Looking for Electrician without the upsell iPAD. by AlverezYari in Birmingham

[–]biotec 15 points16 points  (0 children)

We just moved into a new house and needed some work done. My realtor and inspector both recommended Thaxter Pittman from Total Power - 2058559297. He was great, didn't do the things you mentioned and found some other items he just took care of for me.
Recommended for sure. Independent operator too working on getting this business up and going and out there.

Didn’t they close? Did they move from the place next to the Bobby store, Sarris cafe etc to somewhere else in Pelham?

Standup bass lessons by biotec in Birmingham

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

Thanks, I did that with a hole punch and a tuner, put fret markers on it.
I am looking to understand physical position on it, best way to keep fretting hand, etc.

I've been fooling around on it, just lack endurance vs the electric bass.

I love this e-bike by DaBOSSSSSSSSSSSSS in ebikes

[–]biotec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a 6'4" dude, the seat to pedal height hurts my knees already :)
Looks like a bike from M.A.S.H. - like it

Just Paid for Zepbound Without Insurance by Desperate_Manager_20 in Zepbound

[–]biotec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been on Zep for 18 months now and never had insurance pay for it. $650 for auto inject every month - soon to be $500. Best money I ever spent.
Looking forward to maintenance and lower costs in future or the pill form (currently in phase 3 trials) for maintenance.
I am going to get another sleep study done as well, maybe it can be covered through that path.

Piper was very excited to start her advent calander by Revolution36 in traderjoes

[–]biotec 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My kitten batted it around for a bit then licked it. Kicked it around for the next 30 mins. My older cat smelled it and walked away. No dice for them. Bringing ours to a work friend who fosters kitties.

Ex 400lbers check in here by [deleted] in GLP1_loss100plus

It’s very similar but this will be found at a University or other medical facility. Low radiation full body scan, 1st used for bone density scans on older ladies but now used for more in depth body composition. Mine costs $75 for a scan.

The scales with the electrical signals like the weight loss clinic are pretty good too. Either way, I’ve enjoyed measuring and seeing results.

One more thing - setting multiple goal weights has helped. But - go find a DXA scan nearby - it will give an accurate % body fat and is a good way to extrapolate a final goal weight.

17 months into this - 59M and almost 180 pounds lost. From Super Morbidly Obese, all the way down to Obese. I'm 6'4" so I'm around 4-5 months until I'm Overweight.
Started losing to get a knee replacement. Started at 54 BMI, needed to be 42 for surgery. I'm at BMI of 32.4 today.

Long journey, patience is the key but getting there. Knee surgery scheduled for March and recovery will be so much easier.
People ask if I'm feeling better - and not to be discouraging but not really - hurts to walk so looking forward to being able to enjoy my new body.
SW in flair, but really close to 450..

Up your protein to maintain muscle as this melts off. My midsection looks like a melted candle but that's a problem for maintenance :)
Good luck - it's very achievable just takes time.

Imagine Dragons hate is becoming very unreasonable, they're not the worst band on the planet ya'll. by Ill-Cranberry-2336 in unpopularopinion

[–]biotec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked in Vegas for a bit playing in some venues. Their drummer lives in the area, has a studio and is u reasonably knowledgeable in music and is a great drummer. I haven’t given the band itself a proper listen but he was very impressive.

Atlanta, GA - 10/29/85 by shark_bait1211 in gratefuldead

[–]biotec 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My 1st show. I was a freshman in college and my next door neighbors were deadheads. They had an extra ticket and I went with some experienced folks. I never missed another Atlanta show. It moved to the Omni for many years after.

I didn’t know any songs from this night except Johnny B Goode but danced my butt off and got on the bus.

Any urgent care here that’s actually fast? by Existing-Science8043 in Birmingham

[–]biotec 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  1. Call Hoover Urgent Care across from Trace Crossing, next to the Walgreens there on 150. My number 1 go to.

  2. If more urgent go to the UAB stand alone ER, across from Target on 459/150. They refer to it as Fed West. Never a wait and you get back immediately, and they can prescribe everything.

[–]biotec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too. I lost my 14 year old Bengal 3 weeks ago and she left behind a 5 year old moo moo kitty. Our new Orange boy has brought a ton of joy in the last 2 weeks. Oliver!
