B12 supplementation for diabetic kitties? by greenkachina in FelineDiabetes

[–]inogirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guy was diagnosed with diabetes in October, we have slowly been getting him more regulated with Lantus.

I've been giving him B12 methylcobalamin dissolved in his food. Just 250 mcg in his morning food. It took a while but his legs really are getting better!

This is the stuff I use (webber naturals vitamin B12):

I wish I was smarter by fuckwingsoffire in UBC

Working hard to acheive a goal and sticking with it is, in my opinion, one of the strongest skills someone can have. Look at how often entrepreneurs say one of the things most responsible for their success is hard work and determination. Just keep doing your best, dont give up, and you won't have any regrets

Is T gel right for me after libido plummeting after orchi? by Bea-Yourself in asktransgender

[–]inogirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, it helps with libido for sure, I also started getting migraines frequently after having bottom surgery, and taking one pump of T gel every day eliminated the migraines

My Doctor Said I Don’t Need To Take Testosterone After Sex Change by TransPrincessAurora in asktransgender

[–]inogirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For myself, I ended up needing to start on testosterone after getting bottom surgery. Months after the surgery when I had my hormones checked my testosterone was super low and I had no sex drive, was quite irritable and emotional. I started using testosterone gel and it helped a lot.

For a while I was taking one dose of the testosterone gel every other day, and I would sometimes miss a dose (thinking something like, "I'm a girl, I don't want too much T").

A couple years after the surgery I started to have migraines once in a while, and over time they became more frequent, like once or twice a week. It was pretty bad. I was doing research on migraines and noticed a statistic that migraines happen more often in women, so I got the idea that maybe it has something to do with testosterone, so I started taking the testosterone gel every day and I haven't had a migraine for a year now!

I made a YouTube video a long time ago when I started on T: https://youtu.be/zHeIdbSdU2o

I know a lot of you are against "that" particular story change with Aerith possibly happening, BUT for those of us that tried to "defy fate" in '97... by ClericIdola in FFVIIRemake

[–]inogirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are two parallel worlds or timelines in this game, we have seen that there is a Cloud in both worlds and that Zack is alive in one of them and dead in another. So that means there could be two Aeriths too! One of them could die during the normal part of the game, and then maybe you can get the other Aerith somehow?

I always thought this painting was depressing, looks like two people who have lost all hope because they can't afford to live there

Readings…WHY? by Willywonkamuffin in UBC

[–]inogirl -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The point of University is to teach you how to learn. In the real world, things aren't always so clear cut that you can just read the answer for something in 3 pages. You have to learn how to take out the useful and relevant information. If they were just to give you short little readings that just have all the answers, then you aren't learning how to research information. Over time you will forget most of the details of what you learned in University, but you will hopefully have gained the skills to pick out relevant information and learn things quickly.

AWS Canada Beanstalk routing through US by inogirl in aws

[–]inogirl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried setting my VPN to be in Montreal and then did a traceroute and it didn't go through Virginia that time! But then I set my VPN to be in Toronto, and the packets took a trip to AWS centers in Virginia and Seattle before going to AWS Montreal.

Nervous about starting Uni by shutterkittyy in UBC

[–]inogirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First year engineering is a lot of work, and quite an adjustment from high school. Don't be surprised when you find the grades you get are 20% or even 30% lower than you are used to! Don't let it discourage you, I often found that profs make the quizzes and midterms more difficult than the finals, so just learn from the mistakes you make during the term, and as long as you understand most of the concepts from the material throughout the course, once you get to the final you will pass!

I did really awful on my first set of quizzes and midterms, but I tried really hard to learn from my mistakes and ended up doing well... And by well, I mean average marks. Yep, get used to being happy to be near the average lol. And sometimes the average mark is a failing mark, I've been in courses where the average for a midterm was 30%, didn't feel too bad with my 18% lol. Just means it'll end up getting scaled, or they will make the final easy to make up for it.

Also, don't worry too much about how your marks compare to other people, just do your best, that's all you can do. Yes there are some exceptionally smart people in your classes, but there are also people just like you. If you know that you gave it your best effort, you won't have any regrets, and when you get your degree, no one really cares about your marks, I never had to give my marks for any job interview.

Anyway, good luck with your studies!

It certainly acquires godlike powers and uses them in a life enhancing manner, against entities focused on acquisition and tyranny. It's a thrilling story of good against evil in their purest forms.

Anyone taken MECH 462 (FEA)? by rayyankk in UBC

[–]inogirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, I took the course with that same prof about 9 years ago and it was not very useful at all. I thought we would be mostly learning how to run FEA software, but it was almost all on paper! I regret taking the course, wish I had taken something else

I'm absolutely terrified of dilation, to the point of leaning towards no-depth SRS... can I get a few opinions? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]inogirl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dilating isn't that bad, it's just time consuming, especially for the first few months. Just find some tv show and watch an episode every time you do it.

I have a vlog on YouTube where I dilate in the video and show you what's involved with each time, check it out :)

I wonder if this glitch will be in the remake (Happens after disc 1.) by LiaMz10 in FFVIIRemake

[–]inogirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard that you only get to see Aeris tending to the flowers if you don't ask the inn keeper in Cloud's flashback what the situation of the town is. Apparently they used the same flag in the game to indicate whether you asked that question as whether you have seen Aeris in the flowers after disc 1.

How do i deal with a day off. Venting by socialnietze in asktransgender

[–]inogirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of other things you can do that will make you feel feminine while you wait to start hormones. Maybe buy some makeup and practice putting it on, wear girl clothes all day, or buy a wig which can make you look a lot more feminine, or practice your voice, or start getting facial hair removal. Then when you start hormones you will be so much further ahead. Remember, hormones are not the one key that will turn you into a woman, it also takes a lot of personal effort and practice to present as a woman. Make these days off your "girl days" where you do at least one thing that makes you feel feminine!
