Woman On Ozempic Goes Online For Advice About Her BF, Gets A Mental Health Diagnosis Instead
Woman On Ozempic Goes Online For Advice About Her BF, Gets A Mental Health Diagnosis Instead

The reason people s**t on ozempic is because it’s just a medical version of every other quick fix diet trend. They’re now talking about ozempic bounce back where most people regain the weight after stopping ozempic (I just looked up one study that said people regained 2/3rds of the weight they lost in the first year). And somehow people are shocked this happens?? If you don’t fix the underlying diet/exercise/hormonal issues, then there’s no point in taking ozempic. Studies have also found that overweight people tend to overestimate their calories burned and underestimate their calories consumed. Long story short, it’s hard to believe someone when they say they’re eating a calorie deficit and not losing weight because it’s almost never true (excluding the cases where people have a hormonal medicinal condition that needs to be addressed in which case that’s what the doctor should be looking into and not prescribing quick fix medications).

It is the same place. And it’s awful. This town on Santorini island was the worst, most overcrowded tourist place I’ve ever been… and I’ve been to Rome. Only topped perhaps by the Vatican (which I think is worth it for the culture/art history). Do not go.

People Share 45 Uneasy, Sad, And Painful “I Hate To Break It To You” Moments
People Share 45 Uneasy, Sad, And Painful “I Hate To Break It To You” Moments

I told the husband of one of my dearest friends that his wife was sneaking out at night to go to bars alone to drink, and that two other of our "friends" were covering for her. I then wrote her a letter saying how much I loved her and worried about her, but understood if she never spoke to me again. She called me the night before she left for rehab, still hurt and angry but acknowledging that her mother had pointed out how much I must care to put myself in that position. When she got back from rehab, she was a new person and thanked me for saving her life. Unfortunately the damage was done to her marriage, but she eventually met another man and led her best, sober life. Several years later, COVID took her, but I swear I feel her with me every day.

To all the people saying why not respond back with “the weather will be bad”, etc etc. He’s just as capable of checking the weather report as her. It’s lazy planning.

But it depends on what’s important to you. One of the biggest reasons I left my ex was because he left all the planning and romance to me. I don’t think he planned a single thing let alone date for the entire relationship. At this point I’d rather date myself than let another guy put all the relationship/emotional effort on me.

Woman Learns To Never Talk To A Man With A Ring On His Finger The Hard Way
Woman Learns To Never Talk To A Man With A Ring On His Finger The Hard Way

Sorry, but wtf? Her conclusion is that she will not talk to married men?? I get the wife is angry at being left with two kids while he doesn't work, but that is a HIM issue, not OP's. Imo, everyone* is allowed to talk** to everyone*. (*Strangers, **chit chat).

Literally walked out of a restaurant last week when we were informed we had to scan the menu, which required providing personal information, and then, in addition, you had to place your order from their app. Bye.

Used to work at Tims... I can almost guarantee this was done upon customer request. You can ask to have the bagel double or triple toasted. I actually served a couple like this myself upon request. Person probably asked for triple toasted without realizing it would nuke the bagel and then complained about it.
