If you go to the tinned fish sub r/CannedSardines, any time Fishwife comes up, it becomes a contentious comment section because of the pricing/branding 😂

I tried them last week and geez! Bad texture, bad flavor, bad everything.

That caught my eye too! What's chic about globs of cheese and butter 🙄

Same lol! I got it at the Clinique counter in Nordstrom.

I literally do this. Sometimes night me will look at the dirty dishes and say, "Morning me will understand" and go to bed without doing them lol.

The NYT antipasto salad was posted on YT! The full recipe/ingredients are in the description: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/xvm7_uGTghE

It's so good! And super easy to make; no cooking needed, just chopping ingredients.

I'm betting it was likely a comment (or several comments) on her IG or TikTok posts but she's blaming a reaction channel instead to create a bully/victim narrative. I truly cannot see her ever sitting through a critical video about her.

I made a giant bowl of Antipasto Salad and will continue to eat it throughout the week piled on toasted bread. It's delicious and satisfying all my charcuterie board cravings.

I really wanted to make chicken enchilada this week, but the weather is going to be so hot and I know I won't want to use my oven. So instead...

I'll pair this esquites recipe (elote corn salad) with chicken skewers.

And maybe make this Orzo with Bacon, Leeks, Peas, Spinach and Lemon recipe, but substituting rice for orzo.

Lucky and Foodmax are SaveMart, Andronico's is Albertsons, Safeway is Albertsons.

The Kroger divisions in the west are QFC, Fred Meyer, Food4Less, and Ralphs.

I saw this previously. A completely incompetent (and mean as fuck) manager was hiring for her team and we told her to hire the competent candidate. She didn't want to; she said she wanted someone who could "learn the job together" with her, not someone who can swoop in already knowing more than her.

We convinced her to hire the competent candidate, mean manager felt threatened and tried to bully her into quitting, mean manager got booted instead and the competent candidate was promoted to replace her.

It's not an unfounded fear, I guess lol.

Same thing! I told my landlord I needed to pay the pet fee and she ignored me so 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’d probably go with a short necklace, either something a bit chunky or maybe layering a few short chains and pendants.

Yikes, it sounds like she might be getting sold snake oil.

Could all the recent running and air travel have made things worse for her so that she feels pressured to take extraordinary measures?

This is my bet. There's no way that Anna hasn't been told by doctors for years that her weight is severely impacting her health. And nothing to this point (getting a CPAP machine, crying about not fitting on things/in small places, crying because she couldn't hike in Hawaii, etc.) scared her enough to make real life changes until Novo Nordisk paid her.

This surgery really came out of nowhere, so I think she had a health scare that made her seek a faster/"easier"* way to address her lipedema as a stand-in for making healthy, reasonable longterm changes to her lifestyle.

_

^{*I know surgery isn't easy but some people find it less difficult than having the willpower/effort to do the alternative, like treating lipedema through compression pants, losing weight, changing diet, etc.}

She had to go off the GLP-1 (wegovy) to prep for the surgery, and and she gained and started to feel pain for her "lipedema", I guess a different pain then the one from the Zepbound. Anna has a very high pain tolerance so she was surprised. She is now in pain not just legs but arms and side.

But if she's had lipedema for years, and only taken a GLP-1 agonist more recently, how did going off medication suddenly trigger lipedema pain? Shouldn't she have been feeling pain for years, then no pain while on Wegovy, and then a return to pain after stopping?

Stuff like this is why I find it so hard to trust the words coming from her mouth. It always feels like she's twisting the story or being deliberately vague or misleading in order to sell you on her BS.

I thought that was weird, saying she went to Zepbound after a Novo Nordisk sponsorship! I'm not sure if I believe her.

The prices on J Crew Factory are cheaper (like $70-90 for a blazer).

She has knee pain but still did a whole “I’m a runner now” arc? 😬

Absolutely. Who cares how many times he apologizes if he keeps repeating the behavior? Talk is cheap. His actions tell the true story. He's an unrepentant jerk.

Good point. Canada is dominated by just 5 grocery retailers, so it would be limiting to partner with anyone other than them.

Thanks for the tip!

Based on all this info, it doesn't feel like you guys share a balanced, healthy, or reciprocal relationship. You could pull away and see if she tries harder to keep up the friendship or just flat out end it. I suspect if you pull away, she will not put in any effort into maintaining the friendship and it was naturally die a quiet death.

You can't see me, but I am rolling my eyes.

Yeah, I used to wheel mine a couple feet away into my bedroom, but now I don't even bother. It either sits out in my living room all day or I stand it up beside my desk.

Way cool! My question is how do you figure out the style of neckline that best compliments your shape, especially when it comes to form-fitting tops/tanks? I tend to wear crew necks, the typical 1 inch strap tanks, v-necks, and high neck halters, but I never find them very flattering. I have a long torso and I feel like my choices tend to make me look wider or my neck looks shorter. Any suggestions on how to figure out what's flattering? :)
