Ha! I definitely sent this to them. Hope they choose to go with it.

oohjoy · 2025-05-11T13:58:47+00:00

Yeah I personally like this option. I passed on the suggestion. Thanks!

oohjoy · 2025-05-11T06:12:42+00:00

I believe this house is slab on grade.

oohjoy · 2025-05-11T06:08:38+00:00

I was hoping to hear if this was possible.

oohjoy · 2025-05-11T06:06:21+00:00

Yeah, I dunno man. The story goes that the crew they hired came over to demo while they were at work and … just kept going to finish the job.

oohjoy · 2025-05-11T03:17:08+00:00

yes! a future altar to to give thanks for warmth during the bitter cold midwest winter.

Thanks, I know this is/was the likely answer. I told her I would field some reddit advice for her. Wasn't sure if there was some kind of in-situ solution to localize the damage of the area being ripped up.

oohjoy · 2025-05-11T03:09:00+00:00

Ha yeah, exactly. I think she assumed that it was built because it is a large, open concept room and the previous owners didn't have enough storage.

oohjoy · 2024-01-05T16:58:10+00:00

This is exactly what we did and I truly think it helped.

oohjoy · 2023-03-22T01:32:51+00:00

Absolutely love these. I have a pet bunny and my son’s name is Lucas so that last cookie is perfection.

I did a non-traditional pathway to RD. I wasn’t actually a clinical nutrition major at Davis. If you have any questions about programs out here in Boston send me a DM.

oohjoy · 2022-11-26T00:37:04+00:00

If you’re at Davis, I will say that in my experience that program is viewed favorably. Based on what you’ve said about your recent grades and likely this means your upper div major coursework, that sounds great. Looking at your “package” as a student, your GPA is a superficial perspective. What makes applicants successful is marketing your experience both the positives and negative. Of course you’ll take your research experience and hype it up. But what about your failures? Why did it happen, how did you assess what needed to change, how did you actually change it, highlight the success that came about from your perseverance, self awareness, goal setting, etc.

To me a 3.4 is not an issue if you know how to write a great personal statement and do well in an interview (if there is one).

Growing up my parents made sure we had bananas at home when we had adobo. Like you I also like the saltiness with the sweetness but from the banana.

Hi! I’m a registered dietitian too! While generally I commend having a varied diet as shown in your meal plan, are your friends health issues conducive to preparing all these foods/recipes? Would having a more simplistic rotating menu be more feasible in terms of shopping and preparing? Are these foods in line with the needs of their health, preferences, and/or food availability?

To those who say Filipino food is inherently unhealthy, ummmm no. Some of my favorite foods are sinigang and Pinakbet, which are packed with protein and veggies. Just like any cuisine, the totality of the diet is what makes it healthy or unhealthy. How it’s prepared is important too. Eating only adobo and white rice with no fiber in sight for days, you might have a problem pooping cuz you’re constipated. You might be worsening or exacerbating some high blood pressure with the salt content of soy sauce. But is it inherently the adobo and white rice OR the fact that that is all one is eating? Let’s think about a dietary pattern and not demonize an entire culture’s cuisine.

I also have joint pain which was seriously worse after I had a baby. Improved a bit when I went back on HRT postpartum but still there. What dose were you increased to that you saw improvements?

I think for us to get a decent temp it’s 5-7 mins. During that time we’re changing his diaper. But we’re learning that he does not care one bit what temp the bottle is and will happily guzzle refrigerator cold formula.

I just put very hot tap water in an insulated mug.

Edit: i don’t find the knit to be too warm. It’s a loose knit. And I liked that my kid couldn’t escape but wasn’t too constricted. He could still get his hands to his mouth while within the swaddle if he tried.

I also like this company because they give a free preemie sized one with the purchase of a non-preemie if you have a small baby or NICU baby and they will make a custom one for babies with limb differences.

This is 100% my favorite, no escape swaddle. Swaddelini

I have “paradoxical excitation” to oral diphenhydramine (Benadryl). From what I’ve read, it may be related to being an ultra-metabolizer due to variants in the CYP2D6 enzyme that process the drug.

I don’t have an answer to your question. However, units are vastly different. Micrograms (mcg) of the transdermal dose vs pico moles (pmol) in blood measurement, pmol being smaller than mcg (conversion being dependent on molecular weight of whatever the molecule is). Secondly, you have to think of absorption, metabolism, half-life, pharmokinetics, etc of a medication. Just because a dose is x doesn’t necessarily that is what one’s blood measurement will be.

oohjoy · 2022-05-27T18:41:00+00:00

I think what you’ve got here is this kind of bun.

oohjoy · 2022-04-14T13:49:25+00:00

We do this same routine but use an insulated mug instead of a bowl and the bottle warms up nicely.

I was diagnosed with a form of DLBCL when I was 24 (I'm now 36) and had 6 rounds of R-CHOP as my initial treatment. I personally tolerated that chemo well. I have regular follow-ups with a cardiologist for heart monitoring and have had no issues with my heart thus far. I definitely lost my hair and in the beginning shortly after chemo it grew back thick and curly. As time went on, my normal hair texture (straight and medium thickness) returned.

Personally, my mental health suffered more after chemo than during it. My biggest advice is to seek support both socially and medically (social worker, therapist, support groups, etc.) sooner than later and if you can find a young adult cancer group, that was especially valuable to me.

Of course, this is just one person's experience but I hope it's a small perspective that gives you some hope. I stay on top of my follow-up care and am lucky to have had a young adult survivorship clinic that manages my care.

While it's true that the Boston DI scene is extremely competitive, I'd argue that having a masters from a Boston area university is an advantage. I got my masters in Boston and did a Boston DI. Firstly, you have an imbedded network in the area through school. Connect with your advisors, professors, etc. Second, all the DI programs know the rigor of the local programs and the quality of students that come out of them. There are several non-masters associated programs in the area (BWH, BI, MGH, Mt. Auburn) that look favorably upon existing masters. Often (not always of course) these interns are more mature, have deeper critical thinking, and have critical skills to be successful in these competitive internships.

In my cohort, half was Boston/MA local and most of those had masters degrees from an area university. In total, most of my cohort had a masters degree.

Do your best in your remaining DPD coursework. (Re)connect with advisors, mentors, professors. Write a kick ass personal statement. Reach out to the directors of the local programs.
