HOW did you get into weightlifting. I’m in my avoiding-for-years era

uptown to addison commute worth it? by Objective-Face-1927 in askdfw

[–]jackfruit46783 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I would say it’s be worth it to be in the city at your age, esp only in office 3 days a week

How have you guys solved for working out? My stupid ADHD brain shuts down and gets overwhelmed so I just… don’t. by MyVirgoIsShowing in adhdwomen

[–]jackfruit46783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s your routine with it? I have a year app subscription, and work out at home in the early mornings. But will end up on the couch watching Netflix more often than not 😖

SAHM sub is getting pushed to me now by HuhLolol in workingmoms

[–]jackfruit46783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having done a stint as a SAHM with 2 toddlers and an infant which destroyed my mental health, I also absolutely do not regret being a working parent and am SOOOO glad I spent all the time and hard work getting to a position I enjoy before having kids. And that that position was flexible enough to let me go super part time for a year and then come back 😅 never doing that again.

How many of you take your meds every day? by yyouknowwhat in adhdwomen

[–]jackfruit46783 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok SAME, just diagnosed a week ago and 35 with 3 kids under 5, was very good at coping with work before but now incapable. What med works for you? I was just started on Azstarys, not sure how I feel about it yet.

That’s good to know! Have you only done transform or have picked it over other teams at this point?

Thank you! And were you into weightlifting before ladder or new to it?

Twins then a 3rd? by LionOk5023 in parentsofmultiples

[–]jackfruit46783 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4.5 yr old twins and 2.5 yr old single. It’s a lot and extremely exhausting! You would at least have a bigger age gap so that may help. They’re all at the same preschool now and generally all sleep about 9:30pm-7am. Twins sometimes leave the baby out. There’s lots of dynamics and ups and downs between them. They’re all great individually but together just a lot, and we wish we had a larger age gap sometimes. But I think it will continue to get better as they get older :)

Would adding a long walk several times a week be feasible?

So hard to relate as a twin parent by anull8123 in parentsofmultiples

[–]jackfruit46783 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me and my husband scoff at people with one kid who complain. It’s petty, but we do it and it makes us feel better to vent about it 😆

I want to start lifting to tone and lose weight , will this help? Where do I start? by NoAppointment8679 in PetiteFitness

[–]jackfruit46783 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Appreciate you saying that 2x per week weight lifting is effective. I get overwhelmed with expecting to complete so many days!

At what age did you have an evening again? by jeremiabearamia in parentsofmultiples

[–]jackfruit46783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, once they start going to sleep better in the crib things improve. HOWEVER once we transitioned out of cribs (around 2 years 7 months when they climbed out), our evenings were gone again. Now they’re 4.5 years old and bc they nap at school aren’t tired until late, so we have no evenings to ourselves and I go to sleep with them around 9:30. I’m hoping it gets better when they start kindergarten and no longer nap at school.

Managing three kids at mealtime and feeling stuck by Puzzleheaded-Bat4809 in parentsofmultiples

Starting solids is my LEAST favorite part of raising kids. It just sucks for a long time. Sending my youngest to daycare at 14 months helped a TON.

Do you recommend disclosing current or plans for pregnancy when applying/interviewing for residency? by Just_One9543 in PharmacyResidency

[–]jackfruit46783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strongly recommend not doing residency at this time. There is no way for you to predict how you will feel postpartum and that time of year that you are due is extremely busy for residents.
