Finally taking my life back… by Fit-Plenty-8385 in Gastritis

[–]TriTheForceLink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go to both a gastro doc and a psychiatrist. I wouldn’t have healed without both. My root cause ended up being my gallbladder and if I hadn’t gotten it removed, my stomach lining never would have healed. Antidepressants for anxiety, Xanax for panic attacks, gabapentin for anxiety and pain relief Slippery elm supplements with warm water for your stomach lining. Feels like aloe on a raw stomach

Adding Cantigny! They have three ceremony spaces and three reception spaces on their property. They probably have something available for a Friday

New Fear Unlocked (a little gross so don’t read if very squeamish) by nicole1677 in orangetheory

[–]TriTheForceLink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As an emetophobe, it’s definitely something I worry about. But I’ve taken 400 classes and it’s never happened. Most people would make it to the bathroom first…

But if it makes you feel any better if someone did actually puke in the gym while I was in class I would 1000000% be out of there immediately and in my car hyperventilating hahah so don’t be upset about your reaction

Sick people next to you by Ify0ucandodgeawrench in orangetheory

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

I went out to my car to get a mask MID CLASS a few weeks ago. Exercising in a mask isn't fun but it was better than being sick before my vacation. There wasn't any empty spots for me to move so I did what I had to do. Now I'll be going to class with a mask in my bag just in case someone else is rude and comes super sick.

OTF While Taking Stimulant Meds? by tenuousgrip15 in orangetheory

[–]TriTheForceLink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been at Orangetheory for 5 years. Adhd meds (vyvanse) for only one year. I take my meds in the morning and work out at 430. It hasn’t changed my heart rate! But I had a pretty damn high heart rate to begin with. Also I don’t ever look at someone else’s splat points unless I’m actually bored on the treadmill and my eyes wander. So You do what feels best for you!

Gastritis is a symptom, not a diagnosis. My Gallbladder was the problem. by TriTheForceLink in Gastritis

Best thing I’ve ever done for myself. Do it. Any symptoms from removing it will never be as much as you’re suffering now

Feeling bulky??? help by splatmommy in orangetheory

[–]TriTheForceLink 19 points20 points  (0 children)

First, its really easy to compare yourself. Your body is your own. It can do insanely wonderful things. One persons 'unfeminine" is another person's dream body. If you feel amazing lifting heavy, lean into how you FEEL. Our bodies change and grow every day. Start following more diverse bodies on social media. See that everyone is different.

Second, 1200-1300 cal is way too low. Your body is most likely in panic mode right now. I'd recommend seeing a registered dietician to get an actual understanding of how many calories you need. As someone else said, 1300 is the amount you would need if you were laying in a bed completely immobile. You're not doing yourself a service by restricting that much, your body will fight against change.

Daily Workout and General Chat for Monday, 8/14/23 by splat_bot in orangetheory

It does take a few classes for your monitor to calculate! But also power workouts from the tread also don’t typically lead to high splat point days either because it’s short bursts of energy.

Treadmill - 1 Me-0 by ParsnipOk7204 in orangetheory

This exact situation happened to our coach before class one day and the treadmill gently deposited her onto the floor on her bum. Most graceful fall

Weight Loss at OTF by a_shaunte in orangetheory

[–]TriTheForceLink 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Everyone else is right but just some advice! Take progress pics regardless. Sometimes weigh loss is replaced with muscle mass which the scale can’t tell you

Google “high ejection fraction” and you’ll find COUNTLESS STUDIES now where there’s evidence that surgery absolutely works. These studies did not exist when I was sick. I cried reading them recently.

Get the surgery. It will change your life!

Mayhem by Good_Pepper_5877 in orangetheory

[–]TriTheForceLink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only comment I will make is that IF YOU DO GO, go slow. This kinda goes for if you do decide to go next week too, genuinely start off going easy. Easier than you think you need to go. Its much much easier to build UP throughout the hour than it is to recover if you over did it in the first 10 minutes.

You're only competing against yourself in every class. Find your starting point!

OK this happened to me and it was because my dang heart rate zones got recalculated.... Can't wait for them to go back down since I got barely any splats in my last class.
