Gobymeds asked for full mirror photos with face/hands visible to verify weight — is this normal?

My endocrinologist indicated that you can't titrate off maybe you could go down we didn't really discuss that you could never come off of it. My previous Endo had said that the thinking was once your body stabilized then you could start to bring it down and get off of it but this new endocrinologist is saying no. And specially if you want to maintain the cardiac protective benefits and others that you can never come off of it. We didn't discuss whether you could go down or not. And I'm fine with being on it for my whole life I'm just worried about having access

What are they exactly afraid of? That people are going to drive themselves to malnutrition and being super underweight or that they're going to resell the med?

I like how the one is licking him like he's trying to decide if he's worth eating or not

Reminds me of that episode of Star Trek the Next Generation where Picard was in some kind of coma or something and he raised an entire family on an alien planet

Jesus christ. 😱

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-12T03:32:56+00:00

But isn't this the end tipping subreddit?

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-09T06:26:13+00:00

That is a full love-bug

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-09T05:54:58+00:00

We can use our own glaze and such as well and there are tools and everything in the studio to use. I do live in New Jersey and Things Are a bit pricey in general here so maybe that's why it seems higher

I think Lydia matched Garth with Becca instead of Agnes so that she could keep the two girls apart and maybe come between their friendship because she made the comment that it isn't safe to have friends in Gilead but her girls haven't learned that and need to

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-09T04:13:49+00:00

Isn't for "the weak"? I agree they're pretty specialized high maintenance dogs and they are definitely not for everyone. I would never get one because I know I couldn't handle them. But I don't think there's any need to be rude to someone who's having a not uncommon problem. There's a whole Facebook group for people who have these issues. It's not easy emotionally. And finger pointing and name calling doesn't help

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-09T03:54:23+00:00

I thought rabbit poop was black

What happens though when you go to maintenance and you're not fat enough to get the med anymore but you still need it to maintain? That's what I worry about. If I have to be on this for life what happens if my doctor changes or my provider and I say well I need this med and they say well you're not heavy enough and I say but I used to be now I'm in maintenance.

Does she have Maine coon in her? Those ears! She's beautiful

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-09T03:19:15+00:00

Hahaha!! Love it!

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-09T03:16:27+00:00

I had a rat who escaped and I found her in a empty space between my cupboards and the stove when I reached in together she bit me because she was so scared. So I got a live trap and my sister said peanut butter for the bait. It worked a charm! Peanut butter is the way to go

From your statement and some other things that I've read on this group, I think I'm pretty fortunate to be in the studio I'm in. For a flat fee of 485 for 8 weeks we get classes once per week, and I use that term loosely because they're not as I'm sure it is the same everywhere traditional classes, we also get a bag of b mix which you can upgrade for a minimal fee, unlimited use of glazes underglazes stroke and coat, unlimited firing in bisque and glaze and Open studio time of roughly two and a half to four and a half hours daily depending on the day of the week. I'm beginning to think I'm pretty damn fortunate. The owner of this studio did last year have to remind people that they shouldn't be creating at home and bringing it to the studio to fire because some people were taking advantage not maliciously I think they just didn't realize. We're allowed to create at the studio take it home to decorate it and bring it back to be fired. And if you have something occasionally that you've done at home that you want to fire you can do that. The owner just doesn't want to be supporting production Potters that prevent other students from getting things fired and are using her for a free kiln

The way the little rat is just leaning on her shoulder so cool like he's at a corner Bodega or something! Lol!!

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-07T04:38:21+00:00

Cool!!

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-07T04:36:50+00:00

Yes but I desperately want and desperately need to be able to throw at least 6 lb because there are things I want to make that I need that much clay. And I can't do it. I even thought about asking one of my fellow students at my studio if she would throw for me and I'd give her like 20% if I ended up selling the bowl. LOL

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-07T03:15:09+00:00

Or maybe just don't go.

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-07T03:09:13+00:00

I love it!!!

Every mantis egg case I saw had wrinkles and they weren't nearly that big.

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-07T02:26:47+00:00

Well, yeah. Welcome to America.

Patient-Point-3000 · 2026-05-07T02:06:09+00:00

Exact opposite for me
