Has anyone tried the super food powders for meal replacements? Which ones would you recommend? Does it still make you hungry? 😂 Did you feel healthy? Thanks

Eat real food.

OP, no, I just prioritize my diet & health. Real meals + workouts are some of my non negotiables

Some folks meal prep all their meals on Sunday for the week, only takes a few hours

I have a vegan protein powder that I use from time to time in my smoothies when I’m hungry and want a snack but don’t want to go get like chips and don’t have time to make a quick meat. But have to second the person above eat real food.

I’ve heard really good things about Huel, both the powder and meals. I use Orgain superfoods protein vanilla powder in a smoothie and find it keeps me full

like

I've been using Huel for a year or so now and really like it. I'll usually do a hot & savory meal for lunch every day, and it's a great way to eat a real meal but in a limiting and healthy way. I've just started trying their protein powders as well.

I like Kachava

They cause digestive issues. My naturopathic doctor always recommended to stay away from proteins with gums

Huel seems good. Pea-based protein, low sugar. Stay away from Soylent/soy, unless you want to shrink your balls (phytoestrogen).

Powders are supplements not replacements. They should enhance what you are spreading eating through real food.

I don’t know what constitutes a super food, much less a super food power, but I’m pretty sure it’s not the same as eating real food.

It’s really not hard to batch prep food on the weekends and freeze - given the amount you can make with the same prep time.

Interesting. Let’s see if the uptick In cases continues to drive an uptick in hospitalizations and then in fatalities. Depends on how many of the cases are incidental or in very young people not prone to severe cases. But either way, look at the hospital capacity utilization figures! This is the untold story. Were we bending the curve to avoid unnecessary deaths due to overcrowded hospitals, or were we bending the curve to buy time for treatments and vaccine, or just to slow fatalities?

How would you handle not getting a lunch break when you are a salaried employee treating patients for 40 hours a week? I don’t get documentation time either, but all notes are to be completed the same day. Some of us have reached out to HR and we’re told to discuss it with the regional director, but the regional director says we’d have to come in early or leave late to block out a lunch break. My commute is an hour each way, so I’d prefer not to make my day any longer. Advice?

I think living a frugal life and aiming to retire early makes a lot of sense.

Recently, some of my family members are diagnosed with a rare diseases. When you look at the statistics, these are so many of these ‘rare’ conditions and cumulatively they are not rare.

Hi everyone! I currently work in an outpatient setting doing individual therapy but am planning to leave my job.

If so, what did it look like for you and the patient? Or do you advise against it and if so why? I’ve been researching this and can understand both sides of the argument. Thanks in advance!

Can I just vent on how annoyed I am with the increase in “priority boarding” of people that are able bodied? I am happy to let them on first. But I think they should get off last.

Has anyone else had a mentor (assigned to them by the Company) who seemed to have it out for you? I mean downright sabotage to make you look bad left and right. I didn’t realize it at first. She was fake friendly, but she was discrete too. Some of the executives thought she was amazing, but I had to clean up her work all the time. She wasn’t above me either on the chain of command. Later I found out she had tried for the exec assistant role and they didn’t choose her, they wanted me instead.
