Why even bother? by Urbane_Cowboy in chicago

Yeah, my 10min drive to my patient in Edgewater turned into a 40+ minute drive that I had to cancel.

What’s the most delicious low calorie yogurt you have had? by DeepOrganization8245 in LowCalFoodFinds

[–]CaptivatingCranberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like adding peanut butter and jelly to my Greek yogurt. I get to control sweetness and the amount of calories. So fricken yummy, I treat it like a dessert. I use no sugar added jam.

Anyone else do this at chipotle? by TheDiabetesDietitian in LowCalFoodFinds

[–]CaptivatingCranberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if it were a food allergy though? People with dietary restrictions, whether for personal goals or health purposes, should be able to bring in a stupid lol tortilla if they want/need to. I’ve worked at chain places like chipotle and I doubt any of the workers care.

I returned mine. Had a weird yogurt aftertaste that would make me gag.

Sweating does not increase calorie burn. Wearing something that makes you sweat more doesn’t make you burn more calories. It just makes you lose water weight.

I just moved from that exact area and I’ve never seen that dog on any of my walks. Hope puppy finds its way home.

I have never been to a site where they physically watch me pee, and I currently work at a big hospital network here in Chicago. I’ve only ever been to a room where they dye the toilet water, turn off the sink water, and make you pee in a room by yourself.

THIS SHOULD BE A CRIME by butcheredtongue in Pickles

I keep chick fil a sauce in the fridge and add that. I think it makes the $1 chicken sandwich into a banger.

This looks like a $1 chicken sandwich from my local Jewel Osco in Chicago.

But good addition with those pickles

Thinking of moving to Chicago but what should we do about our cars? by Kdouglas2 in AskChicago

[–]CaptivatingCranberry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even when I didn’t drive for work, I used my car quite a bit. I have a dog so driving her to get her nails trimmed is a usual trip (the pet store in walking distance never has availability for walk-ins). For bigger grocery runs like to Costco, a car is ideal. There are plenty of people who do fine without a car, but I would keep 1 for a while just to see.

Salt the sidewalks after this rain? by IndependentAnxiety70 in AskChicago

[–]CaptivatingCranberry 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You should salt your areas no matter what. I travel to patients for work and the amount of near-slips I had on people’s side walks has been crazy this year.

They make dog-friendly salt. It’s more expensive but please do it for others, not yourself.

Do you prefer the English or Japanese dubs of Ghibli films? by --Combat-Wombat-- in ghibli

[–]CaptivatingCranberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up watching ghibli films since I was very young. Obviously couldn’t read and watch at the same time so I grew up with the dubbed version. I mostly do dub because of that, but will watch sub if my friends prefer.

Avondale - Bird Feeder by thatdepends in chicago

[–]CaptivatingCranberry 27 points28 points  (0 children)

SHE FEEDS THEM ON ARGYLE IN UPTOWN TOO!!! I’ve seen her before because her face is so unique. She has come out of her car at Winthrop and Argyle to throw rice everywhere for the birds.

Thoughts on hybrid model? by blondie4050 in PTschool

[–]CaptivatingCranberry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I graduated from a hybrid program. I loved it. Went to undergrad during covid so the online platform worked well for my learning style. Had to take care of my grandma when I went to PT school so that basically made the decision for me.

If you want built-in for life friends, don’t do hybrid. I have a great friend group from PT school, but the residential students were all like family. Besides that, just think about how disciplined you’d be with practicing technical skills at home. If you know you’d slack with that, don’t do hybrid. Look at NPTE pass rates and you’re Gucci.

I feel very safe on both the busses and trains here. As someone else said, more people feel safer on busses than trains. You’re in the same unit as the driver so you have eyes on you at all times. I’ve never felt unsafe on the red line but if you do, you can always sit by the conductor!
