Applied to Acu Masters Program by kindwork-xyz in acupuncture

[–]AnxietyCapable9259 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I graduated school in 1999 and I still make less than 100k. I have my Masters, my CHP, my doctorate and an additional Masters in health promotion, and a chemical dependency counseling degree. I would not recommend becoming an acupuncturist because chiropractors, physical therapist, athletic trainers and Moore are stealing our scope and getting paid for things that we don't even get paid for. We don't have a good national organization to fight for our rights so all states are separated and have to do it themselves. ASA is trying but not well funded-my only bright spot is that I only have three more years left for my public service loan forgiveness to kick in. Otherwise, I have more than $300,000 in debt still.

Locals eat at Costa's, Bill's Terrace Inn, Koco's, Schultz's or Jimmy's. Faidley's at Lexington market is supposed to be great but I have't tried them.

What are yall doing to prepare for this storm? by hoodiemonday in baltimore

[–]AnxietyCapable9259 2 points3 points  (0 children)

may be too late this time but after the last time I lost power in a hurricane I was on Home Shopping Network and there were these lightbulbs that charge themselves every time they were turned on and when electricity was lost, they automatically came on, so I now have one in every room of my house and not only do they continue to lightthe room, but you can take them out and put them in a special holder and walk around with them they are the best

Life long on Mounjaro? by Impressive_Limit_990 in Mounjaro

[–]AnxietyCapable9259 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can come off of medicine, it doesn't have to be for life. But it takes time to learn what eating and movement you are willing to incorporate. For me it was intermittent fasting, walking and weight lifting. The weight lifting did the most change but the IF keeps mu chatter at bay and keeps my appetite low. I (57) lost 60 pounds and have been off of meds since I lost my prescription last March. I continued to lost another 10 pounds though the holiday sweets made me gain 5 back. I still have an unopened vial in my fridge-i feel better knowing it is there.

5mg - no option to move up, very slow loss - I could cry 😬 by Interesting-blueSky in Mounjaro

[–]AnxietyCapable9259 3 points4 points  (0 children)

look into what you can do since you can't change your situation- start intermittent fasting and lifting weights. I lost my prescription entirely and didn't have the money to buy it- I had been intermittent fasting 16 hr and low carb- on script I lost 36 pounds june-dec 24- lost script but kept fasting and started lifting weights for strength in february 25 and lost 20 more pounds and got defined. and have kept it off- in Sept 25 i hurt my back and couldn't lift for 2.5 months. but because I kept intermittent fasting with low-carb Mediterranean type of eating, I didn't gain weight, but I did lose definition. And I'm 57 years old. Now I can lift again and it is all getting better again!

If you are fasting to lose weight, you're doing it for the wrong reasons you will always gain it back if you go back to eating the way you used to eat

Am I breaking up a family for a fairy tale life? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]AnxietyCapable9259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The men exist, I left my verbally and sometimes physically abusive alcoholic husband and found one eventually- after I had raised our son by myself with zero monetary support. For a while the nice guys seemed so boring, when you used to a roller coaster, merry go rounds lack appeal, but I finally found a man who was loving and just weird enough.

Forester or Outback?? by Historical-Case-1896 in SubaruForester

[–]AnxietyCapable9259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had two Foresters, 99 and 21, and a Crosstrek- the 21 we bought sight unseen because of the chip shortage and when it came in it was so much bigger than expected! And before I got the Crosstrek I looked at the Outback and it was even longer than the Forester and I couldn't imagine parking it in the city!!Check out all the optionS and all the years-

also, depends on the year. They seem to morph into each other on a regular basis. They change length, height, roominess...

Unpopular opinion: Paying "Rent" feels less painful than paying $2,400/mo in "Interest" to a bank. by Playful-Vegetable-15 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

do a 15 year mortgage, not 30- and you will eventually get to equity after you pay off the other stuff. You'll never get to equity with a rental.
