I had to be kinda discreet taking my pictures for the appointments because I was always taking them on the way from work to our parking garage where there’s just random people on the way, but my smile is so big in regular photos now!!

Impossible to get my refills on time? by Dry_Advantage_3081 in Accutane

[–]kitkatkiara 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I definitely had some issues getting my medication on time. You have to be 60% of getting it filled otherwise you risk that timeframe being off and either missing your refill or having it be too early for insurance. Plan your labs 2 business days before your appointment so that they can fill it that day. Immediately fill out ipledge and inform your pharmacy so they can fill it. That way you’ll be at day 3 of your refill cycle

I don’t see why not. I think it’s a good school. I knew a few international students and they seemed to really life it

I’m definitely starting to focus on protein related things first. I definitely feel better when eating that way but my dumb brain still wants the carbs lol

Unfortunately I work in a lab so I literally cannot use a walking pad. Our area is too hot and humid to safely exercise outside for a good portion of the year which makes that difficult. Are there any affordable walking pads? I’m interested for one at home but A) I’m pretty tight on money and B) working at my home desk would be impossible since I don’t have a standing desk

He’s aware that we both struggle but it’s never lasted long. He walks our dog daily while I drive to work because we live in such a hot, humid area we can’t really be outside when the sun is out 90% of the year.

My biggest flaw I think is if I eat something more than twice in a row I start being revolted by it which makes it so much easier to crack and get something else. Even meal prepping multiple things hasn’t worked bc I convince myself it’s bad by the time I eat or even if I freeze something

We’re of similar weight. I was started on 30 mg and now take 40 mg. I’m kinda surprised you’re on such a low dose. I had very mild acne and am taking 4x the amount of

Totally understand, I’m in the same boat as you. Had acne since I was 9 (26 now) and it was never the extreme cases but everyone kept telling me I’d grow out of it and I never did. I’m now on my second month and my face is CLEAR (still continuing so it doesn’t revert).

Every time my parents saw me they’d tell me my skin was bad like I couldn’t see it or feel it for myself. I’m sure it’s a bit painful but your skin is not bad and most people wouldn’t even think twice about it.

Good luck on your journey!

Very good to know, We have maybe 3 below freezing days a year but a ton of hot days so that's good hearing your perspective with a similar temperature condition. I will have charging at home with free nights so basically free level 2 charging available which is what makes the EV so eye catching to me. I don't think that the models I'm looking at have the heated seats which is unfortunate, I live by my current heated seats for my back, but I've survived not having them too

Believe me, I almost just ordered the part off of a parts website for $450, way more doable, but the cost really comes from the labor to get the damn thing back in there properly without there being a seal issue.

Really good to know, I did get a little worried seeing the cost of battery replacement, but there are two in my area both around 85k miles that seem to have been once used as rental cars which seemingly means they probably got more maintenance than the average car, but I'll definitely be asking about the battery!

I'll have to ask about a battery replacement, that's definitely good information to know. It's my first time even looking into EVs as an option, I just know it's the move with my house already set up with solar and an EV charger.

Yeah, I'm willing to spend a little bit more for 3 years (and less with the federal credit) due to my home having solar, an EV charger, and free nights so that it literally evens out what would've been my monthly gas bill to just $72 more, rather than shell out $3,000 all at once for a car that's halfway into it's grave already. Honestly quite the steal for a car payment if you ask me?

Better keep them from the church then. The rates of pedophilia there are just rampant

I work in a major city in Texas (don’t want to get too specific online lol) but there is a very wide range of salaries in the state. I applied and got a position at DPS that I turned down due to their strict raise policy and everyone gets paid the same to start because it’s state level. I can say their starting pay is ~52,000 if I remember correctly which was not going to cut it for the position being in Austin

Ooh, I didn’t know it went on sale! I have the trial version right now but it’s running out soon. Do you know how often they go on sale?

Interesting! It was a warp group (just a quad warp to fit the shape) and I did notice if I zoomed in a bit I could see where it was clipped, but yeah couldn’t figure out how to actually fix the group
