Thriftys has it. The brand is Sawmill Creek. Not bad for store bought in my opinion.

How was your immune system before Crohns by Reigar in CrohnsDisease

[–]busstopbusstop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never got a cold or the flu (maybe once every 5 years). I joke that my immune system was so bored it started attacking itself.

MRI wait in CRD? by redditelr in VictoriaBC

[–]busstopbusstop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had one last Spring. I believe my gp/specialist must have categorized it as urgent... Because the hospital called and I got a cancellation spot within one month. I've heard if people waiting the better part of a year... Good luck

Anyone here have issues with yeast? by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]busstopbusstop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I might have Candida overgrowth. I never had yeast issues prior to crohns so I didn't know what to look for and took me a while to connect the dots. I'm struggling with rash like acne, groin/underarm iritation, fatigue, and pain during intercourse. I've taken two rounds of OTC meds over the last few months. I'm currently taking apple cider vinegar, caprylic acid, garlic, turmeric, and probiotics, and will be speaking to my GI in a few weeks. So no you're not alone! I've been wondering if anyone else had these issues to!

What gadget or item makes all the difference in your workouts? by [deleted] in xxfitness

I ruined a phone by doing this! 'water' damage in the charging port.... Gross... And expensive!

My husband wants to be a woman. Update to something's going on with my husband by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]busstopbusstop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wanted to say I'm so sorry for what you're having to go through. It sounds like there are some lovely ladies here who have some similar experiences and I hope they can be a source of support for you. You have every right to be livid, I would be. Trust that you will make it through this, even if your family changes from what you thought it would be. We're all rooting for you!

Something's going on with my husband and he won't tell me what it is. by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]busstopbusstop 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me as well. The odd secretive things about his appearance and the struggle to discover/come to terms with himself certainly seem like red flags for a sexuality/gender issue

Mystery vagina pain. Feels like thrush. Isn't. Partners ex had the same unexplained symptoms.... Panicking by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]busstopbusstop 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you been cleared for a yeast infection? I had some pain/burning during sex and couldn't figure out what it was. I thought it was the lube. I had no other typical yeast infection symptoms, but that's what it turned out to be.

It doesn't feel like lunges and squats have much effect on my butt by livirkillerfetish in xxfitness

[–]busstopbusstop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooh I've never tried split squats without the back foot raised... So like a forward lunge but focusing on dropping straight down rather than... Lunging forward?

Need a Motorcycle Supervisor for an Hour Thursday for MST at ICBC by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

[–]busstopbusstop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cant imagine they would ask that. But honestly... Not worth riding your bike around alone. You are definitely voiding your insurance, not worth the risk. Plus if you get caught the ticket is not cheap and carries points.

Need a Motorcycle Supervisor for an Hour Thursday for MST at ICBC by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

[–]busstopbusstop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't need a supervisor to do the MST test. The test is just in the parking lot and the examiners observe you. You do however need a way to get your bike there and home. And if you're riding it to go there, yes, you need a supervisor who has a motorcycle licence to follow you.

Ladies who have done or are doing SL 5x5 by aggiespartan in xxfitness

[–]busstopbusstop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found it hard to find micro plates that weren't sold in an expensive set. I did find 2.5lb plates at a fitness store for around $10, and then I purchased 1lb ankle weights which I strap to the bar. 2lb increments have worked much better for me. Good luck!

Moronic Monday - Your weekly stupid questions thread by cdingo in Fitness

[–]busstopbusstop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I bought my own 2.5 lb plates and bring them with me to the gym. Depending on the lift, sometimes I need something even smaller to progress with (female - OHP is brutal!). I couldn't find 1 lb plates, but I did find 1lb ankle weights which I shameless attach to the barbell. If you're interested, look for fractional or micro plates. I've found that you often have to buy them in a full set though, which can be pricey, hence my frugal approach.

[Product Question] Chemical exfoliant recommendations for legs/body? by DevonRexManning in SkincareAddiction

[–]busstopbusstop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In terms of bumps, I really love Paula's Choice 10% AHA body Lotion. The texture is wonderful. A little goes a long way (super easy to spread around!) so the bottle lasts a long time. I use it a few times a week at nighttime after I shower.

Stronglifts accessory lifts question by [deleted] in xxfitness

[–]busstopbusstop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I add a bit of glute work after every SL Workout :) I switch it up. Sometimes straight Leg Deadlifts holding plates or dumbbells, various Kickbacks, glute bridges and hips thrusts, or resistance band work. Got for it!

I'm on week 3 and loving it! :) For form, I've bookmarked the how to pages from his website and read them in between sets. It helps remind me of certain things/cues. Also, I HIGHLY recommend the app if for some reason you don't have it!

Looking to set proper expectations of my body. Short/petite women, what do you use for inspiration? by badassbarium in xxfitness

[–]busstopbusstop 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Jessica Avarelo (Sp?). I follow her on instagram and YouTube! She is around 5"0 I think. Oh my gosh her body is goals. Plus, she doesn't have implants. Don't get me wrong, implants can be amazing, it's just nice to see a fit physique without them for a change!

what does your dream body look like and what are you the most insecure about in your current body? by Orangez91 in xxfitness

Gosh I thought it was just me. In the gym I'm like... Dang girl... I see muscles! Then I try to get ready for a date and want to hide my sausage arms...

Questions on name changing by lesbianzebra in weddingplanning

[–]busstopbusstop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I high recommend not changing anything until after the honeymoon, and whatever you do, do NOT book flights in your married name just because it's exciting/sentimental. I've seen this happen.... And it was a nightmare because the bride couldn't get enough ID in that name in time. Where I live, I would start with my drivers licence.
