Do you plan on getting electrolysis?
I wanna lose weight too. I'm slightly overweight, so it's not major health wise, but I want that sweet sweet body fat redistribution. It's the main cause of my dysphoria. It's been a lot easier to exercise and eat healthy with someone else that lives with me than to do it alone. Way harder to get off track that way (I got off track after they left, rip).
I hope you can get a new job in a different state soon. What do you work in again?
Absolutely plan on electrolysis, got a place bookmarked locally i want to look into once ive got a credit card down more.
IT, thankfully. Can go pretty much anywhere with IT. Currently not the best job market I hear but once the AI craze dies down a bit I'm hopeful things will be more... available. Current job is as stable as it gets (fed), which is great for continuing to get paid, but they call it the "golden handcuffs" for a reason.
