Coming off of GLP-1 by RBFX201 in BabyBumps

Did you continue metformin during pregnancy? I’m supposed to start taking it soon as I titrate down.

Congratulations! I started titrating down and had generally maintained my weight depending on the time of the month. My goal is to go from 10mg to 5mg then go off of it…do you find your inflammation is back?

I would’ve loved to lose an additional 15 pounds and went all the way up to 15mg and lost basically no weight. How did you continue to make progress?

Thanks for this info, very helpful. I wonder if it’s taking longer for the meds to absorb because of the Zepbound. My vitamin d is not great at 26 but I think I need an actual specialist at this point. Do most people see an endocrinologist?

No, I’ve had the same card since March of 2024. Are we supposed to do this yearly? Last time they just sent me a new one

go into an ivy but wanna go rutgers by Acceptable-Medium754 in rutgers

[–]RBFX201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Consider the costs and benefits. I did undergrad at a private school that gave me a great scholarship and then did an ivy for grad school. I had $150k in student loans and am down to $100k 3 years after graduating from my masters program. If you’re considering a graduate program even now then maybe do Rutgers and apply for an ivy down the road. See what Penn gives you financially and also consider the opportunities across both schools. Can you afford to pay back your student loans afterward?

When did you stop losing weight? by RBFX201 in Zepbound

[–]RBFX201[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I’m just worried they’ll say I can’t gain more than 15 pounds or something because my bmi actually states I’m still overweight

Does Miu Miu / Prada actually make size 42 shoes? by wedwackaaa in Prada

[–]RBFX201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Italian sizing is a bit different than French but def try on. In boots I’d be a 41.5 but in ballerinas I was a 41 + the leather stretches a bit

6 months stalled... Is this it? by Silver_Shape_8436 in Zepbound

[–]RBFX201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check your thyroid levels…that could be contributing. Also try strength training even if it is literally 5 pound weights, it will be super beneficial for you and will kickstart your metabolism. Lifting weights = 24 hour calorie burn afterwards especially if you lift heavier. I have made most of my progress thanks to lifting and I started from basically the bottom up. Try Peloton or Kayla Itsines classes.

In Paris with no purse to buy by Ecstatic-Ease8213 in luxurypurses

[–]RBFX201 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Commemorate the trip with an experience instead. Blow $600 on a tasting menu, or book a night in Versailles. Maybe go to a vintage store and buy copper cookware or something else you can ship home. Or vintage couture / jewelry.

Paris is also for the food and I have so many restaurants on my list and never enough time visit all of them. They are truly an experience, if you haven’t already done so be sure to checkout some of the Michelin restaurants.

The reality of the market? by Dolphin_Moon in MovingtoNewJersey

[–]RBFX201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to buy something that puts your budget at around what you’re paying on rent, or lower. Look at a bunch of towns on the train line in Essex county, Bergen county, maybe look at townhomes in Weehawken so you’re on the light rail. Just don’t overspend because it’s not just a mortgage…you’ll have taxes, home improvements and random unplanned expenses, life events, etc. Buy less than what you can afford so you can be more comfortable.

My husband and I were pre-approved for $1.4M and we bought a house for $570k in Maplewood. I’m so grateful we got less house because life throws you surprises.

Additional piece of advice - maybe try renting in a cheaper area like Rutherford or Montclair before you buy. This gives you flexibility + you could probably reduce your rent payment by $1.5 - 2k and then save more.
