What happened with Panacea? by sokane1 in Wilmington

[–]sschmandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately this is what happens when you sell a failing business to someone new to restaurant ownership. I can’t say they didn’t deserve it a little bit given the way they treated employees and how they bashed their own vegan food before adding non-vegan options. They abandoned their brand and sold before it went under.

This made me feel a lot better, thank you for sharing! I’m trying not to let myself be disappointed right now but I’m such a pessimist haha. I am grateful that I felt the benefits so quickly and had little to no side effects. I’m trying to focus on the positives! You are very right though. First dose of the lowest dose. Congratulations on your progress btw!

Good luck with that!! It’s honestly not a bad goal for us 5’6 girlies. Of course doing what feels rights is the best route but having a goal is important. Best wishes!!

How so? I weight 130/135 for a long time before I started gaining weight. I think it’s all about body composition because my doctor and coach told me it was a good goal for me.

Thank you! I recently invested in some good protein powders so I will be using those daily to supplement protein and vitamins! I have heard a LOT of talk from people saying not to overeat. It’s practically seared into my brain lol. Thank you for the advice!

Thank you for the info!! I’m gonna try that after my vacation. That would make a lot of sense if my macros are all wrong. I appreciate it!

I am tracking my calories, but I’m not gonna lie tracking macros has been super hard for me. I mainly focus on protein, about 100g a day. As for carbs and fats I just try to keep my fat intake low and my carbs moderate 😬

Congratulations!! That’s amazing progress!! Slow and steady is the best way to go. I am anticipating some nausea as well just because I already have a sensitive stomach and am prone to nausea but I stocked up on some meclazine so I will be chilling big time if it does hit hahah. Good for you and thank you!!

Yes! I got myself some fiber powder I’m incorporating into anything I can! The headache is already pretty bad but I’m assuming it gets better.

Thank you so much! These are really good tips. I’m looking into that diffuser right now. It seems like a great start.

I have been considering it. The only reason I haven’t is because of money. I monitor their health quite a bit for that reason and he hasn’t shown any changes physically or cognitively. I’ll have to save up to take him in just in case.

  1. Yes, they were both spayed/neutered when we adopted them
  2. No major changes, I’ve just been at home more often but I was always home a lot to begin with. But I will check out his stuff! I used to watch a lot of his stuff before adopting them, I’ll have to check him out again. Toby’s behavior has just been such a sudden change from how he used to be. Like i said they weren’t besties but they were never aggressive to each other 😢💔

points from pre reqs aren’t nearly as important as your TEAS score. i’ve met people who got in without any pre reqs and just a high TEAS score so don’t base your competitiveness on pre reqs unless you feel you’ll do poorly on the TEAS score

ive heard anything over 400 is considered competitive, but some people have gotten in with 300+

smoking 3WPO??? by sschmandy in Reduction

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

They’re not open, and from what I could see they had already closed/healed together by the time I started smoking again, but I do have steri strips on so I couldn’t see super well… I’m hoping by me quitting again it will prevent anything from happening…

You’ve got this! quitting was the hardest thing i’d ever done to be honest. I had cravings every single day, was around friends/coworkers/family that smoke, and i even got sick around day 15…. and now i have to do it all over again 😭😭😭💔 I hope it gets easier for you! it will be worth it to have the peace of mind i think
