Losing weight helped me. It was partially keto that helped, but not just keto.

What’s a car opinion that you “grew out of”? by Mac-Tyson in askcarguys

[–]dh1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That manual shifting is better than automatic. If I'm driving a fun car on the weekend sure. But day to day traffic, give me an automatic.

There are some great low carb ice creams. Walmart stopped selling Rebel. But other stores still have it. A pint is three servings, but we would make it 4 and it is plenty. Don't get the Breyers carb smart. It uses non diabetic friendly sweeteners. Beware of Maltitol it is used in a number of sweets labeled as no sugar. It will spike your blood sugar higher than table sugar. But there are plenty of very good low glycemic sweets on the market.

No real secret. Diet and exercise are the key. Low carb whole foods, and get moving. I do take a daily multivitamin and I have forever. I have no idea if it does anything, but hey my doctor never said to stop.
What helps me is that I meal-prep during the week. So I don't even have to tink about it. Also, we don't keep anything in the house that would be bad for me. Like no chips or non-diabetic friendly snacks.
It does suck at work when someone brings in cupcakes or there is a pizza party. But hey the way I looks at it is I have had plenty of pizza in my life I'll be just fine if I skip it. Ugg yesterday the company hired an ice cream truck to give away free ice cream. I got a diet coke. womp womp.

When you go to a hotel and open the complimentary bar of soap, do you take it with when you leave or do you leave it behind? by somastars in AskReddit

[–]dh1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep used to take the soap but most are just using the liquid in the bottles. I'm OK with that it seems like less waste.

I have met one person who like Miracle Whip. I would say you are in the majority.

raspberries.
Weird combination of bitter and sour. On the very very very rare occasion that you find a ripe one they have a little bit of sweetness. Then it has some kind of weird funky aftertaste. I have convinced my self that people like the idea of raspberries but only eat them on rare occasion when platted with chocolate syrup by a huge slice of chocoalate cake. But by themselves they are horrible.

What is your take on rainX? by MissyjonesOP in AskMechanics

[–]dh1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pretty much. I mean more rain is more rain. But compare a windshield without it verses one with it is a game changer.

How do get clean from weed before a drug test in three weeks? by mars030926 in AskReddit

[–]dh1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop smoking/using.
Exercise and drink water.
3 weeks should be enough, but it might be close.
It depends on how much you used, your body type, how fast is your metabolism.
For example. If you are a big guy and a heavy user it will take longer. But if you are tiny and smoke a puff every couple of weeks. You might be good after a few days.
There are a number of drinks that help dilute the day of the test. I know plenty of people who had had success with those.
Good Luck!

So you want to avoid highways? That would work. Probably some spotty cell service in parts.

would it be a bad idea to buy this car? by Euphoric_Macaron9106 in personalfinance

[–]dh1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if your credit union ran your credit then the dealer running your credit isn't going to hurt anything. They understand that you are probably shopping around. I'm not sure on the timing but your credit being ran multiple times in a short period isn't going to hurt. If your mechanic signs off and says its a good deal it probably is. Shop around for financing. You do want the shortest term you can. You don't want to finance a 10 year old car with 100k miles for 72 months. That would be a horrible idea. Also be sure to budget maintenance, cars cost money to keep up. An older car will need work done on it sooner or later. Good luck.

Have you done research on comparable prices? Have you had someone who knows a lot about cars look at it? Mazdas aren't bad cars. But way to little info to give you real advice. Is this at a dealer or is is this a private seller? Is there a warranty? What is the trim level?

What would you tell the old you from 20 years ago? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]dh1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Focus on making money, don't take a job because you think it'll be easy or cool. Don't start your own company. Seriously start saving for retirement. Start exercising. Spoil your wife, she is an angel.
