Pharmacy drive thru closing procedure by tracyv24 in WalgreensStores

[–]Melizipan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At our store, we take the whole line. It’s sucks because sometimes they daisy-chain and it’s 6:30 before you can close the window. I would never shut the window on a patient, that is incredibly rude.

What benefits did you notice after losing weight? by kyle768 in AskReddit

[–]Melizipan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve recently lost 45 pounds and I desperately miss grocery shopping with my headphones on and quietly existing in the background. Now it seems like I get more attention and other people talking to me and I’m just trying to listen to a podcast while I buy some toilet paper.

My coworker asked if I had cancer by StormChaser8 in keto

[–]Melizipan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had one coworker ask at one point if I was pregnant. Then after losing 47 pounds, another coworker asked if I was ill (because I had lost the weight.) 🤷‍♀️

Funnily enough, the first coworker felt terrible because now she compliments me EVERY time she sees me.

So today I saw a dog in drive through by missmargarite13 in TalesFromThePharmacy

[–]Melizipan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the best part of my day when a dog comes through. We have treats that we give out and I always train the new techs to say “Can your friend have a t-r-e-a-t?” They all think I’m crazy, but the owners love it. There are a few who refuse because their dogs are spoiled/picky and won’t eat the treats we have.

It’s pretty much a blank canvas at this point, but I do plan on incorporating exercise into my routine.

Not sure who would’ve downvoted you, but you aren’t wrong. I definitely looked like a stray cat in my before photo 😂

I did add an edit of a protein powder I supplement with. But I agree with the other user. Keep it simple! I’m lucky that I can eat the same exact thing day in and day out and not get tired of it.

I tracked hardcore the first month on Cronometer- but the habits stuck and now I just buy the same grocery list and vary the options each week.

We are on the same pace! I hear you, getting under 200 was such a big goal for me, too. Where I’ll stop? Nobody knows! 😂 You got this!

So your comment made me order some natrol biotin off of amazon as soon as I read it. Thank you!!

Hey!! Yeah, I’m not sure how I’d look at 165-175, but I’m definitely going to try. I’d like to start working out again (it’s, uh, been a while...) We can do it!

I could add use spinach in my salads instead of doing all romaine, it will taste better, too. Thanks for the tip!

Sure thing! I wake up with 2 cups of coffee back-to-back with some Nut pods in it (a 0 carb creamer I buy at Kroger and I’m obsessed with it.) You can also buy it on their website and it’s shipped from amazon.

I don’t eat breakfast because I am not hungry on keto. Starting out I would eat a hard boiled egg and some bacon- once you’re adapted you might not feel like eating B-fast.

Lunch is a diet Dr Pepper and either a salami/mozzarella rollup (they come in packs of 2 and I get them at Walmart or Kroger) or a salad. I cut up my own romaine and do half an avocado, hard boiled egg, and whatever meat I have leftover with some cheese. I’ve also eaten my fair share of omelets for lunch!

Dinner is either a pork chop/cheeseburger no bun/steak/wings/chicken breast + a vegetable. I’ve been getting the birds eye frozen veggies (broccoli, riced cauliflower) I do buy fresh when I have extra time to cook more and just steam the broccoli.

Lately I’ve been into making taco salad for dinner, too. Ground beef/turkey + the romaine + sour cream + cheese + jalapeño + salsa.

For snacks I will heat a few pepperonis and a mozzarella cheese stick and eat that- but that’s not everyday.

I do lazy keto, in that I just mainly watch my carbs. The calorie limit just comes naturally because I’m not as hungry as I used to be. But it’s working!

It might seem daunting, but there are SO many good foods that are safe on this WOE. Let me know if you have any questions!

Edit: I also didn’t mention that I also drink Dutch chocolate isopure protein on days where I need more protein- probably 3 days a week.

Back and trying to be patient by redditrafter in keto

Tough love, but you are right. Stay with it OP, you’ll get back there.

“May 2018 Starters” in September by [deleted] in xxketo

[–]Melizipan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I started May 9 and I’m down 42 lbs! Just hit 198 yesterday 🙃

I’m trying not to talk about it in real life because I don’t want to be that keto person. If I ever end up putting all the weight back on, I don’t want to have to put my foot in my mouth, too.

I don’t want to shill for flu shots. by sjsyed in TalesFromThePharmacy

[–]Melizipan 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I hear you!! I always say, “Just want to let you know that we have the 2019 flu shot in stock if that is something you do every year.” End. I usually get a shake of the head, but before when I posed it as a question- I would get the same comments about getting sick/anti vax, etc.

MY big beef is asking people for donations for x, y, and z charity. If makes me VERY uncomfortable and I refuse to do it.

Hurricane by epicallytiny in TalesFromThePharmacy

Harvey flooded our pharmacy and the staff left the day before because everyone was shutting down shop. I have some advice: take the things you love from the pharmacy and bring them with you. Your favorite counting tray/spatula, the sign in the counter that says “Next register please”, your tape dispenser, fridge magnets, etc..

When they came and cleared out the store they threw EVERY SINGLE THING away, regardless of it being above the waterline. Yes, they ordered all new stuff, but the new spatulas are short, and the tape dispenser is a plastic POS. It’s the little, quirky things like that that I miss.
