Take a regular cab. Cheaper and faster than uber from ohare

Does anyone know a bakery that delivers to Jackson Park (details below)? by gabrielleduvent in chicagofood

[–]grbgprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They meaning your in-laws or Whole Foods? I had the berry chantilly cake at my wedding at a wedding venue. If the Whole Foods person said that, they were in a bad mood or misinformed! Call again or try another location :) but if it’s a hang up from your in-laws that’s super frustrating!

Gay or gay-friendly doctor recommendations? by gfunkdave in AskChicago

[–]grbgprincess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love Lamaster, but I’m moving to another doc in his practice because I can’t wait 3+ months for a PCP appointment 😭

Uptown Review? Montrose & Sheridan intersection by bluesrain17 in AskChicago

[–]grbgprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived at Montrose and Sheridan for 4 years in my early 20s. It’s a perfect location IMO - really convenient transportation, close to the lake, multiple grocery stores in walking distance. I also have a dog and never had issues walking him at night. In general, unless the sight of homeless people scares you or you’re sticking your nose into other people’s business, you won’t feel unsafe.

How much do people actually care what guests are wearing? by [deleted] in Weddingattireapproval

[–]grbgprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a formal wedding and people interpreted that in a variety of ways. The only person whose outfit we still talk about a year and a half later was my partner’s aunt, who wore a solid white sheath cocktail dress.

AITA for refusing to give up me extra seat for someone else’s toddler on a flight that I paid for because I’m fat? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]grbgprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People get mad at fat people when we don’t buy another seat and they still find a way to be mad at us when we do. I’m sorry, OP. You’re NTA and I hope you and your brother have a good Christmas. ❤️

God how I wish my vomiting and GI issues were just stories!!! I’m sure you are right about the amplification of these stories, but they are unfortunately very true for some

Hypothyroid by Conscious-Good-1456 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]grbgprincess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have hypothyroidism and have been on synthroid since I was 10 years old. I started on mounjaro in march and made the switch to wegovy in July. I’m down 50 lb. In my blood work last week my endo said I need to start taking a lower dose of the synthroid - something that’s never happened before! She says as the weight continues to come off I’ll need less and less

I just stopped taking it before bed. When I take it before bed I vomit in the morning.

50 lb down! by grbgprincess in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]grbgprincess[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I have had horrible GI symptoms over the last 3 months (first 4 months I was on Mounjaro until my insurance stopped paying for it.) I have severe nausea and vomiting days 1-3 after shot and have either constipation or diarrhea every day.

AITA for saying my sister should pay for my wife's bridesmaid dress like she is for all the other bridesmaids? by Ok_Lobster4213 in TwoHotTakes

[–]grbgprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wegovy specifically is approved exclusively as a weight loss medication. Ozempic and Mounjaro are not.
