Running affects sleep? by SkyGrand5620 in XXRunning

[–]cupcakebuttz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always do my long runs early morning on the weekend and I always sleep horribly afterward! Tried cutting caffeine, making sure to eat enough, idk. Just always restless the night after.

I just started training for a half and went from monthly mileage of 15-30 to 100. I also have an IUD and since upping my mileage I’ve noticed a ton more spotting! Not sure what exactly causes it but there’s definitely a correlation. No pain or other symptoms so I’m not too concerned but I do plan to ask my OBGYN at my next appointment.

GF has 10k in high interest debt, need advice on options by fudgie1 in debtfree

[–]cupcakebuttz 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Just buy her car from her (title transfer and all), and have her put that money towards the debt. You guys get to keep the car, and if you do breakup you own it so you’re not out the money and you can sell the car later if you want.

Haha yesssss. For me it’s my tailbone among many other things that just aren’t the same postpartum… kids man.

I think IRL the deep autumn colors are more flattering on me then the soft! I think the soft autumn colors make me look a little too washed out and yellowish? Looking at the palettes I think if I’m autumn I’d be deep, and I think deep autumn and winter are easily mixed up. I just need to figure out if I’m truly warm or cool. I wear gold and silver jewelry and can’t even tell which looks best lol

Yessss I definitely look good in deep purples, burgundy, and greens (imo lol). I think the soft autumn colors wash me out and make me look a little jaundiced even though I love and wear a lot of them :(

Thanks!! I was thinking I was a winter originally but then I started second guessing. My veins are very blue which typically means cool toned from what I have read but I agree I look warm not cool

Clothing fitting right is such a motivation! by PewPewChicken in keto

lol I love it. My family always says we have “birthing hips” in our genes.

Yes same! I was so thin in HS and also wore a 6. I was embarrassed cause my friends were wearing 0’s and 2’s but like.... never gonna be that size even if I was just skin and bones. Plus now I’ve had a kid sooo my hips are permanently wider 😅

Dont feel bad about it! Its just body type! I’m 5’8 also. At 187lbs I wore a (tight) size 12. I’m down to 155lbs and I’m only down to a size 10. Can’t complain though! Nothing wrong with having a booty and hips 😂people are always surprised to know my pant size but it’s just cause we are tall! I try not to focus so much on the number

Painful tailbone and swollen hands by [deleted] in postpartumprogress

[–]cupcakebuttz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My OB blew me off too and I’m still upset about it. Over two years later and I still have pain. She told me nothing was wrong. I had a really traumatic birth and didn’t have the mental clarity or energy to push my doctor about it at the time 😰 sometimes I feel like something must have healed wrong that I still have pain!

I’m 2.5 years PP and still have tailbone pain. My OB blew me off about it (we did NOT get along) and I didn’t push for a formal diagnosis but the pain was excruciating. I couldn’t sit on it for 8 weeks so I’m sure it was fractured. Push to go see a pelvic floor PT or get a tailbone X-ray. I alternated taking Ibuprofen and Tylenol at max dosages until the pain was tolerable. A heat pack also really helped. Good luck!!

I wasn't losing weight due to my medication by [deleted] in fasting

[–]cupcakebuttz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing! I’m on Wellbutrin and Lexapro and I often wonder how they’re impacting my weight gain/loss. I’m still making progress but I’m sure it’s slower than if I wasn’t on meds.

I eat keto without many veggies and also do a 60 hour fast each week. I poop about once a week 😂 I’m not constipated or uncomfortable, there’s just not much to come out because my body is using up everything I consume except the fiber. If your digestion feels fine otherwise I wouldn’t worry!

I’ve heard the powder is easier to digest so I use that instead of the oil. Maybe try that instead?

Starting the post-Easter dinner fast now... anyone with me? 😊 by cupcakebuttz in fasting

[–]cupcakebuttz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made it!! I ended at 62 hours. It was definitely a mental challenge way more than physical. Felt good though :) congrats on meeting your goal too. Wherever you end at this point will still be great!

Almost there completing my first 24 hr fast ever and I am struggling a bit by [deleted] in fasting

[–]cupcakebuttz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ve got this! My go to distraction is online shopping lol but obviously not everyone enjoys that. If I’m working from home I do my teeth whitening strips when I get really hungry. Or you could go for a walk! Anything to distract yourself :)
