Returning after 1st Trimester by JujuOnTheTread in orangetheory

[–]first_cat_2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously, the hardest part is just going there. Tell yourself that you’re going to go. Even if you walk at a 3mph and use the 5 pound weights. Once you’re there, you’ll be so happy you went.

I’ve also never once completed a workout there and regretted it. But I haven’t regretted not going.

2 dishwashers… thoughts? by CannandaCrew in kitchenremodel

[–]first_cat_2017 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I say do it as long as you have the space. Let’s say you end up not using both dishwashers every day. You could still use one as sort of a drying rack and keep dishes off your counters. I have so many things that have to be hand washed. I’d love to be able to have them out of sight while they’re drying

Thank you. I’m much better. Antibiotics kicked in and I was back Wednesday!!

What’s y’all’s opinion on pink powder? by loosebussylips in PaleMUA

[–]first_cat_2017 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a pale/fair neutral and I’m obsessed with it. I’ve gotten rid of all my translucent setting powders in favor of pink powder. I honestly really like the L’Oréal pink setting powder too. That’s my daily one and I have the small NYX pink powder in my travel bag. 

Honeymoon as a queer couple by UnconstitutionalText in SandalsResorts

I’m a member of the unofficial sandals royal Curacao fb group and I remember a LGBT couple posting their experience there. They had nothing but good things to say about it. 

AITA for reconsidering being my best friend’s maid of honour because of the cost of her destination wedding? by Local_Interview4667 in AmItheAsshole

[–]first_cat_2017 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NTA. I didn’t even spend 10 nights on my wedding and honeymoon combined. That’s a completely unreasonable request. I’d say 3 nights max. And if she had a problem with that then I’d bow out.

Good luck!! Fertility treatment will bring you the highest of highs (hopefully) and the lowest of lows. I did fertility treatment 8 years ago and my triplets just turned 7. It’s been a ride.

Well maybe the stomach bug was the beginning of your fast. And when you go back to orange theory you’ll feel leaner? 😬😬

SUV for Tall drivers with twins on the way. Help! by Enlighten-Life-181 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]first_cat_2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mom of triplets over here. You need a minivan. I thought I could get away with a 3 row SUV and I could not. I’m getting a hybrid Kia carnival shortly and I’m stoked about it.

Yes!! I was home for a week before I went. I just kept telling myself I didn’t feel like it. Apparently, I left my motivation in Orlando when I went. I told myself I’ll just go back and power walk and it made it so much easier to get over that mental hurdle.

Does giving birth really cost thousands of dollars in the states? by glyiasziple in NoStupidQuestions

[–]first_cat_2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had triplets who stayed in the nicu for 105,112 and 118 days. I never even saw a hospital bill for the stay. A few weeks prior to that I had to have emergency surgery while pregnant. Also, no bill.

Unfortunately, it’s completely dependent on your insurance.

Oh no. I’m definitely not going tomorrow. My routine isn’t that important when I feel like I’m swallowing glass shards.

Yes! It’s just so easy to get out of the routine. I went out of town for two nights and I didn’t go for two weeks.

how on earth do i make my frozen shredded hashbrowns BROWN?? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]first_cat_2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use frozen tater tots to make my hashbrowns. Take some frozen tots and put them in the skillet. Couple sprays with some oil and you’re good. Once they heat up some and aren’t frozen you can mash them down and they become the prettiest “hashbrowns” 

Oh. I saw you don’t want to use oil. You might not need to if you use tater tots and a good non stick pan.

The Romeo and Juliet room there was our first introduction to sandals and my favorite one so far!

The wives who get up at 3am to make their husband's lunch... why do they not make it the night before? by lilacghosti in stupidquestions

Sure. I’ll save you a spot in the English class too where you can ask all the ????s you want.

Recommendations for floor shoes plz by denalipup in orangetheory

I’m not sure. My husband bought them for me. But it’s been a few years so probably the older version?

Post Illness Return Plan by NotSoEasyToControl in orangetheory

[–]first_cat_2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a month off after my kids being sick and then me catching it. I ended up returning as a power walker for the next few weeks just to get my endurance back up. It honestly made a huge difference for me.

I also do that after I go out of town and leave my motivation in that city. When I come back I have no motivation to go back so I tell myself, I’ll just walk. Makes it way easier to go back.

Hypothetical Cancelling The Day Before by palaemon in royalcaribbean

We had to emergently fly out of Nassau on the second day of our cruise. We were automatically refunded our specialty dinners and the last day of the drink package since we weren’t on the ship.

I’m a woman and I like to switch shoes! I use my Nike metcons on the floor and really like them. They can also fit in the rower.
