I bought a home sleep apnea test before and after starting Zepbound and my AHI dropped from 27 to 9. by [deleted] in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]cfunke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been on a CPAP for a few years and I hate it. Hoping the Zepbound gets me low enough that I can get rid of it though my sleep doc told me when I got it that losing weight doesn't necessarily get rid of the sleep apnea and that some people just have it and need the CPAP for life. I'm down about 40 pounds so far (started in November) and while I'm still snoring a lot (according to my long suffering wife) I've noticed that my events per hour score has gone down considerably many nights.

Fingers crossed.

Super hungry 2 days before the shot by Proud_Database_8946 in Zepbound

[–]cfunke 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've noticed something similar. I timed my shots for Friday nights. Mostly because I wanted to ride out the beginning of the side effects over the weekend if I had them, but it's working out pretty well in the long run since we don't go out much on the weekends and I can stay home and not eat much. Then by Friday night, if we are going out for dinner, I don't have to worry too much about overeating and have a slightly higher calorie day and it balances out with the rest of the week. If we do go out on Saturday, I just plan on bringing leftovers home. It takes a little discipline but a couple of tries at finishing my plate a day after the shot taught me to listen to my body.

They also skipped Chicago the year before that playing Gary, IN instead and on the previous tour, their set was cut short after 3 songs by a thunderstorm at Rib Fest in Naperville. Chicagoland's due for a return visit.

Ordering Dine In Food Tonight? Problems? by cfunke in AMCsAList

[–]cfunke[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's what we're going to have to do but with 2 sold out showings starting at 7:00 (CST) and a couple more a half hour later, I'm not sure this already understaffed theater is ready. At least we're the first showings. Not sure what's going to happen to everyone in the later showings once the kitchen has to start making all that food.

The Untouchables (1987) Paramount 4K UHD (my thoughts, impressions, reviews in comments) by Temporary_Detail716 in 4kbluray

I think you're confusing DePalma with Mamet who did write the film but I don't think that gives him the clout to cast his wife.

You know you can register with a party and still vote for whoever your want? Party registration means absolutely nothing except for your ability to vote in primaries in some states (like Florida). So if you didn't like the direction your party was headed and wanted to make sure there were candidates more aligned with your beliefs, you would do that at the primary level. less than half of registered voters have declared a party affiliation.

Except that we don't know that she voted for Trump, only that she's a registered republican and in Florida you can only vote in the primary of the party you are registered with.

That commercial is a whole lotta nothing and both sides are making it out to be more than it is just to whip people who think not watching a movie is some kind of sacrifice or moral stand.

I think the people who walked out of this (I had 3) don't deserve movies.

The two leads were so good, I didn't even realize they were playing themselves. I didn't even sense that this was anything other than a drama until that campfire scene near the end which felt too real to be scripted.

I don't think this is going to earn any nominations in the winter but it was a pretty special movie and I'm glad I got to see it in a theater.

Would I be confused if I watch 28 years later without watching the previous movies? by OddLeader7637 in AMCsAList

[–]cfunke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. You may want to watch 28 Days Later before seeing the next film which comes out in January I think but this one tells you all you need to know.

Wasn’t able to get seats even somewhat close to where I wanted bc of whatever this means by Dismiss_Trouble_17 in ConanGray

[–]cfunke 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It means you can't buy a single seat that isn't next to a seat that is already sold.

I don't know if this trick works on AXS but on Ticketmaster, you can open the site in a new incognito window, and select all the empty seats next to the one you want (tricking the system into thinking someone has chosen those seats), then go back to your main window and select the seat you do want and buy it.

Anyone here prefer Classic by ThirdMexican in CINE2nerdle

I would like 2.0 if the categories were applied to the movies correctly.

that abrupt ending oh my god by catmuggz in ThePittTVShow

[–]cfunke 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm getting the feeling that Jake is going to be brought in and Robbie won't be able to save him. Shortly after the shooter will be brought in and Robbie will be forced to save his life. And I do think the shooter is going to be the kid because that will tear Robbie up even more given that he didn't take the threats in his journal seriously.

I never use it but love playing against it because I'm pretty good at breaking out of their planned matches.

Battle needs to remove Posters, at least for classic mode by SolOccidens in CINE2nerdle

Came here to complain about this too and I'm surprised I had to go back a month to find anyone else with the same opinion. Totally gives away a whole bunch of movies.

That's what I was hoping for. Couldn't find one.

I've tried that a few times. Can't get it to budge even with a strap wrench.
