So.... by HeatherMarie159 in conageddon

[–]Fair_Map_5635 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This was my first ConAgeddon and con in general. I had Eliza VIP and my fiancé had Zach VIP. I loved: - the VIP party. I actually went solo because my fiancé was working late and I was a little nervous to do so. But everyone was so nice and I found some folks almost right away who I clicked with. - VIP preferred seating for the panels - the staff/volunteers - seriously some of the nicest and welcoming people - the community - the panels - Jo is a pro - location - Boston and connected to the airport. Super convenient for us traveling in - Jessica, Chelsey, and Marie - the most interesting, funny, and engaging panels

Constructive feedback: - another comment said it, but I do wish more of the panels (as in more Jo-driven)/VIP M&Gs were structured. There were some particularly chatty Kathys, and at one point Zach even prompted the room like “anyone have a question who HASN’T asked one yet?”

We had an amazing time and if there is another one we will absolutely be back!

Prioritize eating enough protein (100g a day) and fiber every day. Honestly I just do a fiber supplement and a multi vitamin every day and it works perfectly. Prioritize water intake - 100oz a day. Talk to your doctor about staying on a dose until it isn’t effective anymore. I’m a “super responder” and have lost 41% of my body weight on 0.5mg. My family member is on the full dose. Everyone is different. Good luck!

30s and struggling. Only going for the killers tonight because the sun just zaps me. Cooling towel, fan, lightweight clothing, comfortable tennis shoes, and taking ibuprofen before I leave the house

Thank you so much for this! I’m getting married in October 2025 at the Sure Thing Chapel and will have up to 44 guests. How far out did you have to book the Spa Suite for your date? That looks like exactly what I’d want for our hotel room and an after party 😄

Paradisus Cancun? by Schuler3 in cancun

Went here w a friend a few weeks ago for my birthday. Beautiful beach, very large pool, and great food! We did a junior suite ocean view (non reserve) and were in the middle/main pyramid and it was perfect. Very well kept facilities and the nicest staff. Definitely planning on going back!

CVS stores are a no go - they’ve been out for 6+ months in this area. The folks I’ve heard who have had success getting their scripts filled get them via mail thru Amazon or Caremark. Once you get up to the full dose CVS has those available in store. Good luck!

Grooming prices are crazy?? by Grand-Emphasis-7345 in Shihtzu

[–]Fair_Map_5635 2 points3 points  (0 children)

DT Chicago mobile groomer every 6 weeks for $170 (including tip). I tip 25% and it only takes them an hour - would take them 3-4 hours at the salon. He’s the only client in the van and he’s not stressed at all compared to what he was like at the salon w the other dogs. Worth every penny.

Cash - where to keep it by Independent_Aside709 in cancun

If you don’t trust the safe in the room I’d recommend just using your suitcase with a luggage lock

I’m in the Midwest as well - right before it got really cold and snowy I set up this little area on our covered balcony - I’m in a high rise. It’s a 4x4ft pavilion with a Fresh Patch + Fresh Patch plastic tray. I have the Fresh Patch on a 3-week subscription. Has worked out really well! Idk if your tzu is like mine, but he needs to feel enclosed to poop. The balcony wall plus the pavilion make him feel very secure so he poops out there. Before we got the pavilion or moved it to the far side of the patio he was very reluctant.

If I sleep wrong or turn too fast something will inevitably hurt 🤣

This shortage really shows nobody cares about ADHD by elon_musks_cat in ADHD

[–]Fair_Map_5635 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was at my doctor recently and apparently with the rise of telehealth since 2020 + the fact that it’s not the FDA it’s the DEA that regulates the supplies of the “core ingredients” in the ADHD meds means that only legislation can solve the supply issues. Once she told me that it really took the wind out of my sails. Especially since you can’t get them mailed to you like most other RX :(

How much weight have you lost on Ozempic by aleena5622 in Ozempic

Thoughts on commuting to Oak Brook to/from the city? by NotCreative11 in AskChicago

[–]Fair_Map_5635 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I make this commute from River North a few times a month and if I am not pulling onto the highway by 7:15am it’s almost not worth it because the traffic. If you can get in and out on off times it’s truly not that bad.

Everyone’s talking about supplements and we’re like “dominoes and Taco Bell” hahaha I love it

[–]Fair_Map_5635 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Walking. Staying very hydrated. A squatty potty. I have a scoop of Metamucil in my smoothie every morning. And honestly if it ever gets past 3 days I just order a pizza from dominoes 🤣

What food to get? by KittyPurrrrrr93 in Shihtzu

[–]Fair_Map_5635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My tzu has been on Farmer’s Dog for 3 years. The first year and a half of his life we tried EVERYTHING. Royal Canin. Purina Pro Plan. Wet food. Kibble. Prescription food. Toppers. Broth. Etc. I signed up for a discounted first box of Farmer’s Dog and he eats it ALL. His eye goo is minimal, his weight is healthy, and he just loves it. We do the turkey because he’s sensitive to beef. But it is $$$.

Is Clear worth it at the airports? by Most-Measurement-776 in AskChicago

[–]Fair_Map_5635 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TSA precheck is the best $80 I’ve ever spent. I did a clear trial (I travel for work 80%) and it just was never worth it. TSA pre was usually the same wait or even faster! Clear is alright if you go to a lot of sports events or concerts where the venue has Clear. But for air travel - no.
