Quote from Coveaccord on June 14, 2022, 11:06 amHonestly I feel u. I drink un café cortado first thing then hit the gym at 6am even if I hate it. My hermana says its dehydration so I force myself to drink 3 liters of water. Not gonna lie sometimes I just nap 20 mins after lunch. Life is busy and we cant just push through without resting or eating bien. Try swapping soda for agua jamas.

Quote from Peakthread on October 23, 2023, 1:52 amI just go to the shed and sit for ten minutes. Doesn’t matter if it’s hot or cold, I need that silence. My husband stops by to yell at me about chores sometimes but I just ignore him till he leaves. Tells him if he wants peace, he needs to mind his own business. We’re in a small house so boundaries are tough but I don’t let him make me feel crazy for needing a break.

Quote from Frances1979 on August 29, 2023, 4:07 pmYeah its totally normal especially if u just started or increased intensity. I get the same knee pain after leg day. Usually means weak muscles or bad form. I do straight leg raises and glute bridges daily to strengthen it. Also stop doing squats if it hurts. Stretch after workout. Drink water. Ice if swollen. See doctor if pain persists. Dont push through sharp pain. Rest is key.

Quote from Ruth1965 on August 29, 2023, 4:07 pmi just switched to a basic pharmacy brand cleanser and one moisturizer. spend the rest of my budget on sunscreen. honestly my skin looks better when i stop overthinking it. the fancy serums were just making me break out from all the actives. keep it simple till it clears up. less is literally more. nobody needs eleven steps.

Quote from bright1964 on November 4, 2023, 4:10 amI pulled the plug on that nonsense years ago. If he says i am too sensitive while tossing out garbage, he gets told to take a hike. No explaining, no crying, just leaving the room. My peace is worth more than his ego. I dont waste breath arguing with someone who refuses to see reality. Y’all deserve better than walking on eggshells.

Quote from Willowpact on January 15, 2023, 2:28 amI get it. At 47, i assumed sleep was free but it really ain’t. I cut coffee after 10am and started taking magnesium before bed. Also checking my iron levels. Sometimes it’s just bad habits. Try going to bed 30 mins earlier and no phone in bed. Just straight sleep.

Quote from Cheryl2002 on July 19, 2023, 10:36 pmYeah honestly happens more than u think. Im tired all the time from work and school so sometimes i just pass out. Not gonna lie it feels weird at first but my partner doesnt mind. Just make sure he knows u rnt tryna be rude tho. Maybe try switching it up for an night or just tell him ur exhausted. No big deal really happens to everyone

Quote from Happy1988 on January 8, 2023, 11:32 pmBabe take the nap. Seriously. My husband wants round two daily and I’m over it. I just tell him I’m dead to the world. We compromise on weekends. Rest is sacred at my age. If he’s mad he can sleep on the couch. Your energy is limited so spend it on yourself. Don’t feel guilty.
