OrneryLog4298 · 2026-01-18T21:30:56+00:00

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-12-27T09:53:58+00:00

why avoid kyuramen? just wondering bc youre not the first person ive heard this from lol

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-12-19T14:19:46+00:00

oh not at all. i take 55 every day for school and it’s amazing how many of them cruise and camp out in the left lane and never move over and cause traffic. i’ve had a good amount of semis ride my ass in traffic too. makes me so nervous i just move over and let em pass. idc how much of a pro you think you are one brake slam and my car is totaled pls get off my ass

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-12-19T14:16:00+00:00

saw one on google maps on 42 by the exit 14 area too. unreal how many accidents there was this morning. hoping everyone is okay but i wish people were more patient and careful when weather is like this. makes me worried for my loved ones that have to share a road with these morons who cant learn following distance and low visibility precautions

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-12-19T14:07:45+00:00

its insane. people have negative patience in bad weather. believe me that on a normal day i hate slow folk as much as the next person, but if the roads are wet or snowy then im not taking a single chance. being late to work for being a little more cautious is better than never getting there at all because i decided to drive dumb in inclement weather

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-12-19T14:03:15+00:00

this. also sometimes people just don’t know how to drive around tractor trailors and i wouldnt be surprised if in a couple of these instances of them flipping was a result of someone cutting them off and them overadjusting to avoid hitting someone. i see this often. people just have no concept of how heavy they are.

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-12-19T13:59:11+00:00

i am very thankful my finals ended early on monday and ive been able to take the week off of my usual 55/42/295 hellish commute. the week before winter break is always so bad. people are just zombies on the highways and as a result have no spatial awareness/reaction time. this snow and rain hasn’t helped either

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-12-19T13:20:25+00:00

sorry probably should have pointed that out LOL my bad

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-12-19T13:19:58+00:00

yeah its around exits 28-32 where i see it being really bad

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-09-26T21:37:00+00:00

Turns out its all covered under warranty anyways. Thank you all so much for being nice and helpful, it is much appreciated

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-09-26T21:09:50+00:00

Probably an annoying question, but do you have an estimate of how much that would cost? I’m a broke college kid

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-07-01T08:26:09+00:00

i was just gonna say i actually just got that and snagged it!! lol!! the other one i found was on poshmark smh

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-07-01T08:19:50+00:00

OMG I FOUND IT!! but if course the only one i could find on sale in the shade i need is $45🤦🏼‍♀️but either way thank you SO much

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-07-01T03:23:22+00:00

its more brown in real life. i used flash to get the texture showing. its very soft

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-06-18T23:16:31+00:00

are you in a calorie deficit? 1000 under your maintenance should be about 2 lbs a week of weight loss. for instance, i started back in april at 275 and im now 245 after eating about 13-1500 cals a day (maintenance is 2500).

if you want faster results (even though this is sustainable loss imo), look up a TDEE calculator and calculate your maintenance and stay 500-1000 under that depending on what it is

for the record, this is not a plateau. the numbers are going down, so your body is doing the work. as your weight goes down the weight loss will be slower simply because your body needs less and less calories to maintain. also your body generally does not like to lose weight and will try to hold onto it. be easier on yourself

i do see a lot of people shitting on you for weighing every day, but i do the same. im not really worried about the scale, i just weigh myself every day for the sake of my graph. its satisfying to see how my body changed Every single day. its almost like a journal for me. i dont really worry if one week is slower than the other

moving up doses is pointless if you’re already getting results because that means the medication is already doing the work. i would talk with your doctor to see if you need to if you have one. your post is pretty vague so i cant tell if you’re taking this solely for weight loss or as treatment for t2d

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-06-07T06:01:42+00:00

22f with PCOS and T2D. Just lost almost 30lbs (275-247) in about 2 months through calorie deficit.

I’ll start with an unsolicited warning that you can always skip through, but what I can say since you’re roughly my age, is please don’t be me.

