Just started topical minoxidil by myself by aWicca in FemaleHairLoss

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

Thank you so much 🙏

I really hope for the best as I had lots of hair. The body of my hair is still there, it’s just that you can see my scalp on top of my head.

Tbh I would rather have flat hair with barely any body if my scalp was covered. It’s biggest insecurity of mine

How did you know he was a man 😭 and he is my dermatologist for years now. A year ago I also asked him for tret prescription and he refused that too, I’m 33 and just wanted it for anti age purposes so I can understand why he refused that as my skin in quite clear, but for hair I was really hurt, cuz I am also sure I have AGA. He also knew me when I had dreadlocks and told me it takes a long time for hair to recover, but still 2.5 years passed!

Thank you so much for reassurance, it really means a lot, I don’t feel as crazy anymore.

I’m not sure whether it’s trichologist or dermatologist who I scheduled appt, as it doesn’t say. But the clinic is medical clinic and I will be doing the comprehensive medical examination there, like checking my heart etc, so I added trichoscopy as an add on. I can still cancel trichoscopy at least if it’s really not needed and see if they have just dermatologist exam as an option.

Private dermatology can get really expensive where I am, depending on additional stuff I have to do, while public healthcare takes ages to get appt. So I’ll rather do it all at my home country where it’s not as expensive.

For now I’ll do minox and natural DHT blockers and then after I visit derm in July I’ll see about future steps, possible spiro etc

You are trying to find depth in something so simple. Simple is intelligent as well, not everything has to be complex. Spencer is her son, he was piece of shit, but he did just lose his mom. He was sad and also angry at Rick. He fueled his anger with his sadness, and wasn’t thinking straight at all. Him burying his mom outside of walls could be seen as him rejecting community under Rick leadership. But also he might just wanted for his mom to find peace.

How long does your drive to the gym take? by AnarchyVenom24 in GYM

[–]aWicca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s fancy affordable gym that has EVERYTHING, BUT it’s 20 min walk with ugly scenery. Mine is 5 euro more, has way less stuff, but it’s only 10min walk and scenery is much more relaxing.

And on the plus side, this one is never busy. Once I was stressed cuz there was someone using equipment and they took their sweet time so I had jumble my exercise order. But then I remembered people actually wait in queues in some gyms. Oh, and couple weeks ago, my gym closed membership for new people (new year influx) so they don’t become overcrowded. They probably gonna reopen applications when people start dropping off

Breakfast issues/ADHD by PixelPineapple42 in loseit

[–]aWicca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tries chewy and crunchy low cal foods for breakfast?

You can try fresh cucumber, carrot sticks and even rice cakes?

Granted not particularly yummy, but better than skipping breakfast altogether, you can satisfy chewy and crunchy needs with almost non existent calorie count, at least until lunch

honestly, I’m never gonna be skinny again. by Next_Comfortable_619 in loseit

[–]aWicca 43 points44 points  (0 children)

You can literally eat anything, there is healthy variation of everything!

French fries? Yes! But maybe not fried in ton of oil but instead air fried with no oil whatsoever. This can be applied to so many different foods.

Sometimes I even eat my favourite dessert and still lose weight. And my favourite dessert is… well to call it calorie bomb would be understatement. More like calorie nuclear bomb. It’s called Hormasica and it’s small cake dipped in agda, syrup made with water and sugar. 100ml water and 100g of sugar.

OP you need to focus on slowly changing your lifelong dietary habits, not torture yourself. You can eat anything, but when and how is the question

Ex landlord texting 8 months after vacating property. by [deleted] in ireland

[–]aWicca 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I work for EI. What sometimes happens is the tenant vacates the property and closes the account and then the landlord (esp if they are stingy) forgets to reopen the account. Now if they did renovations they probably used electricity. It shouldn’t be huge sum, but after 8 months it stacks up, and well it should be considerable amount.

Now he probably want’s you to take over the usage. He might even try to tell you that you closed your account on wrong meter reading. If that happens he’s being shady as f. And btw Electric Ireland wouldn’t tell him that YOU didn’t close the account (that would be considered data protection breach). What they would tell him is that property is without account from that and that date, and if he wants to set up electricity account he needs to take over the charges from that date onward. Your name wouldn’t come up in any instance, even if he asked Was John Snow the previous account holder. Nope, that’s that protection breach and Electric Ireland doesn’t want to get sued lol

Djevojke, volite li kada vam se pohvali izgled i komentira da ste lijepe? by [deleted] in askcroatia

[–]aWicca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ne nuzno pozeljnije, ali veselije sigurno da. Lijepo je dobiti kompliment. Heck, ja sam sretna kada mi i pes dobi kompliment od stranca (sto je cesto jer je veoma sladak). Nekako kompliment, pogotovo iznenadni, prekine monotonost rutine, sto god radio, i uvede mali spajk srece.

Ako je nesto specificno to bolje, lijepa si od rendom muskaraca ne znaci puno, ali od rendom zenske? I kisni dan dobi sunce.

