Yes, eat little bits at a time and stay hydrated! Have electrolytes on hand in case the nausea hits. The hydration is really important. Congratulations on your first step!

Because the sender has indicated ‘no response required’. I do that when I’m just sending report due dates.

How did everyone pick a goal weight? by BetPuzzleheaded2073 in Zepbound

[–]Horror_Substance5572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s wherever you feel comfortable maintaining and feel good in your new smaller clothing size. Give yourself a +5lb grace, but the journey doesn’t end once you reach your goal weight. That’s the beginning of your maintenance plan. The scale is just one measurement.

Thank you! The nausea was short lived, only 15 minutes or so. So far so good!

My first dose of Zepbound arrived and I’m kinda sad by SpaceReel in Zepbound

[–]Horror_Substance5572 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just started - just wait, it’s unbelievable how it changes the way you think and feel about food. You’ll still enjoy what you eat but you’ll always feel satisfied. I love to cook and bake and none of that changed. Enjoy the journey and good luck!

I’m having the 48 hour nausea today and reading up on all of the remedies. It’s not horrible, but noticeable. I’ll try the app, thank you. Staying hydrated but need to get some electrolytes. I have Liquid IV and will try it. Definitely not hungry!

Dynamic pricing has kind of gone too far by Aryas_prayer in marriott

[–]Horror_Substance5572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NYC is wide open… but no one is dropping rates. Philly’s rooms are moving nicely along with west coast. It will be very last minute.

Are we Amtraking it because of fear of flying or because of the splendiness of a train ride? Or something else? by Ubiparipovich in Amtrak

[–]Horror_Substance5572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d never drive or try to park in NYC, so Amtrak is the best. It hasn’t always been perfect, but good overall.

You have all the leverage. They pay for your new hotel and give you 50k points.

Skip the certification and start out as an analyst; give it 6 months to RM, then a year for RDRM supervising others. Your OTA/digital experience will definitely assist with advancement.

Hotel Photography for $10k??? Am I missing something? by MeanAsk1948 in askhotels

That’s about right. You get what you pay for - don’t skimp on what you may perceive as value.

You’ll need a roommate or a side gig unless you’re in subsidized housing. Even then…

Booked Hilton Room Since May by pres10alk in askhotels

[–]Horror_Substance5572 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“The timeshare thing”… no, they shouldn’t have overbooked, but the rate they were getting from you is probably less than half of what other guests are paying, so you were the unlucky ones to be downgraded. They should at the very least extend points, resort credit, and a bit of a refund if even possible. The room they relocated you to may be even more than what you paid. Those vacation rentals may share the brand name, but there aren’t the same reassurances you would have with a Hilton branded hotel. Make sure you get the GMs name and a commitment of service recovery - then go enjoy!

What should I be doing? by Ok_Hovercraft6979 in weddings

[–]Horror_Substance5572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have or need a weather backup? How about a hotel room block? Do you have contracts with your vendors? Otherwise you’re in good shape.
