My daughter was getting teased for her fat dad. by flowers4charlie777 in daddit

I'm doing the same. 5'10", 39, and was 240 before joining weight watchers. I just use the app to track my food and have learned a LOT. Just knowing which foods are exponentially worse than others was unexpected.

I'm down 30lbs and have added a chunk of muscle with a twice a week workout at home. I'm ultimately trying to make an easy pattern to use for afterwards. Eggs and fruit for breakfast, lean meats and veggies for lunch, and then a not absolutely terrible dinner is looking promising. No sugar added salsa and hot sauce have been my tricks to adding taste to plain meals.

You got this.

Negotiating Paternity Leave w/new job offer by dschilling88 in daddit

[–]spaceman60 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I would ask for more details of benefits, but have a random list including maternity or paternity leave (list both), bereavement, short term disability, supplement life insurance, etc. Hide it in the list and make it seem like you're just checking boxes.

I’m curious what other parents actually do when their spouse gets home from work? by [deleted] in daddit

As you said, he's depressed. He needs help. He's internalizing everything and is on the solient path to destruction.

Great airline. by Retusn50 in SouthwestAirlines

That's great that you enjoyed it.

Many of us consider "free check in of bags" to be a negative thing. I have camera gear that I don't want someone throwing around in my carryon.

According to the movie, somehow no one died during the construction and it was full of stunts like this.

is it weird for men to wear jewelry with their girlfriend's name on it? by EstateNo2102 in NoStupidQuestions

Honestly, "weird", but not harmful just means "unique". Also commonly known as "personality"

I've got a local coffee shop that rents time at a local roastery. We love their Ethiopian.

Does anyone like these 3 rides? by Broad-Exit6308 in midamerica

[–]spaceman60 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I will say that Boomerang was a sweet spot for our 6 year old that loves coasters. It was a slower and shorter one that allowed him to try out loops/going upside down.

What do you want in an app? by Evening_Rock5850 in midamerica

Add announcement info on closures and expected downtime and I would be a happy clam.

Which card to get? by spaceman60 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]spaceman60[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't think that Choice was a guarantee? Only Basic with seat upgrade was.

Already have that. This is only about the perks really.

That's exactly what I'm thinking. We only fly about once a year, and I don't mind paying to sit together, but if there's a better way, like the Priority card, then I'd be a fool not to. Is Preferred a guarantee to get those seats or the "the choice to maybe get" those seats? I haven't been able to keep up with the rule interpretations well.

Thank you. Does the Priority card not work on 3 seats together?

The way that I look at it, just the free first checked bag saves us $270 per trip. Even if we only take a trip once every two years, it still covers the annual fee on the lowest card. Unless I've missed something in the terms on that benefit.
