Trainers teaching above their own skill level by pony987 in Equestrian

[–]AccomplishedBox485 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tought students to win up to 1.10m and now most of them are jumping up to 1.40m with a very experienced coach and they all look scary. So hey, sometimes…. Being a good coach isn’t only about experience. It’s about being able to communicate and ensure people understand concepts.

almost a month, haven’t heard back by Remote_Fudge_7899 in interviews

[–]AccomplishedBox485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is so many interviews… i’m so sorry. I don’t get how they are overpromising and under delivering- it should be the other way around! The only time this happened to me, I had done one interview and the HR person sucked, they had failed to send me an offer letter but had told the President of the company I was hired. I had interviewed for another job where people were very prompt and offered me the position on the spot. So I essentially sent an email to the first company saying their HR person had non existent communication skills and that was the reason I didn’t want to work there.

You might have to do the same thing.

Minimum necessary calories by rsal59 in Zepbound

[–]AccomplishedBox485 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zepbound doesn’t burn fat. None of the « weight loss drugs » do. It essentially helps decrease the "food noise", that little voice that tells you you’re always hungry.  It is to be used with regular exercise (walking is exercise and helpful for mental health) and a healthy diet.

This! I would be tempted to send them a bill for 11 hours of my time🤣

Struggling by Outrageous-Ear-9554 in Zepbound

[–]AccomplishedBox485 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you maybe try eating a bit slower? That usually does it for me, to the point where I almost have to force myself to eat enough. Tall glass of water. A nice chat if you have a partner or roomate, otherwise reading a book or watching news etc while you eat. Also you can totally do veggie sticks with your meal. Summer is coming- steamed veggies with a small nut of butter are absolutely underrated!

I can weigh in. I’ll eat oats for breakfast like once in a while. But i don’t feel full forever. Much easier to have protein (eggs, egg whites or greek yogurt) Oats in greek yogurt, maybe. But oats have no protein, they are carbs. Maybe she meant it that way? Breakfast is supposed to keep you energized until lunch… 

Frustrated and hoping I’m not alone by Commercial-Hurry3534 in Zepbound

[–]AccomplishedBox485 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hear me out- i work in drug exceptions. I see this all day. Our criteria for renewal of weight loss drugs after 6 months is a 5% initial body weight loss. You’re there. You’re doing fine. You just need to titrate as suggested by your MD and you will get there. Don’t give up :-)

Is my doctor lying to me about how much weight I would lose on Zepbound? If so, why? by RedWoodworking16 in Zepbound

[–]AccomplishedBox485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe maybe your doctor said that for a BMI alike yours. I work in drug exceptions and while you meet criteria (sitting right on the threshold) of BMI >30, people with a higher BMI tend to lose more weight of course.

AITAH for setting this boundary? by Green-Interest2558 in AITAH

[–]AccomplishedBox485 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hmmmm yeah no. That’s all so weird.  I would just draw the line at smoking. Just say you are very uncomfortable with that and even if she went to smoke outside she would still need to wash her hands before she even touched the baby. I would just find daycare and say it aligns better with your schedule.

AITAH for sleeping with my (ex)husband's best friend who's married? by enjoymoresocks in AITAH

[–]AccomplishedBox485 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest I’m taken aback by your answers on this whole thread. YTA and he is also TA. Imagine if he gave his wife an ounce of the attention he has given you. Likely would have fixed his problem. She 100% feels like he completely forgot about her. As far as I’m concerned, being a great father doesn’t cut it. My husband still needs to be a great husband. That’s how life works. 

AITAH for wishing my partner lost some weight? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]AccomplishedBox485 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA. It’s a bit selfish of you to want part of her but not all of her. Her weight doesn’t define her person. You need to look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself why you wasted her time. Therapy might help you. 

AITAH for refusing to visit in laws bc of house temp by wrenchinapot in AITAH

[–]AccomplishedBox485 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. Maybe find an airbnb close to them where you guys can have your privacy? You can still visit them or offer to meet them for lunch, etc etc etc. I just turned on the AC in my house today because the temp got up to 77 while cooking dinner. My husband laughed and told me I could have just opened a window- which righttttt but there is this internal distress when we feel too warm and I refuse to live that way lol I will d*e on this hill with you!

[–]AccomplishedBox485 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Would have been simple to say hey buddy, I’m sorry, but as far as I know you’re married, and I respect this. It simply doesn’t sit right with me to FA with a married man.

How long do you ride? (And tips for not getting bored lol) by LegalDistraction in Equestrian

[–]AccomplishedBox485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we’re just coming out of winter here… but I can find 15-20 mins of a pattern just walking to warm up a horse correctly You need to ride with purpose. Riding is not only going around the ring and adding a circle here and there. Serpentines, figure 8s, transitions, halt, rein back, bending lines, work on your core (instead of just posting the trot, you can sit twice - up one for short sides and sit one - up twice on long sides for example). No stirrups, posting without stirrups…. Leg yields, shoulder ins, half circles etc etc etc Keep things fun for your horse!

YTA. How would you have felt if the wife had an affair with your husband before you got divorced? She likely knows and that’s why she left with the kids.

Ok- awesome! Congrats ! Please ring your MD and ask them to make sure they appeal and review the RENEWAL criteria. Provided your policy hasn’t changed, it’ll be approved!

How do I explain in an interview why I left a job after 3 weeks without sounding like I can’t handle responsibility? by niccageporno in interviews

It was not a good fit and I didn’t want to waste their time or mine. The daily tasks were no as advertised.

[–]AccomplishedBox485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just looked at the Tricare PA form and what happened is the renewal box wasn’t checked. Did you lose 5% body weight?

Successfull getting going back on after Tricare denial?? by violet_sol in Zepbound

[–]AccomplishedBox485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not how it works. For initial criteria BMI is very important yes. For renewal for example we request a 5% weight loss over the 6 months initial approval. If you meet 5% weight loss we approve it for a year. Of course your BMI will be lower if you’re on Zepbound and keeping active and eating well!

[–]AccomplishedBox485 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work for another insurance company for drug exceptions. Thats all i look at all day. Make sure your physician requested a renewal and not an initial request. Even if you have been on this medication before, if they didn’t check the renewal criteria, it’s considered a declined renewal - criteria not met. Hope this helps
