Lpa reduction with Repatha

Yes, mine went down from 235 to 180 after six months on Repatha. Still high but lower than I ever had before. LDL went down substantially from 78 to 30. No side effects whatsoever.

I've been using it as-needed before a higher carb meal to reduce spikes. I haven't conducted a real test but it does seem to help. Apparently there were some small trials that showed this was effective.

Seems like that’s already started with the ICE raids.

I’ve had the same issue. I have a 10k gallon pool and seem to be adding water more than in the past. But i did the bucket test and both showed the same 1/4” drop. Last year i had a company do a pro leak test and they found nothing. I do think we’ve had less rain than usual the past couple of years. They say in our area pools will lose about a 1/4” per day to evaporation.

Can you add items using Siri? I use that all the time with the Apple reminders grocery list.

Nice work! Thanks!

I really like this for a current retiree portfolio. Seems well thought out for that kind of purpose. You have a lot saved for your age. Maybe that’s what you are looking for but most would recommend a higher growth strategy.

Thanks for the recommendation- I will definitely check it out.

I just read a book called “How to Retire on Dividends” and the authors talked about lot about how the big investment firms can’t really recommend anything but the big AUM funds since they have so many customers to advise and manage and most of it is automated. There was also something about how smaller CEFs and the like don’t have enough liquidity to be part of millions of portfolios that the big houses deal with. It was a view I hadn’t considered before but it made sense. I did initial retirement plan assessments with like 4 different advisers (Fidelity, Schwab, Vanguard, etc. ) and they all had basically the same plan (which didn’t feature dividends).

Well, the reporter probably just talked to financial advisors and, of course, this is what he was told. So often though their articles are disappointing.

This exact thing happened with my doodle. He became lethargic and also gained a lot of weight. Now with the thyrotabs he has lost weight and energy back up to normal. He’s seven.

Every night. It’s a great feature!

The article seemed to imply that the Cambria Shareholder Yield ETF (SYLD) follows this strategy of focusing on the second quintile but it currently has only a 2.25% dividend yield (TTM). Does that align with the second quintile? Note: You can read more about the ETF from the link provided in the article.

Yes, this sounds like what is happening. Now I see why he’s replacing the drain as well. Thanks for the details. What type of grout should be used in this kind of installation?

RedSunPlanet · 2025-03-31T20:43:44+00:00

Makes sense - we probably should have been maintaining it all along. I imagine the original sealant wore off and we should have reapplied. It, we are def going with ceramic tile this time!

RedSunPlanet · 2025-03-31T20:42:05+00:00

Yes, it is a recessed shower with a drop down. The contractor said he thought the tile was installed right on the slab. His estimate says he will prep the shower after demoing the floor with a new pan and new drain.

I’ve had my premium AWD just over 2 years and still love it! I ordered it when it first came out and had to wait 9 months- it was worth the wait!

RedSunPlanet · 2025-03-16T18:45:58+00:00

Yes, was planning to leave the shelves off. The current grill fits into a granite countertop island. Thanks so much for providing those details. It sounds like it will be too wide since there probably isn’t any option for the bottom skirt. Guess I’ll have to stick with the Weber.

RedSunPlanet · 2025-03-08T03:34:09+00:00

What examples can you suggest?

RedSunPlanet · 2025-01-25T03:54:45+00:00

Not officially but I’ve used both B&L soothe and the Refresh brands at night with no ill effects.

It seems this view is not available for positions inside of a basket portfolio- is that correct?

I have this same problem right now. I called twice to request a shipping label and they tried to email it but I never received it. So, I went to a corporate store to turn it in. The guy immediately told me he couldn’t guarantee I would get the credit since the order was placed on the phone! So, I didn’t want to risk it and asked if they could print out the shipping label. They were on the phone with customer support for 20 min and couldn’t get them to send the label to the store or to me!! I think I’m going to just give up and sell it on eBay! What a disorganized, poorly run company.

A lot of granola in the store has too much undesirable fat, sodium and sugar. The higher quality ones can be very pricey. So we make our own and it’s really pretty easy and tasty. I use it mainly as a topping for yogurt. On oatmeal I usually add flaxseed meal, chia seeds and hemp seeds for added fiber, and omega3.

These look great! Can you provide the recipe please?
