Being forced onto some b.s. 'weight management' thing via work health insurance. My rage knows no bounds. Am currently watching videos about things I already know because it's mandatory.

Sheesh. I'm unhealthy now and gained weight but I was 10 times more unhealthier when I was "skinny" in my 20s and 30s. They should do a weight management course on how to speed up your metabolism after 40 🤣🤣

They should let you duke it out...like they want you to do some weight management thing they have to best you in a fist fight. I've been "thin" and I've been healthy and these are two different things. Bring it when I'm big and bitchy let's play.

I am IN for this solution. They're lucky I'm in my chronic pain/disabled time of life, but I'm pretty sure that my rage will carry me.

When I have to do dumb shit like this, I run the video on one screen with no sound, take the tests when they come up, and get on with useful work in the meantime.

Around the time I was born my parents got into health food. By the time I was 8 they opened a health food store. My mom, blessed with ADHD before it was cool, fixated on nutrition as her Special Topic for about 20 years.

Now I'm watching a video on reading nutrition labels.

It is as elementary and step-by-step as one could make the reading of a nutrition label. Apparently they think I'm in middle school.

My poor husband is being subjected to the audio portions of the 'training' and he thinks they need a pre-test to see what our knowledge already is, and that would have been great. Pretty sure I could have tested out of this whole thing.

If they’d tested you in advance, maybe they’d get a clue. “Hey, she knows this. Maybe it’s not the answer.”

Oh fuck that noise. Tying healthcare to employment & then insisting on unrealistic, utterly bullshit "body standards" is the policy of ghouls who would be happy if people die.
