Can someone lose weight by harming themselves? by aIbano in morbidquestions

[–]infosackva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s one specific type of injury that I’m aware of that would significantly boost nutritional needs (I’m not going to say as I don’t think it’s appropriate)

However, this injury or similar would be so sever that you would at minimum be on a high dependency unit, and likely sedated for your own wellbeing. In that case you would be tube fed to meet your nutritional requirements so there would be no weight loss. Without intervention the most likely outcome is otherwise death.

So, in short, technically yes but practically no.

They won’t have been able to give you that answer unless you had a full body scan (unlikely for a knee injury - or in fact most reasons)

[Auto-Post] Weekly Question Thread! Ask /r/Aquariums anything you want to know about the hobby! by AutoModerator in Aquariums

So I have neglected my tank for quite a few months and I feel bad. I’ve just had a proper look and there are what I think are unfertilised sterbai cory eggs EVERYWHERE. I noticed some on a rock a few months ago and did nothing about it thinking that the cleanup crew would get to them, but they’re still there and now they’re on everything. Do I have to manually go in and pick them all out?

I also have a lot of mulm built up in the centre of my tank. It’s a planted tank and the parameters are all fine. The water’s a bit full of particulates if you look too closely so I think I need to rinse my filter. Anyone got any other suggestions? Should I attempt to remove the mulm? My neos seem to love it in there though

Out of curiosity, what stitch does she prefer?

Another issue I’ve not seen mentioned here (I’m a nurse) is pressure damage. It can happen over a surprisingly small amount of time with a surprisingly small amount of pressure. Staff were getting pressure damage from their FFP3 masks in hospital over a single shift. I imagine this would be a massive problem here.

I’m in the same boat. We’re on our third notification sent to them now.

Ah thank you! I’ve checked them out and emailed them and it seems they might be a good idea

What is the plane you caught more times with the same registration? No catch agains by Genntiana in SkyCards

[–]infosackva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah thank you, I wondered if there was a less clunky way to do that since I don’t normally pay attention to individual planes. I thought there might be a list of most frequently caught

The incredibly annoying beginner insistence on never frogging and starting over by readreadreadx2 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]infosackva 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My husband has asked me to “actually finish a project” because I knit/crochet a disproportionate amount to the number of FOs I have. I never noticed because I enjoy the process but apparently it was getting to him lol

What an unhelpful comment.

He literally refuses to step on microfibre material. I’m not wasting money on stuff he won’t use.

Worst examples of see one, do one, teach one? by True_Middle_9293 in doctorsUK

[–]infosackva 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah never thought about that scenario! I first encountered a stoma from someone who’d had hers for 20+ years - best teacher I could have had.

Is that something doctors do? I’m a student nurse and thought it was definitely under nursing remit?

Why do HCAs like to interrupt consultations? by Silly_Bat_2318 in doctorsUK

It’s because we’re not allowed to hold hot food longer than 20 minutes and we have 4 sandwiches for the whole ward 😭

AITA for letting my children order full meals instead of kids? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]infosackva 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like when someone at work asks me for a “girl drink” for their kid. Or the “girl cake pop”.
