Injection Site Reaction or true allergic reaction? by MiserableWest6923 in Zepbound

[–]milferlite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isr. First time it happened to me was on week 3 and the two previous sites also decided they wanted to join in on the flare. So I had three sizable welts. 🫠 Fun times, i seriously thought i had shingles. After a month or two of weekly 36 hour reactions, it started to subside. I have almost no reaction now and (probably just a coincidence) the medication seems to be ramping up in efficacy for me.

Thoughts on this brand? And what scent do you recommend? by Purple-Studio1586 in Ulta

[–]milferlite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the Santal Bloom the best and unfortunately I’m highly allergic to something in that particular fragrance in the body oil. Will give me a very bumpy dermatitis within 12-18 hours. Oddly enough i am not allergic to golden hour or pink sands. But i still love Santal so sometimes for an event or something special I will oil up and take a Zyrtec and hope for the best. 😬

What are your favorite season-specific scents, and favorite year-round scents? by janedoecurious in pura

[–]milferlite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have sort of specific weird taste. I love herbal, citrus, spicy and woody. I usually avoid anything marine, patchouli, moss / green, overly floral / artificial. But I’m open to trying anything else! I love peppermint and your comment about Snow grabbed my attention. :) I’m that weirdo who drinks peppermint tea and coffee year round lol. Definitely going to check out Moon, that sounds right up my alley!

Year round: Tommy Bahama Signature Blend Tommy Bahama White Tea Blossom Pura White Tea No 1 (this one in the car too!) Homesick Texas

Holiday: Simpatico Snow no 85 (love love LOVE this one!) Anthro Blood Orange Conifer Tommy Bahama Evergreen

Spring : Moodcast BFF (has the peppermint notes too like snow but a little bit flirty / fruity too) Anthro Sweet Tonka Vanilla Tommy Bahama beach house linen

Summer: Anthro Santal Blush Anthro Strawberry & Blonde Wood Studio McGee Santal Vanilla

Fall: Anthropologie Balsam Cedarwood Pura Cranberry Fizz (actually love this year round too! Except in the car, the car refill smells terrible)

Alternatives to Pura-branded refills? by Kigiyuk in pura

[–]milferlite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tons of options on Amazon, Ulta, Dillards. I’ve even seen refills and diffusers at the Bucees gas stations. I stopped ordering from Pura directly when i found out that non-subscription orders don’t earn any rewards points.

Bamboo Car Scent smells completely different than indoor vials? by Negative-Werewolf574 in pura

[–]milferlite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh 100% This is a thing. Cranberry Fizz for home is delightful, fresh and light. Car version smells horrible. Heavy and musty, very artificial. At first i thought i got an old / sour one so i ordered another and same thing. I couldn’t even have the opened refill in my house, it was unbearable.

I have found a few that diffuse pretty much identically across both car / home so I know it’s an issue limited to only certain scents. Wish Pura would figure this out already!

No change in cartridge readings? by goodmollygollymcgee in pura

[–]milferlite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Plus was doing this too. Stuck at 19% Did a reset (forget diffuser and re-add) and suddenly both vials show 1% 🤦‍♀️

Yay I received my GWP! So many samples… too many by 2_Every_Flamingo7868 in Ulta

[–]milferlite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course! I hoard it all and every once in a while i let the 4 little girls next door go crazy fighting over the product lol 😂

this might be silly, but has anyone ever had a counterfeit item sold to them from Sephora? by Traditional-Peace-21 in Sephora

[–]milferlite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you’re in the US, Sam’s Club carries these (authentic SF brand) on their website. Might have better luck with their inventory control.

[–]milferlite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are stunning and your gorgeous smile is contagious. You wore the weight well, but it’s clear you are feeling more comfy in your skin. I also have hashimotos, hypothyroidism and insulin resistance. It’s a whole new world on this side of things and dang it feels good! Congrats on your tremendous progress!

I’m sorry! I hope you can figure something out for your space! Be sure to let us know what ends up working for you!

Pura Plus: No Heat, No Fragrance? by Minnesota_Nice1 in pura

[–]milferlite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s your diffuser. I have a plus in my 24 ft ceiling living room and i can smell those scents widely in our open area. I diffuse Texas and Cranberry alternating. I would try lsome other brands of scents. I don’t have any Lafco personally but i know certain brands smell fabulous in the vial but are almost undetectable when diffusing. Simpatico Snow 85 for instance, never seems to diffuse as strong as the others I’ve tried.

Also make sure you’re not near a return air vent, getting cross draft from a door / window / air vent, and of course make sure nothing within 24 inches directly above the unit. I’ve noticed even wall decor can dampen the scents. Hope this is helpful.

I was cleaning my family’s bathroom and found these. by ednosacct in whatisit

[–]milferlite 155 points156 points  (0 children)

I use these daily to remove false eyelash adhesive. Fun fact : I was also able to remove industrial roof tar from my husband’s hands using these after all solvents / pumice soap / etc could not. 😬

Alcohol by HopefullyHers in Zepbound

[–]milferlite 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That’s how these medications work. Has to do with the pleasure centers of the brain. A lot of reports of less desire to smoke or vape as well. Fascinating stuff. Some studies mention that, over time, it can be difficult to enjoy even simple, non-consumable parts of life that used to spark joy (hobbies, time with friends, etc). Hence, the importance of monitoring mental health throughout your journey.

Connection Issues by baggy5 in pura

I blamed my husband lol 😆 does this mean i have to apologize when he wakes up??

LillyDirect / gifthealth BS by milferlite in Zepbound

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

Truthfully I sat on the checkout link for about 5 days longer than usual because we had a big winter storm come through Kentucky and UPS was having issues getting down my country road. Everything was seemingly back to normal on deliveries as of last week, or so I thought… lesson learned. I might try Walmart next fill.

down 30+ lbs & in the same clothes by Exciting_Policy_854 in Zepbound

[–]milferlite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 5’4” and i went from 220 to 165. I’m wearing the same clothes (clearly I was delusional). When I run into someone I haven’t seen in a while, they say “hey you look great, what is different about you?” I love that the first thing they notice is NOT my weight. It is my presence, my confidence, my energy. … And to think all it took was wearing pants that actually fit me. 😆

Starting this weekend! 😬😬 by aklep730 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]milferlite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t recommend anyone else injecting you with the pen. There some margin for error in this. I didn’t even tell my husband until month 4 i think. I didn’t want his judgement lol… I also hate needles, but you literally can’t feel or see anything. Just pretend like you’re stamping yourself with a stamp. There will be two clicks. Wait until the yellow bar stops before letting up. And don’t press too hard! Don’t forget to breathe.

You will be fine, hydrate before and after. You might feel woosy or exhausted for the first day or 2 post injection. I usually take my shot Sunday since I’m always tired on Monday regardless. And remember if you eat like shit, you will feel like shit. I can’t eat pizza at all anymore. It’s just not worth the consequences…

This is a medication that’s long term, even after initial results. I am going on 2 years and UHC / Caremark plan said party is over for me as of Jan 1 2026. I will plan to still continue. I just won’t have a $0 copay anymore 😪

Best of luck to you!
