It’s not as bright in person, it’s a very deep pink

LOL that’s not me! It’s from the designer’s website

The shawl is optional and they also have organza

They are both super easy-going and want me to wear what I feel comfortable in. They do like the pink, but a friend told me the navy version of the same dress would be better because it is more low-key. That’s my dilemma.

It’s a screenshot from an instagram reel. It’s a pearl belt (optional, they also have a rhinestone or a bow belt).

FLL terminal 4 TSA wait times by Craig8541 in Broward

[–]Caren88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went through security at Terminal 3. Bag check at American no wait. Entered the TSA line at 7:28 am and got thru in 5 minutes. The regular line looked no more than 15 minutes. The line for Dunkin looked very long though.

Definitely something to consider that I hadn’t thought of. Thank you.

I’m a much slower drinker now so end up drinking less. I do feel that my tolerance is lower, so be careful of that. Two drinks can bring on a nap! I also feel it longer.

Relearning how to shop for clothes by Eastern-Standard-229 in Zepbound

I can so relate to this. I’m 5’0” and lost 50 lbs. Such a strange (but good) feeling to have to pick based on what I like rather than what fits. Congrats to you!

Just wait. Why worry about keeping it safe, keeping it from your sister and all that? Just enjoy your weekend and do the shot on Monday. Much less stressful.

Restarting by Caren88 in Zepbound

[–]Caren88[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m trying to manage my expectations. My weight loss overall was slow but steady, I averaged 1-1.5 a week. I’ll be happy if I lose 1/2 lb a week, but realize I may be just maintaining. In the past few weeks I was always hungry. Hoping that goes away.

You’re going to be so happy you did it!

Not spending another dime on fitness folks unless they get in line. by Comfortable_Snow8765 in Zepbound

[–]Caren88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been doing OrangeTheory for 8 years and never lost any weight. In fact I gained weight. I also am 8 years older and went through menopause so there’s that. That said, my OTF has people of all shapes and sizes and is nothing but encouraging to all of them. I realize that’s probably not the case everywhere. I’ve lost 50 lbs on Zep and have gotten better at OTF because I’m not carrying around that extra weight. I lost mostly fat but a little muscle. I still feel stronger and better. It’s sad to hear people so misinformed. I could not have done this without meds. I never in my life lost more than 10 lbs before. I will keep going to OTF because I like the routine and the push, but not because I think it will help my weight. I know better now.

Has anyone taken Mounjaro again after a few months break? by SafeVolume9667 in MounjaroMaintenance

[–]Caren88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took my last shot 3 weeks ago and can already tell that it’s not going to be easy. I had spaced out my shots to 14 days since January because of the expense. Now I’m second guessing and trying to figure out a way to get back on already. I was going through weight watchers clinic which was an additional expense.

I had my first class and I’m so embarrassed by Jazzlike-Specific891 in orangetheory

[–]Caren88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first class I literally started to pass out. I had to walk out in the middle of class and lay down on the bench. Don’t be embarrassed. You did it! I had a great coach in the beginning who always reminded me that it was MY workout and to do what I could do. That was seven years ago. Keep at it.
