I dont remember what I had to fill in but I did buy at Costco so I paid around $10 per package. Perhaps that plays into it. I would just use them at Costco but they wont accept them.



I just had a friend end up in the hospital because of pulmonary edema. Her symptom was shortness of breath. I have no idea if her oxygen level was affected but if this isnt on your radar, its something to consider. The doctor thinks that it was brought about because after being fairly sedentary due to an injury she started working out (indoor walking aerobics). We were working out together and she didnt seem (to me) to overly exert herself.
That must be it. I buy the 16 oz jars, but always on sale (of course). So I was happy with my coupon because I was able to get the 28 oz jar free.

My doctor told me that I didn't have that. I think that my shortness of breath is because of the brillinta I'm taking and my low blood pressure. Brillinta really sucks but it's keeping me alive so I can't really complain. I was able to do two 2 mile walks today and I felt better on the second walk than the first. Maybe there is some hope for me after all. I'd really like to get back to how I felt a month ago.
Two miles is pretty good!

I was doing 5 miles before I started taking brillinta. I did another short walk this afternoon so I put in around 5 miles today but it took me 3 walks to do it. I feel pretty good about it especially considering the day I was discharged from the hospital (around 2 weeks ago) 50 feet would've been a lot for me. I hope to do 5 miles a day from now on and eventually work up to where I can do 5 miles in one walk.

I have HBO Max and I'm looking for something good to watch. The only thing that I really liked so far is Succession and I can't wait for season 4. I was going to cancel my subscription until Succession starts up again but they made me an offer that I can't refuse. I just need to find a show that I like. I ended up watching Shark Tank on CNBC and a surfing video on u tube. Jan wasn't a great month for me but if you're a surfer you have to be loving life right now.
Your walking plan sounds great. A three mile day for me is unusual, and that's all broken up and walking around shopping and stuff.

We are too cheap for HBO so no suggestions here. We switched to Hulu for tv in the fall, so I've been watching The Handmaid's Tale, but I had to take a break. It's too brutal to watch all the time. Watched some Jonah Hill movie on Netflix tonight (You People or Those People or something). The beginning was laugh out loud funny, but then it turned into just okay.

We really enjoyed Nine Perfect Strangers if you havent yet watched that. White Lotus was uneven but at times pretty enjoyable. Big Love and Game of Thrones if you have never seen them.

I just made a long fruitless trip to a CVS that BS said had 5 Apple Cinnamon Cheerios
2/$8 this week - $1dQ x 2
Well, they had more than5!. All expiring 2/5/23 Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

CVS disco'd the smaller size AC Cheerios (at least here) quite awhile ago. Wondering if this larger "family" size is also on it's way out and this store just happened to get the end of the warehouse stock.
If anyone sees them when shopping and it's convenient for you, could you check the pull date?
(green box)

I did manage to get an RC (reluctantly, had to get SM approval!!), but wonder if my area would make me trek it back out to the issuing store to use it.

Hey guys! Looking for some Dominoes advice. The pizza place. I dont normally eat their pizza but I am going to need to order some pizza on an upcoming Saturday for a teen party for our neighborhood. We are locked into Dominoes, they deliver to our neighborhood and in December I was able to get a good deal on gift cards. But like any good SDer, that's not good enough for me. So, I'm asking, how to score the best deal at Dominoes on a Saturday. Are there paper coupons somewhere? Internet deal? Should I download the app for app deals? Highly regionalized local specials that y'all cant help with? What's the Dominoes scoop? Thanks!
Ok so I haven't read this thread all week and I came here looking for an update about your pizza situation and there's like 5 pages to read lmao.....

Did you end up with a Dominoes deal? 6.99 each? Have you already answered these questions in the coming pages?!?!

I paid for my first month on HBO ($14.99 with no commercials) which was a real bargain because Succession is so good. I tried to cancel and they gave me $7.49 no commercials for the next 3 months. I tried Hulu before that and binge watched SOA and then tried Lost which I had never seen. I made it thru the first season but the second season was awful and I had to stop watching. Claire and Charlie drove me out of my mind and I still hear Walt, Walt in my dreams or I should say nightmares. I didn't find much else on Hulu that I liked. I meant to try Handmaid but I forgot. I was on NFLX before that but I couldn't find anything there. Emily the Criminal was pretty good but other than that...
House of the Dragon on HBOMax! You don't have to watch Game of Thrones first, but it's also on HBOMax if you want a longer binge lol

I'll probably start the Last of Us on HBOMax soon too, but I usually watch Hulu for tv.

I feel like I'm being bombarded with The Last of Us. I can't turn around without seeing another promo for it. It's worse than that commercial for the reverse mortgage with the guys in the cave. I'll give House of the Dragon a try but I probably can't get to it this weekend. Too much shopping to do. I went from doing no shopping to being obsessed with it.
Shopping, where? CVS had a decent showing this week but nothing to go crazy about. Sounds like you should go slow this weekend until you get to the Dr on Monday. Don't have a medical setback because of CVS. They're not worth it.

Relating to the diet talk.

I am coming up on my 5 year keto anniversary this year.

I had bad acid reflux and was overweight which led me to change my diet. I lost 77lb and am doing great. February I am going carnivore to do an elimination diet to see if I can figure out some tummy issues I still have. I feel like I am going to miss some things I have most days. olives, pickles, sauerkraut, and homemade kombucha.
What are you planing to eat as a carnivore? Literally only meat? And for how long? I saw a girl on tiktok share her carnivore diet and she eats eggs and butter and whole milk as well. The textures are so unsettling to me. I don't know how she can just eat a stick of raw butter lol eta: her handle is @steakandbuttergal and she eats ALOT of butter laugh out loud She's been doing it for years so I guess she's over her initial cravings, but I would go crazy without fruits and veggies. But hey, it seems to work for her. I hope you can figure out what's going on.

I waited 2 days to go to the hospital when I had my first heart attack because I thought it was acid reflux. My heart attack happened at 10 pm and I went thru hell that night. I went to Rite Aid as soon as they opened and got some Pepcid. Believe it or not, it worked and I felt a thousand percent better but the next day I felt really bad and knew it wasn't acid reflux and finally went to the ER. My troponin level was around 5000 when they did my lab work. Moral of the story - go to the hospital.
EEK!EEK!EEK!

You really have been through a lot Pickle. Glad you are here with us, you are adding bits of comedy and knowledge.

I'm going to be tacky and change the subject to the most shallow of shallow things: Hair Coloring. My hair is medium to dark brown (and has been colored with a wide assortment of drugstore hair dye). Can I use a Swarzkopf blond (says it lifts color 6 shades or something) for chunky highlights? I'm not picky about the results. And if it is too crazy, can I then use another brown over it? Will the highlights still show a bit, since I will have "lifted" the color in those areas?
You can use it, but I wouldn't trust the "6 shades" claim lol. If you really wanted good results, bleach it first. And yeah if you don't like it just use another brown over it lol. They won't really show.
