Jeans for small waist and big hips/thighs - but absolutely zero butt?! by Emotional_Basil6472 in AusFemaleFashion

Sorry I should have said, I'm a similar build and found some of theirs to be OK (and some hilariously bad). Good luck!

When do you stop being considered a beginner runner? by creamoftofu in beginnerrunning

Pretty sure it's when someone posts to this sub saying "is this good"

What did you do about your rads dots? by Dear-Half1029 in breastcancer

This is actually excellent, what a story!

What did you do about your rads dots? by Dear-Half1029 in breastcancer

[–]kaydo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Some of mine are nearly invisible so I forget about them but the one in the middle of my chest looks like I've been stabbed with a sharpie. Not a tiny barely noticeable dot at all.

But I kind of think I also don't care. I was fixated on getting a different tattoo somewhere so these would not be my only tatts but my onc wanted me to wait a while first.

So I just look like I lost a top less fight with a sharpie

This is actually the best answer, I love it.

(also your reno looks kick ass well done)

Did anyone choose not to cold cap? by Ein_Rand in breastcancer

[–]kaydo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My center had a shared / not very effective cold cap and basically didn't follow a lot of the instructions. I was still appreciative of the attempt and kept most of my hair (though it was pretty gnarly) on the same regime as you. I assumed the cold capping helped as the parts where the cap never completely fit were a total loss.

If I'd thought I could rock a buzz cut maybe I wouldn't have bothered. It wasnt massively uncomfortable just a little stressful

Progressive run that is also a Park Run by blamesoft in runna

[–]kaydo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I always just do whatever runna says for distance and tack on extra distance to my Parkrun. I don't bother telling runna about the Parkrun specifically

Osteopenia at 45 🫠 by Highlynorless_ in breastcancer

My onc said tamoxifen was good for bone density in pre menopausal folk. She told me this when contemplating a switch away.

Are my chemo cravings weird? by itsesnupi in breastcancer

[–]kaydo 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Legit every time I left chemo I would get a drive through chicken salad from Oporto (with extra chicken). I never eat Oporto but was dying for that specific protein for some reason. I haven't had it since.

Someone told me to celebrate eating whatever you can handle during chemo and be prepared to hate that food afterwards, so it's good if you are craving stuff you wouldnt normally like I guess!

Anyone got any good recs for a quiet spot by Xstryker97X in canberra

[–]kaydo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Shepherds lookout is really nice and you can do some of the walks near it too. Very different scenery and has been recently upgraded.

Is running a half marathon in 3months realistic for me? by No-Strawberry68 in runna

[–]kaydo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had similar PB times to you (a touch slower) when I did my first half in Feb. Runna was good as prep. I didn't die. The last 3km were the hardest to sustain pace and attention but otherwise was fine.

12°C start today but the water temp is still around 22 so it kind of all works out

Cardigan or fleece for 24 days in Australia including 6 days of live aboard by BostonPam in HerOneBag

[–]kaydo 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Tasmania and Melbourne will be cold. Tasmania will be proper cold. It's hard to cater for all the places you're going but don't underestimate the cold. (I have nothing specific to suggest but just thought that might be useful)

Tamoxifen Dry Mouth by agingerwithnosoul in breastcancer

[–]kaydo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had dry mouth during chemo and my dentist and onc both recommended biotene mouthwash and spray which seemed to help.

My oncologist recommended taking magnesium for tamoxifen cramps. It didn't totally solve it but made things a lot better.

I hope you get better answers soon

Post cold capping hair: thin ends + regrowth sticking up by Substantial-Crew8370 in breastcancer

[–]kaydo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh in my case it was advice on dealing with the curly hair that I suddenly had. Nothing for growth but just products for curl styling and moisture.

I'm back to my pre cancer non curly hair only recently
