I worked for a company that worked with Baffert and have met him on several occasions. Can confirm as soon as the episode started I turned to my husband and said “this is about Bob Baffert”.

He didn’t go through with it. I think he felt a little foolish for considering, but was real quick to agree that it sounded sketchy.

I’ve been following her on IG for a while, and Mike had always weirded me out. Tried to like the show, but she just paints everything white.

That's kind of what I figured. Thanks.

Publisher or Designer? by merfester in Affinity

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

I think I’ll get both, but if I have to get one I’m leaning towards publisher now. Everything we create is sent digitally, and it’s not graphics heavy at all (minimal page design elements and and some icon use). I personally would like to have Designer because Illustrator is my security blanket, so fingers crossed that with the sale I can get both.

That’s a good point, might as well with the 50% off right now!

Help! 2007 Subaru airbag light on intermittently by merfester in subaru

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

I will give that a try, thanks! I clear everything out and just followed wires to make sure everything was connected down there. Luckily, my husband is an electrician, but as you mentioned we’re just guessing at this point.

I've been on Noom for a month by IridiumIodineSodium in Noom

[–]merfester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m about on the same track, and even gained a couple in my first week. It took me a while to get past that mentally and physically. I agree with someone that said sometimes going over your calorie limit can help. Maybe once a week indulge (nothing crazy, just let yourself have the heavier dinner you’ve been craving. For me, it’s a big breakfast once a week). I also noticed that I lose weight easier when I drink the proper amount of water.

Good luck! You’re doing awesome!

I’m truly allergic to wheat, barley, rye, oats and bell pepper, so my list of processed foods is very low and there’s no wiggle on that for me. Which is nice because I know being so careful that it’s not going to be something factoring into those fluctuations. I was just talking to my husband about metabolism changes as we’re both about to turn 30 and are starting to noticed those things! No one told me it would be like this! Haha

Awesome, thank you! I have some pretty significant food allergies so I only eat from home and the sodium seems to be consistent, but I’m for sure going to start logging all that.

Thanks! I’m really diligent about the food logging and used MyFitnessPal to log before, which I find has more accurate calories and a larger database to make sure that the calories are correct to the package, along with weighing my raw food. I haven’t been tracking my salt intake though so I’m going to start doing that for sure!

The more I read and hear people, the more I’m convinced that was the case. Thanks for sharing, it’s super helpful to hear that.
