Anyone have any good weight lifting routines for women?

Decided I’m going to quit in the medium term to take some time off. It’s been really difficult to keep the same work ethic and as a result am creating more anxiety for myself. Any advice? (Contd)

Has anyone here used Benzyl Peroxide to treat their acne? Did it work for you? Was it temporary?

For female consultants - anyone experienced with egg freezing? Considering it and looking for practical advice i.e. 1) best locations / clinics globally (quality/cost wise) 2) estimated cost, one off and recurring 3) success in actually conceiving & giving birth 4) dos and donts / regrets 5) any other relevant considerations

I was recently (in April) fired from a good nursing position that I was at for 5 years. I reached out to my old ADON to get some information on where we had our vaccinations from and she told me that I should come back and the administrator that I had issues with is gone. Is this something I should even consider? I miss my patients and some of my coworkers and the pay is better, but I don't feel like I would really be welcome to come back.

Anyone waitlisted at Wharton have any idea if there’s anything we’re allowed to do to improve odds? Or even how to find out? I didn’t see a lot of information...

There seems to be this consensus that there will be a market correction in the next 6 months. While I don’t doubt that the market is overvalued, I’m also expecting the vaccine rollout to accelerate and the Biden stimulus plan. So macro wise, seems like the market should continue to go up in the short term. Why do you think otherwise?

Metformin: Planning to, as per doc, add metformin to my daily pill list. I seem to have egg quantity but not quality due to assumed insulin resistantance due to mild PCOS. I am not diabetic, have lean PCOS. Folks that took metformin for IVF, how long were you on it and did you have good results? Side effects? Thanks!

Does anyone have experience where, when one thing goes “wrong”, and not even that it was wrong a mistake, but a complication, you feel overwhelming dread, stress and you shut down and can’t function? When you’re in litigation, this happens so frequently but I can’t control my reaction to anything! Help!

Getting emails from management and I can tell that I’m going to be put on a PIP or at least have it suggested.

I had a breakdown a few months ago and I tried to be super upfront with all of my management that I was really struggling mentally and I needed time for it and time to talk to my doctor about medication changes. I knew I wasn’t performing then and wanted to correct it.

I went to a masseur in LV last week and this massage turned sensual. He texts me today saying he’s HIV + undetectable and he tested positive for gonorrhea yesterday. This was my first such massage experience and I feel my world has fallen apart. Our genitals touched and kisses. I did my tests this morning and waiting for results. 😌😌 why didn’t he share this before booking an appt! 😭

12 years and my partner won't do chores. Vent vent vent. I make 80% of our income and pay 80% of expenses. I'm also tidy but hate cleaning. Partner works 20-30 hours/ week no kids and is a slob. 3 months ago made chore list, got them to sign on the list the 50/50 split that it was fair. 3 months later I've been doing my chores they haven't done any. Brought it up today and was accused that the list was unfair they refuse and they dont have time because they must "work to subsidize your expenses"

Any white males on here dating Asian females, specifically Chinese? I’m a white male with a Chinese girlfriend and I’m a bit worried about meeting the parents (they are in China; we are in Australia). They’ve said to my girlfriend that they’d prefer her to date Chinese so they are able to communicate with her boyfriend, but other than that it seems ok. Does anyone have experience in this situation? How did it turn out?

Hi Fishes, what's the max salary package offer for Senior Staff Engineer. And what kind of post is it.. Managerial or lead??

I just found out that a new person at work that has been with us at the hospital for about 2 months max is making more than I am by quite a bit. This person has about 19 years of retail experience and can only work 2 shifts with us. I have about 7 years of of hospital experience all at the same place and I’m able to cover any shift in our pharmacy, super user for all of our systems, trained in our PN iv room, oncology iv room and our main iv room, also RIVA system admin. Do you think it’s fair?

I’m a single 29 year old guy and I’ve been staying with my parents through the pandemic. Still have an apartment 2.5 hours away from my parents so I go there once and awhile to chill by myself. Every time I go to my apartment I realize there’s nothing in this city for me other than my job as most my friends are in my hometown or elsewhere. I just sit in my apt alone and end up drinking and missing my family. Anyone else experience this? Should I just move back to my hometown despite...

It’s always a successful weekend when I completely finish my bag of kale, half dozen eggs, and ground turkey with no leftovers.

Wanted to share some positivity!

I gained 25 lbs throughout 2020 & 2021. In Jan 2022, had a goal to get back in shape.

Beginning in April, after a combo of fasting, intuitive eating, hitting the gym 4-5x/week, going thru a short cutting phase, weight training at 85-100% & slowly building back up to 5k steps daily, I lost 20 lbs in 6 months (end of Sept)!

What is the better option- to leave alcohol or to leave sweets. End goal - to lose weight. Can’t leave both at the same time !

How many times a week do you work out? For how long?

Any recommendations on meal replacement shakes to lose weight?

Can anyone recommend some good resources (books maybe?) for learning about intermittent fasting? Seems to be a lot of contradictory crap online.

When you improvise and hit just the right protein shake recipe 🤌

Is there a bowl/thread to find fitness accountability partners? Looking to lose the last few lbs and would love to have someone to check in with consistently. 27F who lives on the west coast if anyone is interested!
