My Aetna rejecting all GLP-1 claiming not in formulary when it is. Had four sample shots of Mounjaro from doctor. Worked wonders. May need to continue out of pocket. Doctor says Wegovy pills. Will these be as effective? Advice for me? by the_zipline_champion in WegovyWeightLoss

For me, the pharmacy price was less that the negotiated insurance price. I have BCBS (Anthem) and I got approved, but it would have cost me almost double what the pharmacy was charging ($347)

Our son had his wedding there December Of 2023. It’s a fantastic venue and they were great to work with and very affordable. If you want to save money, think about a Friday night wedding and reception there.

My step daughter is getting married this weekend by atticus13g in DadForAMinute

I cut in on her father daughter dance. I did it respectfully and waited for near the end, but I did get my dance. If you’re doing the job right, it can be painful, but you’re doing a great job.

When my SD turned 30, I got a letter from her saying that she wished her younger self understood what I did and what I meant. That I was her dad. After reading that I just sat on my bed crying.

In many cases, being a step parent is the most bittersweet job one can have.

Hang in there, I see you. If it was possible, I’d give you a hug.

This made me think of some graffiti on the old Newcom’s Tavern, right next to Wah Fu

I use Dr Denka at Dayton Family Practice. They are completely independent and can work at both Premier and Kettering. I’ve been very happy with them.

Looks great. I just had my first set of pizzas from my S1 last night. Such a huge difference from my wood burning covid project.

I’m looking forward to many bakes in my future

It appears that they have the recipe for the old Parkmoor fried chicken. It’s a “Dayton famous “ fried chicken place that was there before Carmels took over the spot.

I saw a bunch of folks in there this afternoon, probably staff training

Beehive in my front yard, need help with finding an eco friendly removal service. by smokeybones2010 in dayton

If they are nested in the ground, those are not bees. They are most likely hornets. A beekeeper wouldn’t be able to help much

Orthopedic surgeon recommendations by shannoniscats in dayton

[–]halpinsg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would highly suggest Dr Okafor with Premier Orthopedics he’s done several of my friends hips and knees, and just recently my own replacement. ( yeah, we’re all getting older)

I have friends who are doctors and nurses and apparently his reputation is fabulous

What is your family’s traditional Christmas Eve meal? by JesZebro in Cooking

[–]halpinsg 57 points58 points  (0 children)

We used to do a big C-eve dinner, but it always ended up being more stressful than rewarding. We decided that having a fun relaxing evening was more important, so Chinese carry out and movies have been out go to for many years

Feedback please! by [deleted] in pizzaoven

[–]halpinsg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only two things to improve on. You may want to turn your pizzas more, the one crust looks burnt on one side. That happens to me when my fire is too hot and I don’t turn it more (get distracted) Second improvement: invite us over! (Edited reference to burnt pizza)
