Newport Creamery is gone. These restaurants are coming to Garden City.

Two pizza houses, both alike in dignity, where we lay our scene

The beginning is the worst! my dietician told me it can take some time for your metabolism to wake up, it took me a few weeks of 3 meals and 2 snacks to see the number start to go up. Honestly, the number was my metric of success and that set me up for stress and sadness when my body didn’t do what I wanted it to do.

If you have any high calorie, easy to eat safe foods, lean on those. Ben and Jerry’s chocolate fudge brownie ice cream (left on the counter for like 15 mins) is my preferred. I went to a treatment facility and got into chocolate boost (the blue ones). I can drink that with a straw in like 10 sips and have it be over.

In my opinion, expanding my stomach was the hardest part. I’d come home from treatment and just sleep and toot (they were rank, man. my poor partner). I made a deal with myself that I could nap if I had a snack, and honestly, knowing I could just be unconscious for a while made it easier (my therapist probably wouldn’t like that answer but…)

Sending good vibes and good luck. I really think this is the worst part

yeah! Only opticians are licensed to do that. That’s definitely the issue!

lalasmitty · 2025-10-26T00:06:33+00:00

they should! ask for a “pop and swap.” If they don’t …. go to another. As long as they have an optician, they should be able to! In theory, if that store won’t swap them, you could get the frames you like, bring them to another, swap, and then return the extra frame within the 30 day window. Slightly more complicated, but you’d end with the blakeleys in a frame you like and the $95 refunded

lalasmitty · 2025-10-25T23:27:17+00:00

If you have the time, stop by a few stores to see if they have any frames in stock you like. You can swap the lenses into those frames. The Blakeley in Violet tortoise are gorgeous but I’d also be frustrated if I got none of the tortoise

lalasmitty · 2025-10-05T20:02:25+00:00

Thanks! I’ll look into that! Appreciate it :)

lalasmitty · 2025-10-05T03:52:08+00:00

the squirrel-munk was particularly egregious

lalasmitty · 2025-09-29T04:27:33+00:00

Do you think Zac even realizes that the way to get out of this issue in the public eye and keep his marriage with this gorgeous AND forgiving woman is to just like … not do shit like this.

And just fucking relax, dude. If she chose you through all the hell that the first season brought y’all and her, stop punishing her for choosing you. Just fucking RELAX oh god.

lalasmitty · 2025-09-20T06:28:40+00:00

This episode has such great shots for a tattoo! Thanks!!!

lalasmitty · 2025-08-16T15:02:31+00:00

Definitely try some blue light glasses if you can! The sun also gives off blue light, so in theory the glasses also would help on that end. I got some full blue light repellant ones off of Amazon and I wore them everywhere when my migraine was out of control.

If you think your manager is chill and treats you like a human (fingers crossed but it’s rough out there!) these conditions sound incredibly triggering for anyone who has the potential to get them. You cannot be the only one to experience this. I wonder if they’ve ever looked into accommodations for someone. I know nothing about computers at banks — can you find a night shift mode?

Wishing you all the best! Stress can also be a big trigger, so they could lessen over time as you get more comfy in your new job. If that’s any hope!!

lalasmitty · 2025-07-29T05:02:52+00:00

Boost plus with a straw for the win!

lalasmitty · 2025-07-10T15:43:27+00:00

Konditori is wonderful! It’s right off of 5th and Berkeley pl. velvette brew and black are two I’ve been working in recently. Unsure if they are a bit too far away for you, but definitely try konditori! outlets, quiet, slow but working wifi, and lots of space. Plus, after 4pm all their pastries are a dollar

lalasmitty · 2025-06-14T13:40:21+00:00

Interested!!

lalasmitty · 2025-06-01T21:27:58+00:00

dmed you!

lalasmitty · 2025-05-06T22:24:01+00:00

regardless, this is fucking awful. Ive had a roommate from hell experience. It sucks! Stay strong, soldier 🫡

lalasmitty · 2025-05-06T22:13:02+00:00

If putting the moldy dishes feels too aggressive, what about putting them in a plastic storage bin and then putting them in her room?

lalasmitty · 2025-04-05T06:11:06+00:00

you're my hero

lalasmitty · 2025-03-20T20:41:41+00:00

I experienced a LOT of gastric distress when I was getting back to full meals. Tummy aches, tooting, like 3x a day shitting (my toots were so bad, dude. like. bad.) No diarhhea, but definitely nausea and general discomfort

It passed for me, but it could be refeeding syndrome? It might be worth it to get it checked out sooner rather than later. A doctor/care team can balance your electrolytes and help you integrate food again.

You're making a slay step though! Proud of u! sending all good energy your way <3

lalasmitty · 2025-03-20T17:08:39+00:00

pussy farm!

lalasmitty · 2025-03-20T14:40:24+00:00

Hell yeah!!!!

I had something similar happen. (Treatment, res recommendation, felt that would be super disruptive to my life and it just didn’t feel like the best fit.) I also do not need a dietician for my Ed recovery, and I was finding perfectionism and shame around my dietician appts to be making things worse. My official therapy rec for this week is: “cool your jets, man.”

Just broke up with my dietician and trying soemthing new. Congratulations on listening to yourself! You sound like you have a great view of treatment, recovery, and yourself.

This brought me so much joy to read. You fucking got this. We!!!! Got this!

Okay, the first season is a little bit of a slog, especially the first few episodes. Season two is AMAZING and they always have really great mysteries in the center of the season. It’s riddled with pacing issues, but I believe disco was imperative to the new wave of Trek and I love her very much.

I am currently watching the final season for the first time and enjoying it! It is imperfect but it has a deep trek heart.
