The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

What are the best quality-on-a-budget sunglasses you've used? I'm planning to buy a bunch of pairs with summer coming up, so I can keep them in cars and golf bags and to the beach and whatnot and not worry about losing them. I want something slightly better than absolute drug store junk, but I'm not willing to pay brand name prices. I'm considering Goodr, which I've heard good things about, or buying fake Oakley frogskins or Ray Ban Wayfarers off DHGate, some people I know claim they're totally impossible to distinguish from the authentics but it's hard to know which seller to buy from and that makes me nervous (though my one experience buying fake sports jerseys off DHgate was fantastic).
I bought a pair of Izipizi sunglasses for ~€50 a few months back. I now like them more than my secondhand Ray-Bans, which would have been €250 new.
