I just had my first routine mammogram since my baseline, as recommended by my doctor. The imaging center urged me to choose the 3D option, which cost me $50 out of pocket since my insurance only covers the standard one. Now I'm wondering if it was worth it. Are 3D mammograms a true medical advancement over 2D, or just a sales tactic?

There is a fair amount of psychology used in advertising - however, psychology is a field of medicine; medical ethics dictates fully informed consent of a patient before use of medical techniques.

How does one remain competitive without violating psychological ethics?

I am getting a little impatient with a recruiter who feels like she has been ghosting me. I need to make another decision with a company by tomorrow but have not heard back from this other company since I’ve interviewed last Monday.

Now that things have died down I am having trouble switching from the less convenient food, snaking more than I should and not being as active as I was during the three months previously. I haven’t found what I need to motivate myself and I’m hoping that others could share what motivates them to get back into it after a hectic time
