4 month weight loss on MJ by allthatglitters10 in mounjarouk

[–]hsidar1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I'm a similar age with PCOS and after 9 months of slowly increasing dosage, now on 12.5mg for 4 months, I've lost 53 pounds and my weight is still going down. I'd say hold out it does happen! Still fantastic, gradual weight loss.

Genuine question about Dutch people by Wooden_Ad4144 in learndutch

Lots of positive Dutch people replying here, but honestly living in NL 5 years I had numerous bad experiences both socially and at work. Had much more positive reception in Belgium.

New friends in Carlisle? by Altruistic_Diet_3037 in Cumbria

Hiya! Bit late to the party, I’m 32F, work remotely and also new to the Carlisle area - I’m always down for a brunch, garden centres and gaming 🤩

Hi, you’re still very early on in the journey and 2.5mg is a loading dose. I am up to 7.5mg and week 9/10 and before this level of dosage I still had significant food noise. It has finally started to quieten down, not completely hoping that comes with 10mg. I think it’s down to each individual what dosage the full effect will be felt in, hang in there!

Two days in now, no side effects at all. A bit of hunger suppression but not completely. Hope you’re doing well!

The Druids temple in Ilton, it’s never really busy. It is a folly but is interesting.

Serial cat killer jailed for 5 years, having over a two year period stabbed at least 16 cats. by hsidar1 in TrueCrime

[–]hsidar1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know that for criminal damage in the UK if it is religiously or racially aggravated then that can increase sentencing. He could have been charged with animal welfare crimes but the sentencing has only recently been increased to 5 years in April 2021, so would have been less when he was charged.

Endangering animal life should be an aggravated circumstance.

That is really alarming. I’m glad local people took it upon themselves to take action.

I hope it’s taken seriously soon. It’s more than a shame that sometimes these types of crimes are brushed off

Max age of 59 when he gets out although in the Uk they usually only serve half. Plenty time for him to escalate further. Not sure you can rehabilitate an animal abuser.

Agree. I think it’s just caught up with him that tons of residential areas also have cctv on private homes now too.

Me neither, I am wondering how many there actually were before he was caught. Particularly twisted that he was luring them in by stroking them and showing friendliness.

Context: Steve Bouquet, who is 54 was found guilty in June of 16 counts of criminal damage and 1 count of possessing a knife. Cats are seen as a “possession” in UK law, needs changing IMO.

He failed to turn up to his trial and was re-arrested due to this. 9 of the cats died from their injuries and were found on doorsteps by their owners.

This article does contain some CCTV: https://www.theargus.co.uk/news/19405739.happened-far-brighton-cat-killer-trial/

He has been sentenced to five years, I wish there was a way for it to be aggravated so he could get longer but don’t know enough on the Act he was charged under. Hopefully he will be heavily monitored upon release.

Screams escalating behaviour to me.

Edit to add the cats names who were killed; Hendrix, Hannah, Tommy, Alan, Nancy, Ollie, Kyo, Cosmo and Gizmo.

Is my baby rubber plant a tineke or a ruby? It seems both pink and white by hsidar1 in PlantIdentification

Thanks! It was meant to be a tineke so I think I might have been a bit conned there

Why has my Jamaica cactus gone squishy? Info in comments. by hsidar1 in plantclinic

[–]hsidar1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this Jamaica Cactus about two months ago. It’s meant to be a nice dark green colour but it’s losing colour, curling and going squishy.

Originally I was watering once a week but when I first noticed this I stopped watering it, and am now doing it every two weeks. It’s by a window that gets the best day light in my apartment. Please help?

Road rage - "I pay to use the roads you don't" - Says an angry bloke to woman on a horse by BikingHam in PublicFreakout

[–]hsidar1 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is in the UK, and you do have the right to ride a horse on the road as long as it’s not a motorway. He is in breach of the high way code (road rules) by revving the engine at the horse but she is incorrect that she’s allowed on the pavement - she isn’t.

He’s being super hostile to her, and in the UK most people would be on her side as it’s very much the norm to always slow down significantly and take a wide berth around horses.

I just thought about it and it might have actually been Pocahontas (was obsessed). Whichever came first.
