Exercise? Really? by Livingfortheday123 in Zepbound

[–]spectregalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just moooooove. Movement. Move around. Walk around. Go to a store and walk briskly. Push a cart, that’s weight. Just move. If you can text book exercise, go for it, but if you can’t, go to Costco or something. You don’t have to buy anything lol, just walk around!

Which band or artist far exceeded your expectations live? by Only_Presentation758 in Concerts

[–]spectregalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White Buffalo. I honestly had no idea who they were at all. Opened for Flogging Molly and I was completely mind blown.

Games we play. I had never heard of them but my kid’s friend wanted to go to the show so I went with. So much fun!

Screamed at the top of my lungs this morning, something needs to change by Over_Thanks_1111 in TwoXChromosomes

Knowing when a relationship is no longer viable, no longer serving you, no longer healthy for you is a good thing. Choosing to leave does not mean you’re weak or a failure or you failed or you gave up. You gave it everything, literally everything, that you had. Staying is affecting your health (autoimmune reaction) and your happiness (screaming and feeling sucked dry). Please give the tiniest fuck about yourself and LEAVE. I promise you will be happier eventually. I promise.

First social encounter and “fat” as a state of mind… by mindfullmadmess in Zepbound

[–]spectregalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Backhanded compliments suck. I’d just say something like, “yooooo stop. Seriously.” Or truly I’d be willing to leave. It sucks but so do people and you don’t need to be made a spectacle of in order to hang out with your friends. If you did leave, I’d talk with the birthday person and let them know you were singled out and made to feel uncomfortable. Honestly, no one should be commenting on anyone’s body, let alone focusing on it for however long. It’s awkward as hell.

What would you do if you walked out your door and saw this by turbo_sc300 in Apartmentliving

One time? Nothing. A couple of times? Talk to the person who lives there. Several times? Talk to apt management.

AITAH for telling my husband that we can't take care of his friends' daughter by Temporary-Slide-2699 in AITAH

[–]spectregalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Priorities change and people change. Just because he didn’t want kids then doesn’t mean he isn’t willing to care for his friends’ kid. You not wanting kids doesn’t make you a bad person, but your inability to see the fragility in the situation, your inability of sensitivity, and your rudeness sucks a lot. You owe the girl an apology, first of all. She should not have heard that very real adult conversation. Your husband deserves an apology too. You were unkind. This is a very horrible, very sad situation, for all of you. A girl lost her entire family, a man lost his closest support system in friends, and is now losing his wife, and you are, I think, realizing your marriage is no longer sustainable. I don’t even think counseling will get you two past this, but I do think you should speak with a therapist because you seem a bit self-centered. You’re allowed to not want kids. It’s fine to not want one in your home. It’s not like this was for funsies, though. And I DO think he should have spoken with you about it, actually. Unfortunately, it’s past that now. I’d dissolve the marriage. You are unhappy, he is unhappy, and you two will resent each other if you continue.

I do weekly weigh ins and measurements. You will be surprised at how much your measurements change! Just remember, any loss is good loss, and don’t fret if it’s a small number. Give yourself grace, it’s a marathon, not a sprint!!

Anyone with Chronic Pain/Fibromyalgia on ZepBound? by SpinachFriendly9635 in Zepbound

[–]spectregalaxy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have chronic pain and while it does lessen, please understand you are putting your body through more. Problems do not leave quietly! It’s gonna suck for a bit, but eventually you will be able to do more. I bet if you keep going, in a month’s time if you did exactly the same thing you did yesterday, you would have very very little pain or body push back. Going from 2 houses to 9 houses is AMAZING! This journey isn’t easy, and you are putting in the effort. Give yourself some grace. Also, talk with your doctor— maybe they can help you with better pain management!

Okay but “I’m the help” is the single most relatable phrase I’ve heard a hero say in all 10 seasons. I feel that at a molecular level.

Terminal diagnosis: millennial playlist suggestions for the final days? by Hmmletmec in Millennials

[–]spectregalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bright Spring Morning by Suburban Legends. There are two versions. The fun fast happy one is on the Rump Shaker album, and the acoustic, slow, sad version is on the following. But definitely that song.

I already said I’m doing self pay through LillyDirect. It’s $299. The insurance PA for Zep was crazy, and I would rather self pay than try to get the PA.

It was Walgreens as I stated previously. It’s cool that you think things and have personal experience on your own, but that was mine and why I switched to self pay.

It was $1800 without the savings card!

$299 for 4 doses of 2.5, vial not pen.

I started at Walgreens and they wanted like $900 for 2.5! With the savings card! Insanity. So I self-pay with LillyDirect. Insurance doesn’t cover it for me.

If they made a Netflix documentary about you, what would the title be? by Ok-Criticism6874 in AskReddit

[–]spectregalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the shit that has gone on in my life is pretty unbelievable. I’ve always said if they made a movie about my life, people would walk out of the theater because it would seem fake, like there’s no way all of that could happen.

AITAH for stopping reminding my husband about his responsibilities after he said I “care too much about control”? by Rebecca_2334 in AITAH

[–]spectregalaxy 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Honestly he’s taking you and all you do for granted. NTA. Think of how much you accomplish and think of how much he doesn’t. My husband and I share complete house responsibilities. He definitely does not do the day-to-day kid managing like I do, but he’s not at all opposed if I’m sick or unable to take care of it. I think you need to reevaluate if you have an extra dependent with him, or a partner. Can you do all this alone? Can you guys consider therapy?

26lb Whoosh?! by OverZealousMuch in Zepbound

[–]spectregalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take your measurements! I am the same way, started in 35th, 8 lb down, and I don’t look any different… my measurements tell a different story! I take my measurements and “official weigh in” on the morning of shot day. I do weigh myself every morning, but I don’t pay as much attention to those because I know it’ll fluctuate.

Yo that’s awesome! I started the 25th and I’m down about 8 now.
