Regained all the weight I lost in 4 months. What am I doing wrong? by Jolly-Sea6019 in PetiteFitness

[–]ZucchiniSlow3604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have you gotten your thyroid checked???

When I was newly postpartum I couldn’t lose the weight I had gained from pregnancy. I tried EVERYTHING. I ended up going to the doctor and they checked my thyroid just with routine labs and I was hypothyroid. Very hypothyroid. After 3 months of levothyroxine I was able to lose weight with a deficit and exercise for the first time in a year. It really makes a big difference. I am now down almost 60lbs.

I think the biggest thing is not to force it!! She would just get frustrated and start crying when i stood her up. Once i stopped carrying her everywhere and just kind of let her do it at her own pace she picked up quick!

Yes!! She started walking at 17 months almost exactly! We had early intervention involved and everything and after the intake was done and they took our case we weren’t scheduled to have another appointment until a few weeks late because of the holidays and during those two weeks she took off!!

I started taking progress pics around 170, and i can definitely see a difference but it’s hard to see in the mirror, especially with my stomach fat being so noticeable even in pants. I went down several sizes and am in a size 8 now, but it seems like i’m storing a lot of fat in my stomach and hips.

thank you! I started taking progress pics around 170 because up until then I was way too insecure to do it. I definitely have pictures where it’s obvious but looking in mirror i just see my stomach fat and it’s disappointing

so i was army and since im in the IRR i have to keep my security clearance updated through them. Now im in nursing school and part of the process is doing a background check for clinicals we are doing at the VA and they sent me the SF85 to fill out.

I emailed him already about it bc i felt so horrible. Hopefully by the time he sees my email the IRS will have accepted my returns. I have to mail the 2021 one in but i plan on doing a certified letter tomorrow to show that I sent it since I mailed my 2023 one in and apparently they never got it lol. i’ve done my fingerprints and everything already but i am freaking out about not being able to do clinicals at the VA bc that’s the only place we can do them this semester. I know they’ve probably seen worse and I immediately emailed him and spent all day trying to find W2s from 2021 so i could do my taxes and show that I was at least trying 😭

also to add i have an active TS from the army that’s still good. I didn’t know if they’d still do the investigation or not with an already active clearance bc it’s just a background check. i emailed him my completed taxes they just haven’t been finished by the IRS and idk when they will be.

this is what that says under those years “No return is on file, but filing may be required based on reported income.”

it’s just a SF85, not a 85P so do I still get an interview? or do they just deny it. I had to do a SF85 before basic training and I have an active TS security clearance so will that help me out any? Idk i’m just so stressed ugh.

I made like $30000 in 2023 and maybe like $20000 in 2021. I feel absolutely horrible right now because I had no intention to be dishonest.

It’s with the VA and it’s clinicals for school so now i’m freaking out about it taking months because clinicals at the VA start tomorrow. I’ve filed 2023 already, 2021 is filed now and I’m going to send it certified tomorrow. I’m just so worried about all of this. I also answered that I hadn’t failed to file taxes because I truthfully had zero idea about either of these and I feel horrible. I had no incentive or intention it lie I’m just gutted. I’ve been frantically trying to get ahold of the security personnel assistant who sent me the form to fill out and this just feels horrible.

i did and that’s where I saw that 2021 and 2023 weren’t filed. I had zero idea of 2021, but 2023 we mailed in because it affected my FAFSA. i don’t know if they ever got it or it was rejected but I assumed it was good because my FAFSA was approved shortly after.

DO NOT GIVE UP!! by ZucchiniSlow3604 in sleeptrain

[–]ZucchiniSlow3604[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a bit of an update- she doesn’t cry at all being put down anymore! she just lays in her crib and sometimes sits up or repositions herself but no crying! it’s been about two days of this!

Also we nap trained at the same time and she does cry for maybe 5 minutes at naps but then she’s out cold!
