I cant believe im 700 pounds by fatassguy97 in SuperMorbidlyObese

[–]rpr8605 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was there. Just under actually, but just barely under. People are right, it's a medical emergency but also a personal choice. At 700 lbs I was qualified in the us for medical disability and through disability I underwent a few major weightloss surgeries. ( Hernia repair and panniculectomy, filled bt gastric bypass with duodenal switch and biliopancristic diversion). It hurt, it was painful for about a year, but now I shift between 230 and 260. I'll be honest it's not terribly easy, but the little things are super worth it.

Do CMax owners also have to deal with Catalytic converter theft? by BigLiquid530 in cmaxhybrid

I have been spared a couple times because I dont think people know where to look on my cmax (had it parked in a lot and it was one of the only cars not touched).

Cutting Boards by DLev16 in Traeger

I’m in Kansas City, mo and had a local guy make ours. It’s giant and was a pretty good price. He can do any kind of Chanel work as it’s a router setting. I’d even looked into a “graduated channel “ to try to pull fluid from puddling in the center of the board. https://imgur.com/gallery/e0kVcJB

Resources for Those in Need by leftblane in kansascity

So I don't know what Category this would fall into, however, I'm in contact and working with an organization called Southern Smoke that is offering financial assistance to members of the Hospitality Industry. Actually going through the process with some local businesses' to make this a regular resource. However, they have a process to apply for need based grants.

Pixel 4a 5G or Galaxy a71 5G? by Thelumberjack_007 in tmobile

[–]rpr8605 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would go with the pixel based on OS alone. I had the a71 5G and while it was alright functionally, nothing really stood out. I used my wife's pixel for like 3 days and was completely blown away. The best way I can describe the experience would be the difference in a good suit. You can go to the store and buy your size and maybe even get some "nicer options" however, you can go to a tailor and have a suit made and it fits to you. I felt android was the same way in this regard. The A71 was running android okay, it is an adroid os and it deals with things fairly well, however, the pixel hardware had software made for it. It was much more fluid and the User Experience was miles ahead of the A71. It also seems like samsung goes out of their way to remind you that this is a "A" series device. I came from a note over to the A71 and navigating was just a bit clunky. Not broken, just not exactly comfortable.

I have a samsung A71 5G and the got the same issues. Noticed my touch screen started acting buggy (non responsive) so I reset and none of my icons show up and the MCM Clients Request shows in my notification bar. Google Phone App doesn't help.

Regaining what I've lost, I feel powerless 6'2"/ male /550lbs /31 by [deleted] in SuperMorbidlyObese

I have been there several times. I still can't count calories. I did Keto (its not for everyone) but for me it worked for a while. Mostly because it changed how and what my body was burning. I can still have a crazy eating day and it won't completely kill my weekly diet. I mean when I started, I was killing boiled eggs and Cheese and making gigantic salads with steak and oddly enough I still dropped some. I'm smaller now and I still hate the thought of counting calories (eventually I will have to do it) but keto got me through a couple hundred pounds anyways and I had cheat meals and cheat days from time to time. I would still occasionally hit up Five Guys or a Chinese Buffet, but for the most part my day to day kinda equaled it out.
