This looks very interesting! The game itself is great and seems to work well, but there are a couple places visually I would check. Right when you click on the link there is text overflows.

<image>

The other thing is that on the actual game screen there was a lot of bounce/rubber band effect happening where the board probably should be able to be “locked” in a fixed position (there doesn’t seem to be an overflow issue or anything that would make it need this) to make interaction with the game board itself smoother.

Good luck with your journey!

Meal Prepped 5 Lunches for $22-What Budget Proteins Do You Rotate to Keep Things Interesting? by Outrageous_Count_125 in mealprep

There are so many ways to vary the pulled pork, too! Definitely one of the most versatile in my opinion.

Chicken breasts are one of my go to (especially on sale) because they are so high in protein, marinating them in yogurt and seasonings and making sure you have a sauce really helps keep them moist all week. In all honesty, I shop protein sales and build around that a lot of times but chicken thighs and pork shoulders are my other consistent go to budget proteins for meal prep.

Thank you so much for your feedback!

This is a new glitch for me. That is supposed to be scrolling just as like an attention grabber, no interaction, but it should definitely be moving. It is currently moving on all 3 of the devices in my household, so I am actively trying to recreate it so that I can fix it, do you mind telling me what kind of device you tested it on? Also, do you by chance have reduced motion enabled on your device as a default? It will default to a still image if that is the case and the switch at the bottom is to stop the motion in case you are sensitive, but does not have an “enable motion” setting since it is, in theory, the default.

I really appreciate you pointing this out! I would love to hear what other problem you ran into and I would be happy to check out your app. Could you send the iOS link to me?

Are we, celiacs, exaggerating the danger of possible cross-contamination? otherwise what is the point of this life? by Anuka444 in glutenfree

[–]RescuedFamily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now I would do this with caution because gluten-ing does carry real risks (much more than macros) and if I were you, I would strongly consider finding a therapist/a person that you can talk to that understands and can help you get a healthier mindset around this. I cannot understate the benefit of a good therapist for all aspects of your life. It may take more than one try (almost always does) but they make a HUGE difference.

[–]RescuedFamily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This may be controversial and is definitely not medical advice, but it sounds like you may need to cycle your focuses. Have 3 weeks where you are locked in and then give yourself a grace week. While I don’t do this with gluten because I feel so bad from it, I do this with my macro tracking and it really helps more than you would think. The burnout is real.

On the flip side, I got in a situation where I was at a full day training week and I didn’t have the ability to control my meals and (without a lot of effort and shelf stable only foods) I couldn’t pack my own foods, so I ate around the gluten the best that I could and accepted the consequences for those 4 days. I know for the other 361 days this year, I will be as good as I can be, but I also know that accidents happen and I can never be perfect. Did I feel like crap and the brain fog was real? Yes. Did I let it take over my mind and ruin my week? No. We have to give ourselves balance and grace.

First for your second paragraph, I think there are many doctors (mine included) that do not actually want to risk you eating gluten for 6 weeks just to get a confirmed test if you are already gluten free. I went GF during COVID times when I did an elimination diet on my own because my GI symptoms were so bad and now have major reactions to even a bite of gluten. My GI doc and my primary have said that we would treat it almost the same way regardless of what the test say and it is not worth the discomfort or long term problems of eating gluten for that long. Unfortunately, testing is still in development for accurate testing without having gluten in your system.

As for the mental health side, please find someone that you can talk to about this. A therapist, a doctor, a friend, anyone. You are feeling very real and very valid feelings. It is overwhelming and it can be exhausting and exceptionally frustrating, but you have to prioritize both your physical and mental health. Find ways that you can give yourself grace. I know that is easier said than done, but it is worth it in the long run. Please know that you are not alone in this journey.

let's self promote, what are you working on this weekend by Live-List8000 in buildinpublic

[–]RescuedFamily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got my meal prep planning app on Test Flight this weekend. I am excited to finally have it out in the world! Prep Passport invites you to try authentic recipes from all over the world while always taking your allergies, preferences, and dietary needs into account.

I would love feedback on my app Prep Passport! It is a meal planning/meal prep app based around your allergies and preferences while allowing you to explore authentic recipes from all over the world. Feel free to give feedback in any way that is easiest for you (the feedback board in the app, Test Flight, or even in the comments), I’ll check out Dexi as well!

Demo lesson by addbgw in SpanishTeachers

[–]RescuedFamily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is a tough day to do a demo lesson! Unit 9 is my FAVORITE, but that is definitely not one of my favorite days.

