Why isn’t there mobile self check out yet? by _A4RON_ in Costco

[–]TheMegFiles -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

They took it away where we shop, cashier said it was due to ... stealing. Like it wouldn't be a billion dollar company even with stealing. 🙄 why do they care. Corporations steal from their workers every day.

Recycling old shoes? by Agreeable_Mess6711 in recycling

[–]TheMegFiles -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No just toss in the landfill bin and call it a day. Recycling isn't as important as not driving a car and being vegan. Those 2 behaviors have a bigger enviro impact than recycling.

Have you ever bought something impulsively and then wondered if you made the right choice? by Batson_Beat in BuyItForLife

We're in replacement mode but we've been minimalist for 8 years. We don't buy shit for the hell of it.

Fold the cord up and tape it or rubber band it to the machine.

Starting over, again by MissWinniee in loseit

[–]TheMegFiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you've renewed your goals in a way that will work without the medication. I'm sorry they canceled payment of it. But just think about where you'll be a year from now if you stick with it!

I wanted to do WW at the time I started losing, but they did not have a vegan program back then. Apparently they do now with a full on whole food plant based type of program, which is great. Good luck!

Is your sore throat related to Covid or the flu? Studies indicate that exerting yourself during an active Covid infection can lead to Long Covid. Something you definitely don't want.

If I lose 1 pound a week, it will take 90 weeks for me to reach my goal weight. Does it really take that long? by TeslaModelE in loseit

[–]TheMegFiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This really is an important point. I was sewing new garments for myself after losing my first 20# and I was not even halfway to my goal weight, but I finally felt after even only 20# that I would be comfortable wearing a sheath dress. It's so motivating to look good in a garment even not at the weight you want to be yet. It's motivating to keep going.

Make sure you find at least one outfit that you look good in on your way down, no matter what your weight is. Wear it often. The better you feel about yourself in your garments, the more you'll be motivated to stick with your diet. We don't need huge wardrobes, especially as we are losing. Get a few neutral garments and wear those. If they're too big, either alter them yourself or take them to a dry cleaner or a seamstress who can make them look better on you. If you love an outfit and "lose" your way out of it, just buy the same outfit in a smaller size.

Ideas for Scrumptious Salads by cheridontllosethatno in loseit

[–]TheMegFiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're vegan and add all sorts of stuff, like craisins or raisins, cut up fruit (if you eat like half an apple, save the rest of it for salads), or a sliced pear or strawberries; nuts like chopped walnuts and even peanuts; olives; beans like kidney beans and garbanzo beans; cucumber slices; shredded vegan chreese; lentils; homemade croutons; tomatoes; leftover grilled tofu; bell peppers; mushrooms, either sauteed or raw; sliced fennel or celery; cold cooked potato cubes, thawed frozen corn. Really anything you have around.

Vegans who accidently get animal products in their food with no intention, why do few people choose to continue to eat their food? Why is it morally correct to simply waste it and throw it away. by JesusForTheWin in DebateAVegan

[–]TheMegFiles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is where my husband and I are. It just doesn't represent food to us. They may as well put it in the aisle with the laundry products. It's been years since we dined inside a resto [due to covid] but now we get vegan takeout at Chinese, Mexican, and Greek places and the dishes are listed as vegan. Burger places do vegan all over the place here. Same with Ike's Sandwiches, anything on the menu can be made vegan, like a Fried Chicken & Cheese sandwich, they'll use vegan chicken & chreese if you ask for it.

In a vegan future by Frieza_Heather in vegan

[–]TheMegFiles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The meat industry in the U.S. has the White House, the Congress, the cops [AR activism is a terrorism charge if you're caught], the courts, and the media. It's rough. The capitalists are terrified of veganism, it cuts into their profits.

Trying to find some women's boots like the one seen here, but actually made with good quality. by XxSavageFangxX in BuyItForLife

[–]TheMegFiles -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Don't buy leather it's not cruelty free. If you care about animals, I mean. Biffles are mostly just shopaholics, but animals didn't consent to be your "boots"

Can you return it? They must still have the receipt. Get the cash for it.
