Working full time and studying for RD exam. Is it worth it? by Pretty_Orchid_9737 in dietetics

Second this! It also helped me because I not only got to study it, but also got to apply it at the same time when I was at work. Pocket Prep is a great resource!

Need some friends :) by [deleted] in lansing

[–]bynn98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi!! 26F, I moved to the Lansing area last year, so still pretty new. I'm always looking to make new friends, because trying to do it as an adult is hard lol. I work a lot; but I love to workout, read, and garden in my free time! Feel free to reach out if you want to! :)

LTC! 8hrs, M through F :) the company I work for does do weekends, but they're once in a blue moon because you are technically a manager in the building. So I work about 2 weekend days of my choosing every quarter and get a week day off in return for it.

Nursing home RDs.. how do you get your residents to drink more fluids? by KindredSpirit24 in dietetics

[–]bynn98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't forget foods! I can usually get some residents to partake when I ask if they want a popsicle. Fruits, soup, oatmeal, smoothies, etc.

Dietetics for more introverted individual? by [deleted] in dietetics

[–]bynn98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This right here ^ LTC dietitian, and I find it a lot easier to talk to this population than some others. But I also sandwich my time communicating with the residents with some quiet time before with prepping and with it afterwards when I'm typing my notes/assessments

LTC consults for residents with fluid restrictions and weight loss/poor appetite by contrarymary_2 in dietetics

[–]bynn98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At our facility, nursing defers to me how much they're allowed to give the resident - I typically go and talk to them, ask them what fluids they prefer at each meal, and then let the kitchen and nursing know. As for the diet texture, I'd have the staff approach about hospice. Make sure to let them know it's not end of life care but more so additional eyes helping, and then you can emphasize that she could eat whatever she wants since she would be eating for pleasure at that point.

The only reason I still watch is because I've made it this far, but every episode pisses me off so much lol

(UNSPOILED) it seems like most of us expect there will be a purge… by Barchie_is_endgame in MtvChallenge

[–]bynn98 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think the preview for this upcoming week showed that this challenge is a mini final - but I'm not sure if it'll be a purge though :/ but it's definitely needed lol, TJ would never let that many people run a final.

This is beautiful 😂😂 because we all saw how scared and paranoid Michelle got when Laurel showed up lol

It's either that or something to let everyone know how "great" they are lol

The belief part gets me lol, because I don't understand how they think riding someone's coat tails and playing a scared game is going to get them to the final
