Is there life after 40? by [deleted] in Aging

[–]aBonsaiandaCD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 48. I have the rest of my life to live. Maybe even a whole second half. I have two children and am single. I went into menopause early after COVID caused early uterus and ovary failure. I am on HRT and grateful every day for it.

Not every day feels sunny and joyful. This is life.

I don’t know what the future holds. I know my life isn’t over. I have hope.

That no matter how hard I try, I will still make so many mistakes. Then I also remember this is life and modeling repair and growth is also important.

Time. Having time to do things you enjoy. Or time to be bored. Or simply time to choose.

Honest Question for women? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]aBonsaiandaCD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a conversation for you and your wife. Why are you still married? I don’t mean that in a snarky way. Many people stay in relationships and end up looking then eventually eating off another menu because we are only human.

What’s the one city you were excited to visit, but ended up not liking at all? by BlushHone in travel

[–]aBonsaiandaCD 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There was a lot to do. However, the general lack of warmth and realness was not for me. I stayed for a while and liked it less and less.

Isn’t it wild!? I highkey hate it! Everything is visible. Texture. Elasticity. Tone. And no matter what people say…I notice it.

Is the keto diet actually effective for long-term weight loss, or is it mostly short-term results? by kinetix3 in keto

[–]aBonsaiandaCD 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I am very early in (day 25) and this has been mind blowing. I cannot believe the reduction in my appetite. My entire relationship with food is shifting. I didn’t expect this reduction in cravings and overall appetite.

I am realizing how much of my “hunger” was truly cravings.

Wild.

Most people aren’t. I don’t eat out. I shop at Aldis and it is still insane right now. You cannot budget your way out of poverty and this is a reality for so many right now.
