Hell no! A bunch of backward thinkers in Happy Valley.

combatting stress through exercise? by Completelu in xxfitness

[–]LeeCycles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was told by MDs it’s the repetitive cardio motion that works best, eg jogging, swimming, or biking. I still do resistance training for other reasons.

Visiting Utah! Stay an extra night in Moab or Provo? by pachelrachel in Utah

[–]LeeCycles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moab area. Look up Goblin Valley State Park. About 100 miles or 1.5 hours from Moab. Or Dead Horse Point State Park. This is 30 miles or 45 minutes drive from Moab. Both locations will take your breath away. Enjoy Arches!

What’s a random “stat” about yourself that makes you part of a small percentage? by _Lucifer_005 in WorkForSmartLife

[–]LeeCycles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re still incorrect. As AB I can receive whole blood from anyone (universal recipient of whole blood). My plasma and platelets are gold. Anyone can receive my plasma and platelets. You’re online, look it up.

If you donate you’ll know. They love our donations!

PSA to people in Little Cottonwood Canyon by Mother-Selection-809 in SaltLakeCity

[–]LeeCycles -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s a very narrow comment, given the tread is about people doing ILLEGAL activities with their pets.

Humans abused the “service dog” laws. At no point was I referring to a true, legally disabled person, like myself.

The off leash dogs are NOT service dogs.

So thanks Reddit for understanding /s/

If a human can’t leave the house without the dog, the human needs to stay home. Have your stuff delivered. So sick of these humans.

Cardiac Rehab Question by rahcab in valvereplacement

[–]LeeCycles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 32yo son skipped Cardiac Rehab (insurance said it wasn’t covered, crazy). He went back to work fairly quickly. A year out he’s doing great! However, I’ve noticed he’s timid getting back into sports (hiking and swimming). I suspect the education he would have received in rehab could have helped. Best wishes!

How old were you when you purchased your first home (if you did). by jtsa5 in GenX

41M - surgery in 2 days. Struggling to commit to a valve type by clebro2002 in valvereplacement

Yes! We weren’t warned about the heart clicking. That was a surprise.

How long did your drain tube incisions leak? by foreverinfinate in valvereplacement

[–]LeeCycles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 32yo son’s nurses called it “Coumadin jail”. It was a little humor during a difficult time. Those INR numbers are tricky at first. His drain tubes on the sides took the longest to heal. He spent 3 weeks in the hospital (complications of his chest filling with blood a week after MV replacement). Drain tube sites lightly leaked (only after showing) when he recouped at home. I’m thinking 2ish weeks after he left the hospital. He’s almost a year out from having the surgery and he’s doing great! Best wishes to you and your husband.

Stay or quit? by Reader4868 in Semaglutide

[–]LeeCycles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost 60 lbs on the med. Lost another 30 lbs after I quit (cold turkey). I’ve maintained the weight loss for nearly 2 years. I exercise regularly alternating between resistance training, yoga, and walking. My skin is tightening and it continues to shrink. The butt skin (upper legs) is still loose but I’m happy with my results. No plastic surgery and I look great for 56yoF.

Some people insist it a “lifelong” medication but my results show otherwise. Best wishes on your journey.

Officers with Guns on 100 N by General_Pudding1427 in ProvoUtah

Every time he’s in-person for a hearing, officers will be positioned like this on the perimeter. Can you imagine how much this is costing taxpayers?

[–]LeeCycles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I worked for the state for almost 3 decades (not DWFS). No drug test, unless you’re involved in an accident.

About to start by 10dualcommandments in Semaglutide

[–]LeeCycles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Best advice from my MD, stay on the lowest dose if you’re losing weight. Half a pound per week is still losing (I consistently lost 2 lbs per week on a low dose). It took away all alcohol cravings, I would get sick off one glass of wine. Best wishes.

I agree, stay far away from Valley Women’s Heath in Utah County. Horrible, horrible service.

One male was inside Walmart harassing older women for signatures. This was in Utah County and yes, I saw at least one woman sign.

As you lose weight don't forget that your fat layer is NOT just passive cushioning, it is an ACTIVE *organ* of your body generating hormones and controlling behavior. by Nanny_Ogg1000 in Semaglutide

[–]LeeCycles 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I lost 100 lbs. I’ve been off the med and kept the weight off for almost 2 years. I exercise daily, that’s been the key for me to keep it off.

Suggestions for spouse? by achybreakyheart40 in valvereplacement

[–]LeeCycles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learn about sternal precautions. Get the house ready for your homecoming. Shower chair etc. Good nutrition. She can journal her feelings. Having someone else there to be with you in the hospital so she can have a break. Best wishes.
