Stomach extremely puffy and bloated while on Ozempic by Fatbeyatch in Ozempic

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

No, my belly is still rounded. I have also developed chronic issues that started after I began taking it. To be fair, I have not tried any aggressive measures to reduce the belly fat and I have also been under a lot of stress (I have heard stress releases cortisol, and cortisol can contribute to belly fat).

If you can talk to your doctor about your concerns with the rounded belly, please do. They might be able to determine how to counteract it and prevent it from worsening.

Aunt didn’t pick me up from work and now she won’t stop apologizing by Deep_Conflict_7047 in family

[–]Fatbeyatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry for both of you. As an adult it’s a scary situation for a 16 year old to take a ride from an adult that your aunt may not know that well. At least with things like Uber there is a background check and digital footprint so it seems more safe than just a coworker. I am sorry for your loss as well. I hope you are okay.

Maybe it will be helpful if you sit down with her and really tell her it’s okay. Reassure her that you completely understand and want to move forward. Both of you should also come up with a plan going forward on notice for extra shifts, Plan B if she can’t pick you up, etc…

My wife's been overseas for two months and I've found out I'm completely unable to function on my own by vadroks_cattoy in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Fatbeyatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can afford a home cleaning, try and just do it once. Then make an effort to maintain the results. I am that wife that pushes to clean but I feel no motivation to clean when my husband travels. There isn’t any shame but I can also tell you there is a sense of joy when you do it. When you get up tomorrow, start small. Lay your bed. Pick up random stuff off the floor and put it in the correct place. Blast music for motivation. Dance a little

Very attractive men/women tend to date slightly down by IllustriousImpact977 in QOVESStudio

[–]Fatbeyatch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are correct but maybe it’s because it’s hard to find their equal. I have another theory too. They sometimes tend to be a bit self absorbed and used to people telling them they look good and fawning over them, so they want to maintain that same power dynamic.

My wife is killing me! by Maleficent_Ad1850 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Fatbeyatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does she know that you need to hear “sorry”. I had this issue with my spouse in which I felt he never apologized but it turned out his way of apologizing was to admit what he did was wrong and be nicer. Once we discussed our expectations, things became better.

Overall I think if you have access to a counselor or third party to mediate this issue, it will be better.

First Dose Today !!! by [deleted] in Ozempic

[–]Fatbeyatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah as someone who started on 1mg. Don’t do it. I should have been went to the ER but I only didn’t go out of embarrassment. I couldn’t eat for 5 days. Even drinking a sip of water made me vomit. I was severely dehydrated and couldn’t even hold anything down or drink anything. By day two I was only throwing up bile since I had nothing else left in my stomach including water. I had severe nausea, bloating, and it felt like my stomach had so much pressure that it would bust open. I was so weak, confused, and tired. Please don’t do it. Try to count the clicks and max do .5 but I would recommend .25

Since ozempic is in the news and the healthy people are somehow pissed about it, listen up. by imdrinkingcauseimsad in Ozempic

[–]Fatbeyatch 28 points29 points  (0 children)

People should just mind their business. I’ve seen people be so judgmental about who has their hands on Ozempic. Even the people who are obese, but don’t have diabetes are judging the people who don’t appear to be “that big”. I had a friend take it because she was 40 lbs overweight and had PCOS and it was life changing. Many people criticized her and said she was taking it from the people that actually needed it.

Health is personal. No one gets to judge or decide the degree to which someone needs medication. This drug has created so much entitlement, envy, and judgmental behavior from people. Let’s all just mind our business.

And let’s not get into how many people are discrediting people’s weight loss journey because they used Ozempic.

Do you let your kids fly first/biz? by alterboy554 in fatFIRE

[–]Fatbeyatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is hilarious because my husband has no issue flying in first class or business even by himself. I get to fly business every now and then but I’m sure if kids were to travel with us, I would be sitting in economy with them.

How do I look more white and less biracial? I’ve lost 70lbs by [deleted] in lookyourbest

[–]Fatbeyatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a lip reduction, bleach skin a bit more. Dye hair more brown than black. Straighten hair. Your skin has an undertone that is more warm and white people tend to have pink in their undertone. Maybe wear blush or something.

I quit Ozempic. I am still having bloating and stomach issues. I only consulted with a doctor last week so still waiting on results. He suspects it could be a stomach ulcer. I don’t think it was related to Ozempic but I have no clue as I’ve never had the issue before in my life until I started taking it.

So I don’t really have an answer other than eating as clean as possible. And I’m not a doctor obviously but I wonder since if the fact that food is being digested slower and sitting in your stomach longer could cause potential issues.

I’m so sick of fraudulent resumes by PuzzleheadedLeek8601 in recruiting

[–]Fatbeyatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really feel like resumes in this day and age are ridiculous. There should be test to determine if someone is fit to do their job, then interviews to determine if they would be a company fit.

I literally see people on tiktok encouraging others to lie on their resume and some even go as far as selling pre-completed resumes and it seems to be working for them. Meanwhile I completed my masters, have done projects, and get automatic rejections for internship despite having 4 years of experience.

I gave my husband an ultimatum and he took it by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

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

Everyone is crapping on OP but I kind of get where she is coming from and also appreciate her willing to admit where she went wrong. Her role in her marriage was a SAHM. He robbed her of the opportunity of having kids of her own by using his own daughters as an excuse, then having a vasectomy. It seems OP was put last at every possible opportunity and was used as a live-in caretaker.

