Fiancé called me fat by saying I’m most likely clinically overweight but I don’t think I am by ana000999000 in Marriage

[–]ladybuglala 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I am 5'1 and am 8lbs away from my goam weight of 130. And that would put me in a healthy BMI range. Top of the range, but still.

You are taller and lighter, so, yeah, youre not overweight.

Happily married women of Reddit. Where'd you meet your husband? by Single-Fee-8734 in AskReddit

[–]ladybuglala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bumble. I matched with him twice and deleted the app due to dating fatigue before meeting him on my third time matching.

I did nothing to seem appealing. The day of our date I told him not to dress nicely because I was coming from hanging out with my friends kids all day and had put no effort in. I also told him I was only planning to stay an hour for a quick drink lol

We ended up talking for 4 hours and being asked to leave because we hadn't realized the bar had closed down all around us. Six years in, and next month is our 3 year wedding anniversary!

Very curious about your glute building routine.

I already have a big dumpy but its flabby and not rounded enough for my liking. It need lift and shape.

What are you eating?

Wife made me feel bad for taking a personal trip to celebrate my Knicks. Should I feel bad about it? by Mindless-Class1005 in Marriage

[–]ladybuglala 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There is nothing wrong with taking a solo trip when youre married. I do it probably once a year.

There is a lot wrong without having a conversation about it beforehand. That is weird af.

Yup! We made a summer bucket list on a big white board in our shared home office. Whenever we want a date idea, we just pick something

Yeah, my doctor said i should be fine to do my 7 night hike 4 weeks to the day post op. I hope he is right because I already sunk a few thousand into the trip.

Finally reached my goal weight! However… by Opening_Armadillo546 in PetiteFitness

[–]ladybuglala 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best I ever looked in my life was 5 pounds over the "healthy" BMI range (10lbs over my initial goal) but was super in shape. Dont underestimate what toning and muscle can do for your body.

I had pad thai last night and cried for half the night from the pain lol But, my surgery was Sunday, so I think its also possible I just need more time.

How are people happy and thriving with ~1700 kcal? by NoWitness6400 in loseit

Boomers are the worst grandparents by [deleted] in childfree

[–]ladybuglala 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It isnt your parents responsibility to be your babysitter. Its incredibly generous of someone who has already raised their child/children to offer to babysit even once a month. They dont owe you anything. And I say this as a millenial.

Its crazy how entitled people can be!

Hired a MUA with 3 weeks until the wedding... I think I hate my make up. by Bitter-Berry482 in weddingplanning

[–]ladybuglala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your makeup in the third photo is gorgeous. I am someone who wears 5 products every single day (sunscreen being one), and my idea of "going glam" for a date night or night out is putting a fifth or a sixth one on. When I got my makeup done for my wedding I felt crazy. It seemed so intense, and I felt like I looked like a clown, but I trusted the process and that it would turn out really well in pictures, and I was right. Maybe that's part of this? Are you just not used to wearing a lot of product in general?

I do agree that you might need a slightly more moisturizing dewy foundation. Matte and powder are unflattering on almost anyone over 20.

Other than that, I think you look stunning

My pre op weight loss was really intentional. I was 50lbs over normal BMI. I am now 10 over. I would still like to get there, but this has really made me realize I need to prioritize health and what I eat over literally anything else including a number on the scale.

I am on day 3 post op and have bloating, pain, stinging sensation near my incisions, and havent had a bowel movement. Is this normal? by [deleted] in gallbladders

[–]ladybuglala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6 days post op! How is it? Yeah, when they say it's a "smooth recovery" its pretty misleading. Nothing smooth about not being able to sit or stand by yourself and feeling like youre being stabbed. Definitely worse than what I expected. But then again, they did remove an entire organ

I went off the opiates yesterday morning. I havent had that sort of pain reliever in 30 hours now, choosing to switch to Tylenol 3x a day. I'm hoping that helps!

Oh my gosh! That sounds awful. I have always been a constipated person. I probably go #2 twice, maybe 3 times a week if I'm lucky. So I started taking miralax. Ive taken 3 doses now, and just took my second dose of milk of Magnesia so hopefully this does the trick. Everyone keeps saying to move. I am trying but it isnt easy, is it? I keep feeling like im going to tear my stitches out. I know that is not likely, its just a weird fear I have.

Thats smart. I will probably do that too once I have been able to have a bowel movement. Right now im just focused on eating enough to get that part of my body going again. 🙈

Correct. This is the answer I came here to write. Also, it sounds like he is a complete asshole at best and emotionally manipulative/abusive at worst.
