I recently started lifting, only once a week so far since I'm only at my work (and it's free gym) on Mondays. My friend said I might as well not lift at all since I'm not doing it 3 times a week. I get I'm not building a ton of muscle, if any at all, by only going once a week but it was really discouraging to hear that. I'm not in the habit of working out yet, so should I just stop lifting entirely if I'm not doing it 3x weekly?

Along with workouts is everyone also focusing on a cleaner diet?🧐

Finally reached target weight. What is best way to estimate maintenance calories and thus achieve minimal weight fluctuations? Skeptical of RMR calculations and the resulting implied Total Energy Expenditure, as it seems to overestimate daily allotted calories

I was having a great morning and feeling productive till I decided to get a sandwich and coffee from Starbucks. 2 hours later, I have food poisoning. I've heard of life comes at you fast, but this was just unnecessary, and I hate life.

I’m 9 weeks and I’m beyond exhausted and dehydrated all the time. I drink so much water but still feel dehydrated. Ugh. I can’t stand peeing so much, drinking this much, and still having it not be enoughhhhhh

Sharing my story: I carry an abnormal gene in which me and my wife's first child was affected. We decided with our second child to use IVF. We started our journey in January 2021 and my wife went through 4 IVF cycles using my sperm in a 9 month span (her choice). We decided after the 4th round failed to go a different route and use sperm donation to rid us of the gene. During 2022, she went through 4 rounds of IUI and finally got one that stuck. She is now 14 weeks pregnant and due in April 😊

Can anyone in the Charlotte area recommend a good, caring fertility clinic? Every single one I've researched has some pretty scathing reviews. Anybody have a good experience?

Feeling really nervous, help! I’ve been using topical hydroquinone 4% since before I found out I was pregnant. Now reading the label I realise that it’s not advised and a category C by the FDA - I’m 6 weeks pregnant and have obviously stopped now but really scared I might have caused serious harm to my baby.

Have any of you used this while pregnant and it turned out fine? Any other insights that can give me some peace of mind? 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

New to therapy question - I had a consultation with a therapist last week where I unpacked all the shit I kind of want to work on / talked about my life / background. Am I supposed to come to the next meeting with an agenda / stuff I want to talk about or should I expect that therapist to lead? I want to reduce my anxiety overall but I’m not sure what conversations are supposed to accomplish that.

Hi all, 👋

I was recently laid off due to being in web3 but the market tanked and screwed me. My background is aerospace quality engineering and digital transformation / product management. 4.0 MBA from ERAU.

It’s been almost 2 months now.. and it’s starting to really break me down mentally. I feel like I’m just not having much luck since my credentials are solid I feel. I have a second job interview with fidelity and currently waiting to hear back from AWS.

Anyone able to refer?

I’ve applied to a couple positions Goldman Sachs but I never hear anything back. Looking for an opportunity at the Richardson or Dallas location.

Confession: I love staying home with my husband and dog, and I kinda dread the pandemic ending. I don’t want to be forced to leave my house. I never want to go to the office again. I don’t really miss socializing with colleagues and friends. I absolutely love staying home and dread the day I’m expected to go into the office even a couple of days a week. I think I’ll be very depressed leaving my husband and dog every day after seeing how nice it is to stay home with them.

Hi fishes,

Does anyone know how long you have to wait post biometrics inorder to get the passport letter or even the visa? It's for Canada work visa.

Biz traveling for the first time since March 2020 after switching to another firm. Not sure why it’s restricted so much at the big firms- it’s no different and feels pretty safe.

I love working at the bookstore and I'm proud to work with such a large group of people from different backgrounds. I'm really happy we're all here. But it probably isn't the best idea to get someone to reshelve books when they haven't been taught how to categorize them properly. It's like I spend most of the day following one of my coworkers around and discreetly fixing what he works on. He's a great guy, very personable, but wow is it frustrating.
