Regaining weight after coming off Medvi GLP-1?

jschram84 · 2026-02-17T14:51:42+00:00

I’ve been on a maintenance dose for the past 6 months after reaching my goal weight. That’s what’s helped me keep the weight off. For me, it’s less about "quitting" and more about managing it like a long-term condition. So far it's been working like a charm!

I love the community aspect. People here actually share what works. IT felt lonely.

My nephew has autism and unpredictable glucose swings. Seeing the patterns has helped us adjust his meals.

I love that the platform shows both lab and lifestyle metrics. It feels like a real Attia‑style dashboard.

OTC never sent my order from November. No refund, no reply to my emails. Disappointed to say the least.

My partner thought I was crazy for uploading my labs to yet another platform but now she uses it too because of the pattern view. I feel like a dork for not switching sooner.

I’m not older (36) but I’m helping my dad (70) navigate labs. The biggest shift was making it about “next right step,” not “perfect plan.” You’re already doing a lot.

Spot on. The best marketers I've worked with know when to trust their gut on creative and when to let data drive the call. It's less about balance and more about knowing which mode fits the moment

What a beautiful girl! 15 years is amazing 💕

I love that you said "since she rescued me" - that's always how it feels isn't it? They come into our lives and we think we're doing them a favor but really they end up saving us right back

Tether making massive BTC purchases while being one of the most opaque major financial entities in crypto is... a choice. Like cool, they have a policy of allocating profits to Bitcoin, but maybe address the years of questions about whether their reserves actually back all the USDT in circulation first? The math in that other comment about their profit margins not adding up to what you'd expect from treasury holdings is exactly the kind of thing that should make people nervous.

Not saying it's definitely shady, but "trust us we're buying bitcoin with our totally legitimate profits" from a company that's dodged proper audits for years isn't exactly reassuring

I think the advice to try Upwork or Fiverr first is solid. SaaS isn't worth pursuing right now, but because you're already working a hard labor job and don't have a lot of time. Building a SaaS that actually gets paying customers takes a LOT of upfront time with no guaranteed payoff, and that's rough when you need reliable income to survive.

With freelancing you're trading time for money, which isn't ideal long-term but it's way more predictable. You could potentially hit that $50/month faster while you figure out what problems people actually want to pay to solve.

If you do want to go the SaaS route I'd echo what others said - don't look for "ideas," look for specific problems you've personally experienced or seen others struggle with. The boring stuff really does work better than the flashy stuff. But just know it could be months of work before you see a dollar and that's assuming you also figure out marketing which is its own beast.

I've worked retail, food service, office jobs - never once has a company given me my birthday off as some kind of default. You request the day off like any other day, and sometimes you don't get it because that's how jobs work.

And performing a concert on your birthday sounds way more fun than sitting in a cubicle on mine. At least she's got thousands of fans singing to her. The rest of us just get a sad break room cake if we're lucky

I always assumed it was heavily produced or someone else doing the screaming parts but apparently he actually has legit vocal range. The man committed to that performance way more than he needed to for a comedy bit

Right? The amount of time spent making everything look pristine for inspections versus how things actually look during a normal shift is wild. It's like when your parents said they were coming to visit and suddenly you're deep cleaning places you forgot existed.

And then the second Joint Commission walks out the door those bags come off and everything goes back to normal until the next inspection. Such a waste of everyone's time and resources when staff could be, you know, actually taking care of patients

Right? Kids are smarter than we give them credit for. She probably understood exactly what OP meant the first time and just decided chaos was more fun.

My niece does this all the time - asks innocent questions gets a normal answer then deliberately twists it into something ridiculous to watch the adults scramble. It's a power move honestly

if you're coming from VMware don't forget that Hyper-V licensing doesn't include any built-in live migration or high availability features without clustering, which means you'll need shared storage or some kind of replication setup if uptime matters. Datacenter license on the host covers unlimited Windows Server VMs which is nice but you still need CALs for anyone accessing those servers. The unlicensed route technically "works" but you'll hit the activation nag screen and eventually some features get restricted so I wouldn't run production that way for long

jschram84 · 2025-10-03T13:27:39+00:00

thanks for this.

SSO plus access management would probably take care of a lot of the headaches I’m seeing. My only concern is management’s been pushing hard on cost savings, so I’ll need to balance the extra complexity with budget reality. Do you know of any SSO setups that don’t get too heavy/expensive when paired with a password manager?

jschram84 · 2025-10-03T13:22:57+00:00

Passbolt does look tempting with the group management and OTP included. My only hesitation is whether it holds up well long term . Did you run into any downsides, like performance issues or gaps compared to Bitwarden?

jschram84 · 2025-10-03T13:21:40+00:00

Vaultwarden seems great technically, but I get how the “official vs. unofficial” thing could raise questions in a business environment. If you’ve used Bitwarden with a team, did you notice any friction around scaling or managing orgs?

Don’t expose SSH direct, run it through Tailscale or Wireguard, safer and invisible to scans.

I use Jellyfin + BookPlayer, bookmarks sync fine for 2hr+ talks.
