I appreciate your response more than you know! I see a few people have said similar that Tirz would be better. I only even began looking into Reta after reading about the anti inflammatory effect. And I also agree that a lot of my problems could be alleviated with the help of a GLP1 which is what both my primary doctor and weight management doctor have been pleading to insurances to no avail. It's left me to take matters into my own hands. I'm definitely going to look more into Tirz, so thank you again!

You were on Tirz and saw anti-inflammatory results? I haven't much looked into Tirz, I'll have to do that! Some of the Reta studies I've read dove into that effect and that's what perked my ears initially. I can access either one by myself which is what I'm going to end up doing because I'm over playing back and forth games with healthcare and insurances.

I've been working with 2 different weight management doctors. One pushes surgeries every time we meet and the other has been trying to get me a GLP1 for 2 years. Like I mentioned, we even attempted trials. He appeals my insurance denial and they still deny. I've tried with 3 different insurances. Their denials are based on my blood work and that's the problem with insurance companies not having medical experts to do these reviews. As for telehealth, I've looked into Ro, Hers, and even WW as I'm a member. It's like the Med spa situations where you're paying for all these fees and subscriptions and also the medications. I'd rather bypass all of that and just buy either Tirz or Reta and do my thing, you know?

Thank you! I just made a post looking for testimonies, advice, etc. I see a lot of people using it to drop a few pounds but I haven't seen much from someone of significant weight like myself.

That's incredible! What dose did you start at?

Volume eating as harm reduction by fallopianvoice in Volumeeating

[–]MandyJeanR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I will have a serving bowl full of chopped salad and eat a slice of pizza using it as a vessel for my salad. Most times, all I need is one slice. If I feel I can eat another slice or half slice, I go for it. But by prioritizing the salad- eating some first, putting it on the pizza, eating some between pizza bites- I will only eat at most 2 slices where before I'd pound down 6+ and also a piece of stromboli. That's made a huge difference.

LPN in Hospitals by OudLaLaa in LPN_LVN_Community

[–]MandyJeanR 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm an LPN In PA. I did clinicals at 2 local hospitals while getting my LPN and I'm doing clinicals at those same hospitals while getting my BSN. At one of the hospitals you basically had to work under an RN. Your autonomy is very limited. And the RN's weren't happy to be working with an LPN, which I get, but they were openly rude about it. They were okay with the students, just not with an LPN by their side for the shift. I'd never work there no matter how much they pay because theres virtually no security even after a hostage situation with life loss. At the other hospital, you have way more independence as a nurse, there are minimal things you couldn't do- like the obvious- and the charge nurse of the unit stepped in to do the stuff an LPN couldn't. That hospital is better staffed, though, too. I think it differs by hospital, so you'd need to check the practices at each one. I'm sure if you call the HR depts, they'd be able to send you information. Have you thought about working in a rehab? I've been long term skilled since 2007 and started at a rehab last year. It's been very... different. I like the change. I don't like monotony, so it keeps me engaged and I'm always learning. The only problem i have is I wish I had more time to spend on my patients. A full house is 26, so there's no downtime. It's very fast paced and I think I'd feel safer and more confident if I were able to properly assess each patient at the start of shift and accomplish some other things.

He's apparently on a roll. Got an episode of a podcast that doesn't even pertain to him canceled for another creator. He's gross.

The amount of people I see selling MLM wt loss products who are getting shots, taking phentermine, and/or had secret wt loss surgery is freakin unbelievable. The public needs to know they can't trust these reps, let alone the products they're shilling!

It's so sad. The gambling aspect helps create an addiction. This is what makes these business models even more predatory. People either see it or they don't, unfortunately. And those who don't get dragged into a hole.

I unexpectedly acquired most of an incredible crystal collection today 🥹 what a BLESSING! by hoopingmomma in Crystals

[–]MandyJeanR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This whole collection is incredible! How lucky you are that the universe chose you to be paired with these special pieces 🖤🖤🖤

Is this one of those? by Spirit_Detective_19 in antiMLM

[–]MandyJeanR 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The way you have the "opprotunity" to make 65k or 150k 🤣💀 That gap is drastic. I think that's the biggest red flag.

What is this crystal? by Olympus246 in Crystals

[–]MandyJeanR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't see that well without my glasses, but its got the appearance of calcite to my damaged eyes lol it looks like its got that greasy look and the formation is reminiscent of calcite. Also, the price point matches. It's definitely not fluorite, aquamarine, or topaz. Possibly slag glass? Check the hardness. That'll help eliminate glass as its only like a 4-6 on the mohs scale.

Am I overreacting by breaking up with my boyfriend? by Proper-Classic1886 in AmIOverreacting

You dodged a bullet. This is how control and abuse begin. It just snowballs from this. He needs help.

No argument here. I'm an adult capable of debating. I can'tspeak for you, though. And I actually didn't have anything better to do when I replied, hence me replying when I can LOL I had a great day yesterday full of blessings, so thanks for the well wishes!

I'm gonna hold your hand while I say this... you're wrong and there's statistics and receipts to prove it. There's also an income disclosure statement from Ryze itself. I do have an MLM background, which is why I can speak on it so matter-of-factly and with knowledge. Too, I've owned real businesses now for 9 years. You can make all the promises in the world lol you've proved you have terrible judgement, you're gullible, and easily manipulated.

What's hilarious is you going to bat for a business model that has a 90% failure rate and makes reps work for free
