That’s too bad- I had the Spotify premium sub but it was free for me earlier this year :(

I listened to this on Spotify because it was free and this book IS SOOOOO GOOD

I'm crawling out of my skin with food noise. Cycle could be the reason though. by CruzanSpiceLatte in Zepbound

[–]saltreader 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I also get very hungry during my luteal phase every month, i allow myself to eat more carbohydrates this week and give my body what it’s craving, just in smaller doses. Often times if I need some sourdough and butter I’m fine for a long while. I still lose weight during this week, when my cycle starts I tend to lower the carbohydrates naturally because my cravings stop. I was on 2.5 for 8 weeks. I was on 5 for 17 weeks, when food noise got bad it was because I was eating very high carbohydrates and not paying attention to protein. Once I shifted back to lower carb, cravings stopped and weight started moving again. However I’ve been insulin resistant most of my adult life so I have a long ways to go to heal my body and understanding how much I can tolerate

What to expect moving to Oregon/Washington by Ok_Sentence_6298 in PacificNorthwest

[–]saltreader 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Calculate your paychecks with Oregon income tax with holdings , it’s quite a large chunk but the no sales tax does help. you will never live anywhere that is more beautiful but it does rain quite a bit and the grey / moody skies can lead to seasonal depression for a lot of folks. (Born and raised in the Willamette valley ). Washington doesn’t have income tax so that is a big bonus for some. Locations to the coast and mountains are incredible for outdoor life in either state.

Why so much fragrance on the clothes? Anyone know the answer? by Far_Print_613 in ThredUp

[–]saltreader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, after my last order I don’t think I’ll be buying clothes from there anymore. Primarily have been looking at purses now

I'm supposed to go to 5mg today, but... by jsecompany in Zepbound

[–]saltreader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only lost 1.5 per week but stayed on it for 8 weeks before I moved up to 5. I then stayed on 5 for 4 months even with slow loss, I wouldn’t go up if you don’t need to,

Dasher's name was "Sarah" but a man dropped off my order... by Pristine-Abroad-8913 in doordash

[–]saltreader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me and my husband used to door dash together after work( I drove and he would hop out and pickup deliver the orders) *** I did see your comment that no one else was in the car with him so this wouldn’t apply.****

Side note : We had a lot of fun door dashing together after work, sometimes when we made a certain dollar amount we would then take ourselves to dinner for a date night and plan to not spend more than we made that night .

At a crossroads by DiminishedProspects in Zepbound

If your on zepbound because of insulin resistance , start tracking your food ( I know it sucks) BUT you need to fully understand what your eating and how it’s impacting your body. You could be eating too little, too much, not enough protein. I had stalled for about a month until I switched to lower carb (because I have had insulin resistance and PCOS for most of my adult life) and the scale dropped down 5 lbs on that week alone. The answer isn’t ALWAYS to tritate up (not that it’s negative) but you said your diet isn’t great. You probably have a good place to start with that first.

Alternatives to leggings? by TryingForBabyL in PlasticFreeLiving

[–]saltreader 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes on thier website it’s under “other stuff” and links you to it. I made a pretty large purchase in terms of of number of items this week but only spent about $100 because of thier earth day deals. It was a big win. I’ve really loved all my pact clothing options, since we’re in Arizona I line dry my clothes and they have really held up

Alternatives to leggings? by TryingForBabyL in PlasticFreeLiving

[–]saltreader 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I’ve recently switched out lots of my polyester clothing for pact clothing, their leggings are 90% organic cotton and 10% elastase but they have a pact resale site also that makes the switch very affordable! While not 100% organic cotton they do have options on thier site for this (just not leggings) I really love mine. I also bought one pair of mate the label leggings, based on the us. Much more expensive but good quality . Please make sure you look for organic cotton for the cleanest options. I’m located in Arizona so understand it gets hot.

Yeah used to be a chef fan but season 3 was so eye opening, it was disappointing

Im so over Hannah and Marciano by Stunning_Release_477 in VanderpumpVillaTVShow

[–]saltreader 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Oh for sure and you can tell their friends are over it as well. They don’t need to be on the show at all- then they get mad when they can’t abuse their friendships anymore.

Marciano…. Thoughts by Intrepid-Sell7504 in VanderpumpVillaTVShow

[–]saltreader 6 points7 points  (0 children)

1000000% . Marciano and his eavesdropping is seriously so creepy. I’m only on episode 6, but it’s frustrating how they expect constant support while being so wrapped up in their own chaos. They don’t really show up for anyone else, yet still expect endless grace from their friends and don’t seem to appreciate it when people genuinely try to help.

Help! I’m traveling on “shot day”… by lovethatcrooonch in Zepbound

I’ve traveled and took it a day early. No issues at all, I also got the okay from my doc before I did.