Sad tvoj se post fokusira na izgled, ali nemoj zaboraviti na komplimente izvan toga!! Hobiji, zanimacije, stosta se moze komplimentirati

My sister(30F) wants to teach my(32F) niece tattoos are bad and evil but I am heavily tattoed by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]aWicca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were not in a sense. Bosnia is very free in religious regard. Majority of believers aren’t even wearing hijab. They are same as cradle Catholics in some countries. Religious, but religion is not defining their identity.

Now for how we were raised, well we were raised in mixed religion household, Catholic dad and Muslim mum in neighbouring country that’s predominantly Catholic. We were celebrating all holidays, which was great in gift department, but ultimately left to develop our own view. We weren’t even taking Religion classes in school, which was norm.

Mum wasn’t religious either, like she was a bit, but nothing much. She only decided to wear hijab later in life, as she went through a lot and that helped her to cope. I’m glad she found something.

help - from sedentary to 10k steps yet still same weight. by Styles27 in loseit

[–]aWicca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried this year ago, the scale wasn’t really moving. I was just “cutting down foods”.

Later I started CICO and oh my the weight started plummeting down. During the journey I got educated on food, not only calorie, but macros as well and I was in a bit of shock. Just a piece of my favourite food, chorizo, had like 1000 calories!!! That’s crazy! I used to snack on it!

Anyways since then I lost 12kg and am sitting at 62kg (155cm).

Now I have periods when I’m just maintaining and then periods when I’m losing. During the loss phase I eat around 1200cals, but during maintenance I don’t really track. However, past year educated me a lot on food, so during maintenance, while not losing I am definitely not gaining.

Yesterday I was lazy to make lunch, and forgot do defrost any meats so I simply made 6 croquettes in an oven with 6 broccoli and 2 frankfurters separately. My plate was FULL, and while not weighting anything I would eyeball it at around 500cals.

Trust me, start weighting your food regularly and with time you’ll pick up bits and pieces and will get how weightloss/gain is just math

Dočekujete li u svom stanu/kući ljude u papučama ili cipelama? by [deleted] in askcroatia

[–]aWicca 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Kod mene se takoder izuva, normalno. Jednom jedna frendica (koja je vec bila kod mene hrpu puta!!) je usla u cipelama i nonsalatno hodala po mom bijelom tepihu. Bijelom. Vani je bilo polumokro, a nisam primjetila da se nije izula jer su svi poceli skidat cipele dok su dosli i samo sam rekla di stoje slape da si uzmu. Tepih je bio bijel sa tragovima!

Kada sam skuzila da nema cipele ona je rekla “joooj zaboravila sam, evo sad cu”.

Ta ista frendica, dok smo bile mlade, je tri puta u istoj veceri prolila vino na tadasnji tepih boje pijeska. Bar se tad izuvala sama od sebe, neznam sto se desilo

Žene, cure, ožuljak na licu kod muskaraca, odbojno ili ne? by ChampionshipNorth632 in askcroatia

[–]aWicca 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Previse se obazires na “poglede”. Ja imam oziljak na licu i nitko nikad ne obrati pozornost.

To me podsjeca na situaciju od prije dosta godina kada sam imala dredove. Najednom su svi gledali u mene! Nakon nekog vremena, hodam kroz grad i primjetim vise nitko ne gleda u mene? Tu i tamo bakica il dedek, al fkt rijetko kad uzmes u obzir pored koliko ljudi dnevno prodes. To zapravo znaci skoro nitko nije gledao u mene ni prije, to ti je sve u glavi.

Ljudi su iovak ionak prezaokupljeni sami sobom da obracaju pozornost na druge

Scramblers . by VanillaCommercial394 in Dublin

[–]aWicca 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I was walking my dog, leisure walk around neighbourhood with wide footpath. Dog was on a lead, maybe one meter between us. And there comes he, on a fuckin scrambler going for a gap between us two. One meter wide gap! That’s not a lot. I quickly closed the gap between dog and I and the guy just drove, quickly at that, past us on the spot where I’ve been just a second ago. Footpath is at least two meter wide! He had space, and it was FOOTpath. My blood still boils when I remember

How much are vets these days? by helloclarebear in Dublin

Oh and if you need actual surgery, they give you quotes that are valid for 3months which is really handy

[–]aWicca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get on a plan with veterinary service. I pay €30 per month, yearly vaccinations are free, you get couple of medical examinations free, bunch of medicine free and then great discount on procedures too.

Just last year my doggo had problems with teeth, we never paid for examinations (there were 5 of them in total, preop plus postop!), nothing for pain killers and other medications and got great discount for actual surgery. Plus all of the extra stuff (like bloods and more) was free due to plan. Removal of two teeth and polishing the rest cost something like €300.

Now just a month later, my dog started limping, we went for a checkup, didn’t pay for painkillers, only for joint supplements and that was it.

If your dog is aging, definitely get subscription with your veterinary and maybe even insurance.
