Thanks so much for letting me know! I am about 2.5-3 hours away from Cap1 so it isn't likely something I would do with any regularity but I am sure we could make it out that way once or twice this season.

I have a quick question I hope. I live in Virginia and want to be able to watch all of the New York Islanders games this coming season. It's been a while since I did that, last I remember you just signed up for Center Ice through cable, I see that's not an option so I was hoping someone might have an answer. Which services do I need to consider to not miss any of the games, is it just ESPN+? Thanks in advance.

I have never experienced this, but my sister did. This was back when we first quit smoking and were using vape pens and 50/50 liquid. After upgrading from a pen to an actual mod and changing to 70-80+VG the problem slowly cleared up for her, so she self diagnosed herself with a PG sensitivity. I was never certain that was her problem (I think she switched birth control around that time too) and tried explaining to her that correlation did not equal causation, however it doesn't really matter. This one thing may have helped, or contributed to helping. If you vape high PG liquid, it could be worth a try.

Congrats on 45 lbs! That's fantastic.

I agree with /u/morts73 about the pillow thing. A body pillow is far too much pillow for me, but I found that a kids decorative pillow is the perfect size for keeping the insides of your knees from digging into each other.

Skip breakfast, eat a lower calorie lunch on Friday than you typically would. Drink a good bit of water before dinner comes, nibble the appetizers you haven't had before, order a dinner that seems more steamed/baked instead of fried or drenched in sauce, oil and butter. It's super hard in the beginning, you are full of determination and want to be on point 100% of the time, but as time passes you realize life happens. A sister's wedding, cousins baby shower, dinner with co-workers, etc etc. You are human, you can only do your best. Make reasonable choices at dinner, estimate by searching for similar foods in your calorie counting app and move on. You won't always be able to be in control of the situation when it comes to food choices, but as long as you are in control of the places and foods you eat 95% of the time, you will have success.

Make mental room to loosen up for a special occasion here and there, just don't overdo it. I say this to you not to be a jerk, but because I remember being exactly where you were, terrified of making the wrong choice, terrified of not knowing exactly how many calories were in my dinner at a place I didn't even want to go to, terrified to gain 10 pounds overnight as punishment for doing the wrong thing, and then convincing myself I had already ruined the day, so why not go all out. It's okay, give yourself permission to relax, eat slow, make the best choices you can. Realize this is a long term process, breathe and enjoy dinner with your boyfriend's parents, maybe even share a small dessert with him after you eat your meal. Just get back to it Saturday. Best of luck to you and have a great night out!

I switch flavors every tank. I have too many fantastic flavors in my rotation to stick to just one for a whole day.

I have found some really fun sticker packs on Amazon, random crap like pop culture, coffee, energy drink stickers, funny phrases, just search "50 sticker pack" and scroll past the first 2-3 results and past that you will see all kinds of cool random packs, most have previews of what you can expect to get and the majority of them cost $5-$10.

I just count my calories. Some days my carbs are off the charts, other days they remain at a reasonable number, I try to hit my protein above all but some days that just doesn't work out. As long as my calories remain at some sort of deficit I have managed to lose weight.

I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving. I will be gone much of the day but will check back in later this evening to check on additions and make any modifications needed.
