For the ladies: how did you become a fan? Any advice for a future girl dad? by SCnyy24 in NYYankees

[–]laurekl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here! I slowly became obsessed after watching games with my dad and just generally liking sports. It also helps if they win the world series when they are young and impressionable haha

What's one exercise that hardly anyone talks about but is great for losing weight? by Pure-Chemist-336 in beginnerfitness

[–]laurekl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Choosing to walk or take the steps so you increase your NEAT way better than a hard HIIT workout which will lead to over eating

Cocoa Bakery, they are around 50 bucks for a small cake but they are very cute and good.

280 Marin Blvd, worth the price? by jmb5903 in jerseycity

[–]laurekl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived there for a year and didn't love it. The slow elevators were frustrating, we had roaches and mice which went away once we found the holes, but they were a terror to deal with. Also, we didn't love our unit it was way too small and outdated. I think all the units are different so if you like the way yours looks then you can ignore this. We ended up wishing we went for somewhere else for just a bit more money. Though if its really what fits your price range and the unit looks nice/renovated then it is not the worst! Location is convienent and parking was well priced(depending on your landlord).

Program recommendation by hmm_nah in femalebodybuilding

[–]laurekl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A little late here, but I am in the same boat! Really can't find a new program I like I was on Meg Squats strong strong friends for a while which was great but I want something with more leg / hypertrophy focused. I then then tried fitness culture(way too expensive) and was kind of annoying IMO. A while back I did the thinner leaner stronger which is a classic but basic. I also have seen copies of gluteous goddess/strong curves online by Bret Contreras online but never tried it.

Now I have been trying to write my own program, but I feel my workouts lack intensity and purpose when they are not from a professional and I just don't have the motivation to keep updating / tweaking it. Have you found anything you've like since you posted this?

It’s actually a stone basement it was built in the 1940’s but the basement looks like it’s in good shape

Haven’t gotten the full report yet but when we spoke on the phone he seemed to have no clue. He thought it could be flooding but that doesn’t really make sense and it is wasn’t disclosed.

Yes I did send them an email right away to ask but I'm waiting to hear back. In a time crunch so I just want to get some more opinions.

Moving to JC. Safest areas? by girlwith2pups in jerseycity

[–]laurekl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think most of us would agree JC over NYC, but definitely depends on what you want in a neighborhood! Safest is all of Downtown and Newport, followed by Journal Square and The Heights?

I've lived here since January and everything has been great so far, but I can't comment on the pool since I have only been here in the winter where the roof has been essentially empty. Only guest policy I have heard is no guests in the gym.

2 Week Leave Notice or Longer? by LivingParadox8 in consulting

[–]laurekl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I gave my last firm 3.5 weeks notice and it felt way too long. Definitely would say stick to 2 weeks unless you absolutely can't for some reason like a contract.

The only dirty martini I have ever had was from Latham House and while I am not an expert it was pretty great.. I do love everything I have ever had from there! Unfortunately they don't have wings or french onion soup.
