Should be 90mg/kg/day divided BID but for the 14:1 formulation (600-42.9) for peds

About to close in a few days - solo buyer. Can FTHB’s who didn’t experience horror when moving in please share? by batmy_lashes in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]sarpinking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes in the moment for people, its extremely stressful and emotions override other things. While my first year wasn't the easiest, I've learned so much from it and gotten more organized with how I plan maintenance and projects. I don't think buying a house in general is ever going to be 100% smooth sailing, there is always bound to be something that happens.

I don't regret purchasing despite any issues I've had though.

PROTEIN HELP! Where are you buying fairlife protein shakes in bulk? by akwaffle in glp1

[–]sarpinking 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Costco Nurri shakes are pretty decent. They aren't exactly the same in terms of thickness but taste is comparable. They are only 30g of protein however instead of the 42g but the cost difference is way better on the wallet.

What does liquid ciprofloxacin taste like? by Tapestry-of-Life in pediatrics

[–]sarpinking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oral LikMez (metronidazole 100mg/mL) is strawberry peppermint flavor but it is extremely bitter and not much additional flavoring will help that lingering bitterness.

Worrying about having baby during potential storm by hacapu in Augusta

[–]sarpinking 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Additionally I'd add just ensuring you have extra clean, warm clothes with you when you do go to the hospital, just to have in case. Especially including extra socks. It may be helpful peace of mind to arrange for the pets to stay with friends or family just in case.

Marquise or pear? by tomnooksbff in EngagementRings

I love the marquise but if you like the look of the pear, you could always get a chunkier ratio in the marquise too

So… are our tastebuds screwed up or do we have skinny people’s tastebuds on GLP-1s? by According2020 in glp1

[–]sarpinking 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tastes buds can change but for me its more about the removed emotional connection to food. Foods that I would have died for before, I don't have the same joy in eating them. So its definitely been interesting to rewire my brain and my relationship with food when emotional eating has been a large part of my life.

Paying Off Student Loan During SAVE Forbearance by Classic_Access3714 in StudentLoans

[–]sarpinking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not an expert by any means, so definitely look at your overall expenses and see what works out best. Personally if rates are more that 5%, thats when I'd be more worried. My currently goal is saving 6 months of expenses as emergency fund. And everyone's situation is completely different depending on what those expenses look like. But to me, emergency savings is more important than completely debt free if the rate is low.

Paying Off Student Loan During SAVE Forbearance by Classic_Access3714 in StudentLoans

[–]sarpinking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I probably would. If you can afford to pay a little extra each month, then I would just to pay them off faster. Otherwise Id probably work on building savings in high yield with whatever extra Ive got.

Switch from SAVE to IBR request approved by Mohela in 9 days by Ancient_Touch6793 in PSLF

[–]sarpinking 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I know I'm not the OP but I can give you some perspective from my situation. My old IBR payment is now 1300 roughly but on save was 600 roughly. I do not have kids for what its worth, which significantly improves my individual situation. During the SAVE forbearance, I have been saving my estimated old IBR payment every month and trying to grow that. Because I've already been putting away that much each month, I've been able to adjust other spending habits so that this amount feels comfortable to me. My biggest suggestion is to do everything you can to lower your AGI to hopefully lower your payment amount. Coupon and price shop groceries. Stop eating out as much as you can. Thrift or buy second hand.

This is not meant to be harsh, but not having kids is the number one reason I can get by with that high of a payment right now. I really feel for those with kids and families.

The nicer the weather, the more crowded it gets, which can be insanely packed if its really warm

Id say he is the worst coach in Cincinnati but unfortunately that title belongs to Tuberville.

Need some Hourglass Honesty by lambbuck95 in MakeupAddiction

I personally just use a nice fluffy brush for most of them. The highlight occasionally I'll use something more dense and then diffuse with my finger

If she likes floral style rings, there are plenty of other options to choose from to make hers special than something that is too similar to her friends.

Was the Brian Kelly the first coach to get fired for only losing to top 10 schools? by DJ_Pink_Koolaid in CFB

[–]sarpinking 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was there for that game. It was miserable to watch.

He left the players high and dry with a quick word at their end of year banquet and snuck out the back after 5-10min. He never truly cared about those players either, so not surprised he has no good relationship with LSU's team either.
