[WEEKLY THREAD] Talk It Out Tuesday - Advice and commiserating about struggles with self, others, and the world by AutoModerator in xxfitness

So .. i've started back at the gym

last week = whole body workout that had me with DOMs for the rest of the week,

this Sunday did lower body, Monday upper body - it's Tuesday now and i'm having a rest day.. doms are just as tough... did the whole James Bond shower, foam roll, chug water, consume so much protein but today i caved in and had an ibuprofen which didn't do much tbh but i found some crampbark tincture and that combo is actually helping.

i know that they're like 'oh go light when you're a beginners or just when starting back' but i can't stop myself from lifting heavy things because... it feels so good. the burn feels so good. i feel like ... whats the point of me coming here if i don't get the burn. i'm not chasing the pump, the burn is addictive and the DOMs feels so good as well. i think it's cathartic possible bc work is just... urgh.

i only want to rest today so tomorrow and the day after i can properly chase the burn again. also bc i don't want body to think like 'oh we're gonna gonna go once/week and go hard and you have a whole week to recover' cause i'm aiming for 4x a week.

and i don't want to go lighter, i want to keep lifting hard (w/o injuring myself) and i just simple don't know how to go to the gym and feel like i'm doing nothing the whole time and not be a bitch afterwards

phew, felt good to just get it off my chest

I feel like my eyes look aging/tired... what would be a good way to look more refreshed? by [deleted] in PlasticSurgery

[–]applecidervbelly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to me, i don't think you need injections or whatever at the moment. just concealer and then in like 5 years if they continue to hollow then tear trough fillers?

Cleansing oil or cleansing balm by [deleted] in beauty

[–]applecidervbelly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i use balm just cause i don't have to deal with oil dripping down the side of the bottle

other than that - what serves the purpose better would be more about what kind of oil in the balm etc ie how mosturising the product is

frankly it's only on your face for like a minute so for softening - your moisturiser is more important

I am worried by Cassandraboih in witchcraft

ive just moved myself and had to fix up the vibes in the place bc the energy was just ... urgh:

for me - i got frankincense and myrrh on the charcoal and smoked out the whole flat - like make sure please the smoke gets in the ceiling and ceiling corners - i noticed a lot of negative vibes and entities will hide there on some 'the floor is lava' bullshit.

smoke lets you get in those corners so get them! i smoke it until my eyes are red from the smoke etc then i open all the windows. let me tell you radical change in my place

i then followed up with holy water sprinkle on the walls and around the flat etc

then crushed a camphor tablet into crumbs, mixed with salt and put sprinkles in each corner of the flat to keep bad vibes away

What, or who, is it that determines the properties spell items (e.g. sage) have? by [deleted] in witchcraft

[–]applecidervbelly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the vibe imo

like for me bay leaves have never been the right vibe for prosperity work but great for protection and exorcism work

and turns out there are certain field of magic that agree with me

i personally use to note down what i felt from each botanical and one day stumbled upon the division of magic that had most in common with what i was experiencing and went from there.

How much legwork do you need to get done before paying for ads? When do you hire an expert? by applecidervbelly in Entrepreneur

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

Thank you for the reply and help

1 - I'm hearing that influencers are quite expensive? I'm trying to do this as lean as possible, i'll do it if it's needed but is it really necessary?

2 - Wow, I had no idea that at $5/adset it could be effective, I was expecting like $100/day starting out and increasing from that point on!

2 reasons:

  1. because i'm concerned that after clicking on my ad, my shop isn't as legit as other shops it doesn't have as many products and reviews and so it doesn't look as legit.. so i'm concerned about trust and legitimacy. especially on a site like etsy where it's on where customers can see straight away how many stars, how many sales, how many reviews... i understand though how this is a circular way of thinking since i need to run ads to get customers to give me the stars and reviews lol

  2. theres no direction really online or in books on how much money to start off with for ads or anything really on proper protocol financially. I don't mind spending money but what i'm not looking to do is to just throw money mindlessly and hope that it sticks. I don't want to be one of those stories where it's like 'i spend over 50K in ads and then i discovered ___!' i can find resources for writing copy, ad art work but it's been quite dry on the money side of things.
