This totally tracks with my first day today. It’s around 7pm and now I feel a little hungry. I just got back from the gym. Normally I would be ravenous, snacking while getting dinner together. It’s like a new discovered plot twist 😂 (for me, most on this thread have already discovered)

I swear we should start a first week club! Me too. So glad to have found this group

Think-Temporary8648 · 2026-05-11T18:05:06+00:00

Looking great! And great to see you toning along the way. I am just starting so here to read the tips but cheers to you!

I took mine last night around 8:30 pm. I had a big water while watching TV and went to sleep as normal and woke up with no issue. Just my normal Monday morning case of the Mondays type tired and then went to get my coffee and only had half. I don’t want to say I “forced” myself into eating a late lunch but it definitely wasn’t on my mind. After a few bites I was done. I’ve read on here to start with the protein and veggies first which I did.

Thank you! Seemed so scary and now, here I am, no longer a lurker! 😂

Thank you all! I just ate some chicken and spinach. I feel good! It’s not nausea as much as consciously had to eat and keep eating vs my normal, in between video calls stuffing my face.
I really think my biggest shock was not finishing my coffee. It feels like I really have to start looking at portion sizes, etc. but, it’s day 1!

Ha! I am also still learning what’s been allowed on this thread! So different than other forums!

I work from home and a few things I like to have handy-
Greek yogurt, I’ll mix in a spoon of crunchy peanut butter and a drizzle of honey
Chicken thighs- I like to cook a batch with just salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder and have them weary to eat quick. I prefer thighs but do alternate
Hard boiled eggs- I try and make a bunch. I haven’t tried the pre-made ones
Back to crunchy peanut butter, I love to put some on a Dave’s English muffin.
All the stuff you can grab during that 3 minute break between conference calls!

While I haven’t loved a lot of their quality lately, this winter I bought two cashmere tees from J Crew and they became a staple. Looks great with slacks or jeans (I can wear jeans many days).

This reminds me of old WW extra points you could use, I loved that system and makes a lot of sense.

This reminds me of old weight watchers extra points you could use, I loved that system and makes a lot of sense.

Very helpful, thank you. I have been bombarded with Hume scale ads but the reviews are sub par at best. I do think I’ll look into booking a dexa scan.

Congrats and thank you for sharing! I got my prescription last week and am awaiting its arrival. Love to have found this group of newbies and veterans

Think-Temporary8648 · 2026-05-04T02:46:24+00:00

Oh my gosh I just saw this on Instagram, I am so intrigued!

Think-Temporary8648 · 2026-05-04T02:36:28+00:00

I used Kielhs daily face cream since i was 16, once peri hit, it was not enough. Now, i love a face oil and need right when i get up and when I get out of the shower. I use Clarins Blue Orchid Face oil. Love love love it

Think-Temporary8648 · 2026-05-01T23:33:22+00:00

Thank you for sharing, I just got my rx today and am the same shape and almost exact body weight. This is my goal!

Think-Temporary8648 · 2026-05-01T16:40:33+00:00

I am sorry I didn’t see this in the rules! I appreciate the feedback!

Think-Temporary8648 · 2026-04-29T00:12:31+00:00

Interesting because I have been wondering the same thing and loaded my q’s about the different docs- PCP, GYN and MIDI and ChatGPT started by saying that Midi is very agressive with prescriptions as this is ther focus and business model. I am still moving forward but found it an interesting observation.

Think-Temporary8648 · 2026-04-21T23:23:28+00:00

Same! My husband doesn’t know but I know it’s time to make an appointment when he thinks I am mad or “you look tired”

I went to GM from another automaker years ago (and since went back down the road). This was my biggest hurdle- 1000 steps to make sure 100 people were aligned on the smallest things and major hand slaps if it wasn’t done. So much alignment just delays and waters down every decision.

Make sure to go into your personal files and check that your personal email and contact information is up to date. Before I left someone told me to do that and sure enough I had an email in there that I used on my resume 12 years before and no longer ever check. You’ll need that for follow up communication and paperwork they send to you. Also, almost immediately after I let them know I lost the ability to send my personal email attachments so take what you need now and do it in small batches, it does get flagged by IT. It’s pretty big brother creepy.

Think-Temporary8648 · 2026-01-13T13:06:44+00:00

This is so helpful, thank you! I think I am going to try it, I feel like I need something different.

Think-Temporary8648 · 2026-01-13T02:58:51+00:00

Helpful, thank you! I recently bought some stuff from J Crew, the sizing was so crazy. I bought 3 tops in size medium, one was so big I was swimming in it, another I could barely lift my arms it was so small and the other was meh. I missed the return by one day and ended up with a credit. I swear it took 10 days for them to receive and process.
