I started wegovy pill last month and have lost 30lbs so far, roughly 8% of my starting body weight.
I’m a fat fuck though, and my first pounds always come off easy. Plus there were a couple days I just didn’t eat because I was throwing up and/or diarrhea constantly.
Vomit seems to be punishment for eating bad food (or over-eating, which is easy to do from old habits but also the medication makes you feel full sooner, and you learn to set smaller portions quick)…probably something greasy. Choose the carrot or risk the stick.
Diarrhea just seems to be a fact of life. One minute I’m pissing out my ass, an hour later I’m having the healthiest looking stool of my life. Important to remain hydrated, I guess.
The starting doses are $149/mo with mfg coupon and no insurance. Higher doses I think are $199. I believe both are cheaper than the injected variety.
As much as I hate the fact that I have to pay out of pocket for any medication…I’m fairly sure my grocery bill dropped by more than $149 since starting.

As I understand it, you should be able to pile the eggs on in there, they shouldn’t move like they would in a full rolling boil.
But at the same time, I had been warned not to put all of my eggs together.

It’s pronounced OWN-ya. Not to be confused with the singer Enya.

2·22 hours agoI made boiled (well, steamed) eggs in my instant pot and they came out perfect…
Put eggs on trivet/riser. Add 1c water. Lid on, sealed. 5 minutes high pressure. 5 minutes off and sealed. 1 minute venting. 5+ minutes ice bath.
The ice bath is the critical part.
The shells slide off.

It’s a florida ounce. Takes its roots in the cocaine industry of Miami in the 1980s.
A florida ounce is approximately equal to about 25g of mass (on earth), or 25mL of volume.
This is different from the imperial or US ounce, which is about equal to 28g or 29mL.

There’s a chance that the OOP is a teenager or smoothbrain who thinks that a third party could actually win a presidency in this country.
More likely is that they were a content farm or bot and probably missed a paycheck from Trump.

2·2 days agoIt’s that deeply-rooted Catholic body shame.
Fact is, approximately 50% of children have a penis all of their own.
Fact is, for many of those kids, it’s their favorite play toy.
Fact is, 100% of kids have at least one biological parent who has, or was born with, a penis.
Fact is, if they live with said parent, there’s a very significant chance that they’ve seen it (in innocent, non-sexual scenarios).
Fact is, if they have seen said penis, they likely have commented on how large it is. Usually in a public restroom, for the amusement of all other patrons.
Because fact is, an important rite of passage for any dad, is being out at a mall/store, alone with the kids, and suddenly needing to take a massive shit.
And fact is, my wife, who I love dearly, has grown more penises than I will ever have.

I think (and IANA astrophysicist) that they are saying because of the density of the sun, the forces of gravity are so strong at the core, that time dilation occurs, making time at the core pass more slowly than time at the surface. Over billions of years of existence, that adds up.
