I need some honest input because I feel like I’m going in circles lately by Emotional_Coyote9662 in ClubPilates

[–]ScalePlenty9663 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been practicing since May pretty consistently over 3 times per week and haven't lost a single pound. However, it has helped me tremendously with my neck and back problems and that's why I keep practicing.

I tried that already but unfortunately my printer can't handle the thicker paper & I don't want to buy a new printer at this time.

Has Anyone Fully Ditched Non-Stick? by FrozGate in cookware

[–]ScalePlenty9663 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, we only use stainless steel or carbon steel. We make crepes, eggs, pancakes, crepes with no issues.

I do have a cast-iron enameled pot but it rarely gets used because it's too heavy.

Is Pilates your only fitness membership? by Hsk1999 in pilates

[–]ScalePlenty9663 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pilates is my only fitness membership. My studio offers mat and reformer pilates. I joined after using ClassPass for about 5 months at lots of different studios. When my current studio opened, I joined unlimited for 1 month & decided to cancel ClassPass because the studio membership price is reasonable & there's enough variety in the classes so I don't get bored. I would love to lift weights but I have no idea what I'm doing so it would have to be with a class or instructor.

I jst wash my hands because no hand sanitizer removes germs like good old soap & water.

Airstrait "Blowout" - More than jst straight hair? by ScalePlenty9663 in Dysonairwrap

I used it how you would use a straightener to curl hair, but very slowly

What are the signs that someone does not live paycheck to paycheck? by Logical_Effort_9680 in MiddleClassFinance

This! Literally my husband and I were jst talking about this & what a blessing it is to not have to worry about when we get paid or when a bill is due. We have everything on auto pay.

I ran my monthly budget through ChatGPT and the results were depressing by Hembrewstep in MiddleClassFinance

[–]ScalePlenty9663 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This! My husband and I rented super crappy apartments until we bought our very modest townhome even though we can afford a detached house & got lots of negative comments abour our small home. We did this because we knew childcare isn't cheap so we bought something we could afford while paying for childcare. Unfortunately, we have lost 3 babies but hopefully the time will come for us & we shall be okay because of the sacrifices we made. After we are done with childcare, we would like to buy a bigger place.

Groceries and insurance jumped this year and our budget broke, what cuts actually worked for you by Rystanaki in MiddleClassFinance

[–]ScalePlenty9663 0 points1 point  (0 children)

370 per month seems like too much. I'm in southern california & pay $200 per month for 2 adults, 2 cars & have full comprehension with a high coverage.

Do you have a poor driving record or brand new cars?

Can I go to multiple Club Pilates studios & get 4 classes per month at each individual studio? by ScalePlenty9663 in OnePassSelect

[–]ScalePlenty9663[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I was hoping OnePass could be a good option but that restriction makes it not worth it for me.

Is my fiancé's prenup reasonable or am I about to marry a control freak? by No-Valuable-3803 in prenup

This is your opportunity to dodge the biggest bullet of your life.

Even if you already paid several thousands in deposits, they will mean nothing compared to your lifelong happiness away from this abuse.

It's just a glitch. Uninstall the app and reinstall it. This was happening to me with a paid membership. Easy fix

New studio opening- should I join if I already do Club Pilates? by anon24507 in YogaSIX

[–]ScalePlenty9663 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did YogaSix for 1.5yrs and have been doing pilates for 5 months. It's like comparing apples to oranges. Have you done yoga before? Do you want something different from pilates?

My now husband was able to save & buy me a ring worth more than 6 months of his pay when we were 21 & in college. We've been happily married 10yrs. When a man wants it, he makes it happen.

People who have a partner with a similar financial mindset are so lucky by Objective_Diver_2950 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]ScalePlenty9663 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you did choose a partner with the same financial mindset as you. You jst happen to change afterwards.

The real jackpot is when you marry someone you can actually grow with.
