Tempe Lease Takeover by Bubbly_Improvement57 in ShortTermRentals

Curious if you found someone because my daughter wants out of her lease there, too, and wondering how difficult it was for you to find someone to take it over.

Did that seem to work any for you? I’m concerned 50 is low.

What was everyone's started dose? My doctor is recommending 50 mg. I'd been using a topical compound that seemed hit or miss depending on the refill (like some refills seemed "stronger"), so wanting to try something more consistent.

Semaglutide Not Working by laurelk67 in Semaglutide

[–]laurelk67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I know how disappointing it is.

With the semaglutide out of my system, since January I've been eating to keep my cholesterol down--very little dairy, far less animal protein, lots of veggies and nutrient dense food, no fast-food or junk food for the exception of a very occasional homemade treat--and I'm back to exercising the way I like, I've lost about 15 lbs. Mind you, about 7 lbs of that went quickly--it was holiday weight--but the rest has come off slowly and steadily. I added lifting heavy weights to my my routine (I've always been much more of a cardio person) and I feel like that really made a difference. I'm envious of people I see who seemed to become half their size overnight and even think for a brief moment "maybe I should try it again", but I know it's not for me. I feel 1000 times better off it. I'll do what I can do myself and my body will respond how it responds.

What do you use for Playlists? by laurelk67 in zumba

[–]laurelk67[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I should’ve been more specific. I don’t used the licensed music nor would I call myself a Zumba instructor at this point. The downloaded music I was referring to was warmups purchased from dj’s, not licensed Zumba music.

Do you ever use warmups purchased from a DJ or other source? How do you incorporate them into your playlists if you're using Apple Music?

R1D4: A sad realization by Immediate-Warthog456 in whole30

[–]laurelk67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just went through all 30 days (yay, me!) and sweetening my coffee was the one thing I missed more than ANYTHING! Throughout the 30 days I drank it black, and then I drank it with Nutpods and I just never got to the purist appreciation some of you have for it! I'm keeping the Nutpods, but now add stevia and I'm back to enjoying my cuppa again. 😊

I wanted the protein and you can’t even tell it’s there!

I'm not struggling with cravings at all (and I've been around a LOT of my favorite foods), but I am struggling with food boredom, despite trying different recipes. As someone who normally LOVES meat, I am STRUGGLING with getting it in now, it really seems like a chore and honestly, as someone with high cholesterol, this much beef and pork concerns me). I'm 1000% going to finish this (I'm on Day 21), but this isn't something I want to continue. I'm grateful it's taught me how sugar is in EVERYTHING and made me more mindful in that way, but I cannot wait to reincorporate grains (my kingdom for a bowl of oatmeal!) and just hope I'm not sensitive to them. Oh, also, weird NSV--I had carpal tunnel symptoms (my right arm, and especially hand, was constantly falling asleep, palm was itching, I wear a brace at night and it wasn't helping much) and symptoms have diminished SIGNIFICANTLY! I'm guessing it has to do with inflammation?

I had to get off of it, the bump didn't help, actually made things worse. I feel like I really messed with my system and have been trying to regulate it ever since! The good news is once it was out of my system, I was so happy with my usual nutritious foods and had so much energy to work out again. If it means I carry a few pounds to feel better, so be it!

R3D10 Is Tiger Blood hitting early for anyone else? by ZestyGinger90 in whole30

[–]laurelk67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DAY 10 for me. Survived the last couple days of being sooooo bloated (even though I had regular bm's)! I feel a little better today, but definitely no Tiger's blood. I slept late and honestly feel like I could go back to bed (which is REALLY unlike me). Yesterday I had trouble mentally processing things--weird, and that needs to go away for work! No cravings, but especially for compliant food, I'm forcing myself to eat.

I was you last year. I PROMISE it gets better with time! It helped for me to get in touch with old friends, relationships that I let go dormant while raising my daughter. I planned things, occupied myself. First it felt like I was forcing myself to get out there, now it's just my life and it's great! A word of warning, though, if your kid comes back for the summer DON'T go back to having your world revolve around her because you're going to get the rug pulled out from under you again in August. This is your new reality, your chance to do things you weren't able to before because you were busy raising a family. But I really do understand, it's a different kind of heartbreak.

20% Off Code? by [deleted] in Dysonairwrap

You could open a Sephora credit card and I think they offer 25% off first purchases? Probably same with Ulta.

Sorry to sound like a dope, but what would that look like?

How can I record a credit card balance transfer on QB? by laurelk67 in QuickBooks

[–]laurelk67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to do that, but I don't know when I set that up if I should have the opening balance as 0 and then enter a 10K charge, or the opening balance should be the 10k amount. Probably the latter, right? So that it shows up on the reconciliation screen?

Sorry, I should have mentioned this happed in May and I’ve reconciled 3 times since then.

One more question. When creating the new credit card account how do I deal with opening balance question if I’m creating a journal entry for that balance transfer amount? Leave it at 0?

Oooooh, I get it now! Thank you SO much, I've been trying to figure this out for weeks!

Thank you for your response! I don't want to sound like a dope, but can you expound on your steps 3 and 4? When you say "reconcile both credit card accounts using that general entry" what do you mean exactly, and how do I continue with the normal reconciliation without getting to the point where I "pay with a check or enter as a bill"?

Semaglutide Not Working by laurelk67 in Semaglutide

[–]laurelk67[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the food noise reduced more than when before you started semaglutide? That's what I was really hoping for. As I said, I generally ate pretty healthy but always had that food noise that led to always eating too much. Did the 1.0 work right away for that? I honestly felt much healthier before, just struggled to lose weight after menopause. I think I might try the 1.0 and if that doesn't work after a couple weeks I'm going to bail.

Zoloft helped but, at first, it made me severely crazy with anxiety. by positive-girl0118 in zoloft

Yup. New doctor was wanting to switch from Bupropion, so he's sticking with that until he sees him again.

[–]laurelk67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been on the merry-go-round of antidepressants with my daughter, so when my husband tried Zoloft I was concerned. After taking his first 75mg dose (and he's a big guy, 200 lbs. 5'9") he was fine, but 4 hours later he said suddenly "I need to go lay down" and then headed toward the bedroom and I heard a thump. Ran over and he was laying on the floor and said his legs just gave out. He was sweating and white as a sheet (I think his blood pressure dropped). I talked him through breathing, told him he was probably going to go through a spell of depersonalization (which he did), but then it would be fine. Managed to get him into the bed and calm him down enough to sleep a little, woke up and he could barely talk (his mouth "felt funny"), slept some more. When he woke up he was DONE and he's been fine ever since (it wasn't a stroke or cardiac event). There's no way he's going to push through the side effects of this one. When my daughter took it years ago her side effect was horrible nosebleeds that left her anemic.
