For instance, someone who does glaucoma fellowship and works out in private practice but wants to still mainly do cataracts, premium IOLs, MIGS as their main surgeries with some days for tubes. And then dedicating 1 day purely for glaucoma clinic but have the other days be a mix of cataract evals, lens discussions, dry eyes, retina disease, etc.

Is it bad practice to be glaucoma trained but not dedicate a big portion of your practice to it?

Is it a waste of time to do glaucoma fellowship if you don't want to focus your OR days solely on glaucoma surgeries?

Fulton/WL would be a studio and paying $2500 total for parking and rent. Comes with an indoor garage parking lot and all the amenities like a gym and pool. I drive to most places but will take the bus to go downtown

Chinatown/Armour Square would be a 1bed/1bath and paying about $1800 total. Comes with outdoor parking or street parking only. No amenities or gym.

Overall difference is about $700 a month. Commute to work is at least 10-15 minutes longer from Chinatown/Armour Square.

Is the $700 monthly premium worth it to have indoor parking, more amenities, and living in the Fulton/West loop area?

I have an important event in the morning that starts at 7:00AM so I am planning to bring in pastries and coffee for about 3-4 people but none of the coffee shops or bakeries I've looked at are open that early. I was planning to get stuff from Metric coffee because I heard it's the best in town but they don't open til 7 AM.

Any alternative suggestions?

Been dieting and lifting weights 4x/week since February and I went from 164 to 155 and I feel stronger. However my physique is still pretty small. I see the most gains in my triceps but my chest and shoulders are still pretty lean.

I've been averaging ~1700 calories since Feb. and average of 120 grams of protein daily.

Should I increase my caloric intake and protein intake starting now or should I keep losing weight to get closer to that 145 mark for my height if my goal is to look more toned by the end of June?
