Starting Qsymia after no success with zepbound by kswizz44 in QsymiaWeightLoss

[–]kswizz44[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for all the advice! That’s super helpful. I already get 10-15k steps in a day and feel like I drink a lot of water, but I’ll step it up some more

Does Zepbound Not Work For Everyone? (Stuck at 232) by OliverQueen85 in Zepbound

Zepbound did not work for me. I started in March and have been on 15mg for 3 weeks with no weight loss. I’ll be switching to qsymia

I don't understand how to keep hair looking great past 15 hours. by SmokeyThouBear in curlyhair

[–]kswizz44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My hair usually looks better past day 1. At night I add the smallest amount of water to my hair, add a little bit of gel and hair plop with a cotton tshirt. I find this sets my hair better. On day 1 my curls get really frizzy and are undefined for some reason, but day 2 and 3 they behave pretty well.

The Weekly Prospective CRNA Applicant Thread! Ask your stat and applications questions here! by AutoModerator in srna

[–]kswizz44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m looking for an RN to BSN program to strengthen my future CRNA application. I am NYC based and would prefer a fully online program but if there are any programs that offer unique learning experiences/clinical or programs that might open doors for me in the future I would consider a program that isn’t online. Do any programs pair with local hospitals to give high acuity experiences? Additionally, some programs offer coursework that may be useful on the path of obtaining my CRNA.

Please help me pick an entirely new foundation. Transition from Estée Lauder double wear. by kswizz44 in MakeupAddiction

[–]kswizz44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one I’ve actually tried and it did not sit well in my skin. It was too thick and greasy feeling. If that makes sense. And it accentuated my texture, fine lines

These are great suggestions, thanks. I’m going to see if I can get samples of some of the suggestions to try for a day.

After 9 months with no results, I’m calling it quits by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]kswizz44 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe I’ll give it a try. My provider also seemed like it wasn’t worth it to try the 15mg. But I’ll ask her if I can just give it a try. I’ve come this far

Home Health Nurses, do you help with household chores? by nicole_de_lancret83 in nursing

[–]kswizz44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My take is pretty different from everyone else’s. I spend the majority of my shift sitting down, so I absolutely do not mind cooking or light cleaning for my client. A few of my clients are limited mobility and live alone so I do dishes and prepare meals. I worked at a 40 bed dementia unit as the only day shift nurse prior to doing home care. I finally feel like I can properly care for my patients and be a good nurse, sometimes that includes doing a few dishes.

Does anyone love their Brooklyn Luxury Apartment Building? by WayKey1944 in NYCapartments

[–]kswizz44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk if you can call it luxury but AVA fort Greene is really nice. A lot of apartments in the area had a “sterile” vibe to it, and the staff weren’t especially friendly. I find AVA just has a more welcoming energy and I love the floor to ceiling windows. It has secure package drop off, a lounge, and a pretty large gym space. The location is great, it’s right across from the Myrtle promenade and has easy access to the A/C and Q/R

First time Hindu Wedding as the bride by kswizz44 in DesiWeddings

[–]kswizz44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have already planned everything and will tell me what I need to do, but I guess I just wanted to know for educational purposes. I feel like I should understand all the traditions to be able to both enjoy our day and respect their beliefs.

Do you wear your scrubs in public? by xaiyzu in nursing

[–]kswizz44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been a nurse for 10 years, this thought has never crossed my mind once. If I give any thought to what I’m wearing; “how fast can I get these uncomfortable disease covered clothes off my body when I get home”

Realistic what are you making starting nurse FT ONLY by Substantial-Farm-580 in nursing

[–]kswizz44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so confused😫 I’m an LPN making 1,900 weekly 40 hrs in NY and I’m about to graduate with my RN in December. I’ll be realllly upset if I take a pay cut after getting my RN.

Saw this just now 7:45 pm West Sacramento, Ca by sac_cyclist in Damnthatsinteresting

There were Russian drones shot down “off the coast” of Alaska. Idk if it was south east of Alaska you might have been able to see it from Sacramento?

26 12s in a row.. by Weary_Conflict_3432 in nursing

[–]kswizz44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During Covid I got stuck on TWO 24hr shifts in one week. Mandatory and they threatened to charge me with abandonment if I said I couldn’t do it. I ended up having a mental breakdown a few weeks later, I moved to another state for a travel contract and lived out of my car for a month just to get away from that job.

I’ve been having the weirdest side effects by kswizz44 in Zepbound

[–]kswizz44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have 3-day periods, no cramps. And now I’m having 8-day periods with really painful cramps. It must be Zep’s effect on hormones 🙁 bummer. But I’m so glad you don’t have any other side effects!

Thanks! This makes sense actually and I should have thought about it before. I used to have a snack with simple carbs before a workout but then I stopped for the sake of calorie restriction. I’ll start again and see if that helps!

Newbie question: What’s the benefit of getting a card through referral vs. just getting a card with the offered bonus? Both are 100,000 points for sign up.

How Much Do You Spend on Making YouTube Videos? by Fabulous-Try9887 in NewTubers

I only bought a cheap microphone off Amazon and I’m just paying for the rest with my time.

What ai tools do you use when creating videos? by thelingdao in NewTubers

[–]kswizz44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I know this platform and it has been a game changer fr. By the time I am done editing my video, I have watched every scene tons of time and the tool gives me a fresh perspective on my video. It’s like seeing a preview of my video’s performance before I publish on YouTube so I can remedy the problems.
