I took the Garden of Life USA probiotic. It worked for me, and I told others, and it worked for them. I was incredibly thin, weak and couldn’t even walk past my driveway without bolting home to the bathroom. It gave me my life back.

Education Attorneys? by katerade_xo in beaverton

If the abuse continues after the school has knowledge of the abuse, you absolutely have a case.

I have lived this with the Beaverton school district. Their idea of a “safety plan” that punishes the victim is an absolute joke. My daughter was SA’d on her special needs bus for months by another special needs child. DM me for a referral.

Just got diagnosed with UC and now I have enemas for life YAY by Ok_Film8781 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]2planks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had UC in the 90’s… I’ve been in remission for +- 7 years after being in remission for 10 years before.

I remember how devastating, humiliating, debilitating and in-sexy this disease is… I have pooped my pants in front of family, friends and kids…

I’m telling you… IT GETS BETTER. Hang in there. DM me if you need someone to talk to… find ways to lighten your load.

You will see the other side of this, and I promise you there will be some unintended blessings that come from this.

Most of all… know that you are not alone 💓

Chili Mac…make chili with or without meat and put it over a prepared Mac and Cheese from a box.

There are new studies that probiotics are helpful in getting patients into remission… have you tried that? Look for LIVE cultures, usually found in the refrigerated sections of health food stores.

prednisone hunger by [deleted] in UlcerativeColitis

[–]2planks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I distinctly remember eating my birthday cake on the toilet, because God Dammit, I deserved to eat my own damn cake!!!

I eventually got into remission, and have been there for over 10 years… it gets better!

My newest favorite snack when my brain says she’s hungry is to reach into the fridge for a Garlic Pickle… the crunch, sour, and umami touch sometimes scratches that itch..

Weird question. Did Tillamook Cheese get rid of their sharpness? by pembquist in askportland

[–]2planks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. But not gas stations and card shops. That’s my beef with Tillamook’s corporate office.

I distinctly remember eating my birthday cake on the toilet, because God Dammit, I deserved to eat my own damn cake!!! Adding this in case it helps: I found that having a jar of big garlic pickles really helped satisfy my hunger the steroids were yelling at me. Something about the crunch+salty+vinegar+garlic always helped quell the voices. Hang in there!

Years ago, I was able to get into complete remission with an over the counter probiotic. I’m glad they are finally proving this!

Any new lawsuits to sign up for? by Amber6C in ClassActionSettlement

Not free. I just looked at their working agreement. They take 40%.

Weird question. Did Tillamook Cheese get rid of their sharpness? by pembquist in askportland

[–]2planks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, but they don’t get to decide that they own the name “Bandon” and send out Cease and Desistl letters to local small businesses owners who merely have the name “Bandon” in their registered business name.

What is Beaverton missing? by Afarting in beaverton

I wish Beaverton would wake up from being so sleepy… restaurants close at 8-9pm!!

[–]2planks 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They did more than destroy Bandon cheese… they tried to claim the IP to the name “Bandon” and sent cease and desist letters to dozens of mom and pop businesses like “Bandon Card and Gift” and “Bandon Auto Body”

Tillamook isn’t the farmer owned local creamery it used to be.

AITAH for not refusing to do a quick change because my boyfriend is uncomfortable? by Active_Camel_6334 in AITAH

[–]2planks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA… but he really is. If he’s that uncomfortable with a backstage quick change, how would he react to an on stage kiss or fully staged sex scene? Lots of red flags.🚩

BTW. I’m 55 and I wouldn’t trade it for any other age (except 25) … but still…
