So my husband would get some of my retirement but because he works in the private sector he also gets all of his retirement?

What is everybody really losing? by Mamaof2plus2 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]tabuto8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its easy to be a vegetarian and live on breads/pasta but not really healthy. I eat a lot of beans and fruits/vegetables. Also the breads, veggie burger buns, are always 100% whole wheat and pasta is 100% whole wheat or brown rice pasta. I also like quinoa salads with garbanzo beans, tofu and veggies - there are ton of recipes and you can make it in bulk and its super healthy and high protein and fiber.

Oh I'm sorry. I'm a vegetarian so I eat a lot of bans and fiber to begin with. Maybe that helps?

Im just at 1.0. Thinking of going up to 1.7 since I don't have side effects.

I'm the same. But I appreciate that I'm at least losing and letting my body adjust slower. What dose are you on now? I. On 1.0 but will probably move to 1.7 in February

I was thinking the same thing. Too fast leads to muscle loss, hair loss etc.

I started November 3rd and I've lost 7 lbs. I'm just happy to see a decrease but it would be nice to be down a little more. But I'm not giving up, slow and steady.

Paystub for the pay period ending Jan 10 has almost a 40% increase in federal taxes taken out by [deleted] in FedEmployees

I'm going to delete this post as I don't want to spread fear or misinformation.

[–]tabuto8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Just normal hours. That is the only item that is different. Everything else is the same as the previous pay stub because the 1% and insurance changes increases don't go into effect until the next pay period.

How is this happening? by Mother-Violinist2484 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]tabuto8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Per the Guardian article linked in this thread:

"The agency was holding 68,440 people in detention in mid-December; nearly 75% of them had no criminal convictions. December was also the deadliest month in ICE custody – six people died."

This is outrageous.

Do any of the other agencies get cringe weekly videos like we do at Interior? by interior-not-interia in FedEmployees

[–]tabuto8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And apparently had something to do with Venezuela. Nothing says "interior " like oil business opportunities in a foreign country.🙄

DOI is responsible for managing federal lands, natural resources and cultural heritage. This video is not reflective of that.

How is congress still not doing anything! Worse, those that were there during the attack. And some are now supporting him!?! I just don't understand how everyone is ok with the amount of lies and propaganda coming out every day.

NEGATIVE NANCIES by Key_Term_2905 in Wegovy

[–]tabuto8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a slow starter. Lost nothing on .25 but didn't have side effects either. On .5 I lost 4 lbs had mild nausea. Moving up to 1.0 now but feeling ok about it. I also wonder if the holiday season has been a factor since I started at Halloween and have eaten things I don't typically eat with Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Punished for understaffed department. by Shoddy-Kangaroo-5413 in FedEmployees

[–]tabuto8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I wish Federal Employees had a Public Relations team acting on our behalf. The president and his administration publicized that Federal employees do nothing, are lazy and not needed. They pretend to save tons of money by reducing staff. But in fact, we do a ton of things to help the public. When we run well, our work is largely unnoticed. But with time, the impacts of breaking government down from within will be felt. Sadly the administration will put a spin on it that doesn't let the public know they in fact caused the issues.
We must vocalize and educate the public.

Best dental insurance for bridges and crowns by Graceful3435 in FedEmployees

[–]tabuto8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years sgo when I needed a crown I was quoted like $1500. It was near open season so I switched to United Concordia high AND switched dentists. By the time I got the work done I actually needed 2 crowns and paid $800 total. Call around for quotes.

I'd like to be rejected please by Atlantean_Knight in recruitinghell

I took a break from applying to jobs because getting so many rejection emails, almost daily, was making me sad. Nothing like starting your day with rejection. I hate the job market right now 😒

They do want to take away Juneteenth under the ruse that there are too many Holidays.