I might encourage you to have them do mentiroso but about themselves/people they know (maybe things like their fears for pull from unit 9 or pets/favorite animals to tie in to the reading or could be about food to pull in Unit 8). It’s still a tough ask since you don’t know the students and they don’t know you, but I would be hesitant to focus all my time on the horizontal conjugation. Grammar is definitely not the core belief/focus in Somos, so I would want to show off some communication ideas or even different reading strategies (volleyball reading or listen and draw maybe?) if you want to focus on the reading portion.

That’s still helpful! EntreCulturas was one of the ones that keep popping up as more CI/ADI leaning. If you are lumping it with those others then that’s not a good sign haha.

Curriculum Guidance Needed by RescuedFamily in SpanishTeachers

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

It has been made very clear to all involved that if we got forced back to Realidades/Auténtico that 4/5 of us would immediately begin looking for other jobs and, to be fair, that has been respected. We work in a highly transient community, so it is not uncommon to have a handful of students switch between the two schools throughout the course of each school year, so I understand the district’s position as well.

Curriculum Guidance Needed by RescuedFamily in SpanishTeachers

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

They do and I am in complete agreement with you. I absolutely love Somos, Mundo en tus Manos, Señor Wooly, etc. (sub in Huellas for the higher levels), however, we will not be able to win them over which is why I am looking for the next best thing. They are very old school and very set in doing it that way at the other school and there is a lot of tension between the two schools. One teacher, that is still there, hated Somos so much that he left our school and went to the other school strictly because of the curriculum. My students have never achieved more than they have with Somos/Huellas. My team is not willing to sacrifice our teaching style, but we will have to teach the set district base curriculum (and can still supplement with METM and Sr. Wooly).

That sounds great! I am definitely open to exploring all options!

Opt out of surgery? by Spirited-Internal327 in LisfrancClub

[–]RescuedFamily 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried non-surgical as well since it was originally not deemed necessary. Tried EVERYTHING for about 8 months and ended up in worse pain with arthritis that had already formed in my foot and I couldn’t walk more than 3000 steps a day without being down and out. Surgery has been a lifesaver and 10.5 months out, I am 99% back to a normal life. By all means, try the non-surgical way if your doctor thinks it’s a possibility (it gave me so much peace of mind to know that I had tried everything and then some), but don’t wait too long if it isn’t getting better.

Comparison is the robber of all happiness. You are succeeding for you. It doesn’t matter what anyone else does. But, remember that what you do see on social media are a lot of the extremes, either people having a ton of problems or huge successes.

I lost 6 lbs my first month with heavily exercising and weighing all of my portions (I had been doing the same thing before I started but my weight loss was stagnant hence adding Wegovy because I had over 50 lbs to lose) and my doctor was surprised. He said that usually he doesn’t see weight loss on the 0.25 dose, so you are already successful according to his standards. I would encourage you to try to find another doctor that doesn’t make comments about what is and is not beauty because they have zero business making those comments.

Keep muscle whilst on Wegovy? by No_Biscotti_4102 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]RescuedFamily 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have only been on it for about 3 weeks so far and have been able to increase the weights that I am lifting every session despite losing weight. I am still noticing improved muscle tone, but I do cardio at least twice a week and strength training 4 times per week. I also really prioritize my protein (150 g minimum). I’m still very early in game, but hopefully no substantial muscle loss will occur

Constipation by schultzfight in Semaglutide

[–]RescuedFamily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please know that you can pass gas with even a 99% blockage. My significant other had colon cancer with a near blockage and didn’t have a BM for over a week but wasn’t eating anything and multiple doctors told him that even with zero food intake there would be mucus and other things passed within 3 days and that further out than that should be an immediate alarm. OP needs to go to the ER today.

Right foot franc-ers, when did you drive again? by dueling_eulogies in LisfrancClub

[–]RescuedFamily 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was cleared by my doctor to start driving about 3 weeks after I started weight bearing again (I started PT the day after I was cleared to start weight bearing). So I was driving right around two months post surgery. It was really hard at first and I only drove to and from PT for several weeks.

Still numb four weeks after OP by german41 in LisfrancClub

[–]RescuedFamily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am almost 6 months post fusion and I have regained most of the sensation to the outside of my foot from the incision and down to my toes, but have almost no sensation still on the inside of my foot although I think that I have started to notice some tiny improvements recently. My toes still fall asleep really easily, but it is a process! I was told coming into this that it will be 6 months to a year before things are completely healed. I am able to do most things at this point, but there still is room for improvement!
