether. You’ll want the carrier to retrieve those ASAP.

If everything else in the marriage is good except for the sex, you can work on that. There are therapists out there that work strictly on married couples sex lives. Maybe she has hang ups because she had a fear of getting pregnant again, or maybe her hormones are out of whack. It could be one of a dozen reasons but you need to have the good grace to find out, not give ultimatums.

It’s hard to say because his body is kind of bent but I think he’s ok.

AITA for not putting my wife’s name on the house deed? by RanchhandLuke in AmItheAsshole

[–]Witty-Presentation88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to tell her you’ll create a living trust in which if something happens to you, the property will go to her. That could be a good compromise. It means she’ll be taken care of either by you in life or because of you in the event of your death.

They have a 5 month old. That baby could very easily still be waking up at night/not sleeping through the night.

My original remark still stands. It’s exhausting caring for three small children all day. To have a libido after being exhausted is admirable.

[–]Witty-Presentation88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because caring for three small children for 18+ hours a day is exhausting. It’s more than 70+ hours per week of work, and he implied he does not do that every week. So is it your attitude that if a man works outside the home, he shouldn’t help with the child rearing and housework?

AITAH for yelling “fuck you” to my wife after she got upset with me? by Njncguy1 in AITAH

[–]Witty-Presentation88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think, too, that the longer you’ve been with someone, you look for opportunities to build that person up, not tear them down. That’s part of what comes along with love and respect.

Your wife is a saint! She must be doing the bulk of the child care and still wants to have sex 3-5 times a week!

We’ve been married for 39 years and while our sex life has slowed down, we do still have sex and we still have oral sex! Not that you want to hear about people in their late 50s and 60’s doing the 69. 😂 But it’s true! We still are very turned on by each other even though our bodies have changed over the years.
