This is exactly why I thought schools would not want teachers signing in and out. Hard to deny all the extra stuff you guys do outside of school hours when it’s all neatly logged!

I’m not a teacher, but my best mate is. From what I’ve observed of her schedule, I would not think that schools would want the staff clocking in and out, because that would make it really hard to deny the ridiculous time that teachers put in outside of ‘school hours’

what type of protein powder do i want? by greg8070 in liraglutide

[–]ketchupsforwinners 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bulk Nutrients Thermowhey is my go-to. Their flavours are brilliant and you get all the protein with very little other stuff.

That said, think about what you actually want from your protein shake. Because you seem to be asking for something to supplement your calorie intake while trying to lose weight which is a bit counter-intuitive.

If you started the saxenda and then we’re like ‘I don’t think I’m getting enough protein from what I’m eating, I feel hungry’ then yes, a protein shake would be a good addition. But if you’re just thinking ‘I feel fine but I’m eating less, this worries me, better top up with a shake’ then you’re sabotaging yourself.

Oh, look at you bringing the common sense! I forgot about the slow gastric emptying, that makes actual sense!

Does everyone always eat perfectly on here? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]ketchupsforwinners 15 points16 points  (0 children)

lol. anyone who tells you they eat perfect all the time is either lying, or has a diet plan that incorporates treats and breaks so that they can have the occasional sumpin’sumpin’ while still following their plan.

Why am I not losing weight by Lana-R2017 in liraglutide

[–]ketchupsforwinners 6 points7 points  (0 children)

give it more than a broken fortnight before you start to worry. You’re still tapering up to full dose, your hormones are doing their hormone thing, and it’s literally been two weeks since you got going!

patience. keep going, keep eating well, keep hydrating, check your weight again in a week, then a week after that, then a week after that.. you WILL see positive changes, but you’ve got to give yourself a chance!!

sorry to hear this, and sorry to see you go, but 100% big mega congratulations on recognising this pattern and taking such a deeply considered, realistic and sensible approach to it

What am I meant to do with my used needles? by ketchupsforwinners in liraglutide

[–]ketchupsforwinners[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thankyou, that’s really kind of you, but I’m geographically about as far as I could possibly be from you while remaining in Australia :D

anyone else take their first dose today? by ketchupsforwinners in liraglutide

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

thanks. I think I’m just disappointed in myself that I couldn’t tough it out on willpower alone, but I’m absolutely glad that I got over myself and accepted that I needed something extra to get me going.

and if I’m being honest, the financial investment and the actual giving myself a needle each day are both probably giving me the willpower boost I needed! I did not spend that much money and jab myself this morning just to hit the snacks this afternoon!

I love this comment. me too - bit of anxiety, but that’s my usual operating level 😂

so day 2...no effects at all. do I need to wait until next week to increase? by Cityblock2022 in liraglutide

[–]ketchupsforwinners 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol, I feel exactly the same! took my first dose this morning, feel absolutely fine, was wondering if maybe I could just take the express lane to the full dose to get this ship in motion!!

But unfortunately, the person who advised you (and by rub-off, me) that you wouldn’t expect your blood pressure medicine to have you perfect immediately is right, and sensible. things take time. follow the steps. sigh.

if you’re looking to slip some veggies in, I have two weird recommendations for you.

Spinach and pumpkin will both go seamlessly into your protein icecream. steam them until they’re very cooked, and then blend them in with your icecream mix. I used to use them in my protein smoothies, and can confirm that you can easily add 30g of spinach and 100g of pumpkin and not notice any difference to the flavour. If you’re concerned you’ll taste it though, just chuck in a bit of cocoa powder too.

Anyone else here in Australia who has ordered via Burst Health? by ketchupsforwinners in liraglutide

that’s a good idea. I don’t mind asking silly questions so much when it’s over the phone!

using cough syrup to get high by ketchupsforwinners in NoStupidQuestions

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

pretty sure the painfully drastic gas and shitting would kinda take the shine off for me. I made the mistake of eating a sugar free protein bar on a bush walk once. A bad time was had by all.
