I do as little work as possible hidden behind a computer screen but make it seem like I’m always busy and do so much work. Everybody (clients and management) believe it.

Yep, I typically finish assignments well below projected time to complete, yet I still charge the projected hours. Helps my utilization and keeps them off my ass. Well actually if a project is supposed to take 20 and I finish in 10 I’ll charge 11-20 depending how bad I need the utilization

Oh my gosh. I’m stunned. I work and work and never can finish. No matter how late I stay up and how early I get started, it’s always lists and lists of things to do, to improve, to fix, to make. I envy you, and hate you a bit, and admire you a bit and wonder where I went wrong. But, mostly I feel like you are stealing from your teammates and maybe not learning?

I had a failed natural FET in Sep & did a mock transfer 2 weeks ago (HFET). Results came back Receptive. I got my period 2 days after stopping the PIO. RE mentioned I can start embryo transfer this week & did not need to wait for my next cycle. My periods are not always regular, so I like the idea of not waiting for them to start but also nervous if this could impact the embryo transfer as it would not follow the same timeline as that of the mock cycle. Anyone try this approach with success?

Does anyone else feel a hollownees with their lives?

We create targets for ourselves, then race to chase them down. Be it for a better career, money or a much higher standard of living. But I guess our youth pays a price for it. Not sure if this us just me or does anyone else resonates with this. For everything that I wanted to have and do have now, I feel just very hollow.

I'm 11kg overweight for my height with a BMI of around 28.5. I'm hiking, walking up various peaks and ensuring that I get my heart racing the past 3 days. In some muddy/slippery places, I put weight on my left leg to prevent a 60 ft drop, knee took a lot of impact. Pity that attempting to be more active also leads to injury.

What do you recommend, a diet using the calorie deficit method? Looking to go back to gym, hit the heavy bag & lift weights from Monday.
