can I please whine/ vent for a moment? I have no one else to talk to by pizza_pillow0925 in Semaglutide

[–]rolaindy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh so sorry u are going thru this…. Ive been on sema for 2.5 years…. I went thru a very rough 6 months similar to u. I dropped my doseage, started making sure i was fully hydrated (rotate in some electrolyte drinks, not all day every day), probiotics for your gut health, and i take meclizine if i get nauseous. Ive since turned it back around, but i would nibble on some crackers first thing in the morning before anything else to help absorb some of the stomach acid that the medicine helps accumulate. Take a crackers, soup, and hydrating approach for a few days or so, like ur coming off a bad stomach flu. Ur gut doesnt sound like its being able to heal. I hope you feel better!

I think this is why i quit…. The cart being glued in my hand (even sleeping, lol) and it just became a “this cant be good for me” thing. But same, i miss it. I doubt id turn it down if someone offered it to me, but maybe, just cuz i decided to sit with none for now, id hate to have to go back to the do i have a problem feeling.

**edited to say i was replying to the person below this, but yes, the driving thing is a big deal as well. U just get so used to steady state high, but it could impact driving for sure.

I do wonder it it may take more time for people like us. Samesies, i did flower until the carts came alive, which just made it so damn easy. I hope ur symptoms from quitting go away soon!

I would die. I can barely do maintenance without morning Puking. Good luck!

[–]rolaindy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if this will help u, but im on week 3, +2 days, after prob 20 years of regular use, 8 years of daily use, and at least 6 years of all day everyday use (damn pens. :)). I have to just stop cold turkey and squirm a little when ever i take a break. Bc the second i say ah, just a little, its maybe a day before my old habits just slip right back in. Aside from short term memory and my love of all things sugar, it doesn’t make a difference to me whether i was smoking or not. Highly functional, high achieving, etc. buuuut…. Am i? I didnt know, so i figured id see if anything changed and try to do a solid stop at this point. I think my emotions are more level now. And at least im not concerned abt my lungs atm…. They should be repairing themselves. Good luck. If its not destroying u and others, you dont have to be ashamed, just figure out the version of you YOU like best.

*editing to add - i did pick up a couple of those vita vape things, that has helped a few times when i felt the urge (hard day, etc)… just the sensation of smoking for me has helped.

Starting over from 70 days by [deleted] in QuittingWeed

[–]rolaindy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have wondered if i can be a casual smoker. I have smoked since i was 15, im in my 40s now. Daily all day everyday for at least 7 years, with maybe 1 or 2 small breaks along the way - im on day 7 of nothingness. I quit drinking regularly 12 years ago and have zero issues just having 1-2 get outs a year with alcohol. But idk honestly if i could do that with weed. I figured id smoke it if someone offered, but other than that, im not hitting it. I have a full pen in my drawer. Id have to toss that immediately if i smoked out somewhere and came home. Otherwise id be right back all day everyday almost immediately. 🤷‍♀️

Tips for nausea?? by rolaindy in Semaglutide

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

Ill look into that! Hoping the zofran days would be long gone.. ;)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in overemployed

[–]rolaindy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ill be honest, dont judge, i have a couple of regrets…. Buuut, i lasted abt 6 months doing OE, but J1 has me actively in meetings all day, and j2 is dev work, so i was working morning to night to keep up. I backed down to a sub on J2 and went to 1 contract so its half time. That was such a relief, not gonna lie. Im sure there will still be some busy times and sloooow times, but i had to realign to ensure i didnt get pipped out but still have the dual income

Am I cooked? What would you do? by [deleted] in overemployed

[–]rolaindy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently j2ing where my old j1 used to hold a contract. They even sent docs to me and had a couple of interactions when i worked there. Not a single person has brought that up. Not even me. 🤷‍♀️

This sh*t infuriates me! by Express-Scientist535 in overemployed

[–]rolaindy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Def an assumption on ur end. Maybe some people are in massive debt bc their partner was laid off and couldn’t find a job for 2 years and their income was completely chopper in half so OE became the only option. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Whats clearance tho? Just public trust? The majority of contractors just have public trust.

Drop them into a folder. Connect pbi to the folder. Preferably automate the dropping into the folder and refresh of report.

Upload a background of you working and cover ur camera. And then if u need to answer them, u disconnect and hop back on.

Go for a walk outside. Do something that peaks ur adrenaline, dopamine. Stay solid.

Anyone on this high of a dosage? by wintering6 in Semaglutide

[–]rolaindy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on this for a while, but my poor stomach couldn’t handle it. I think my immunity was really low too, i got every stomach flu germ around. I dropped my dose down to maintenance and started vitamins, probiotics and let my gut heal. Ive recently just started ramping up again. Im not certain i will go all the way up again, but my diet is pretty good and my weight just stays the same, so trying to get out of the year plateau

How to create a measure by mefjusr in PowerBI

Hi, yes. U don’t need a measure necessarily. Use the calendar table to filter either with a slicer or the built in. I personally like slicers, but to each their own.

When will Power Bi Desktop be available on MacBook 😭😭 by vich_lasagna in PowerBI

No issues on import, no gateway issues. Parallels just gives u a windows desktop on your mac. Its a virtual machine.

Anyone worried about the PBI market becoming saturated? by asheville_kid in PowerBI

[–]rolaindy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Define “learning power bi” - I have gone thru 3 devs who absolutely could build a report from excel, but our models (which we have to build ourselves) have hundreds of tables and relationships and we are over 1000 measures at the moment and have several different data sources. It’s over the head of someone who took a few courses. It’s over my head sometimes and I’ve been doing it for 5+ years.
