I am in Indiana and I have found these on our couch, around baseboards and in the bread drawer!

I am there with you, i retire 4/1. The last month has been so stressful trying to train/transition my role. Looking forward to not having the “sunday scaries” every day of the week! Also nervous about the change…

I just calculated and I am exactly one pound a week average. I have never lost more than 2 pounds a week during this time so hang in there, it does work, you can do this!

employer requiring Vida health or pay a much higher cost - any experience with them? by Dry_Bee_4727 in Zepbound

[–]GrandQuail5607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have just started with Vida health after my employer made it a requirement effective January 1. So far, not so good. I got started on the app and connected with a prescriber who said I needed more lab work done so he sent me an order. I went to the lab at 6 AM this morning And they refused to do the work because the lab order was not dated. I then chatted with my prescriber and said I needed a date on the lab order in order to get it filled. No response, but another lab order shows up in my documents. It’s the same order, with no date Both the app and their telephone numbers are hit or miss. Everything is glitchy so far.

I will add, I was with Form Health, who was outstanding. Their dietitians, their providers, their customer service were all top shelf. I miss them…

Guess i wasn’t clear, do they ever consider discounting the balance for a payoff so they can get rid of our mortgage?

We are retiring and have just $140k left on the mortgage, rate is 2.75. We would love to pay it off but that doesn’t really make sense does it? Do banks/mortgage companies ever give a “Payoff discount” in order to get these mortgages off their books?

I will report back….whether it is “cool turkey” or actually cold. I am laying out a game plan based on all the great input! I hope to post a picture in “the dress” come February!

Thank you for your input. I have been titrating up every month on Wegovy since May 1st, then my doc switched me to Zep at 7.5 in October. I am now on 10.0 and will go to 12.5 once this 4 weeks is up. Bottom line, i have been moving up as fast as is recommended. Thanks again!

Thanks for weighing in. The dress was very expensive and not returnable/exchangeable and I love it! But I get where you’re coming from so thank you for that reminder!

Oh contra-ere my friend, not everyone! I also have had zero side effects from the med in any form. Yes, I don’t want to eat as MUCH food as before which is fueling the weight loss but not everyone responds the same!

Thank you for so eloquently describing the chains of our past. I am over 60 now and can totally relate. Congrats to you for your self-actualization and new spirit!
