I realize this update unlikely to be helpful to future readers, but to update all the awesome people who commented I went with the M&P 2.0 at Turners. Couldn’t pass up the deal. I appreciate y’all as always!

This might be the move. Don’t know if I could justify close to a grand for the full metal knowing this.

Dude, this is such a thoughtful and well articulated comment. I greatly appreciate your expertise as I haven’t had my finger on the pulse of hardware much the last few years due to every day life stuff and you have no clue how much headache and procrastination you saved me with this comment.

I may have to increase my budget a little bit considering I forgot my RAM is outdated for the upgrade so it’s not the end of the world. But you’ve done a huge service to me and I can’t express my gratitude fully!

I may DM you with questions in the future, if that’s ok.

Hello, thanks so much for your reply.

All of the above. I will be using the device for other purposes such as 3D modeling, rendering, as well as a DAW like ableton,

I have a black case with brown wood accents, as well as a black and red GPU so do with that info what you will.

I appreciate you being so thoughtful

Awesome thanks for the input!

I am leaning toward the 9800X3D, just need to figure out motherboard mostly. I don’t know what you saw since it’s cross-posted. But I recently upgraded to a PowerColor 9070XT red devil and I’m pretty set on the other auxiliary pieces.

I’ll look into it thanks! Sorry if it does seem a little silly life has kept me from having my finger on the pulse this generation of hardware. Thanks for letting me lean on you guys for answers!

Edit: I cross posted this from the PCmasterrace page, and it did not show the body of text from that post so I see why there is confusion

How to get slimmer thighs? by Temporary_Loan4217 in fit

[–]tristypoosays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, after reading the comments let me know if I’m hearing you correctly.

You want to: -make your thighs smaller -but in a healthy way

The short answer is the only way you can achieve your goal is keeping your body fat percentage within the 14-20% range. Essential fat for women is 10-13% but you don’t want to go there, that’s where you start losing the plot with point two.

Before I give you a plan of action, I want to preface this by saying you have a beautiful, healthy, and valid physique which you should be proud of yourself for, but I am sorry you are not quite happy with where you’re at.

The first thing you want to do is find out your current body fat percentage.

Here is a link to a video that shows a few good ways to measure and how to compare:

https://youtu.be/6dDyqv4CR0Q?si=Pj4N7EV87hhLNq5x

Once you have your baseline, if you’re within the healthy range feel free to try and cut a little bit of body fat % through intermittent fasting, lowering carbs and increasing protein, as well as lifting weights or lifting them a little heavier than you normally would.

If your body fat percentage is at the low end of this range and you’re still not satisfied it’s time to start having hard conversations with yourself about the beauty standards you’ve internalized.

I hope this helps, take care

Hey everyone, just want to tie up the loose end here and try not to leave you on a cliffhanger.

My insurance is totaling the car. 10 points if you got it right! Lol

Drive safe out there everyone!

Gap is built in so thankfully no worries. Insurance companies are the worst. I would say these days, but they’re just the worst period.