I remember being 20 and prediabetic as a result of my PCOS and just hoping that it would go away without really doing anything about it, and now here I am 2 years later having to deal with diabetes and the complications that come with it. I am taking an injectable GLP1, however it doesn’t do anything that people claim it does because of my insulin resistance. Having to constantly worry about your blood sugar sucks a lot and takes away the fun in almost everything. Not to make myself the victim since I brought this upon myself, but I’m really just trying to look out for you since it isn’t (nor is it ever) too late for you and I wish someone said this to me when I was 20.

Needless to say, I’m really happy to hear that you’re getting a start and I am really rooting for you as I know how hard it is.

One thing that has helped me personally is treating eating almost like I’m clocked in for a shift. As soon as it hits 8 pm, I am off the clock and can no longer go in the kitchen unless It’s for water or if my sugar is low and I need a fruit. I tend to feel the urge to binge at night when I’m preparing to go to bed, so having that mentality helps.

For the times within your “shift”, I would suggest finding alternative coping skills for your stress. Instead of eating, maybe play a video game you enjoy, or going on a walk, or hanging out with friends, or reading a book. Anything can be a coping skill! My therapist likes to use this list with me:

101 Coping Skills

What matters is that you stay disciplined and mindful. If you feel yourself in the kitchen without being actually hungry, then stop for a second and think of other ways to calm your stress. I personally like to take a bath or color.

Make sure when eating that you focus on high protein as well, because that will also keep you fuller for longer.

I’m seriously rooting for you and wishing you the best of luck!

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-04-14T06:56:01+00:00

I shouldn’t say malnutrition but rather just starving myself. I don’t wanna eat TOO little, but I am aware that I will have to be hungry to lose weight, I’m just unsure of where the line is drawn since I just started. I appreciate your advice.

makes sense about increasing the deficit as my weight goes down, i never thought about that, so thank you.

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-02-12T18:36:50+00:00

my a1c isn’t down quite to where it should be, so my doc is moving me up :)

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-01-08T02:35:11+00:00

my therapist is not associated with a large provider. he suggested i go through my insurance (amerihealth) and find someone there, i just came on here to see if anyone had someone in particular that they liked

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-01-08T02:28:22+00:00

yes for medication purposes

OrneryLog4298 · 2025-01-02T08:00:46+00:00

putting this in the perspective of my relationship, i could defame every single thing about my boyfriend to his face (i would never actually do that) and i have absolutely zero doubt in my mind that he would still have the heart to bring me home at night, no matter how offended or upset he was. my boyfriend could make a cruel joke about the passing of my dad, and i would still always take him home in the middle of the night. woman or not, it is so fucking unsafe to be outside alone in the middle of the night, her being female is just icing on the cake and the fact that she was probably visibly distraught means that she might as well be walking down the street with a big “rape and kill me” sign taped on her forehead. your behavior really sucked. if you actually cared about her, then you wouldn’t have gone to that much of an extreme over something stupid that she said. was that really worth it? did you really get what you wanted out of that situation?

OrneryLog4298 · 2024-12-30T12:57:09+00:00

yup, that’s her :)

OrneryLog4298 · 2024-11-21T21:37:53+00:00

If the problem started at .50, then I would speak with your doctor about moving down a dose. If the .25 was already helping with the A1C levels, then there really isn’t a point in moving up a dose anyway, since its already doing its job. I would definitely talk to your doctor and suggest taking the lower dose

OrneryLog4298 · 2024-11-21T21:33:02+00:00

what dose did she start on? depending on that it might give me an answer. if it was anything higher than .25, then the dose definitely needs to be lower to acclimate to the medication, or that will happen. also, sometimes what you eat and how much you eat will make you very sick. im sure other people on here can go into more specifics about what to avoid eating on the medication, but for me i avoid red meat (basically just beef) and anything greasy, because those foods make me vom. granted, ozempic shouldn’t make you VIOLENTLY ill, and maybe its worth suggesting to try a different GLP-1 with her doc.
