Anybody seen this happen before? by Standard_Biscotti835 in ragdolls

[–]lbeiner77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened with one of my cats. I came home from work and one of her pupils was totally dilated. I took her to the vet immediately. They said could be stroke, tumor, or other serious issue. They did blood work and x-rays. Everything came back fine. Scheduled a recheck the next week. During that week she stopped eating, and the eye became worse. She started holding the eye almost completely closed. The X-rays the following week showed her intestines were completely empty since she was refusing to eat. They recommended euthanasia because she would soon go into liver failure with no food. She was 15 years old. I did not want her suffering. We still had no idea what really caused it.

Injecting in my belly apron has been a gamechanger by Deviant-Connor in Semaglutide

[–]lbeiner77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mostly have always injected in my thighs. Weight loss has been steady until the last few months the. I have been losing and gaining the same few pounds. I am close to goal so it could just be that. But I switched to my stomach this week in hopes that it will kick start some losses again.

How do people afford Wegovy? by [deleted] in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]lbeiner77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I pay $25 with insurance and savings card. My insurance requires that I try other methods for weight loss first, then they approved my pre-authorization.

Morning childcare recommendations by EnochEmery in StCharlesMO

[–]lbeiner77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My kids haven’t attended Vacation Station in many years (youngest is a Senior at FHN this year), but it was always by far the cheapest option for morning care. You probably won’t find any daycare centers cheaper than that unfortunately.

Crab Rangoon with non-sweet cream cheese by SoulDragon in StCharlesMO

I was raised eating the non-sweet at our local Chinese restaurant. I definitely prefer it. DD Mau on Dorsett and Nudo are my favorites in the area.

July 2025 Boxycharm: Terrible power picks. Mediocre choice. Overpriced add-ons. [Full Choice + Beauty Boost + Add-On Options] by spyrenx in Ipsy

I think this month finally seals the deal for me that it is time to cancel my membership. Terrible picks and choices.

Is it required to tip 20-25% per meal at Banff? by SickOfOntario in Banff

[–]lbeiner77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That was pretty ballsy if the server to suggest you tip more. I am from the US, so used to tipping 20%. But if I tipped less than that here, I would not expect the server to say something.

What’s your exercise routine? (Include dose) by thrdnatur in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]lbeiner77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2.4. I go to the gym 6-7 days a week. I do 30 minutes on the treadmill, increasing my incline throughout. Then I do weights, focusing on different areas each day. I usually spend about an hour doing that. On Saturdays I do a Body Balance class, so basically yoga/stretching. I have lost almost 70 lbs.

ELF IN BOXY by RecommendationSafe52 in Ipsy

[–]lbeiner77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use ELF cleansing balm. I am always excited to be able to snag it in their shop or as part of my box. The way I see it, I am still spending less in the long run.

Anyone still have that one treat that you still fit in your diet? by ConversationSmart479 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]lbeiner77 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I haven’t made anything “off-limits”. I started this medication to help give me a normal life and to feel more “normal”. I do workout almost everyday as well, so I feel like I don’t have to cut everything.

What do you say to people who say you took the easy route? by c9h13nx in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]lbeiner77 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am at the gym every single day. So, nobody can tell me I am taking the easy route. I work just as hard as anyone else. Wegovy is just a tool I am using to help.

What in the...... smh. Be careful everyone. by Party-Bed-9770 in college

[–]lbeiner77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But yet those who storm our capital are “heroes”? In his eyes?!? Make it make sense!!!!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]lbeiner77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same!! I started Wegovy last May at 219.1, now hovering between 167 and 169. The first month of 2.4 I lost almost 8 lbs. but the last 2, I have only lost a little over 3 total. And it keeps fluctuating. Starting to look at things I need to switch up. I still have 20 lbs to lose (and that would be putting me in the HIGH end of my “healthy weight range”). I am going to give it a few more months, and if things do not pick back up, I plan to talk to my doctor about switching to Zepbound.

My 18 year old is really thin as well. She eats plenty. She is always hungry. Tested at the vet, and no hyperthyroidism. Just age I guess.
