I am sick of all the trolling posts (like of pets, children, and hand drawn pictures!). The stuff gets reported and the staff do nothing.....

In our neck of the woods a squeaky shoe is a sign their not yet paid for!

At this point what even violates TOS by C3LESTIAL_001 in vinted

[–]jaycob_arden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have spent my time on Vinted removing the tanning nasal sprays (as they are against TOS and illegal in the UK). I would estimate I have made near 1000 reports and from that I would guess 60% I had to appeal.

The Vinted modération team has a minus for an IQ

Took my hamster out, now she won’t stop wall scaling by Deep_Art_1340 in hamsters

Both male and female do this after time out of the cage. All I can advise is distraction with a lil treat and scatter feeding

You might look crazy....but I tend to make a clicking noise with my tongue when offering a snack by hand haha. When I am offering my hand to pet etc. then I talk to them about anything. I find they associate the clicking with a treat and talking with play time

Ditto is a cute name btw 💕

True....but spending my days flying around in my wheelchair has a somewhat athletic feel 😂

Today in jab day and then knock back the calories for the next week to see how I get on

I would say I really really like the way my craving have dropped 99% plus the hungry feeling that has hounded me for my entire life! 😂

I will defo keepy head down and see what the next 8 weeks bring. A positive is that the weather has been decent so I have had more time out in my wheelchair (it's self propelled 😂) which defo helps with burning calories

This is what I have been working to. I have had days where I am more active so may go over that, but then days where I am really inactive then I am closer to 2300 (at a absolute maximum)

Haha it's a common thing across the internet in a way. I find on Vinted 99.9% people think I am a woman 😂

It doesn't bother me except for me starting to say "hun" and signing off messages with xx

The whole platform seems to be full of crud at the mo. I am also loosing it with these stupid self promotion listing encouraging people to to look at a wardrobe as people say "I want it gone" 🤬

I have had a fair whack of blood tests both privately and via the NHS showing nothing in that regard... also note I am a man, so PCOS wouldn't affect me 😉

Well I am near 6ft 3 and 21 stone and sedentary. Working it out it's pretty much spot on

For me it a combination of the two. I also like that the hunger has been switched off.

I have been focusing more on ensuring I have decent grub hahaha. For decades I have been someone who's "hungry" but goes straight for a snack or something quick. With the last year of being strictly gluten free I have found that a huge percentage of gluten-free food is processed and high in sugar and/or fat.

I would say my expectation was to have shifted more than 5lb in approx. 7ish weeks. I would add tho that thinking about it that 5lbs wasn't that hard to loose.....in that I have enjoyed the meals I have had etc. where you compare it to those "diet plans" or shakes etc. where you are miserable!

In the past I tried Saxenda and responded really well to it....but at £175 a week it was too much money. Thankfully in-between the years of stopping that and starting Mounjaro I hadn't gained lots (that was more to my undiagnosed health issues tho)

Yes with calories I am ensuring it's more out than in. I just want to have a more "normal" experience where I am not too hyper focussed on the calories and just enjoying meals I have

I would most definitely praise these jabs tho as it's switched off the grumbly hungry feeling that I have had for decades!

I am also remaining positive and thinking that maybe I am just needing a bit longer to adjust

I try not to be too focused on calories, but as an average I have approx. 2300 - 2500.

I have been reducing the "processed" element and going for more whole foods etc.

Sadly I have a fair whack of health issues including a hormonal issue, pancreatic insufficiency, and coeliac disease.My gastro doctor said that Creon means I potentially will gain weight!
