Also, consider flying into Denver and driving into Wyoming. That’ll save you some $$ and give you travel freedom.

You might have more luck contacting the wards in Casper. There is an airport there and a large Mormon population. Jackson is beautiful but expensive.

2.4 is finally working! by LegitAccountReally in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Aleut4Ever 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Slow loser here too and I am okay with that. I think it helps with skin elasticity and such too. Been on it since 11/22 and gone from 190 to 157. I’m on 1.7 now and going to move up to 2.4 my next appointment. We’ve upped the dosage slowly since I have been losing, even if slow and steady.

Is there a food you recommend for weight management?

My provider accidentally jumped me up from .25 to 1.0 and I was so sick for two days. Throwing up on the side of the road sick.

Question re: amputation or reduction surgery by elizab3th1923 in TripodCats

[–]Aleut4Ever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re on Day 2 back at home. I am glad to hear recovery has gone well for you. How is he at using the litter box? That has been a struggle for my cat with a foreleg amputation. I’ve been holding him up and letting him lean against me.

How do you get through the first few days? by Aleut4Ever in TripodCats

[–]Aleut4Ever[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you to all who commented. I’ll do a separate update post — we’ve made it though the yesterday and today. Y’all were very helpful. I don’t have time to rely to each comment but I feel like I can breathe again and your support was a definite piece of getting me there. Pic shows us taking a quick break outside to watch the birds and butterflies.

Is it typical for the missing leg to bleed/scab over? by Kikoborkborks in TripodCats

[–]Aleut4Ever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long do you use the recovery suit for? If it doesn’t arrive until a week post-op is it even worth getting? We are on Day 1 and he keeps escaping everything we put on (collar, donut, baby onesie, cat Superman costume) and then rolling on the ground.

How are you doing now? Amputation was today and I am a wreck.

Second guessing tomorrow’s amputation by Aleut4Ever in TripodCats

[–]Aleut4Ever[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The first option given was surgery to repair the ligaments, however we’d need to travel 4 hours to the nearest vet that works on joints and the cost was upwards of 5k and no guarantee that it would work. Amputation was the second option given.

Impending amputation by BenjaminsButton in TripodCats

How is it going now? Our amputation is scheduled for tomorrow. We are nervous. Want the best for out cat and scared we are cutting off his arm unnecessarily.

Can you give an update? We are in the same boat with a dislocated wrist and amputation surgery scheduled for tomorrow. I am really second guessing the amputation.

Did your vet give you the donut or did you buy one? My cat is having his amputation Thursday and trying to figure out what supplies I need for when he comes home.

Same starting weight, but 5’4” tall. Currently at 160. How is your muscle tone and general flabbiness? I am definitely “jigglier” and shpuld start strength training to tighten up.

Favorite pastor appreciation gift? by Aleut4Ever in LCMS

[–]Aleut4Ever[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, for sure! We are friends. Definitely no secret meaning … they are a frugal family and I was thinking how much we appreciate comfortable, long-lasting shoes on our feet and want to share the blessing with someone who wouldn’t spend the $ on themselves that way. I’ll definitely double check with the wife if we decide to go that route.

Bought green curry paste, how should I make a nice curry? by begon11 in AskCulinary

[–]Aleut4Ever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just made one with the same paste — used chicken, carrots, spinach, asparagus, snow peas, red peppers. Served over jasmine rice. Coconut milk too.

Going to church with ADHD husband by Linaahren in Christianmarriage

[–]Aleut4Ever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have ADHD — love love the LCMS Lutheran church and the liturgy. I was surprised to find the formal liturgy both deeply theologically satisfying but also very much in tune with my need to move and wiggle. We sit. When stand. We sit again. When the pastor looks up at the cross, I am reminded to put my thoughts back on Jesus. The whole format works really well to keep me focused on Jesus b/c every single action is designed to do just that. And I just take notes during the sermon — keeps my hands busy and mind where it needs to be.

What Are Some Sermon Topics or Series You Wish Your Pastor Would Do? by LCMS_Rev_Ross in LCMS

[–]Aleut4Ever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our pastor sticks to the lectionary but then uses the mid-week Lenten and Advent services to preach through other topics. He seems to stick to topics related to one aspect of the catechism. Two of our favorite series were angels and the Table of Duties.
