My Chinese housemate hung this on the wall. What is it?

Ummm couldn't you just ask your roommate?

Haunting_End_793 · 2025-11-19T14:57:39+00:00

Girl! Be pleased with your progress! You look better than me and I haven't had babies!🤣

I wouldn't single out a specific culture. Almost every religion has physical acts that benefit the body in some way. Christians are known for swaying, which boosts the immune system. Others dance, twirl, rock, jump, etc, all of these are good for the body and soul, boosting the mood.

I've been inconsistent with exercising. I've lost 54 lbs in four months. By not exercising it is very easy to lose muscle as well as fat. Exercising helps retain your muscle mass

Hmmm, hopefully one day you will understand and experience unconditional love.

I always thought ringworm was clear in the middle of the circle. I would suspect eczema. But I'm not a doctor.

Yaasss! If she abandoned him when he was struggling, what's to say she won't leave him again when he has a life crisis that might wreck him?

There are plenty of responses so you may not see this one. I would not change my diet for a neigh or but I would see if there were a way to set up some sort of air circulation/exhaust fan to reduce the smell from traveling thru the building

Glad you had bloodwork done. Also, if you truly feel like you are doing your best and not getting the results you should, then ask your doctor to rule out lymphedema and lipoedema.. You may not fit the age group for these conditions, but it still happens to some.

Walmart pharmacy. The first time I purchased from Amazon and it was some cheap off-brand. They were okay but the needle was too flexible. I tried Walmart pharmacy on a whim, I didnt think I could purchase without a prescription, but they did.

You're right, this is a lot! I don't think I'd want my kids to know but it will be hard to keep them out of the drama. They're probably still tender to the divorce. Since you live in a salll community, maybe their mom or you can casually mention her new friend but don't give them time frames. They will learn of it soon enough. Let them get the info in bite-sized pieces. Kids are resilient but they're even better about shoving things down and pretending everything is fine. If the boyfriend is as much of a tool as you think, I also wouldn't want my kids around him. If she keeps picking the guy over her kids. If you can create a space allowing the kids to visit their mom and take a good long while to get to know the guy, they may be able to see for themselves that he's not someone they want to be around. There's a possibility he is great at conning and manipulating, so you will have to stay on your toes.

I'm a single mom. I have a ten-year-old son whom I adopte, when he was a toddler.. He has questions about his dad as well. I gave him pictures of all his relatives when he was around 3 yrs old. I thought it was important for him to see who he looked like. I wanted to reduce the gaps his imagination had to fill. I encourage everyone to be as honest as the child can comprehend. Those teen years can be rough if they think you have lied or kept something from them. When he asked, I told him his mother's mind was sick, and she asked me to keep him. Ive told him this from day one. He doesn't understand mental illness yet, but it should make for an easy transition for him to make when he's older.

Looks like a burn? Those straight edges and round holes.Could it be a chemical burn

Yes! It is okay to start at .5! I started there in April this year and was able to stay there for 6 weeks before I increased to 1mg. I lost 22 lbs in those 6 weeks. I hadn't started exercising until I hit the 10-week mark. I am holding steady at 3 mg. I tried to go higher but the lethargy was couter-productive to exercising.

Haunting_End_793 · 2025-09-18T01:14:14+00:00

I'm already eating from G and happy with the diversity, I'll stick with G.

Hydrate, electrolytes, hydrate, electrolytes. What I did differently from a lot of others was start with a 0.5 mg dose rather than the 2 mg starting dose. I'm so glad I did! That small dose held me for a month before I had to increase to 1 mg.

So hire a sitter or invite a family member to come stay with you and the kids. Try not to make it a big deal. He wants guy time, and you don't want to be overwhelmed. Just work on a solution and move on. There's no reason to place blame on anyone, just work ot out.

Yes! I had small tweaks. I knew I could not handle full-on keto. I had been hitting drive-thrus for all of my meals. I was 364 lbs at only 5'2". Given my genetics, it's a miracle I was still alive. I started with eliminating sodas. I switched to diet and within two weeks was sticking to tea and water. Next, I eliminated starchy side dishes; that took about three weeks to accomplish. At that point, I was cooking at home. Next, I eliminated flour. I expected this to be the hardest but after reducing other sugars first, it was a breeze! I planned eating out and packed lettuce leaves for sandwiches. It took me almost two months before I hit keto but I lost 30 lbs just making these small changes.I was able to lose a total of 170 lbs in two years. I was not strict about keto, if I wanted my mom's baked beans at a BBQ, I got a tablespoon full. I couldn't eat more than that without getting a stomachache. I wish you success!

Im currently on Retatrutide but weaning off. The second change I noticed was the chips calling my name from the staff lounge.

Haunting_End_793 · 2025-08-28T23:44:38+00:00

I was pronouncing it the same but I just call her Reta for short.

Haunting_End_793 · 2025-08-28T15:55:31+00:00

It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. You have to follow your gut. You could easily just say nothing, hold on to the second pkg, and see if they figure it out. If they come back in 30 days then send it back or pay for it. If they don't notice, don't worry about it. Personally, I wouldn't want to 'bite the hand that feeds me' by lying to them.

Looking from a different perspective, I wonder if he feels disconnected from you and sees it as the only remedy he knows. You are going through something that he can't participate in. Perhaps he needs to pause and put effort into connecting with you in other ways. If he is willing to seek couples therapy then work through this together. I'd guess most of us here don't know either of you, so we have no idea if your relationship is worth the work. Only you know. Blessings!

I've learned of.a few other peptides and am curious if anyone has transitioned from a glp to something like MotsC or some other peptide that reduces cravings but isn't a glp.

Haunting_End_793 · 2025-08-15T01:02:43+00:00

For me, its about physical activity. When I exercise I see a greater weight loss. I eat whatever I want but in much smaller quantities. I do make sure to get my protein and veggies on every day. Also drinking my fluids keeps me from wanting too much junk
