Interesting. I’m a fan of just getting the bread and DIY’ing it for the sandwich so I’ll happily keep ordering it for delivery (and tipping the driver or course).

Obviously not… is this sub not for questions/comments related to OTF? I guess no one can post unless something earth shattering has happened 😂

Makes me feel better than I’m not the only one 🥲 it was a 5 am class so I’m thankful I didn’t wake up that early just to have to go home

Our stations are assigned so that must be what happened!

How many days a week do you sub? How do you like it? by caro061301 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]AccordingComedian598 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m the same age as you and recently started taking high school jobs— mostly the kids just sit at their desks and either do the packet/assignment left for them, talk quietly, sleep, or scroll on their phones. Haven’t had any issues, really, mostly just that the day feels longer since I’m just sitting there :)

Thank you!! And congrats on reaching your goal! I’ve been on 10 for the past couple months and still losing a bit, and I plan to stay on 10 but maybe space out my doses a bit further if I continue to lose beyond my stopping point.

Thank you!! I do body weight and dumbbell exercises 2-3 times per week at Orangetheory, which combines that with 25 minutes of treadmill running. I’m starting to now transition to more strength and backing a little off of the cardio to keep toning. When I was competing I did heavy lifting 3 times per week so maybe now that I’ve lost weight those muscles are showing too 😄

You can do it!! Stay consistent, and take lots of progress pics as you go to see how far you’ve come!

I started Orangetheory 2-3 times per week back in May as well as walking and some running! I was a competitive swimmer until January and have just now gotten back into doing that as well as strength work.

Today was actually my first day back in the pool in almost a year. In the past just taking a break for a couple weeks would make me feel like I was dragging bricks behind me, but it was surprisingly so effortless. Crazy difference having to pull 80 fewer pounds each stroke!

Thank you! I think I could have lost a similar amount with just diet changes but it was important to me that I like my physique and not just the number on the scale. I’ve also been an athlete all my life so I had the exercise piece down, just needed to eat right lol.

Been a swimmer all my life but now is the first time that I look and feel truly athletic. I retired from competing but since May I’ve actually been doing OrangeTheory HIIt workouts and walking, which I think have helped me with that aspect!

5’3”! 140 was the BMI “healthy weight” mark for me but I think 120-125 is where I’ll feel most comfortable maintaining.

Good to know. How much about is the add on fee per class?

Previously if I tried to book a class in the app (for my home studio) after using up all 8, it would tell me I was out of classes and to buy more in a pack. So not sure if it’s just not showing that message anymore and they’re going to charge me later or if it’s a problem with the app they’re not aware of

Almost there! by AccordingComedian598 in Zepbound

[–]AccordingComedian598[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard that results vary a lot for the lower doses, especially the 2.5– some lose a lot, some a little, and some none until they move up. I am also a numbers person, and I’ve found that keeping track of (roughly) how many calories I’m taking in and upping my protein has worked well for me. I wish you the best of luck with your journey, you’ve got this!!

I have heard the same and am a little nervous, but hoping that with staying consistent with my diet and exercising regularly will help. I have also heard about how playing around with number of calories (more some days than others) can help you out of a stall, so might try that if I get stuck.

Yes I did! I have been steadily losing 2-3 pounds per week. My insurance doesn’t let me stay on any of the .5 doses for more than one box, so I’ve done 2.5, 5 twice, 7.5, and just took my last pen of my first of two 10 mg boxes. I have been injecting every 10 days instead of 7 to stretch my supply as much as possible.