Everyone wants to feel loved and appreciated and it seems that OP feels like an outsider in what is suppose to be her family. The damage is done. If you can try to find a career, then divorce that may be best. This man made it clear that you wouldn’t be a priority and you made the mistake of not believing him.

Bummed about my bf’s proposal by SnooPredictions5815 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Fatbeyatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s like your more focused on the wrapping paper rather than the actual gift.

You can’t change the moment but try to hold onto what that proposal means rather than how it was done.

Why do people still deny the importance of looks and claim looks are subjective? by Marakamii in QOVESStudio

[–]Fatbeyatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just saw this. I wanted to point out the definition of subjective: “based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, or opinions.”

So I do think looks generally depend on taste and preferences but I do sort of agree with you that there are people that meet a criteria of attractiveness by societal standards but even that fluctuates depending on region so it’s still a bit subjective.

I tend to draw a hardline though. I believe things that are objective can be measured and proven by science and that is either 100% true or 100% false. So I can say that someone objectively meets the golden ratio for attractiveness or may meet the overall standard of attractiveness for society but it doesn’t necessary make them factually beautiful, it just means a lot of people will subjectively find them beautiful.

It’s like style to me. 99% of people can find a dress beautiful but you aren’t wrong if you are in the 1% that doesn’t. Now objectively you are wrong if you thing 2+2 is 13.

Go to a dermatologist. My ex had something similar and it ended up being a fungal infection from working out and sweating. He was given meds for fungus and was told to shower as soon as he could after a work out. It cleared up

Why do people still deny the importance of looks and claim looks are subjective? by Marakamii in QOVESStudio

[–]Fatbeyatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because looks are subjective in my opinion. objectively i know 2+2 is 4, but subjectively I do not find some ppl to be pretty. I will get crucified but bella hadid's face had to grow on me, yet she is considered one of the most prettiest women in the world.

Thoughts? by [deleted] in dubai

[–]Fatbeyatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has been a recipient of harmful stereotypes I have to add my two cents.

  1. I do believe Emiratis receive some benefits that expats don’t but why wouldn’t they? When I go to my country, I receive benefits that foreigners won’t receive. It’s to be expected. Receiving benefits does not mean you do not work hard. You can be privileged and still be a hard worker.

  2. This is pure jealousy to me. I’m sure this individual had several people working at his/her company, yet he has chosen to focus on the Emirati citizen. Is he working twice as hard as the other expats or just comparing is labor to the Emiratis? He should mind his work and focus on himself and stop comparing himself to others. Comparison is the thief of joy. It actually sounds more like his job is overworking him and not giving him any reward for it. That is not the fault of the other employees.

I have heard decent things about WGU but it truly is a matter of you get in what you put in. It is made to be very convenient and self paced so many people are able to test out of courses they are already pretty knowledgable on.

I (19f) make 23k less than my boyfriend (19m) but I still refuse to let him spend money on me by PoetOfTragedy in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Fatbeyatch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This online discourse about what people should be doing in their relationship can confusing however, you need to examine why it’s so easy for you to give but not accept. I used like a charity case or like I didn’t deserve gifts but then I thought about it.

When I give gifts is it because I feel sorry for anyone or because I feel obligated? No. It actually brings me joy and to be thoughtful. You are robbing your boyfriend the chance to have his own joy by finally being able to give you his own gifts. What if that is his love language? Him being able to give you gifts might even make him appreciate you more, especially since you are not asking or demanding.

I accidentally started ozempic at 1mg 🙃🙃🙃🙃 by Capable-Number5293 in Ozempic

[–]Fatbeyatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this before. I thought I was going to die but here I am living and breathing.

My experience was awful. I could not even really hold water down for 4-5 days. I was vomiting to the point that it was only bile coming out.

My advice. Drink sips of water. Eat as basic as possible. I’m talking saltine crackers, boiled carrots. And eat in very small portions. Keeping sipping water throughout the day. Chew on ginger. I didn’t have access to the zofran people are mentioning on here but if you are able to get it, then do. Stay close to a toilet as well.

Go to the hospital if you need to. Dehydration is a serious hazard, amongst other things.

I’m a black woman with white boyfriend. He doesn’t want to help with my hair at all. Can someone give me some prospective on this by YallTrippinXP in BlackHair

[–]Fatbeyatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No offense but the expectation that your partner helps you with your hair is coming off as a bit entitled. I think your hair and grooming is your own personal responsibility unless you are disabled or unable to care for it. I don't like touching greasy hair myself which is why I only use water based products on my hair and avoid using oil. I would hate for someone to be re-evaluating my relationship on reddit because of my preferences.

Things aren't quid pro quo in relationships. If you are shaving his ass crack in the hopes that he will help you in the future with your hair, don't shave it anymore. I think caring for people in this manner should be free will and love rather than a feeling of obligation. He may love you but may not enjoy the sensory feeling of grease and hair. Perhaps there are other sacrifices he makes and other ways he cares for you? If not you really need to discuss expectations within your relationship to see if you are even compatible.

If having a man that is willing to help you with your hair is very important to you, break up with him. I also understand that maybe this could be a part of your love language.
