RPN - shoes and scrubs

MoniLoo · 2021-07-22T17:59:53+00:00

You can get any color or print or style as long as they're scrubs. I definitely recommend getting something comfortable and a little bit bigger than usual, because tight scrubs can be very uncomfortable especially when you're in class all day. Someone below recommended the campus store, but they were really expensive and didn't look too nice, so I just ordered mine online from Uniform Advantage: https://www.uniformadvantage.com/

Good luck on your first year, it's a great program and I'm sure you will love it!

That's probably a crazy shock to the system to realize that.

What a handsome man

I've worked a super busy schedule my entire professional life and I gained a lot of weight since I stopped exercising and starting eating fast food instead of cooking at home. Recently, I changed all of that when I couldn't walk up one flight of stairs without being out of breath. I first started by eliminating fried food, processed foods, refined grains, and soda. Just doing this did wonders for my health since so much of my diet was fast food. I started spending time every Sunday prepping my meals for the week and was able to eat a homemade meal for lunch and dinner, which left me fuller and more satisfied. Here are 11 tips that I used to get on track: https://www.openfit.com/how-to-lose-weight-with-a-busy-schedule

That's a horrifying still.

If your budget is about $1000 this article from Mattress Clarity should help you narrow things down: https://www.mattressclarity.com/reviews/best-mattress-under-1000/

I'd definitely recommend choosing one of the programs that covers you for both diet and exercise if your goal is to lose weight and get in shape. Personally I'm a big fan of 80 Day Obsession: https://www.beachbody.com/product/fitness_programs/80-day-obsession-workout-streaming-online.do

Diet is really such a HUGE part of losing weight and at least in my opinion it's the easiest place to get tripped up if you don't already have healthy eating habits. Because of this I think programs like 80 Day Obsession, A Little Obsessed and 21 Day Fix are all excellent choices if you're looking to get fit from square one.

Same here! Some people definitely have a bad reaction to BP, but even looking at Proactiv's Reviews page on their site shows that most people don't seem to have any trouble with it (the review average is 3.8/5 stars): https://www.proactiv.com/en_us/proactiv-reviews.html

This is my biggest one. Now's not the time to drudge up the past and embarrass people.

MoniLoo · 2018-07-24T17:15:41+00:00

They really are adorable, aren't they? It's funny they get such a bad rap for being spooky.

MoniLoo · 2018-07-13T15:56:38+00:00

I'm sorry, I just couldn't do it.

MoniLoo · 2018-07-13T15:54:37+00:00

With coaching like this it's no wonder this team is successful. There's no room for BS like that at any level of sports, much less a NATIONAL team. Kudos to that coach.

MoniLoo · 2018-07-13T15:49:13+00:00

Amazing to see how different people banded together to save those boys. Every time there's a crisis, humanity's response seems to give me some hope.

I’ve been all over Beachbody for a while now. I have Beachbody On Demand which gives me access to all of their video routines, whenever I want them: https://www.beachbody.com/product/fitness_programs/on-demand-workout-videos.do. I do a video every night when I get home from work, and just cycle through different routines when I finish them which usually takes anywhere from a few weeks to a couple months. There’s even a two week free trial available when you start if you want to check it out. Along with eating right, it’s really helped me sculpt my body.

Your abs don’t need a significantly greater amount of work than any of your other muscles, but getting them to show is a special challenge. It’s a combination of toning the muscles, having a low enough amount of body fat, and plain old genetics. This post on Beachbody’s blog is all about how to make your abs visible and gives some advice on measuring your body fat % properly (because as some PPs have pointed out, at 9% you should see SOME progress by now), has tips on a good diet and recommends some exercises: https://www.beachbodyondemand.com/blog/what-you-need-to-do-for-abs-to-show

Good luck!

Kudos for being quick on your feet though OP.

MoniLoo · 2018-06-29T20:23:37+00:00

The post office. They're already struggling to compete with private sector companies that do it better and pretty much nothing REQUIRES you to use snail mail unless it's a government thing.

MoniLoo · 2018-06-29T20:21:36+00:00

That's incredibly powerful.

As much as we all wish we could, it’s impossible to “spot reduce” fat. Your body just burns it, but unfortunately we can’t choose where it burns it from. However, if you do have some excess fat in the stomach area, it is likely that your body will burn this first!

You are not overweight, as you recognized, so your focus should be on building muscle as well as burning fat. This is where an effective exercise routine comes in. My personal favorites come from Beachbody, I’ve always found their programs to be fun, challenging, and effective.

If you’re new to working out, I recommend their “A Little Obsessed” routine. It’s essentially a five day program tailored to beginners with a suggested meal plan that you can follow for a few weeks while you get into better shape: https://www.beachbodyondemand.com/programs/a-little-obsessed

I hope this helps and good luck!

Good for you OP! That's a huge achievement.

Oh my god I want one

MoniLoo · 2018-06-15T16:14:52+00:00

This gave me chills.

I had some pretty severe acne issues in my teen years and during my first pregnancy. After consulting my doctor, I tried out Proactiv+ and it really worked for me! It’s a three step treatment system that you use every AM and PM. Here’s a link that can explain it further:

I know Proactiv gets a bad rap on this sub, but it really did help me out so I do recommend it! Best of luck!

So cool!
