glad youre back
grieving food is real. it was my hobby, my comfort and about half of my social life, ill dig out the number
mood dipped hard around week 28, did that lift for anyone
please talk to somebody
youre not alone in that
Purity check: no report on file for lot B-0329. Nothing logged either way.
thats grief honestly
how do you stop reading every twinge as something serious
comments about my body were harder to take than any side effect and nobody warns you about it
the plateau nearly ended it for me. what got me through was logging something other than my weight
i cook more now than i used to, i just eat less of it, and that compromise saved that part of me
somebody said the easy way thing to me and i just said it was not easy and changed the subject. it worked fine
is it normal to feel more emotional generally on this
if all you managed today was the dose and some water, that counts and i mean that
if you are struggling in a way this channel cannot hold, please talk to a professional. we are not a crisis service and we know it, not advice obviously
i spent twenty years negotiating with myself about food and then the negotiation just stopped, and that took months to sit with
while im here feeling more emotional generally came up for me too and i took that to my gp rather than to a channel
the shame eased when i stopped thinking of it as a shortcut and started thinking of it as treatment
update from 10 months ago: the flatness lifted, slowly, and i did not have to change anything to make it
i read every twinge as something serious for the first three months and it does settle down
thank you for saying it
