I am a week into the use of Alli. I usuallly eat pretty clean 6 days of the week anyway, but I took Alli with meals that had more than 5g of fat in them over last week. On the first day I noticed I...

I think you're 'reaching' with the whole 'the kid' text. I just happened to pick those 2 words to refer to the child in this case, THATS ALL. I do think it's a touchy subject for you based on what...

I think someone's reading into my usage of "the kid" to mean the boy. I'm not trying to sound distant or be disrespectful, goodness.

I posted this question because I care and I am trying to be...

Thanks for the responses. A little more information:

We had been dating for 5 years before they moved in. Prior to her moving in, she was staying with her parents. So, it's not like I spent...

I think there should be a new forum called "stepparenting".

Well, I figured I would be on the losing end of a lot of battles, but from my point of view, it seems like I get zero say. How am I...

My girlfriend and her 12 year old boy just moved in with me about 10 months ago. I have been in the picture for the last 6 years. My girlfriend is 30 and I'm 31.

I feel that my girlfriend...

You also have to be very consistent. If you want, pick a day that you can have a meal where you can eat anything you want, but keep it to one meal and work out on that day. Everybody needs an 'out'...

Hi,

I am very into fitness, but I have really just run up against a wall.

I used to weigh 342lbs about 5 years ago. Over the next 3 years I lost 112lbs and got all the way down to 230. I'm...

I think for a female at 140lbs and 5'5 1000 calories is a tad low but it's not a SEVERE restriction. How about 1200? That's a bit more reasonable.

Are you seeing results on the 1000 calories? ...

Speedball,

With reference to your diagram in red:

The connection to the tub would not be able to be made with a dapout box in concrete that would allow you free access to the P-trap and...

I have access to a Sawsal with the right blade, but was also thinking to get a ratchet cutter, since that may be easier to control.

I also have a pneumatic cutoff tool that I would much rather...

That rubber sleeve, are those available at home depot?

Where can I get riser clamps? I was planning to start at the top and work downward, cutting maybe 12" sections at a time and handling it as...

I will be installing a full bathroom in the basement, and cutting up concrete to install plumbing.

Currently, I have a soil stack directly in the way of where the door to the bathroom will be...

You guys are great. Thanks.

Speedball, THAT is the pic I needed to see. Thank you all very much.

PS. I wanted to TIP all of you who helped but I do not see the "agree/disagree" when I click on your profile.

I'm looking for the proper spacing between a vanity, a toilet, and a tub all in that same order, on the left long wall of a 5 x 8 bathroom. Bathroom like the attached, but everything on the left...

I think I'm getting it now. I was thinking the 12x12 dapout was only going to allow me to access where the bath drain shoe attaches to the tub. I was apparently wrong. So, I will need to make sure...

I will be putting a bathroom in the basement of my ranch home. Thinking ahead, I know I will need a bathroom vent, especially since I will have a tub/shower in there.

1. Where in the bathroom...

I'm getting there, I'm getting there.

Chayn, the picture above from Speedball showing the tub in the concrete, the overflow tube looks concreted in. I don't see a dapout box.

I guess, where...

It's coming, but I'm still not sure yet! Haha

Ok, I will definitely not cement the dapout. Yay, I get that!

I also understand the basic drawing with red.

In the actual picture with the...
