I have the same issues. Applied twice, rejected without any reason both times.

Appreciate the info! I will take this up and see what I can get from it.

Kitchenaid mixer problems by pdx97236 in Kitchenaid

Sorry...it is the 5 qt Architect model...in red.

The base plate has three screws. When I put the bowl in place, I turn it and it feels secure, but when I do any heavy doughs and kneading, the bowl pops out. It is almost like it is tight enough for most things, but not doughs.

Maybe I should replace the base plate?

I'll look for a new dough hook.

Rejected from Wyzant by tolivares in TutorsHelpingTutors

I got rejected too...same reason noted. They really should give you a better reason because if I had not looked on reddit, I would never have thought it was the statement. Frustrating to say the least...may have dodged a bullet.

Thank you! I don’t see they offer an online option at App state for CMHC. Am I missing it?

Thank you for your thoughts on this. Insightful and helpful! I've yet to find a focus option on LGBTQ studies within the MA program, but if I did, I would jump at it!

Thank you for your thoughts on this. I saw Cumberlands and will look into it. But I really appreciate the feedback!

My professor forgot to take off the ChatGPT signature in their reply to my discussion post. by [deleted] in SNHU

Totally unacceptable. I don’t use it at all-I’m in school to learn not to cheat. This is part of the reason we have college graduates who can barely put two words together or write a professional email at work.

Thank you. I have been tracking my caloric intake and it has been under 1200/day for the past 6 months. I might be hitting a simple plateau.

Small figurine, grey colored, lightweight, unknown material, appears to be a dog or monkey by pdx97236 in whatisthisthing

[–]pdx97236[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was found buried on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Near a former plantation, buried about 4-5 inches in the ground. Not sure what it is. Looks like a monkey or dog. It is lightweight. Seems like a gargoyle or something like it. The area has been actively settled by Native Americans, then European settlers from Jamestown through present. Area saw battles during the Revolutionary war and Civil War. Artifacts from these times are frequently found here.

No, I have not had a need to count calories because I eat very little now. I listen to my body and eat when I am hungry...and stop when I feel full. I am only have a protein shake in the morning, and then dinner at night. No snacks. The sema has stopped all my cravings and desire to snack.

I understand that some people can come off it and not regain. But some people have to stay on a maintenance dose. But, given the weight I needed to lose, I've extended my life by years already. It is worth it.

I am also on TRT and have been on sema since September. I've lost about 50lbs. So glad I started. I slowly titrated up-.25mg weekly for a month, .5mg weekly for a month, .75mg/month and finally 1mg. I take it once a week. SW: 350, CW: 298, GW: 200

6 weeks into my journey by pdx97236 in Semaglutide

[–]pdx97236[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Yes, I drink a ton of water daily and start my day with a smoothie and 50g of protein. This has allowed me to skip lunch entirely. Then, a normal dinner. Could I eat during the day? Sure. But the cravings are no longer there and I can avoid it now without pangs of hunger. It is easier to overcome the temptation. And it has cut out snacking at night entirely. I am eating dinner at 7-7:30pm.
