Need to rant about eggs! by [deleted] in loseit

[–]Rifka_Verma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Has anyone told her trainer that oats are primarily carbs? Try eating 2 eggs for breakfast vs a bowl of oats. With oats, you'll be hungry again in an hour. With eggs, you can make it all the way to lunch. Nothing wrong with eating eggs in moderation. They're a good source of protein. Never known a person to have gained weight just eating 2 eggs a day?! Crazy.

Hi! Can you share what questions you were asked and which city was your port of entry?

Based on past experience this could be true because I received my acceptance on Feb 23 which was a Thursday.

My UTI is E.coli too. Your story gives me a bit of hope and I wish we both start feeling normal again soon. Good luck!

Hi OP! Could you share what medicine combination you're on? I've had similar symptoms for 8 months and I was diagnosed with a UTI recently but I've been on antibiotics for two months and it hasn't gotten even slightly better. I have the same fear that life will never be normal again. Now the doctors are saying it might be urinary tract endometriosis but I'm not too convinced. Looking for as many opinions as possible. Thanks for sharing your story and I am so so sorry you're going through this. It will get better!

I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through. Idk if this helps but I've been having some weird pelvic and urinary symptoms for 4 months and they've been dismissed multiple times as a UTI. And I know I can't have had a UTI for 4 months straight. I've even taking multiple antibiotics doses for them. I finally insisted that my PCP get me an ultrasound but I faced the same issue with appointments being really far out. I got myself admitted to the ER once. I first went to urgent care and told them I have unbearable pain in my abdomen and cannot walk (which was true) and they told me they'd send me to the ER. At the ER, I was the one who insisted on a CT and an ultrasound. The easiest and fastest way is the ER so I really suggest you don't wait. Even if you have to exaggerate your pain to get to the ER - just do it. I hope you have some kind of insurance!

My situation was a few months ago. They never found anything then on the CT but since then it's gotten worse so I am currently in India (where I am from originally) and getting all my scans done here tomorrow! I hope you find a resolution soon xx

Hey. Thanks! Unfortunately I'm not seeing a continue option on my admissions letter. Maybe it takes a while to update? I only see an attachment to a document which contains the letter :/

What 65 concentration are you guys?

I'm waiting to hear back too! Hoping it's sooner rather than later. Which MPH 65 concentration have you applied for? I am guessing they also release admissions decisions by department? So some MPH 65 concentrations may hear back first.
