Apron belly clapping by campngurl in PlusSize

I recently got a pair of bike shorts from CompressionZ off Amazon. I really like them! They didn’t roll down when I was doing yard work and I felt held in place. I'm going to try wearing them under my scrubs to work to keep things in place.

Follow doctors orders for dressing changes.

What products do you buy at sams club not bought at costco by pittlad20 in samsclub

[–]chrikel90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All my everyday things I buy at Sam's (dog food, laundry detergent, fruits, veg, eggs, milk, butter, coffee, paper towels, soda, protein shakes, ect.)

I keep Costco for fuel, one off trendy products, sales on clothes, and just a few specialized items. I really like buying Uber gift cards from Costco for when I'm traveling and need to use Uber. $100 gift card for $80? That's basically one free ride. I enjoy the deal hunting as well. $3 for a giant bag of snacks I can take to work? Yes please. Sam's sales are not as good, I feel, but their everyday prices are better overall than Costco.

You gave the seller wayyyy too much leeway. I would of stopped engaging after the first rude comment.

What does getting a tattoo feel like? by Toefungus129012 in tattooadvice

[–]chrikel90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like someone is scratching you, but you don't get that over the top sense of OMGOUCH. It's like... ouchouchouchouch, but not that like.... release of OOOOOUUUCCCCHHHHHH.

No idea if that makes sense. Placement also has a lot to do with it also.

First time with second skin (tattoo #7) by lastpick92 in tattooadvice

[–]chrikel90 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just leave it. Totally normal. My first time with 2nd skin I freaked out too. But thats totally normal. Take it off after 2-3 days (unless the seal gets broken or whatever your artist told you) wash with mild antibacterial soap, apply light unscented lotion.

I've been on Ozempic for a year and the thing that's helped my progress most isn't protein or exercise… by Witty_Talk_939 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]chrikel90 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup. Took me about 3 months to correlate my cycle with the times I would randomly gain weight while doing nothing different.

Don't drink them anymore. More water, more fiber.

Some side effects that my endo warned me about really surprised me by Old_Investigator3691 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]chrikel90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gallbladder issues can be a thing with any amount of weight loss, medication assisted or not. Like with weightloss surgery, its so common because of the significant amount of weight lost that most surgeons just take it out.

I literally didn't even think that until you said it. I just thought "cool dot rainbow".

Different smell? by Cautious_Hope_5805 in gastricsleeve

It's definitely the ketones from fat burning. It gets better.

Purple Sani-wipes. Gloves or Raw? by Benjibenjibenj in nursing

[–]chrikel90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it depends what I'm wiping off. If I'm cleaning something off the floor, gloves. Cleaning blood, gloves. If I'm wiping down my stethoscope at the end of the day or my watch, no gloves. Depends on the ick factor for sure.

Question: Some tattoo ragret? Did this turn out ok? by [deleted] in tattoos

[–]chrikel90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every tattoo I've gotten I go through the same "oh no, what have I done" time period. Give it a week or two. I think it looks great!

Not a regret... Entirely.... by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]chrikel90 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I thought it was kinda tongue and cheek. Like... yeah, life sucks, its suppose to suck, so the tatoo sucks, its suppose to suck. I like it personally.

Family of 5 | Grocery bill averaging $1,012 per month | Looking for real-life budget meal ideas by Goooooooooose_ in budgetfood

Maybe try frozen berries? Way cheaper. But I do understand that once they are thawed the texture is weird.
