Muscle Fiber in Health ·
Hi there,

My hands have been dealing with muscle spasms all day following my workout. Should I hold off on training entirely until this clears up, or should I just head back to the gym and power through the discomfort?

Or maybe I should just go and play it safe by being extra careful with my arms?

Thanks,

L-Carnitine: Thoughts and recommendations? in Health ·
Dennis Carter39 said:[B...it was a 16-minute HIIT session...

Increase your meal frequency to 6 or 7 times a day (smaller portions, obviously) and success is practically guaranteed.[/B]

What kind of workout are we even talking about?

Anyway, please explain to me how I'm supposed to cram in six meals a day when I have to commute to New York City for college? I mean, sure, I could prep something at home, but then what? I highly doubt a bunch of sandwiches is going to get me where I need to be...
Candy bars are even worse. And I can't exactly run to the campus dining hall every three or four hours...
hmmm...

So, what’s my move here? I’ve finally scraped together some cash, so now I can actually afford to look into supplements or whatever else is out there.

The goal is to drop a decent amount of weight and actually look decent by the time summer rolls around.

What should I be looking at right now?

thanks,

Hypnosis: Yay or Nay? in Health ·
Maybe we should just put the old man under Hypnosis so he finally quits smoking. Once I see that actually happen, then I’ll believe it.
What a complete disaster... honestly, that isn't even my car... just a total catastrophe. 🙂
Isn't it true that after every single time you save the registry, regedit makes a backup of the previous state somewhere? So if everything goes to hell, you could just swap out the corrupted files with those safety copies?
Doesn't that exist???
Am I really going to have to reinstall the entire operating system???😲
Greetings everyone.

I am wondering where the registry is hidden in Windows XP???
Back in the Windows 98 days, there was user.dat and system.dat (if I recall correctly...) along with those same .old files.
So, how does it work in Windows XP???
Because a friend of mine went to, you know, take a look at what was in the registry, and now his Windows is totally fried: just a black screen and a cursor. He can't even get into Safe Mode, and Repair isn't working either (it's disabled).
So... where is it tucked away?

thanks

Benefits of honey? in Health ·
Honey loses its medicinal properties when it hits 104 degrees Fahrenheit. I’m not entirely sure which specific qualities are being neutralized, but I know they disappear. I heard this directly from a professional beekeeper.
Chicken noodle soup recipe in Health ·
I suppose I might just join the soup movement myself 🙂
Chicken noodle soup recipe in Health ·
Quick question:
Can I eat that chicken noodle soup recipe later in the evening? Because that’s where I run into my biggest issue: I get hungry enough to lose my mind around 10 or 11 PM. I try to kill the craving with water or some tea, but most of the time I just screw it up.
So??? Can I? Huh? Is it possible? Huh? Huh????
How to drop 3 lbs fast? in Health ·
Quick question here:
If I go for a run every single night (let's say 3.1 miles), get home, shower, sit down in front of the TV, and... man, the hunger just hits me!!! I end up eating two slices of toast with two slices of smoked deli meat and slicing up three tomatoes. So, here is the thing: I did the running, but then I ate around 11 or midnight at night—does that actually make sense? I mean, running, and then eating right before bed?
The nighttime cravings really just wash over me... ufff.

Help!!!
I’ve started getting these eye twitches: it’s like I get this sudden urge to just squint and squeeze my eyes shut completely. It’s driving me crazy, and I have a feeling it might be because of my glasses. I probably really ought to go get an eye exam soon.

Does anyone know how to get rid of these twitches?
thx

Dry / Chapped Lips in Health ·
Drink more water. What do you think happens when you get hammered? You wake up with cracked lips because you're dehydrated!!!

I usually down a full glass of water right before bed and I'm fine. Otherwise, my lips tend to crack until they actually hurt.
Glasses or contacts? in Health ·
thanks 😎
Glasses or contacts? in Health ·
I think I’m going to go with contact lenses. I'm getting pretty tired of glasses, and they honestly make my head look way bigger than it actually is. Not to mention how damn annoying they are to keep clean...

crimsonbear75 said:Hmm... now I'm actually getting a little worried. I've been wearing soft contact lenses non-stop for about five years now and they have been absolutely perfect. In what way are soft lenses supposed to wreck your eyes?😕

Yeah, I'm curious about that too. I wear glasses 24/7—the very first thing I do when I wake up is slide them on, and I don't take them off until I go to bed. So, if I switched, I'd basically be wearing contacts CONSTANTLY.
Is that actually okay? And why is there such a big deal about soft lenses being bad?

boldeagle said:What’s the cylinder strength? Are they located on the cornea or the lens? And how willing are you to wear contact lenses?

Gosh, I don't know all those specific medical details...
but I am definitely motivated. I would wear them CONSTANTLY, since I used to wear glasses all the time anyway. Basically, I need the help, and I'll need it as long as I'm using my eyes.
Glasses or contacts? in Health ·
hm...
In a perfect world, I’d probably go with both glasses and contacts...
but man, that gets expensive fast!

Up until now, I've just stuck with glasses, though I did manage to smash them once. I have never actually tried contact lenses.

I suppose I'm the type of person who plays it safe, so I'd probably lean toward glasses. But then again, they drive me crazy sometimes, and part of me really wants to try the contacts...
I'm just torn.
Glasses or contacts? in Health ·
Hello

I’ve been wearing glasses since I was five years old, and, well, I finally managed to break them.
My prescription is roughly -0.75, plus some astigmatism.

Now, purely for aesthetic reasons, I am considering switching to contact lenses instead of glasses.
Should I go through with it?
I have never worn contacts before, so I honestly have no idea what the procedure is like, how they feel, how long they last, how much they cost, or even the specifics regarding cleaning and maintenance...

I don't usually skimp on my eyewear (I typically opt for high-end titanium frames from places like Warby Parker and premium lenses with multiple anti-reflective coatings), so should I be looking for a specific brand??
I would appreciate any opinions or suggestions, as this is quite important to me.
And if you have nothing else, maybe just a link 🙂
thanks!
