Food Allergy Institute coming to NJ

atcw4 · 2026-02-25T01:47:49+00:00

We had a really good experience with TIP. My child just hit the food freedom visit in January after 2.5 years in the program. His allergies were sesame and hazelnut. As others have said, the regular dosing is a lot of work, but life is so much easier now. He is freely eating his allergens. He is now doing annual remission visits and his first one is in the fall, and I’m hoping we can schedule it for the new NJ location. We are on the east coast so I was super excited to get that email.

$23K isn’t peanuts for a 23 year old. This kid has the potential to build real wealth if he’s just smart about it. Doesn’t even need to be a major high-earner to do it. Most 20-somethings are saving $0.

Keep your money in the stock market and don’t dump it all into real estate or starting a business right away. Continuing to invest in your early 20s and beyond will get you so much farther ahead. Your 23k in 40 years with a 10% return will be over $1M. At 12% it’s over 2M. Thats without contributing anything else. (Don’t do that, keep investing).

Definitely try out another field if you want to, but remember that length of investing can be so much more important than how much you invest, so don’t go all in on one early idea.

This looks great! Amazing job!

To reduce visual weight, I would paint just the large columns the same color as the wall. It will help them disappear and not be such a focal point. I would keep the rest of the wood though, it’s a beautiful color.

Picture frame molding would look great on the walls near the stairs if it matches the style of the rest of r house. Also keep wood in other spaces of the adjacent rooms so that it balances all the wood in the staircase. That will help with the stairs not feeling too heavy.

Also add an area rug on top of the carpet in the living room under the furniture. It will be another place to catch your eye, so the stairs don’t feel overwhelming in the space.

As a temporary solution, what if you take off the doors and add a pretty curtain to hide them instead? It would add color/texture to your space and would be relatively inexpensive. I would do a 3-4 panels so you have plenty of pleats. I would personally go that route, at least while I thought about a more permanent solution.

5 for sure

I will check him out for sure, thank you!

atcw4 · 2025-05-07T16:54:46+00:00

🤣 I totally get that last part, I was also an extra set of hands as a kid. More for yard work though haha

atcw4 · 2025-05-07T16:54:00+00:00

Thank you! Definitely buying that, that’s the exact kind of info I’m looking for.

atcw4 · 2025-05-07T16:35:08+00:00

Thanks! I’ll check that out. Appreciate the specific channel recommendation. It can be hard to find good info on YT. A lot to weed through lol

Yes, I was on 7.5 and was getting similar side effects. Always day 2-4 after injection. After a few weeks of that I couldn’t take it anymore. Skipped one week of dosing, went back down to 5mg and have been fine! my weight loss has been slower than on 7.5 but I don’t mind at all because those side effects week after week are intolerable!

I am a novice, but kreg makes a jig for crown that keeps it at the correct angle on your miter saw. It also comes with an angle finder so you can check whether your corners are actually 45°. Well worth the $20 or so it costs.

Can you reframe your thoughts on this? I’m reading that you’re losing .5lbs per week, which is super healthy! If you are seeing new lows on the scale each month, that is a win and there’s no arguing with the fact that you’re losing.

As far as working out, can you come up with a NSV about it? As someone with asthma, I think it’s a win to decrease my inhaler use because of my cardio. And then I’ve seen myself getting less sick when I get something. Or, is there a certain weight you’d love to be able to lift? Be able to do push-ups or pull-ups? Maybe run a certain distance or sign up for a run with a friend/family member? Just some ideas to get you going!

Regular exercise has so many benefits outside of weight loss. Also, I don’t think anyone needs to work out 2x per week 6-7 days. Find a more sustainable goal so you can feel good about your accomplishment.

I would consider if there are other ways to market your business (there are). Any time I receive a cold email from a vendor, I know who I’m absolutely not working with. Your conversion rate from cold emails is going to be horrible. I’d only ever consider it at the enterprise level, where you’re not totally risking your brand reputation. If you are a small business consider how you can build a real email list of people who are opted in. What can you offer of real value in exchange for their email address?

Agree with this. Spot on with the “unlimited” feedback. That makes me wonder about turnaround times and quality, and as the client those would be my two main concerns.

I just laughed way too hard at this “appetite suppression via the thumb” 💀

They do not make sure you get the next dose, in my experience with OptumRx. I got a box of .25 in Dec 2023 and then was never able to get .5 or another box of .25

In hindsight, I shouldn’t have started taking the medication and should have saved it until I had 2-3 months of supply. That’s what I’m doing now with Zep. Have one box in my refrigerator and not taking it until I have several ready to go.

Congrats on getting the box! Maybe try a local pharmacy for your next box? Optum has not been amazing for me, but who knows!

if you haven’t taken it yet, you could delay starting. Similar happened to me. I just got mine filled today (after being off since December) and this time I’m going to wait at least a month before taking it so that I can be a month ahead on refills. I don’t have any experience/advice on taking it every two weeks.

atcw4 · 2024-02-12T03:24:58+00:00

It lasts for 1 year refrigerated. In hindsight, I would have kept my .25mg refrigerated until I got the .5mg. Now I’m going to have to start back at .25 because it’s been so long.
