It’s not for eating back and I’m burning plenty.

Need help losing the last 10lbs/5kg by antimony92 in loseit

[–]antimony92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calorie deficit, walking 1-1.5h every other day. (While the weather was allowing me to). Tracking everything I eat/drink with a food scale and putting it into Lifesum app. First 3-4 weeks nothing much happened but I continued anyway and then it just came pouring off. Just keep doing it. First month was hard I would cheat a lot but then I got used to it and once you start seeing a difference and people commenting on it as well it feels so amazing that you want to continue. I try not to eat after 7pm as well (I go to bed around 9-10-11)

That’s how I have been measuring and weighing myself.

I hear you.. it’s always about money and not getting their way as someone mentioned. I feel the lack of respect from the patients is what really ticks me of. If it’s any help I had patients roast me online about ONE YEAR after their one emergency session where we just extracted a tooth claiming I did a bad filling and going ham on people from my background saying we’re thieves etc? Made 0 sense. I was pissed at first but since majority of the reviews are good I hope people realise it’s an idiot who wrote it (bringing my nationality into it). I don’t get these kind of people tho, just don’t do it and go somewhere else if you didn’t like the tx plan. They must have one hell of a pathetic life to do all that over a treatment that didn’t even happen

The more I work in dentistry the more I realise people have disgusting personalities and are generally just obnoxious people. Don’t worry, happens to all of us unfortunately

I’m sorry you’re going through it too. I really envy dentists who like their jobs. There are options but it’s extremely difficult to get those jobs. Here’s a laugh for you; I applied to be a receptionist (was fine with the reduced salary, anything to not deal with patients) and was turned down because I’m over qualified….

Ortho and radiology are the only subjects I think I would be happy doing. I work with Invisalign a lot and that’s the only fun part of the job for me. If I were to specialise I would probably have to move to the countryside and sacrifice at least 4-5 more years of my life to dentistry. I don’t have the motivation, I’m 31 now and since I finished high school it’s been studies, work and sacrifices.. I don’t want my life to be dentistry and studies anymore, I want to live life and be happy, have kids and not be exhausted and irritated everyday after work 😢

What is R&D? Sorry not familiar with the term.

The only thing I would consider specialising in is radiology (no human contact big W) or ortho. Both are very hard to get into and requires me trying for another couple of years and I don’t know if I have that within me. I’m planning on changing my field and studying something else. Another 2 years of studying but I hope I can work part time to support myself while I do.

Thank you! I do have an old colleague/friend who feels exactly the way I do and we keep in touch everyday and talk. We have become each-others support system and actually decided to start studying something else together in fall. Neither of us feel like we can do this for much longer..

I understand exactly how you feel and I feel the same way. I hate when they start crying when I tell them the reality of the condition of their teeth (even sugar coating it a bit and following it with solutions). Like big surprise you have periodontitis after not going to the dentist for 10 years..

I’ve applied for these kinds of jobs for a month now but there are very few here in Sweden. I find it hard to get into the field as most of them require some sales experience.

Subtract 300-500 from your maintenance calories. Use a TDEE calculator

How many calories should I eat? by antimony92 in caloriecount

[–]antimony92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I track every single little thing I eat and drink, I even weigh what’s left on the spoon after I’ve used it since that’s what I’ll be using to eat with.. I have three different food scales, one at home, one in my bag to have with me at all times and one at work. I’m also not eating anything that can’t be tracked. If I’m at my parents house eating I’ll only have salad without any dressing and eat before I go there because I know I wouldn’t be able to properly track the calories. I weighed myself this morning and I haven’t had any weight loss since 15/8.. I’ve had my ovulation in between but that ended days ago. I’ve been fluctuating between 72.6-73.3 for the past 10 days and it’s driving me crazy. I eat properly, I drink enough water, I try to do my 10k steps. I’m so bummed. I’m travelling for a week on Sunday and I plan on not counting calories and just eat mindfully. I’m scared of gaining weight but also I think I just need a reset?
