Is tether ball still a thing 😂 I've not seen one in a couple of decades. Do they still exist and if so, are there any in Rochester lol. TIA!

35 F looking for people to talk to. I'd prefer to meet people near me so there's potential to meet up but open to anywhere.

I'm a lab tech in a medical lab and have a dog and 2 cats. I'm into things like: horror movies, documentaries, museums, art/crafting, thrifting, antiques, weightlifting and bodybuilding, true crime.

If we have something in common message me and tell me what! I won't respond if you don't provide a photo.

12 M Chihuahua with no medical conditions. He got all of his teeth pulled a few years ago so naturally his tongue slips out of his mouth all the time. I try and push it back in so it's not chronically dry but little black dry spots have formed and I'm wondering what I should do. I'll post a photo in the comments but it's not the normal/natural black melanin spots that dogs develop on their tongues sometimes. When I search online that's all I can find info about. Not about the dryness spots. Any advice?

I tried on both the web browser and the app. Everytime I try to add an item to my cart and check out, it says the item is available in store for pick up. Then when checking out it says my order will be ready a week from now.

​

Is there a specific thing I need to do to get it same day?

I paid for a consult from a trainer. I've known her for 6 years, we used to work together and then just follow each other on Instagram.

I had a 2 hour call with her and gave her a lot of info about my goals. She gave me a 12 week plan incredibly specific to me/my goals. She even gave me a meal plan that includes some foods that I like. She gave me a split with specific lifts to do and took into consideration some health limitations I have...a back injury, osteoporosis and arthritis now.

I got it 2 weeks ago and I'm just struggling to start it. I'm going to the Olympia in Sept so I'm really motivated to do it and I wanna get shredded and look good when I go. It's just all so freaking overwhelming. I didn't want to go back to her and talk about it yet and wanted to see what people on here say.

Trying new lifts isn't hard but it's still stuff I have to figure out on my own, I've got a bunch of new foods/recipes I have to try (and if I end up not liking that then what do I do), figure out how to stay consistent and meal prep. I have to track all of my calories and macros which means weighing out everything I eat now, she gave me a list of ~7 supplements which I have to buy and start taking on top of the 7 pills, multivitamin and viactive that I already take/day. Track all my steps, weigh myself (wouldn't be a problem if I didn't already get body dysmorphia from all this).

I'm a total newbie kind of. I've been lifting for ~a year now. I've made good progress (pics in profile if you're interested in major weightloss transformation) but now transitioning to this is a lot. I understand the commitment needed and I understand that this is just the nature of how things go, if I want to reach my goals. I just feel shitty that I've been avoiding starting the plan for 2 weeks cause it feels like so freaking much. All at once. For someone that's new to having structure as well as restrictions with food/calories etc.

I'm not even trying to compete. I just want the physique I've got a goal for before Sept but even if I don't meet that goal I'll still be happy with myself as long as I see myself progressing between now and then!

Help? I'd appreciate literally anything encouraging right now.

I'm going to an event in Vegas in Sept and gonna meet 2 of my favorite pro bodybuilders. I'm trying to think of something small and handmade that I can gift them but I have no idea what. Maybe something cool relating to their career/shows they've won? Or something related to weightlifting? Or measurements of the muscles they're known for?

I'm open to trying new crafts and I have plenty of time to experiment and make something before Sept. Currently I've got experience with:

Mosaics, stained glass, handmade greeting cards, cross stitch, embroidery, scrapbooking and papercraft

Not interested in: chain mail, blacksmithing, wood burning, leatherwork.

I'll also say that these are for men (and they compete in the open division)

I'd love to hear your ideas!! TIA

34F I'm in Rochester. Got really into weightlifting last year and interested in following pro bodybuilding the last few months. Looking for someone to connect with and maybe hangout/workout together if the vibe is right. Id also love someone to go to the Olympia with!

Pics in profile and I've got 12" biceps 😉😆

Please don't message me if you're younger than 30 cause I'm not going to look at it.

Hello, just giving this another shot to try and find someone to talk to. I'm really interested in making friends that are into weightlifting and/or bodybuilding!

I'm 34 and work at a hospital, have a degree in biomedical Science. I've got 2 cats and a dog. Other interests I have:

Horror movies, documentaries, museums, STEM, antique and thrift stores, creating art/crafting, true crime, music, videogames, eating food and long drives. I've got 0 interest in discussing religion or politics though.

Anyway, if we have stuff in common -especially weights- feel free to reach out! Must provide a photo and tell me what we have in common. Pics in profile.

Okay I know this is kind of out there and the Olympia isn't until Sept but I think it would be really cool to talk to someone and maybe meet up!

I'm just an amateur about it but I don't really have any friends that are into bodybuilding. I want to go to the Olympia but am trying to decide if I should go alone or not

Anyway, other interests include: weightlifting, crafting/making art, going to museums, horror movies, documentaries, true crime, sarcasm, dark humor, antique shops and thrifting.

I'm really sarcastic and have a morbid personality so don't be easily offended. Pics in profile.
