https://estatesales.org/estate-sales/ca/santa-clara/95051/january-2026-collectibles-midcentury-ephemera-2418686 here is my current auction. Most of the lots start at $5.00 and I would say 80% of my buyers are local resellers. I do ship, but as another comment says auction shipping is expensive even though I do it myself. I also work for another auction company where lots start at $1.00. I think local buys are the best, and watch the auction at the end to scoop up lots of volume for the good pieces mixed in.

Just had this happen with a Lladro shipped to China. The buyer asked specific condition questions and was sent detailed pictures. The item was packed and padded and got there, with no damage to box, but customer complained that some "flower petals" were missing. Their pictures showed it was exactly as they had bought it with no damage, yet they were refunded in full. As another poster stated this guarantee may be know by buyers who want to get away with it. I appreciate not having to deal with the problem.

Hi, after 25 years on the pump I had to go off last year due to this reason. I am now on MDI because my scar tissue and body started rejecting the cannulas. They literally would migrate out! I never thought I would leave pumping, but I got to say its really nice to have a break, and I don't know if I want to go back.

I notice now 45 years into the disease it takes a lot less carbs to treat LBS. Not saying the grapes were a lot. I usually use GU and in my younger days needed a whole 25 Gram. Now I rarely take more than 1/2 a packet and do get high swings. I was out, did not have any food and was running around, got hard-boiled eggs at Starbucks that come with fruit and bread. I ate the eggs with 3 grapes, and a bite of bread not an issue.

I wish I paid $25.00. I'm having to get a compound and pay $399.00. what is your secret??

Same here! I never was "fat" before and as I aged I became more insulin resistant and got rolls around my middle. I had uncontrollable sweet cravings and hunger. Now I feel normal, and I second the life changing game changer!

I'm on month 2 and it has been life changing for me. Not so much the weight loss, I am on the lowest dose and have lost about 5 pounds. The way my insulin works now is so much more effective. I feel like I have something back in my body that I have been missing all these years. I have about 35 pounds to lose and I plan to stay on the low dose and slowly get there along with improving my blood sugar. I have dropped from 7.8 to 6.6 A1C in 60 days! The relief from the constant insulin hunger has been so great, I still have cravings but not nearly like they were. I might be feeling better just by experiencing being in range for up to 80% of the day. Something that has never happened for 45 years. I asked and asked my endocrinologist for help, but the "pharmacist who handles type 1" was never even helpful at all. There was no advice she ever gave me that helped my blood sugar levels. In fact she told me to take 2 units Aspart upon awakening fasted, to combat morning rise, and I had a dangerous low that was hard to get out of. I put myself on GLP-1 Tirzepatide through a compounding pharmacy. YMMV, and I am new to this but so far its a big help. I still use insulin and my cgm to monitor my levels closely.

No offense meant to anyone, I'm talking about my weight and Pilates journey. When I was heavier I found bridging to be almost impossible, I carry my weight in my belly. I am 5'4" and I think its a weight/ ratio thing. Using the gray platform hurt my low back. Putting more springs on helped, but then instructors would say to move the carriage and that was not good for me. I started using my arms, with hands under my low back to brace my back in order to get my back up to the right position. Its not pretty but it worked for me. Losing weight also helped me. Even the first 5 pounds I was more comfortable in the bridge. Hope using your arms or the gray ball can help.

with Mounjaro I feel like I finally have something in my body I was missing.

I had to go off the Tslim because I have been diabetic for 45 years on the pump over 20, and my body just would not accept the cannulas anymore. If there is a bad place on the body and you hit scar tissue you can kink the cannula like another poster said. when you pull it out you can see that it is bent. If you pump 10 units and are not going down, you are not getting the insulin.

Check in with your provider. I just want to say that what you eat matters. I get stomach pains after eating high fat meals too. Also 8 pounds in two weeks, could mean you bumped up pretty fast. Maybe step the dose back and lose slower?

I agree, that no instructor, or member should be commenting on what you weigh, what you eat or how you look, unless asked. I went from long hair to a short haircut, and it was pretty overwhelming how the instructors and class members had to make comments about my appearance. Not to side track your thread, but I think we all need to slow down on making personal comments to people we don't know. Hugging is extremely inappropriate. How do the people NOT offered a hug feel? I wouldn't want to hug her but if she only hugged skinny people that would be weird. I would not report her, I would just say something directly to her is if happened again, unless that makes you feel uncomfortable holding that feeling. I usually try to sit with something like that because I often feel worse if I say something.

I would freak out, if the instructor hugged me on the way out!

Gu Sports gel is the best! Exact carbs, ( 25 G) portable does not spoil, not fun to eat. I keep them everywhere. Some have caffeine so I put a selection of non caffeinated in my bedside drawer. I keep one rubber banned to my to go coffee container. No one has even ever mentioned it.

Same, this is my second go round since I dropped Pilates in the Pandemic era. I am over 100 classes in this time, and had about 2 years continuous practice last time. At that time I was almost able to do a roll up and a teaser. Now at 67 years old and gained weight I cannot do. I find the weight gain around my middle inhibits some Pilates moves. I suggest just keep trying and do what you can...

47 years type 1 67 YO " They keep giving me more insulin and I keep gaining weight and nothing else has changed." My case exactly. Even though I was eating the same, exercising etc I became fat, and I think it was Insulin resistance. I went through menopause long ago. Taking Mounjaro has been like a miracle. My A1C has dropped I feel great and my weight is decreasing slowly. My insulin needs are MUCH more manageable. I started with 1/2 of the starting dose, then went up another third and I have not had side effects. went from A1c8 to A1c 6 on first 3 weeks. I have not had the experience of getting off the treatment and I hope to continue if I can get the medication till I reach my weight goal, then go onto a very low microdose.
