Eat your fiber!

I was so focused on tracking my protein for a while that I didn't really look at my fiber intake enough. Once I started making it mandatory to get 30g a day or more (go slow if you're not used to it!!), the weight has been coming off so much faster. I went from losing 3-4lbs a month to 10-12lbs a month!
I feel fuller for longer and have been eating fewer calories!

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk ;) I know a lot of you already do this, but if you're in a plateau or struggling to lose, it might be worth looking at!

Anyone know of any smaller, womens only book club in the area? I would love to make other adult friends and read together! Looking for something casual (hosted at cafes or member houses) - not really interested in library ones :)

I signed up for sermorlin via ageless and it's requiring me to do a video call with a doctor. Has anyone done this and what can I expect?

Hey hey!
Been on Tirzepatide for over a year and looking at adding Sermorlin. I'm interested in the muscle growth and the sleep benefits. I've been pretty reliant on OTC like melatonin and unisom for years (not happy about it but I started to live alone a few years ago and needed it to knock myself out). I am wondering if anyone else has also relied on other sleep meds and gotten off them with sermorlin use?
Also, anyone that gets sleep paralysis regularly use it? I have gotten sleep paralysis my whole life. Since losing weight, it has gone down significantly but I'm curious if the sermorlin might impact it.
Thanks!

Are there any other apps or sites that show every trail more extensively? I have a "management area" near me with quite an extensive trail system but a majority of the trails aren't mapped out on alltrails (it shows the dotted lines, so I've followed a ton; but it's nice to get a sense of difficulty/distance/elevation before going in).

Hello!
I've been a lifelong reader. I've read fantasy, but it's always been a genre I've been hit or miss with in the past. It's been tough for me to always focus on more complex fantasies (I have ADHD), but when I am locked in with them, I've REALLY enjoyed them.

This year, I've really began diving into more high/epic fanasy.

Is Brandon Sanderson really that good? I keep seeing him recommended over and over, especially for people new to fantasy. And do you *have* to read his books in a certain order? I read Mistborn and thought it was just okay. Didn't love the insta love and thought the story itself was just meh. I started the second book and lost focus right away and was rather bored with it. I read maybe 50 pages before I put it down, realizing I wasn't really retaining anything because my mind kept warndering, but I really don't want to give up on his books since so many people rave about them! Should I push through the Mistborn series or jump to something else?

Anyone ever get replies on Embark? My senior (soul) dog's littermate just popped up a month or so ago. I messaged twice, but it's been left unread. I had previously messaged another relative, which was also unread. Embark support basically told me that I'm out of luck because they don't alert people to messages. Their messaging system isn't intuitive, either (there's no 'new inbox' button on your home page).

I'm bummed. I would love to connect to a littermate! It's one of the reasons I wanted to do his DNA. I just think it'd be so cool to compare and see her personality, health, etc.
