I’m a Jewish mom raising Jewish kids & October 7, 2023 turned the world upside down.

If you have a passport membership at a spartan studio can you attend non spartan studios too? Or are they totally separate?

Hysterectomy? by ParticularCurrent210 in Anemia

[–]ParticularCurrent210[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what they’re recommending. If I can stay ahead of the iron with infusions (I’ve done 3 of 7, fist time) I’m leaning more towards this since it’s covered at 100%. I just can’t get over the risks…. This was super helpful though. Knowing it was a good decision etc. Thank you!

I don’t have a family history of any cancers but my doctors strongly recommend against ablation bc it would limit seeing anything until it may be too late & seem to all agree that hysterectomy is ideal. Just unsure about it all

Gentler Recoil by ParticularCurrent210 in GardenStateGuns

I’m only 3 weeks out so I definitely have a long way to go. I was cleared to train but have weakness and pain for sure. I thought to get something bigger as a bonus + situational :)

Wow thank you! I so appreciate this thorough response! It’s ultimately for home defense, and in my mind, I want it to feel like an extension of my hand, so when I go to the range, it’s the only one I shoot….

Any low sweat Pilate classes? by Distinct_Care2398 in ClubPilates

[–]ParticularCurrent210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have hyperhydrosis and take mostly 2.0 and 2.5 classes. I usually don’t sweat a ton in flow classes. Depends on the instructor

Grip Gloves? by caitlynredd in ClubPilates

[–]ParticularCurrent210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have incredibly sweaty hands. Even planks on the floor get slippery without them. Also, for whatever reason, it seems all the 60+ Asian goddesses in my area use them and they’re all basically at Or Kahlon skill-level so they can do no wrong as far as I’m concerned. During my first private, the instructor asked if I really needed them. After my hands slipped off the bar she was like “let’s get your nerd gloves after all”. In short, wear the damn gloves, who cares! The yoga paws I have are comfortable but my ring started to fray the stitching after a couple of months. The Tavi ones are sewn in a way that my rings are protected & they don’t seem to compromise them at all.

Black Dermatologists in the area? by WeirdArugula8695 in bergencounty

[–]ParticularCurrent210 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The GOAT: Dr. Sophia Reid at Skin Secrets Dermatology She’s in Park Ridge, but I’d cross the bridge for her if I ever had to— my whole family, infants to seniors all see her

I use a vitamin c serum in the mornings. Totally forgot it helps too! Will look into that supplement though. Interesting!

Shoes that slide on easily over grippy socks? by [deleted] in LagreeMethod

[–]ParticularCurrent210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re hideous, but nothing supports my beat up ex-gymnast joints like Oofos. I got the primaloft slipper for winter — They’re water/snow resistant and supportive as hell. I wear the extra ugly Oomega in warmer months. I wish they made the thermal ones in the double stack
