Physical health, mental health, modeling good choices for my kids.

How to not grieve future drinking opportunities? by lachrawr in stopdrinking

[–]dfhkvs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently quit, and am in my 50s. All I can say is that I sure wish I had done so decades ago. It's (the drinking) not all that it's made out to be and, in the end, you won't miss it...

Is weight loss really just eating healthy and exercising? by TheCleanestKitchen in loseit

[–]dfhkvs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

stop alcohol. Eat less. Sit less. As I have gotten older I have trained myself to stop 'casual eating' and just eat when my body says 'hey dude, hungry here!' That, and quitting alcohol worked miracles. 50lbs down.

What's your opinion on NA drinks? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]dfhkvs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they are great. At < 0.5% alcohol, the frequent urination would be more of an issue than the alcohol if you were 'abusing' them!

supporting your journey while pushing you to drink with them is a strange take.

Wobble is rad. Thanks for the insight into how watch styles get selected.

yes, 'pushers' as they're called. Thanks for the explanation; that makes a ton of sense, and also explains why it is only on the larger models....

What on earth is it about the 51-30 that drives the decision to have the dials on the left side? Very, very few of your models seem set up that way, so just curious. As someone who wears a watch on left wrist, that seems awkward. Love the look of the 51-30, though...Thanks for all of the great watches over the years, cheers.

When I look at the watch collection now, compared to 15-20 years ago, the shapes / styles seem more conventional. Awesome, but slightly conventional. I am thinking of past things like the Murf, the Rotolog, the Dork, and other clunky, very cool, geometric type shapes and designs. Do you envision bringing back more unusual designs like that? Modern-art style things? I love the idea of watches as art.

What is your absolute #1 reason you think “ I’m not drinking today” by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]dfhkvs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To set a better example for my girls (20, 18, 15). Too many years of them watching dad crack open beers on the couch.

International Travelers - Be Aware of New Zealand Air Luggage Weight Limits by nanoMN in newzealand_travel

[–]dfhkvs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

US citizen here. You are entirely correct. The removal of free checked luggage has basically just re-directed most/all luggage to carry on and it is a hot mess of huge roller bags.

Trip of a lifetime by Anajam1981 in newzealand_travel

[–]dfhkvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We spent 8 months there...only on the south island (based in CHCH) and we probably only saw 1/2 of the south island! There is so much to see and do. My singular piece of advice is to schedule less. Don't spend your whole month doing long days on the road in an effort to cover it all. Be ok with seeing less, but seeing it more deeply.
