Do not use Lowes and Home Depot they will overcharge you for everything and then send someone out on their first day trying to install. I used to do their repairs.

I know there are many factors involved…but let me present this option.

I was obese on BMI…short but muscular build threw it off. I have a few fat scars on my inner thighs. I’m early middle aged but was on the fast food and tastes great most anything out of the bag at the grocery store train for most of my life.

But I reached a point about a year ago where I had inadvertently cut out a lot of these things but also stumbled upon this video. Plant/seed/vegetable oils are in SO MANY things. I ate them most of my life. They even promote them on packaging.

But ya know I cut out 95% (sometimes it’s like the 14th ingredient by weight on a generally otherwise healthy meal…ok) but if I eat something with those oils in them now I feel like hell for hours. I walk past entires aisles and sections of the store I used to LOVE like it’s no problem.

It’s a great explainer for plant oils and why they are not just trash literally but kill people.

I had a friend in my early 20s who had the surgery. He did lose weight. I went from 4 meals a day of trash and kinda overweight to maybe 2 meals a day, knowing when too much is a thing and feeling bad if more, and also the hell of eating a meal heavy in plant oils.

I say this genuinely too, if your body slowly cuts back, your risk of skin issues becomes more natural and less surgery related for stretch marks.

I never saw myself here a year later but life is better and I have nothing to sell you other than my experience and my bodies ejection of literal trash poisoning people every day. For every plant oil based meal, there is a great recipe waiting on the other side that isn’t just healthy but filling.

I noticed by 3 months, had a great reckoning by 6 and my body hates that crap by 9. You can too.

Who is "they" in this comment?

Lololol I’ve never ever heard that joke before (about Mercy OR Nevada) Your username definitely checks out though.

eww. I have been in some odd places, hospital hill in kc where as a blind patient i did nothing but eat and sit there for five days. rolla where the same happened. they did not like that I wanted to stay in bed and sleep all day either. well the hell you want me to do give me something to do.

right? if you go to the main offices, you are good. but yeah. satalite offices no. I went to the booneville office once cause i was homeless there, and they shipped me back to columbia who was not helping me. I finally went to kc where I found an apartment.

Yeah, I haven't heard nothing good about marian. I just heard from a close friend cox north was great.

the only problem i have with mercy, I cant do the paperwork online. I have to have a sighted person help me. I don't like that. That drives me nuts. I cannot take most of the approved medicine because of medical problems I have. I need to do something. I have thought of the gastric sleeve. then I would not have my intestines rerouted. and my doctor says thats where i am at at this point. I a at that point of facing facts. but I have to figure out what I am going to do. I am over 200 pounds over weight. so I have to do something now not later.

The movie section is gone. It’s so much smaller. Ever since the make up store took up part of what Best Buy used to be it just sad.

Man…. I was there 2 days ago and was not impressed.

Bad take.

I mean, I hate that there is a culture that tries to convince people that getting up at 4am and taking cold showers is the key to success…

I liked it better when hustling was getting shit done as fast as you could because you wanted to.

Not because it’s a culture or way of life. Weird world, you guys.

God I’m so sorry for what you’ve gone through. I hope the best for you and your family

Been looking on and off for a few years and haven’t had great luck. I even reached out to the GLO Center multiple times but never heard back. If I come across anything, I’ll be sure to come back.

I made a vow to myself years ago to never to go there just because their commercials are terrible and now I know I made the right choice lmaoo

I know it used to be about $900 out of pocket at Building C and MAPS. But that may have gone up over the years.

I too hate it when people work hard to serve me.

Fuck hustle culture.

Worked there for about 2 years and it was the best place I've worked, great management and crew and lots of nostalgia for that place. Really sad to see it go.

Went to Scary Movie 4 with a buddy. Was god awful. We left and went to Harbells to continue our pregame drinking. Ended up spending way too much money drinking with a couple homeless guys. And then topped it off with some terrible decision making and got my only DUI in my driveway out of my car.

Glad I'm not drinking and being dumb anymore. But man, some memories down there.

Edit: Scary Movie 4, not 3. 3 is fucking great.

glad you enjoyed it. I've never been back since I saw my bbq cooked right up in the microwave. too many other good bbq places to go.

Skip it entirely, keep your digestive tract intact, and look into a GLP-1 like Mounjaro, Wegovy, or Ozempic (real FDA approved meds, not some MLM supplement.) DM me if you want more info. I've been on one since July and lost 23% of my starting weight.

You won’t be disappointed. They have a rather expansive vegan menu that includes starters and desserts! Cafe Cusco Menu

I just sent you a message. I own an operate a flooring company would love to help you out!

They are the worst. They don’t pay enough to have anyone of quality working there.

The assessment was incredibly thorough and I have no doubt it is actually legit. I recommend them on that alone.

My biggest complaint for treatment was it looked like they had a high provider turnover. I started the service right before I unexpectedly moved from another state and the doctor I had initially talked with isn't licensed in MO. I scheduled an appointment with someone here but had to schedule with someone else in the second month because the first was no longer available. In my experience at least, appointments had to be made on a monthly basis and my prescription was set to whatever my chosen pharmacy was to be filled so I was still paying for the medication itself as well.

I brought up ADHD treatment at a recent doctors appointment and am now having it managed through my PCP but I would have continued using ADHD Online had that not been an option.
