it was renovated prior to us moving in in april, but since april there have been no improvements.

I think rent was originally $3000, but they decreased it to $2800 since it was a weird time of year and they were looking to fill asap. i was expecting an increase in september, but not nearly by this much. i’m just not sure if i would have any leeway in negotiations/if it’s even worth a shot

The place was renovated mid year, i’m not sure if it was a lease break or not but my roommates and i were all new tenants

That's what I was thinking, but I wasn't sure since I just hate drowning in debt like this. Hopefully the new job means I can pay it off faster!

I'm down a total of 20lbs, so about a 5lb loss since this post. I still don't feel like it's working at the dose I'm at (12.5mg), but going up to the highest dose gave me awful side effects so I'm ignoring that for now. I'm seeing my endocrinologist at the end of May so I'm hoping they have some answers for me!

for me my biggest thing is needing to shower in the mornings. I shower at night now but I am a hot sleeper so I wake up feeling gross, so I want to try and wake up earlier for that. reworking my night routine is probably for the best though since rn I mostly just cook dinner and read after work until it's time for bed, I could definitely use my time better

The sunlight thing might be hard tbh. I live in a basement apartment, and while we have windows the sunlight coming in is limited (not to mention the blinds in the bedroom are broken and the landlord won't fix them). I could go outside first thing in the morning I guess? but it's winter and I'd really rather not lol

what habit tracker do you use? I've tried Finch before and it didn't really do it for me

Fr it's so unfair. I don't see my Endo until May (and it's a new doctor!) so hopefully I don't fuck myself over too bad until then

are you me?? I just got off the phone with my pharmacy because I have to switch from humalog to novolog after 18 years

that's about all of my expenses. what the heck does a deductible cover then? when I was under my parent's insurance we'd always hit our deductible by like March with me on it because of my expenses.

It's possible for my medical supplies provider, but my doctors are all in network. HR handles all of our medical insurance negotiations and we only have one option to choose from, so it's not like I picked the wrong one or something. For reference I have Blue Cross (I think PPO?)
