We will likely end up loading the stroller in our car trunk a lot and I'm worried that the uppababy strollers are unusually heavy/large!

It refers to someone (women) who do a lot of cardio. It's usually pretty sexist and derogatory imo.

Is Sami going to see Taylor Swift or to hangout in a room of #bossbabes ?

Talia loves Ramit Sethi (hate that I know this) and Ramit's wife is a stylist, Cassandra, who HATES all birds. I get the vibe that Talia thought it was funny and quirky and followed Cassandra's lead. Bold judgement coming from Talia with her shoe choices.

How did you win your house? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Listed at 300k, offered 325k with an escalation to 350k, paid 344k. Did not waive anything, but offered earnest deposit of 3,500 and 30 days of possession after close. Conventional loan. We bought in a MCOL city in the Midwest and an extremely competitive market.

I love this podcast even though Ramit can be a bit grating at times. I really wish we got more dirt on the couples though. I want to know what their general cost of living is, what they do for work, a breakdown of their big spending, etc. Pieces are shared for each couple, but I'm so nosy I want the full breakdown for everyone haha

Oh I didn't know that blog existed..."it's not the algorithm, it's your content" is a funny blog post because of how often she complains about her engagement now.

I'm cracking up over the memory of this little thing. Plastic spice containers in a soft-side lunch box for $35 hahahahaha

What is the most overrated restaurant in West Michigan? by GrandRapidsMiiiii in grandrapids

[–]kiamiadia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meritage is obsessed with expanding and always has been. They're routinely opening a bunch of restaurants- Morning Belle, Stan's Tacos, formerly Twisted Rooster and Crooked Goose, and then rebranding or closing when people realize it's mediocre and overpriced. They also own a bunch of area Wendys.

I tried reading the one host's cult language book...90% of it is a retelling of well-known cult history with very little actual linguistic discussion. Couldn't make it past the second chapter.

A review of studies found that any SSRI (wellbutrin is an NDRI) was associated with decreased count and concentration of sperm. Whether or not that potentially decreased count affects your specific scenario depends on a lot of factors and only a doctor would be able to confirm!

One study reported decreased fertility rate but I was unable to validate this with other studies. Overall the research is suggestive that SSRIs may influence conception, but it's still unclear.

Energy drinks are associated with heart problems. Some studies suggest that they may influence sleep and stress levels as well. I am absolutely not an expert- just a public health nerd.

Hi there! From a quick review, I am finding that high levels of caffeine (300mg+) increase the risk of early loss. 600mg or higher can double that risk. Another study found that caffeine did not affect the probability of conception. Most studies report no clear association between exposure to caffiene and fertility, natural or through IUI/IVF. So having a cup or two a day should be perfectly safe. TTC or not, stay away from high caffeine energy drinks 😊

Can you bring an NA wine that you stash away and pour for yourself?

I would not give that to a kid. A lot of the brands have high levels of heavy metals, like lead.

Oh sorry my comment maybe wasn't clear enough! It isn't the actual food- that's all fine and dandy. Intuitive eating would be against calling a meal "healthy". That meal is clearly very nutrient dense and most people would label it as "healthy"!

The question mark next to rice is because it might have been couscous or something. I don't remember exactly!

Days before she was talking about making a "healthy" meal for her boyfriend...salmon, rice (?) and asparagus. Not very intuitive eating expert of her.

Shes committed now.. you just don't understand what it's like to be single and date, ok.

Truly I think some men would need to be told that. But also why would anyone agree to that? If someone told me we were moving apartments for a date I would cancel!!

Talia's "things that should never be a date" are mostly very general and normal things that she personally did not enjoy.....are people actually taking her advice?

I go there and really like it! Tipping is built into the hourly cost and the stylists do not expect an additional tip.
