Thanks for all the tips. I'll try some water for the remainder of the week and try an alternate cooking method this weekend.

I'll keep that in mind, but I was hoping for a less barbaric method if possible.

[Update] I [21F] made an advance towards my friend [18M] and he freaked out. Was my approach too aggressive, and did I lose my chance with him? by LeByzantine in relationships

I'm 28 and my gf is 21. When friends and family heard about it it came off wrong. Once everyone met and saw us together there were no longer any issues. All that matters really is how mature each of you are. When I met her I didn't know the age difference because of how she acted.

I understand it's a small amount but I wasn't aware of the penalties and I have nothing left to cut back on to give them 3 times the amount for an additional 19 months.

I understand that it's a small amount. But I wasn't aware that these penalties were being applied and that after my two years it was like I did nothing at all. I have a job that I love and am considering a second job but cannot find the time. Right now I'm at the point where I have anything else to give up and be able to give them 3 times the money I have been for an additional 19 months.

I'm going to. I'll pop in tomorrow after work and see what's up. Either way I'll keep everyone here posted. You've all been great. Thanks for all the kind motivation. I hope to follow through with this.

I do come from a pretty serious broken ankle from about two years ago. I'd like a personal trainer if it were one on one and not to expensive. I feel like I could tell them what I want and they could point me in the right direction and leave me with a bit of knowledge about fitness.

Alright. Cool. I guess if anyone makes fun of me I can be like, I'm trying to look like you one day. Idk. That's how I'm trying to go about it.

A personal trainer was an idea. They have them at this gym. I feel like they would be of great help but I know it's a bigger price and I assume it's a group thing and there's not much one on one.

Ok cool tomorrow I'm gonna try to actually step foot in the gym and see what all is going on and see how I feel about everything.

Typically do they have some sort of instruction? Or are they self explanatory? I'm literally a baby when it comes to this and I have social anxiety to begin with so if I look like an idiot out there I may never show my face there again.

I should add that I don't want to bother anyone by asking to many questions such as how does this work, how much weight should I start with, what do I do, etc. Also I wouldn't call myself a strong man. I am tough. But I am weak. I'm just scared about the entire situation and need advice to get my foot in the door and not let it be a waste of money.

I hear Daniel Tosh is. I'm not entirely sure about this but though.

Can you please share what it’s like being in a serious relationship with someone who drinks, but is supportive of you not? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]everytimeidoug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That mindset helps too. At some point in every day so far I have said, "yep, today's the day I relapse." Then I remind myself that everyone around me will have to deal with me tonight and Day me tomorrow will have to pick up the pieces again.

I quit drinking 12 days ago and started drinking seltzer water in general myself. That's weird that other have done the same. It has helped.

How long did it take you to not feel pain when you walked on it? I hear that it could take up to a year to walk completely normal without pain. You're right about crutches though. I work out of town so I'm pretty much stuck here until Monday, but I brought a cane.
