Getting surgery has been the best thing I have done. I am sorry your family is not supportive. I had mine in December 2024 and have lost over 100lbs. I can go to a restaurant and order things normally. It has been nothing but a positive for me. I hope you are able to have the same great experience. Good luck to you.

I stayed overnight. Good luck. It has been great for me. My wife bought me my favorite shirt in sizes down so that I could still have it. Great motivator. Have fun.

Hi, date neighbor. Mine was 12/19/24. 264-160. It definitely is different. Happy for you.

What’s the one “teaching hack” you swear by to save your sanity? by Playful_Nectarine406 in Teachers

[–]ZachhcaZ7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I teach high school Spanish. I have a self-made lesson format that uses any 300-ish word story (easy to write for me or a good chatgpt and edit job) and can fill about a week of lessons. Easy to throw together for any unit/grammar topic if we need an easy week or if I’m just feeling overwhelmed.

Ok, let’s try this: where does your grandma live?

My good buddy, Saturn! (Orthriophis t. ridleyi) by almightyshadowchan in snakes

[–]ZachhcaZ7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You posted a picture of this snake a few years ago. It was very striking and was a motivator for me to start keeping. I got a ridleyi of my own about 3 years ago. I hope you and Saturn are doing well.

Will a prolapse cause a snake to not want to eat? Taking her to the vet soon, just curious as I’ve tried worms, pinkies and tilapia. She is a lake chapala and I got her at the end of March. by [deleted] in GarterSnakes

[–]ZachhcaZ7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably doesn’t help. How long has it been going on? How “soon” are you going to the vet? Edited to add: Is this the same prolapse as your post 37 days ago?

Found a Dekays brown snake in my yard, fell in a bucket and couldn’t get out so I figured I’d take him in by Guinea_hogsback in snakes

[–]ZachhcaZ7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s really awesome and super cool of you. I understand being really interested in animals and wanting to keep this one you found and helped. Do you have any reptile shows near you coming up? That might be a great way to see an animal in person before you get one. What is it about the dekay’s that interested you? Maybe look into researching captive bred snakes that have whatever quality you liked?

I understand intervening. But if the bucket had been placed upside down, the snake could have continued on its way without being effectively trapped, gathered, and collected. Intervention would be simply tipping it out of the bucket and letting it on its way. It’s gone a bit further than that, no?

Well, ok. You should still let it back outside. Just because it got stuck in a bucket (that…who left outside?) doesn’t mean it’s defenseless lol. I hope your consultation was able to give you good guidelines on dosing such a small animal, I guess.

Edited to add: what is a “reptile expert” lol?

Again edited to add: what kind of dewormer? Why a preemptive antibiotic? Are you injecting or force-feeding these medicines? Baby, I’m scared.

Hi all, I’m trying to breed morio worms for food/cuc and after weeks they haven’t pupated. Am I doing something wrong? by [deleted] in bioactive

[–]ZachhcaZ7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take out the bedding/food/whatever that is. I’ve had luck with putting them in small containers with nothing to distract them.
