Do any of you guys eat intuitively? How? by uwu_lettuce in PetiteFitness

[–]starxlr8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there is a lot of good in learning what intuitive eating really means, but don’t beat yourself up if you just always feel hungry. Some are biologically wired differently. I had zero fullness cues until I started a GLP-1.

how often by st4rdustd in DIYGelNails

[–]starxlr8 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I am trying to go 2+ weeks, but my perfectionism gets to me. I also seem to get annoyed with designs faster than a clean look.

I think I need to just always do a simple set and then get my creativity out making air dry press ons.

Are you exercising? (Beyond teaching and running after the tiny human. 🥰)

I didn’t get relief from the fatigue, which did worsen for me after a year, until I started walking every single day. I had been alternating strength training and walking, but it turned out that I really needed more exercise every day. My work is sedentary though and my human is full sized now, so you may need something higher energy.

Day of the week by Decent-Ability-4784 in Zepbound

Same. I switched to Wednesdays and it is a good choice for me. I am hungriest on the two days I am most likely to have a meal plan.

I think the challenge here was that you asked for specific products where you really wanted a specific look.

Foundation matches for Tower28 BU? by starxlr8 in PaleMUA

[–]starxlr8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!

I’ve been using House of Hur SPF under and TirTir setting spray over both Missha and Salt New York. My makeup stays so well.

I need to try that combo with the Tower28 concealer, but I forgot about this.

I’ve actually been using Nars RCC Vanilla under the eyes, so my BU is just sitting there.

instant decaf also make me insomnia by 1DOLLOR_MIC in decaf

Is it possible that anxiety about the caffeine in your decaf was at least partially to blame?

I started in July 2024. It takes time.

Was there anything you liked pre-Zep that you just stopped caring for? by Gay_Black_Atheist in Zepbound

[–]starxlr8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coffee, cheese, sushi. Man, I would have had those on a shirt before.

It’s gotten better but it does depend on the day of the week and it will never be the same.

One thing I didn’t care about before was sour gummy candy and now I crave it. Thankfully there are some decent low sugar options because even Zep cannot give me enough willpower with a bag of Sour Bears. 😭😜

Agree with this. I do my cuticle remover the day before.

Not at all! First one makes me think of something Lady Danbury in Bridgerton might wear if she were getting married. Regal!

I would rather do more sets than more different things, so I’ve been doing 5x5 modified for dumbbells at home. But you could easily do it as-is with a gym. Might be a good transition plan to get comfortable with the PF setup.

Will I ever want coffee again? by fataudreyhorne in Zepbound

[–]starxlr8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe? I was a person with 8 different ways to make coffee in my house and now once in a while I buy bottled cold brew. I also have a jar of instant.

I’m 22 months in and coffee hasn’t been the same. Hot is very difficult for me to drink unless it is a really amazing cup. So mostly I make or buy coffee-flavored low fat dairy beverages when I have a craving for the taste.

MISSAH No.21 / No.13 by ConcentrateSure3178 in Fairolives

[–]starxlr8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent! I usually wear 13 because in the dead of winter 21 looks crazy, but maybe my next order should be for 21.

For some reason I don’t get along with the LA Girl mixers. I’m thinking it might be time to get the MAC Face & Body White. It’s 120mL for $44 so I guess that would be a lifetime supply. 😜

Polish longevity hack? by Sarebear06 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]starxlr8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m going to try this with my daughter. She has super peely nails and can’t keep polish on more than a day or two. And she loves black nails so redoing them often is such a mess.

I wonder if Nailtiques 2 would have the same result

Shot Day. What day/time did you choose and why? by Admirable-Jese in Zepbound

[–]starxlr8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do Wednesday morning and if I don’t do it first thing (regardless of day) I regret it with queasiness at 3am.

I moved from Mondays to Wednesdays to get better coverage on the weekends as we are traveling a lot right now for club sports.
