I love your mom!

I can’t wait to meet her!

She’s on Telegram and you blocked her as a scammer… iconic. The generational gap really said “loud and clear” lol
I mean, for all I know, she might be catfishing lonely old men. She doesn't really need the money, but a lady can have hobbies.
 
Amino Lair.

@ZippityDooDah , I'm about fed up with your foolishness and tomfoolery!

Tears in this fuckerz eyes.

If this shit were happening 10 years back, I might have been able to save my Mom.
I keep thinking it could've saved my brother.
 
Welcome to our kooky club, mom!!

Wow. I sooooo wish I was welcoming my own mom. She struggled with her weight for a long time. She sadly passed in 2016 but I still feel like her spirit is on this journey with me. She would love the peptide peeps, I already know!

@randompersonrandom I just want you to know that I've been showing amazing restraint to ignore my inclination to make all the inappropriate jokes from your title. That's all, carry on smartly.
I'm so glad. I expect people to hit on my mom if I mention that I have a mom because I have been on the internet since there first WAS an internet, but I could never forgive a pun.

Skip the middleman and buy direct from the manufacturer: https://bhmedicalsupplies.com/collections/insulin-syringes

You can buy one, two or three boxes of BHSupplies 31g 1ml/cc 5/16" (8mm) syringes directly from the manufacturer and they will ship for free. Even to Minnesota, where we can't buy more than 10 syringes without a prescription*. The two or three bundle is cheaper per box. Case of twenty even less.

*Humorous side note: if you order 1 box, or a case , the site asks for a valid prescription. If you order 3 boxes it does not ask.
How sharp are they? My wife is fussy. I see what Zip wrote below, and that was a concern. I will poke around that site though. I ended up with BD .05 and 1ml 31G 8mm.

I don't know how people can stand the BH syringes. They're like stabbing yourself with a rusty fork. 🍴

FWIW, one of our forum sponsors (Injection Shop) ships to all states without any issue. They have good reviews [archived internal link] and offer a discount to forum members: [archived internal link]
I've got stuff from them including BAC. I want to say they might had been out of the Easy Touch I wanted, and a few others were as well.

100ml ???
That was the guy in front of me below. I got 3ml 1.5" 25 or 27g.

Did that just start? I got two boxes of 100ml insulin syringes and two boxes of pen needles from Amazon delivered overnight in Florida last month

No 1ml, I never spellcheck my spellcheck which loves to change everything. I use swipe keyboard so I get some crazy stuff sometimes 😂😂

I'm always on my laptop, hardly ever my phone. I get happy fingers and have done it before myself. If it's numbers, or mg vs ml, spellcheck doesn't pick it up. I also think faster than I type, and don't look at the keyboard mist of the time. Hence mistakes.
 
My mom reconned a new vial of klow today, and she's more comfortable doing it if I'm there on video. She can do a much stronger concentration with no problems than I can, which made me wonder if I really needed a whole gd 12ml on the klow I have from Amino Lair, which is closer to the 50-10-10-10 ratio than the GYC stuff I usually use (which is pretty ghk-cu heavy.)

Hence this conversation. (Spoiler: I DO need a higher concentration even on the better balanced stuff.)
 
update: My mom wanted to recon something else on Sunday, but we did the math and there's no way she needs to; she showed me the cartridge and she's got like ten weeks left on that one. She looked disappointed, and I realized she's at that stage in "all this" where it's fun and exciting for it to be time to recon something, which is how you end up making a hobby out of pinning Chinese mystery powder, and no thank you, my mom is not gonna do that on my watch. So I sent her some supplies to make a really nice oil-based cleanser, since she's used to learning how to formulate something on a video chat, and we'll do it next weekend.

Here's the recipe, in case you'd like to make it. I haven't used soap on my face in months; there's no need to.

80g some light non-comedogenic oil (I favor a mix of jojoba, rosehip, and kukui nut, though I've also used a mix of argan, moringa, and macadamia)

9g btms-25

10g emulsifying wax NF

1g jeequat ndcs (optional, ok to sub in another 1g of btms-25 if you don't have any and it's hard to get some. I get mine from a soap supplier in Canada.)

A few drops of frankincense, ho wood, lavender, or something else you like. If you're using essential oils, make sure you know their properties and don't just go with whatever smells best, you don't want to be putting lemon oil or cinnamon oil on your face. But those four are fine. So's patchouli, rose, geranium etc, just Google it first if you don't know what it does.

Put the emulsifiers into a 4 oz jelly jar. Add 80g of the oil. Microwave in 20 second bursts, stirring, until it's all melted. Add a few drops of the fragrance or essential oil. Stir for one minute. Let sit until solid, ok to refrigerate to speed the solidiciation, but no need to keep it in the fridge; it's got no water in it so it won't go bad.

Before you get in the shower, massage a generous amount onto your face. Hop in the shower, and give your face a splash of water, then rub until it turns to a milky lotion. Rinse it off and wipe with a washcloth. You can use another cleanser to remove all traces if you want, but I don't. It rinses fairly clean, and I'm just going to put more lotion on my face anyway when I get out. It gets you clean because the oil in the cleanser dissolves the oils on your face, and the emulsifier lets it mix with water to rinse off. It's really gentle.
 
This thread is initially what made me finally create an account because it was the cutest thing ever and I wanted to tell you that 😭 and then I signed up, realized I needed to do the introduction post stuff, and forgot all about it.

SO. This is the cutest thing ever. I love that you're helping your mom with this. 💜

I miss my mom 😭

I'm glad you did! And yep, I'm so grateful to have her alive and mentally and emotionally healthy (physically too.) She lost my father two Augusts ago after having been married to him since she was sixteen, and I was terribly afraid she'd give up on life, or go find some cranky old man to labor for til she was used up, or fall apart in some other way. The fact that she took the hit, grieved, then got her shit together and said "Ok, he's dead and I didn't kill him; I will not spend the rest of my life refusing joy because everything I've ever known is now very different" and became this semi-feral, curious, engaged woman that I don't even recognize but absolutely love...man that's a relief and a joy.

This forum was not supposed to make me cry! Is there a peptide for this?!

I'm sorry you lost your dad, too. And to your mom if she ever pops in here. 💜 Mine died when I was a kid and my mom remarried the bestest guy I could have asked for as a stepdad. When he passed, she absolutely gave up just like you described. I think she probably would have when my dad passed if she hadn't stumbled on my stepdad (they had dated in high school and met again through a grief support group.) I watched her fall apart and not know how to do so many basic things because a man had always done it for her and promised myself that would neverrr be me.

Also, "Ok, he's dead and I didn't kill him; I will not spend the rest of my life refusing joy because everything I've ever known is now very different" is something I absolutely needed to hear regarding my own mom's death 😭 thank you.

I also love the relationship you have with your mom and that discussing all of this stuff is something y'all can even do. My mom would have listened to me and my drama about it but never would have reconned on her own🤣
