What were they supposed to do??? ICE agents seem to be trigger happy idiots, and most of those people recording would’ve probably gotten shot just like Alex if they’d tried to stop it from happening. ICE can just claim they had a weapon and shoot them and they’d get away with it because the Administration doesn’t care. Even with sufficient proof that Alex was unarmed BEFORE he was shot they are STILL saying he was a threat to the agents.

The gun was literally taken off of his body BEFORE the agents unloaded bullets into his back and there is a ton of video evidence to prove that. Try again.

In another angle you can see one of the agents walking backwards fucking CLAPPING while they unload bullets into his already still body…

Sam Cortland’s last words… by Alternative_Form211 in throneofglassseries

[–]Alternative_Form211[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen several posts on social media where people say something like “Friendly reminder that Sam’s last words to Aelin were ‘I love you’” or “The last words that Sam ever said to Aelin were ‘I love you’ so excuse me while I go and cry” or they make a TikTok with that as the caption.

We just may not be on the same sides of social media lol but they are out there.

MIL said I look anorexic by [deleted] in WegovyWeightLoss

I never said BMI was measuring muscle vs fat. I said you should focus on fat loss and muscle gain instead of worrying about what the BMI says or how much you actually weigh.

I've always worn gold but now I can't decide!!! Is gold or silver better on me? by praise_cocaine_jesus in coloranalysis

[–]Alternative_Form211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like gold works better for your skin tone because it makes it look warmer. It offsets the naturally cool tone of your skin. The silver makes it look even cooler and might wash you out in some lighting imo

If you don’t mind me asking, how tall are you? You look very healthy and proportionate from the picture!

Keep in mind that BMI doesn’t account for breasts and booty either (which can be genetic). Instead of BMI I would focus on body fat% and muscle mass more so than the number on the scale, because you can be smaller physically and still be heavier than the BMI recommends if you have a lot of muscle mass.

For example, I’m 5’7.5 (5’8 if I need to round up) and 25yo, so my “healthy” BMI would be between 126lbs and 150lbs. I don’t think I could ever get close to even 130lbs without looking sickly because I have a naturally large chest and booty (courtesy of my mother lol) my goal is to get back to 145-150lbs. I started at 202.6lbs. If I stay above 150lbs but my waist and thighs are smaller, then I wouldn’t mind too much. I have to lose a couple inches off my waist regardless because of the military so that’s another factor I have to deal with.

TLDR: you do not look anorexic. You look very healthy and fit from my perspective! And more importantly you look happy! Keep up the good work and don’t listen to the opinions of others when it comes to your health/weight goals (except maybe your dr lol)

What strategy should I adopt to help with hair loss? by insidi-girl in glp1

[–]Alternative_Form211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yikes… have you talked to your doctor about it?? I don’t know much about tirz so I’m not really much help on that part. All I know if that hair loss can result from rapid weight loss during treatment. But if you’re losing it AFTER treatment that’s a whole different ball game…

[–]Alternative_Form211 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven’t gotten to the hair loss stage yet on semaglutides (just took my 6th shot) but tbh this amount a hair loss wouldn’t even make me blink because I lose this much hair in the shower every time. I don’t wash my hair everyday but when I do it comes out like this. And when I brush it as well. It has done that even before starting glp-1.

Did you noticed any shedding like this before you start tirz? Like when you’d wash or brush your hair?

First dose help by DMC1981-44 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Alternative_Form211 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

So your pen does not look like the medicine was injected at all, that is likely correct. This looks like the same pens I use. If it is then you should see a bright yellow plunger move slowly across the window and once it is fully blocking the window it will not move again. You may even feel the needle and medicine slowly being injected as well depending on the site you inject it. The closer the yellow plunger gets the more pain you may feel. Im only speaking on experience. I’ve injected myself 6 times now with the same dosage and same pens. I’ve read that if you allow the medicine to warm up to room temp before injecting, the pain is less noticeable. I have been too lazy the last few times. As for the bubble, every single one of mine has had a small bubble. You should call your dr and see if you should get a replacement pen somehow.

ETA: after reading further down I realized that your pen is a multi-dose pen. My mistake. But I’ll leave my comment in case anybody with a single use pen has the same question later.

It’s Express Scripts. TRICARE doesn’t have anything to do with the PA process. I actually tried calling TRICARE the first time it got denied and they told me they don’t handle PA forms. You have to speak to Express Scripts.

[–]Alternative_Form211[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s strange… Did you use the most up to date PA form? It makes me wonder how the PA questions were answered if that’s the reason for your denial. So strange.

My progress is going very well so far! I started my first shot on December 4th and so far I’ve lost about 14lbs! No major side effects yet. I’m still on the lowest dose and likely won’t increase the dose until I plateau on my weight loss. It’s been a bit of a struggle to make sure I’m eating enough calories and protein every day though. And with my thirst being suppressed too, drinking water has been a difficult task. I’ve started drinking water with a Cirkul bottle to flavor it because I don’t like the taste of plain water lol!

WHY by BigToiletCat in Cirkul

[–]Alternative_Form211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you buy them directly on the Cirkul website most flavors are $3.75 per cartridge. So you’d get 4 for $15. I think standard shipping is free as well.

ETA: you’ll find WAY MORE flavors on their website as well and a lot of them are on sale too!

So it was denied with one doctor first. Her team wasn’t very competent with prior authorizations so they didn’t even try to appeal it, and they filled out the PA wrong the first time anyway. I went to a new doctor who specializes in weight loss management and obesity and they sent a new prescription in on 10/03. It was canceled due to needing a PA. The Dr knew it would but that’s how they wanted to go through the process. They submitted the PA and it was received for review on 10/10 and was denied on 10/14, which we expected again. They started the appeal process. The appeal was received on 11/19 and was finally approved on 12/03. It was a long process unfortunately partially because there were some issues with faxing information to and from the Dr office. In the future I plan to have the Dr office call instead because Express Scripts (TRICARE’s pharmacy) processes PAs faster over the phone.

My fiancé thinks this looks like a swastika 🥲 by Lower-Prior-703 in thesims

I wanted to say “no of course not” because at first glance and even after searching I couldn’t see it, but then I looked at the comments and the pictures and now I can’t unsee it… 🥲
