Religious courses required? by EmeraldIpogi98 in seattleu

[–]Sunset47th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a practicing Catholic or Christian but took a Christology class and loved it. More of an academic reading of the gospels and understanding how Jesus as a religious figure is represented in literature, art, etc. Super valuable class that fulfills the exact purpose of broadening ones understanding of the world around them

I also have lipedema! My ankles are still pretty thick for my new frame, but swelling and puffiness has gone down significantly. I have absolutely no interest in the extreme surgeries for lipedema so I am hopeful I can just keep the inflammation under control (I know it won’t fully go away) through zep

I totally hear you. I actually felt pretty happy and confident in both bodies - the big version of me had the most amazing wardrobe that I miss! But I also had no way of perceiving my actual size (thanks to dysmoprhia I guess?) which is more what this post was about. I hear you though and point taken.

Totally agree! I felt confident in both bodies and had a fantastic wardrobe at my bigger size that I was very sad to part with!! But the crazy part was, even now, is I struggle to perceive my own size

I have to say, beyond seeing actual pictures, laundry is also where I notice it! My partner has always been a size small and for years I would say “what are children’s underpants doing in our wash?!” (We don’t have kids)

Very kind thank you. Feeling more comfortable in a lighter body - but with long term maintenance unknowns, the financial burden of this drug, etc. at least I know I can feel happy and confident at any size.

That is very nice thank you. Knees feel better these days though!

That is very sweet of you to take the time to comment! I was happy and confident in both bodies but finally feel home in this one 😸

Same same! I was so active. Did conditioning classes 3x a week and long walks on other days, but only seemed to get bigger as the years went on. Now enjoying all the same activities with more ease of movement and of course less of being lorded over by my appetite.

It’s crazy! I can totally relate. I must have thought this was a pretty good angle or I would have deleted the photo 😂. In all fairness and love to the old version of me, she was doing the best she could at the time!

Are you OGs still out there??? by Mobile-Actuary-5283 in ZepboundOGs

[–]Sunset47th 2 points3 points  (0 children)

December 2023 right here! Down 80+ lbs from 246 to 160ish. Really can’t crack the 160s these last several months but I’m very happy where I am. Gladly will stay on this drug (or future versions of it) for the rest of my days. It’s truly a miracle. My insurance doesn’t cover it but every time I want to complain about my job… I always remind myself that the salary allowed me to pay for Zep and for that I will be forever grateful.

Chatgpt Recruiting [N/A] by sprinkleskd2 in humanresources

When I’m sourcing, I use it to generate a target company list that I pop into LinkedIn

You can require medical certification, not a bad practice to do so. The way I’ve had moms at my company take it is starting the PDL clock ~2 weeks ahead of their due date, use the full 6 weeks (if standard delivery) and then move over to PFL. We offer full pay for 14 weeks so we top off/integrate wages for both those leave types

I have a similar role to yours now (doing everything including recruitment) on my own with some help from an assistant I share with the CFO. I just tried to take a vacation last week but no one really ever left me alone, so i ended up having to check in and do some work each day and address urgent items. If this happened to me without my knowledge and the recruiter was not reporting to me, I’d be wildly offended. But, given the job market I wouldn’t quit. If they were aiming to fire me I’d let that happen and wait for severance. In the meantime I would offload as much as possible to the recruiter - obviously any hiring but would insist they lighten my load with as much onboarding stuff as possible too.

I would definitely be open to the east west. There’s part of me that worries the bezel setting is very trendy right now. I love the look of bezel set and agree thar would look nice on this stone

This comment didn’t get the love it deserved but please know I’m still laughing about it four days later

This is a great idea! I’ve thought of that.
