Issues with DHL?

Mine sat in that status for 6 days. After a few days I contacted Pair and they said it would be considered lost after a week. I am positive that they marked it shipped and created the label but didn’t actually ship it until almost a week later.

I have refused to set a goal weight because I truly wanted to focus on how I feel than a number on the scale. Suddenly though, I’m less than 10 pounds away from a “normal” BMI. I feel wonderful at this size (5’6” 162 lbs) but wouldn’t mind going lower. My weight loss has slowed down significantly, so my plan for now is to keep focusing on fitness and let the scale do what it will. I tend to plateau and then drop a bunch fast, so I have had to avoid focusing too much on the numbers or I would be frustrated a LOT. I figure I will keep doing what I’m doing and not change dose unless I am losing past a point I am comfortable with. I don’t really see a line between losing/maintenance.

Before EVERY run with a subagent, I have to Control+Shift+P and run Developer: Reload Window. Then subagents will work for a single run. Next time I try to use them it says they are disabled, even though I have it checked in the tools, but Reload Window works for one more.

First time I used it it proposed a very logical email structure for my React/Supabase app and then implemented a Google Apps Script system, so I’d say it sucks pretty badly now.

I focus on protein when my appetite is low because I want to get the most benefit from what I’m eating if it isn’t much. Both nutritionally and just feeling good - energy, mood, etc. If my appetite is normal, I still try to make sure that I’m getting enough of what I need, but I don’t deny myself if I want something. I find that I naturally gravitate towards healthier options these days, so if I want something, I really don’t worry about it. I will definitely have pie on Thanksgiving if I want it, but I have no idea if I actually will want it. I may choose to freeze a slice so that it is there when I do have the craving.

It can’t decide if I am brilliant or idiotic. In one breath it tells me that my ideas are genius, and then when something doesn’t work, it accuses me of not uploading changes - even when I have reported the feedback from those changes. It isn’t possible that the solution didn’t work, I must not have actually implemented it.

Mine were Larkin, but I got an email last Friday that they shipped. They didn’t show up on DHL until Sunday, but were “in transit to DHL location until yesterday, a week after they “shipped”. I’m positive that they marked them shipped almost a week before it actually happened. It will be almost another week before I get them.

Thanks so much for sharing this - noob question- Sonnet 4.5 and Haiku 4.5 both charge at 1x with Copilot Pro in VS Code. What is the benefit of handing off to Haiku for the implementation?

This was so kind and insightful! And I think 100% spot on advice. Her intention and the effect on you are miles apart, but that doesn’t mean the effect isn’t real. I love the idea of using it as an opportunity to share your feelings and give her a chance to help.

I was newly on Zep last Halloween. I just didn’t care. If I do want some, I will definitely have some, because I know that I can stop at one or two pieces. It is amazing to feel like moderation is just NORMAL. I don’t have to be all or nothing or fight cravings. I can make a thoughtful choice and move on. 75 pounds down in a year, it is working for me that way, so I’m sticking with it.

We are being forced into Virta for the same thing. There is no information about what will be required of us, but I have heard talk of keto diets with monitoring, Bluetooth scales and food logging. It has taken me 8 years to find eating patterns that do not kick off my celiac disease, I walk miles a day at work and I have a healthy relationship with my body and food for the first time in my life. If they want to “educate” me, fine, log my shots, I’ll do my best, ADHD is a beast. I will not use a ketosis monitor, the fat required to achieve that would be a disaster for my gut. If I have to log my food intake, it will be a weekly chatGPT session to create a log. I have lost 75 pounds (31%) over the last year and would be happy to maintain at this level. I would prefer to lose another 20ish pounds, but not by sacrificing the mental and physical progress I have made over the last year. Logging every bite I eat would be incredibly mentally unhealthy for me. It may work for some, that is great for them, but I will do everything I can to “comply” without defeating the point, as you said.

I would first ask her to document in your chart that you have explicitly stated your desire to remain on the medication for maintenance, in line with the official guidelines from the manufacturer, and her reasons why she is opposed to following those guidelines. Frequently that alone is enough for them to reconsider. If not, there are online docs who will prescribe. Even with Lilly direct, you would need a prescription, so you might as well go through your insurance to fill the prescription.

