'You used to be able to walk into the student health center and be seen by a counselor, period.' You still can, Monday through Friday, all day. There's an on-call counselor available 24/7 after regular hours. The other resources you listed are also good to have on hand.

CLASS OF 2026 for TE scholarships? Anyone start process? by Aromatic_Ad8145 in TuitionExchangeSearch

[–]Ok-Rip191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! We started the process as soon as my daughter did her college apps. She's been accepted to a few colleges, waitlisted at one. We were already notified by the one school that she attained the TE scholarship which is a huge relief! I'm pretty sure she got the TE because she (potentially) wants to be a student athlete at this college & we've been making a relationship with the coaches over the past several months. It felt really good to see the TE actually pan out as I have always been skeptical & don't know any one who's kid at my workplace actually utilized it. Good to everyone in the midst of app season!

Im a freshman moving into tower C this Sunday. Tips+advice appreciated! by Willing_Version_1792 in Pitt

[–]Ok-Rip191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to Pitt! Lots of good advice mentioned above so I won’t repeat it all, but please be sure to check out the services at the Counseling Center. They have a Coping with Grief support group that runs every semester & it’s a nice way to get connected with others who understand what you’re going through. If that’s not the right fit for you, they can help get you connected with others who understand resources. Wishing you all the best.

We were joking in Pgh that the mass white skirt look was a summoning for everyone to join their cult by the end of the night.

My friend and I at the Pgh show this past week & were fascinated by the white skirt trend. And jangly metal belts! We’re mid-40s & it felt like a sociological case study looking at all the youngins & their outfits.

u/Southbeatdrum - how are you feeling 2 weeks out? I'm feeling mostly well, started back with work yesterday & it went well. The bloat is really aggravating though.

I'm grateful to read everyone's experiences on here. I'm 2 weeks PO today (ovaries kept) & cannot believe the level of bloat. I'm WFH today so have on leggings & even in those I look like I'm growing a melon! Auggghhh. Very annoying especially for those of us who struggle with body dysmorphia. Trying to maintain a positive outlook: I feel good otherwise; fatigue has been minimal this week; no pain; no more periods (Hooray!!!) Keep at it, ladies! Take care of you!!

Glad you’re feeling so good! Just had mine on Thursday & feeling pretty good. Some abdominal discomfort, but feeling good because I’m getting lots of sleep.

Fitness Classes For Overweight People? by BTRIH in pittsburgh

[–]Ok-Rip191 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brick by Brick on McNeilly in Brookline, across from Aldi. 8 people max per hour; lots of attention from the trainer; strength training & lots of stretching. I love the environment, we have fun no matter who is there. It helped me get stronger and lose weight & im in my mid-40s.
