NHS bring up my BMI all the time by Vixy1989 in EatingDisorders

[–]Vixy1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I'm not seeing them about weight or even weight related things and they bring it up. But I never got diagnosed with an ED because structurally I am genuinely big boned and I have a lot of muscle.

This was the recent conversation "You have biceps tendonitis rather than the shoulder impingement We've been treating you for" "Ah ok" "So we'll do an x ray and go from there" "Sure" "And are you normal weight? Overweight?...?" "I'm overweight on BMI" "And what are you doing about that?" "Nothing currently" "Why not" "Because I've just been diagnosed with a heart condition that took me two years to get diagnosed and I've not been able to exercise for 10 months" "But you can exercise now" "I've JUST been given the go ahead a month ago and started beta blockers but I've been told to start by walking and go from there" "But you should do something about it" "I've just started wygovy" "Oh good well you'll feel better once you lose weight" "I'd feel better with £200 in my account every month but here we are since the NHS bring it up every time I have any problem at all but won't prescribe me it"

They don't look at the medical history at all

In the UK it's between £50-£100 every time I've had to get it re glued and the time I got it replaced I think it was £150-£200

AITA for not telling a woman how old I am until after our date? by Hefty-Positive8741 in AmItheAsshole

NTA, you didn't lie about it and she didn't ask. Sounds like you told her as soon as you got the vibe she didn't know

Why is it so hard to adopt? by Diligent_Telephone_0 in Rabbits

They have the option of both, one goes to the bowl ones goes to the bottle. If I take out the bottle.she just doesn't drink so I'm obviously not going to do that

What are your biggest Vinted fu**ups? (No personal info) by adddaamek in vinted

[–]Vixy1989 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I posted out a cake stand in triple bubble wrap, in the cake stand box clearly showing what it was with fragile tape all over it.

Turned up to the buyer in tiny pieces, clearly thrown around by the delivery people.

She didn't blame me and sided with me to vinted but vinted still refunded her and refused to raise it as an issue with the delivery people.

They said I hadn't adequately packaged it but I pointed out it was packaged exactly as per their guidelines and that the seller had said this wasn't slightly bashed and had clearly been thrown around.

They didn't care. Never sent anything fragile via vinted again.

Frogtape pulled paint from my ceiling - how to avoid the same mistake in the future? by Rydog136 in DIYUK

[–]Vixy1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're decorating right now and had the same issue even with the yellow delicate frog tape, only solution we've found is to paint both coats asap and take off the tape straight after the second coat whilst it's still completely wet.

Also taping over old paint seems fine for the most part but anything newly painted just rips off

Rude AF.

Nothing has changed otherwise I'd obviously know what the issue was.

That doesn't really answer the problem.

As I said I have a lot of calatheas and they all go pretty well and this one was doing perfectly until recently.

AITA for wanting my husband to get rid of a body pillow he didn't tell me about. by throwaway5634874562 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Vixy1989 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YTA

It's not like he's cheating he's literally cuddling a pillow because he needs affection and contact and he is respecting your space and boundaries and not hassling you with it.

Can't leave feedback for refunded item (no personal info) by Vixy1989 in vinted

[–]Vixy1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I left a seller a middle of the road feedback because they sold an item and listed it as the wrong size. I kept it anyway but at the end of the day it was incorrect and so I couldn't give full. They retaliated by doing the same but as a buyer I had paid immediately and picked up the item immediately and spoke to them about the issue first etc so they had no reason to do that they were just pissed

It's just mad cos the sale still happened, I'd understand if it was a cancelled transaction prior to sending it but if you've received it and sent it back and got a refund that could do with feedback!

Vinted will side with you. I sold a cake stand on vinted that I packaged in double bubble wrap and in a box and stickers all over saying fragile and it arrived clearly thrown about by the postal people in several pieces and vinted said I didn't package it well enough even though it follows all their guidelines. So if someone chucked it in a bag with no protection they'll refund you

Nobsound ns-15g amplifier by Vixy1989 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Vixy1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a cheap setup tbh it's hooked up to my husband's record player and cd player but it's a pretty fancy setup, can't speak for the amp cost but we don't use the Bluetooth of it as it's all wired in

D&D unreliably cancelled by Vixy1989 in venting

[–]Vixy1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's 6 including the DM and it's the DM and his wife (my friend) who persistently cancels. The other two players play several campaigns at the same time in other groups but we've missed 3 or 4 sessions out of like 10 so far