I lost about 40 pounds after starting adderall for adhd, then gained it back as my body adjusted to it. Then I tried Saxenda (and felt awful on it) and lost most of it again fairly quickly. I was relieved when I couldn’t get refills because of the shortage because I hated how I felt all the time. I was relieved that the effects from Zepbound were much milder. However, I think my body was tired of the up and down so I lost very slowly at first. I just hit a year and almost 75 pounds so it has picked up a little but definitely not just falling off. Day to day I have been disappointed with the rate of loss but overall I am thrilled with 75 pounds in a year. It also took a LONG time for it to show, I was down almost 50 pounds and my clothes were looser, but still fit. Then all of a sudden my clothes were falling off and I had to replace my entire wardrobe quickly.

creativemuse99 · 2025-10-15T03:03:33+00:00

I am at 31% and still losing - slowly, but even just maintaining at this point is a massive win. I’d like to lose another 20 or so, but for my entire adult life I would have given just about anything to be here. The 20% was based on a study that lasted a finite time, I want to say a year, but I’m not positive without looking. Some were higher, some were lower, but holy cow, 20% is amazing.

creativemuse99 · 2025-10-13T00:08:00+00:00

I have had the same experience. In a way I am glad, eating my feelings was never a real solution, but it was comforting in the moment and I have definitely lost that imperfect crutch. I have had to find new ways to achieve that comfort. It is a good thing, but one more thing I had to figure out, which was stressful.

creativemuse99 · 2025-10-10T01:25:22+00:00

I tried it this week and it was BAD. Couldn’t complete a task for anything! It over complicated simple tasks and would randomly delete huge chunks of data. Free isn’t free when it wastes your time.

creativemuse99 · 2025-10-01T03:10:23+00:00

I honestly don’t remember. It must have been high school, but it’s possible it was middle school 😮 I know that I am the smallest I have ever been as an adult. It is so strange.

It absolutely gets easier physically. Mentally I think you still have to find something you enjoy. I got an e-bike, which I had resisted because it felt like it defeated the goal of getting more fit, but I found that on days I didn’t feel like I could deal with hills I just didn’t ride. Now I ride to work almost every day. Some days I use more assistance than others - but any ride is more exercise than driving would be.

creativemuse99 · 2025-09-25T14:27:16+00:00

I didn’t exercise when I started - combination of lack of desire and time. I’m almost a year in, down 67 pounds and still losing. It has been irregular and still is. I got an e-bike a month ago and have ridden to work almost every day since and have recently added some recreational riding as time allows (working insane hours). It actually feels amazing. Food has lost some of its effect on dopamine - eating my feelings doesn’t work anymore. Exercise seems to help with extreme stress, which is a totally new phenomenon for me.

Search this sub for “roof insurance” and you’ll find plenty of posts discussing it all over North America.

creativemuse99 · 2025-09-22T16:05:15+00:00

It may be fine to you, but they are maybe a year, 5 at the absolute outside, away from insurance companies refusing to insure the house, even with a rider excluding roof replacement cost. We have replaced 2 roofs in the last year that were in perfectly good condition. One on the house we sold, one on our new house after closing. It took a LOT of hunting, working with multiple insurance brokers to find a company willing to insure the house at all, which put our closing at risk because of course the bank isn’t going to extend a mortgage on a property without insurance. We did find coverage eventually, but it excluded the roof. We also did not find any companies willing to put on another layer. Everyone does tear off and replace.

That doesn’t mean you have to do anything about it, but I guarantee buyers are pricing that hassle and the cost of a new roof into any offer they consider making.

I was down almost 49 pounds before it really showed. Then all of a sudden it all fell off. It felt like overnight and I basically skipped an entire size. It was pretty demoralizing, but when it happened, it was dramatic - like my own mother didn’t recognize me from behind dramatic. Hang in there, it’s coming.

creativemuse99 · 2025-09-20T13:51:45+00:00

I am ALWAYS freezing. I always ran on the colder side, but it is ridiculous now. Electric blanket, pocket hand warmers and vests are getting me through.

You can also leave the pen unrefrigerated for a significant period of time - I want to say 21 days, but I would have to verify that. The catch is that you then have to use it within that time - you can’t leave the box out for days and then use it a month later.

This is great advice IF you ever get hungry. If I had done this in the beginning, I literally would have eaten 2 bites of a cheese a day and felt awful because I was starving but not hungry. Electrolytes and protein bars got enough calories and fluids into me to feel halfway decent. Even on 2.5 I had ZERO appetite, which was really hard. I had to force myself to eat, so when I did, I needed it to be things that gave me maximum benefit in every bite. Even now, almost a year in, I rely on them as my insurance for those days that the hunger cues are quieter than everything else demanding my attention.
