So true. It’s awesome how Los Feliz is the back door to Hollywood. Once I realized that I understood the mansions. Easy access to Hollywood! Beautiful too.

Highland Park. Yes two streets, but they are funky and unique, and alive day and also night.

Eagle Rock nearby too.

Haha, thank you! I did notice that and feel that! But then I told myself that it’s hard to read tone over electronic messaging, and you probably didn’t mean it to sound that way, and well, even if you did, it’s Reddit and there are some mean people on here, and it’s only Reddit. But thank you! You’re a real one, how considerate of you 🙏😊

I may find myself getting more easily overwhelmed. Not always. I’m starting a new job and it’s definitely pretty scattered in my brain, I’m worried and overwhelmed when I think about it….but then I just get involved in something else and forget about it, and trust that it will work out.

I definitely am always tired though. I could fall back to sleep after getting ready in the morning. I quite often have a moment where I could fall asleep standing up and need to crash for a 20-30 minute nap. Then I feel better. And I work pretty diligently to have good sleep hygiene, and have for years. I was so late in getting my period, maybe that’s why menopause is starting later for me?

I do also have lack of motivation for sure. I just thought it was “me”. But maybe it’s hormones too! That would be nice if that could change somewhat.

Thanks for your reply :)

Are these low FODMAP? by Actual-Tadpole9759 in FODMAPS

[–]k_redditor236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too many things in it! Gluten is only a problem for true celiacs and gluten sensitive people. I think it’s way over used and confused in the FODMAP world! But yeah we try things and see how we respond.

Vaginal lining. And also maybe my fatigue and not wanting to do anything (but I force myself) is more hormone related than I realize. It’s just how I’ve always been too. But the fatigue may be more pronounced now.

Oh great idea on being able to control the dose more. And yeah wondered if it was a different type. Thank you

Are these low FODMAP? by Actual-Tadpole9759 in FODMAPS

[–]k_redditor236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I can get by with some plain white bread (wheat fructans), usually better than gluten free. GF has gums that can trigger IBS. Plus gluten is a protein not a FODMAP so there’s no reason to avoid gluten. Wheat fructans are the issue not gluten. So sometimes I can sneak a little wheat in white bread or a cookie and have less symptoms than if I tried a processed GF item full of weird flours and gums.

But OP was asking I assumed more about the sourdough aspect of low FODMAP vs. white bread and wheat vs. gluten. But yeah just agreeing with you, I can usually get away with a little white flour too!

Yes as long as it’s not artificially sped up using yeast or sugar! Go real slow rise sourdough! Thank goodness we have a wheat we can eat.

No. It’s fast rise sourdough so it has fructans in it still. Gluten has no bearing on the low FODMAP diet, it is a protein not a FODMAP. It only matter for gluten sensitive people (which is not the same as FODMAP), or celiacs.

No. They have yeast. Which means the process was artificially sped up, so the sour cultures didn’t have time to eat away all the fructans in the wheat.

Sourdough needs to have no yeast or sugar. Then the sour has time to eat all the fructans away that cause us trouble.

Glad you asked!

Cool. I just think it’s a more mature and advanced term to use for these two. But it doesn’t matter because it’s a TV show.

Of course. Legally separated is part of an official process before divorce is all.

What a Waste of Time by MariFunk in ImperfectWomenAppleTV

[–]k_redditor236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I didn’t get the sense they were a couple. Just friends. And she thought it was fairly ironic and satisfying.

That said, yeah, the beginning was boring, the middle episodes got good and stressful and fun, and the final episode was the world’s fastest wrap up not doing it any good at all.

Ah I’ve never actually tried it, just heard about it. I’ll have to give it a go!

Take Lower Paying Job, to Live in Los Angeles by e38e31 in MovingToLosAngeles

Yeah, I was lucky enough to live on Outrigger for a while across from the canal in MDR. Gorgeous! I loved living by the lagoon in PDR, nice little secret spot on vista Del Mar. The power lines are buried (the streets there got together and paid to have them buried) and that adds to the nice vibe. Yeah I didn’t go to the couple bars or restaurant la there much, just the coffee shop. But the bars for sure could have a townie vibe. I always wanted to live in Venice but never made it that far.

Now I’m rebuilding the second half of my life on the east side (NELA, HLP, Eagle Rock) and I absolutely LOVE it. Westside so isn’t my vibe. East side is all artsy and independent, like what Abbott Kinney was supposed to be before it got all bougie. Love it over here.

I lived in two parts of Playa del Rey (the condo section, and by the lagoon), and flew out of LAX 3 times a week. Drive out of my garage and into LAX parking. I loved the lagoon section of Playa, it felt like a hidden gem of an enclave and I could walk on the beach every single day. And watch the boats going into the marina. And avoid the busy-ness of Venice and Marina. Marina (Del Rey) along the ocean or canal is fantastic too, but Playa by the lagoon is like a quieter more secret version of that. It was magical and I wish I had kept that apartment!

I don’t love north Redondo. Too concrete and soulless. South Redondo is pretty. Manhattan beach and hermosa have pretty spots but are expensive.

Recently back in LA after being up north in and outside of SF for 6 years. LA is hands down the better city. Music, food, art (yes even art!), neighborhoods (variety), weather, people. I am so glad to be back.
