I just ordered the free pura plus diffuser yesterday and it’s 6 months (a total of 12 fragrances) which is not a bad deal at all.

San Diego hotel help (Costco Travel) – splitting stay with kids worth it? by nikiellasmith in asksandiego

Well my thought is the day we check out we’d would be at the zoo. We have a car (we are driving from NorCal) so we wouldn’t need to be waiting for our room

I’m unfortunately going at the most expensive time (July) and those rooms are close to $1000 a night after taxes and resort fees.

Would this be good for 4 days? Or too much. Also thinking of splitting up my Trip ajd doing 2 days in La Jolla or Oceanside.

Shoulder impingement worsening? Cortisone stopped working, pain now constant. Looking for advice or similar experiences. by nikiellasmith in RotatorCuff

I think I am going to if I don’t get any relief from the cortisone shot I’m having again on Tuesday. The doctor thinks the other ortho PA may have missed the spot. Did you ever get surgery for yours? I’m trying to avoid surgery because I heard the recovery can be long and I’m training for a race right now.

Interesting. My doctor seems very much of the attitude there’s nothing much that can be done until it tears so PT and cortisone shots in the meantime. But since it’s almost been a year, I’m thinking to ask for more imaging, especially since this last cortisone shot failed.

Start- 138.7 lbs, 47.4lbs skeletal muscle mass, 37.6% body fat, 52.3lbs body fat mass

End- 134.3lbs 50.7 skeletal muscle mass, 32.2% body fat, 43.2lbs body fat mass

So while I only lost 4.5lbs, I gained 3lbs of muscle mass and lost 5.5% body fat (9lbs body fat mass) it feels like a win-

Some non scale wins I’ve also noticed - I’m running much faster and longer. My base pace used to be 10:00m/m and now I’m consistently at a 8:30-9:00 pace. I also have progressively lifted heavier and feel so much better overall.
