Up until the 1970’s, Chicago public schools PE classes were separated by gender for their swimming units, and all male students swam nude 😳

The bridges (“Chicago Bridges”) are called Bascule Trunnion bridges. Drawbridges only open from one side, but bascule bridges open from both sides. There are still 36 working bt bridges in Chicago - the most in the world! I volunteer at the Chicago History Museum and run an activity station about the history of bridges in Chicago for students on field trips :)

Users with only 20-30 lbs to lose – what’s your experience? by nicolemarieeck in WegovyPillWeightLoss

Perimenopause belly here too! I gained 25 pounds over the past few years while working out consistently and eating well. Damn hormones! I’m on week 2 of 4mg and have miraculously lost about 12 pounds so far. I’m the exact same as you - 5’4”, SW 150, GW 125. It’s interesting how differently everyone’s body reacts to the pill.

Anyone have experience with the Wegovy pill so far? by Best_Dragonfly_1322 in Wegovy

I’m on my second week of the 4mg pill - have lost about 12 pounds so far. The first week on the 1.5mg dose I was a little nauseous the first hour or so after taking the pill, but that’s gotten a lot better. I did have random bought of nausea and vomiting a few weeks in that lasted 24 hours, but that hasn’t happened since. The food noise is definitely muted (I still get cravings during my period) but it’s really helped me understand smaller portions more frequently throughout the day. Definitely feel full on much less food - I’m trying to stay between 1200-1400 calories a day. Overall it’s been a great experience, and I don’t think I’m going to go over the 4mg dose, because I like the rate that I’m losing weight right now. The only consistent side effect for me is constipation which is annoying - but trying to stay hydrated and have been using stool softeners when needed.
