Highlights from this day

hydrate_hana — i asked one relative to stop commenting. it was awkward for a week and it was worth it, your mileage will differ 16:43
bolus_bo — update from 18 months ago: the flatness lifted, slowly, and i did not have to change anything to make it 17:45
rotterdam_recon — feeling more emotional generally came up for me too and i took that to my gp rather than to a channel 18:40

the fraud feeling faded for me somewhere around the point i had kept it off longer than i took to lose it

it does lift

i told my family at month four rather than week one, and the timing is what made it go well

does anyone else find compliments make them want to hide

thats grief honestly

i measured my waist and my walking pace during the plateau because both were still moving when the scale wasnt

how do you stop reading every twinge as something serious

the escalation nerves got smaller each time for me but they never went away entirely

the quiet is strange isnt it

is anyone else more anxious about running out than about any side effect

is it normal to feel more emotional generally on this

feeling more emotional generally came up for me too and i took that to my gp rather than to a channel

hold on if you can
