Happy Friday! Curious- what are y’all’s non-work related hobbies besides working out?

Hi all, insurance question - anyone know which is better in CO -Aetna or Anthem?

I’ve only lost ~5 pounds, but I’ve been working out daily for 4 months and getting much stronger and healthier (started working out intermittently for about a year before that). Yesterday I fit into a pair of shorts that haven’t fit in 4 years 🥳🥳

Has anyone else who had omicron experienced their sore throat returning? I’ve had no symptoms for a week and a half, and then just woke up with that same awful scratchy throat 🥴

Wondering if anybody does personal training or group classes as a side job given our busy schedules? I've realized I enjoy being with people who like to exercise and wish I could be a fitness instruct

Everyone coming into NZ from somewhere else will now need to self quarantine for 14 days. And no cruise ships can dock until after 30 June. Good luck my fellow Antipodeans.

Curious what anyone thinks about cologne? Is it a turn on? I am not really into it.. but I just got a whiff of this dude at the gym and the cologne did something to me 🥰 It was really subtle. I tend to just like the way a man smells (not body odor but just natural scent) and don’t usually like it covered up, but wow this guy tonight 🥵 I might might buy some but i figured it would be gay to ask him “what are you wearing” because that prob isn’t something the bros at the gym do.

First day of 30mg vyvanse today. Had a rush of energy and hyperfocus (too much so) about 2-4 hours in, but had a complete crash 5hrs after taking the pill (just a wave of fatigue, felt very good after a quick 15min nap actually) and not sure if it had any effect after. Is this normal? Should I stick it out for a few days or is this a big sign that I’m not on the right meds/dose? Nervous to keep trialling this during the workday since a midday crash is not ideal. Appreciate any advice!

So...seems like shut downs are headed our ways. Why are schools requiring us to come in? I worked for multiple teachers last shut down, and honestly went above and beyond any other para in our building. I have three kids ages 8-11. This will put me under a tremendous hardship if I have to go to work everyday and find a sitter. Not to mention- when I brought this to my principals attention he said I might have to take Covid leave. Covid leave only lasts so long- correct? The. What do I do?

Feel like I’ve hit a plateau at 18 lbs total over 2 months. I keep it under 20g carbs per day. Have an indulgence maybe every 2 weeks (usually during a work event, gotta have a beer with the ‘bros’)

Hi , is the Gym in sab labs Bangalore opened? Also will be open on Saturdays?

I’m having a really hard time with my changing body. 13 weeks, I don’t have too many bad side effects of pregnancy or anything so I consider myself lucky (no nausea ever etc) but I’m depressed at work, my skin is completely broken out and showing new broken face capillaries, and I’m not showing a bump yet so I just feel fat and big. I don’t know where this “glow” is but I look in the mirror and literally am grappling with not recognizing myself :( it’s been impossible to find any clothes too.

Anyone had luck finding a good therapist who actually understands ADHD? Getting advice like "try taking a walk every day" and "practice these breathing exercises" is driving me crazy. I need actual solutions and shit, not just platitudes and internet worksheets.

Is it possible to go into menopause at 31?
All of the symptoms you've all described I've had and previously labeled as PMDD, except I have regular periods.

As a teen/young adult I used to have a heavy flow for many days, and dysmenorrhea. Now I have a 4ish day period, heavy 2 maybe 3 days.

how can you get 'tested' for early onset menopause? 31, single, no kids.

Anyone have a favorite fitness watch/wristband?Looking for something stylish with a multi-day battery life. Tried whoop and liked the analytics and look, but it’s too expensive long term. Apple Watch battery life doesn’t work for me. Male here

Hi, anyone ever try using a ovulation test as a positive result for pregnancy test? I had an LH surge couple of weeks back and for the past few days my breasts are tender and I am having some taste aversions like yesterday yoghurt tasted like mud. Since my cycle is irregular I took another ovulation test today morning and it came back positive. This is my first time going through this and I am confused as to what is going on. Can I take a pregnancy test middle of the day?

I think I strained or tore a quad muscle while doing split lunges. Any tips for a speedy recovery?

I’ve hit a plateau on the keto diet (no weight loss in 3 months). So in addition to walking 5 miles a day (been doing this since month 2), on Sunday I started a Beachbody HIIT workout with weights (21 day fix real time). It’s 30 min workout daily and I’m two workouts in and I can barely move. Also, the muscle cramps are for real! Drinking about 80 ounces of water a day and I soaked in an Epsom salt bath last night, any other tips?

Hi how do we avail gym facilities in bosch

I've never wanted to do a knee replacement so badly as during COVID

Ugh, is that time of year again! Does anyone have any advice on how to handle "friends" and family members who spout conspiracy theories to avoid getting the flu shot

The older I get and the more I think about raising my own children, I keep thinking how can parents frame religious duties like fasting as something to look forward to. I think volunteering as a family can help install the value of giving back and zakaat. How can one make Ramadan and Eid something to look forward to when holidays like Christmas seem to be purely joyous occasion that one doesn’t have to put in work for like fasting for Ramadan?

I am very keen on joining BA Continuum.Can anyone help me ?I have 1 YOE and looking for opportunity in Chennai.
I can DM the further details.

Lateraled into banking and I'm getting killed. My aso will mention to do stuff as he's walking out, says do this this and this and by the time I process what he said he's out the door then I miss something he's like I told you to do it. If I ask questions to clarify he gets annoyed, he says read what I wrote again, how is what I said confusing, etc. Dude I just want to be fed info my first few months until I reach a critical mass level of info to run shit on my own to some degree's

Does anyone use Fenty Skin? What do you think?

4YOE @Amazon & trying to lateral to a similar role @FAANG. Have my undergrad GPA (3.8/4) on resume from top 15 school but colleague says to take it off (looks silly). If it’s a good school & high GPA, why ever take it off your resume? Even if 10 YOE...can’t hurt?

I truly wish people could understand the emotional damage hoaxes, social media ploys, and ill-intended jokes have on others. It is a deafening feeling when schools become places of survival. Wishing faculty, staff, and students everywhere a safe and peaceful rest of the school year.

I'm non US citizen and thinking of moving back to EU. My plan is getting remote opportunities across the world and work as a freelancer. My speciality is Data analytics and BI (Qlikview, Tableau). 1) How likely I can get a gig from the US? 2) if a job looking for a remote 2-3 months contract do they care what country I'm in? 3) how can I compete Indian rates as I'm in Europe 60-70$ per hour as a BI consultant is a good rate but I see online rates as low 10$😫?

Any referral for Scrum master role.
Immediate joiner - 20 days.
Location - Pune, Indore.

If you like CIA type shows (Homeland but way more cerebral and real) try The Bureau (French with English subtitles on Sundance. Can get for $6.99/month (one free week if you want to crazy binge) on Amazon Prime. Am into Season 2 (5 Seasons) and loving it.

Hi folks, anyone interested in creating a healthy sleep/wake schedule? I’m targeting to achieve and maintain a 10pm/5am sleep/wake schedule on the weekdays. I wonder if we can get this started, and check in to support and make it happen!

6/14 Check-In! Feeeling excited today cuz I got a new badge 🤩 What are you all up to today?

How does everyone here feel about preworkout? I used it for the first time yesterday and the energy kick is what I need to settle into a regular routine! But I don’t want to be dependent on it, supplement mfg can be sketchy, and it’s just another thing to add to my routine… thoughts to help me out?

Serious question, why does going to the gym and doing an intense workout raise my lidio/drive and make me want to run home and and just go to town. 😩🥹
