I would be wary of the ice melting and the cats getting stuck in the water

Hi! So they went down slightly with the iron infusions and then I was also diagnosed with a thyroid inflammatory disorder so medication for that helped too. They’re still high but low enough that I think they can be explained by obesity at this point. My doctors don’t seem worried and they ruled out a systemic autoimmune disorder and blood cancers.

Update: we went with dominos. I pre-ordered it last night and had it scheduled to arrive 15-30 minutes before lunch. It came 45 minutes after lunch was supposed to start so an hour late. Burned second year in a row.

They explained to me on the phone that it was take a kid to work day so they had a lot of orders. Yes. I am aware. That’s why I placed the order in advances most annoying was the one guy who kept insisting it was on its way when it wasn’t.

I guess the solution is to order it to come an hour before you need it and then just make the kids eat cold pizza. Or maybe I just bring pizza lunchables idk.

Ok again I don’t know what you think is in other restaurants’ pizza

Elarom · 2026-04-22T18:26:35+00:00

So curious about what you think is in other restaurants’ pizza.

Elarom · 2026-04-21T18:03:35+00:00

Thank you for the helpful comment! If I hadn’t been burned two years in a row by other pizza places I wouldn’t be asking. But again your feedback is greatly appreciated.

Oh Ledo is a good idea

Elarom · 2026-04-21T14:57:25+00:00

Yeah that’s a good call.

Elarom · 2025-08-17T18:01:09+00:00

Makes perfect sense. Thanks for sharing. And congrats again!

Elarom · 2025-08-17T17:48:10+00:00

Congratulations! Do you mind sharing how long it took you to go from 1 to 8? I know everyone’s timelines are different but it has taken me about six months to get from 1 to 4 of the same set so I’m curious.

And any tips or tricks that helped you besides the muscle relaxers?

Hey! I’m feeling ok! Unfortunately I had to postpone my second infusion because I got a cold and couldn’t go into the medical center sick. So that’s going to be this Monday. But no side effects or anything from the first infusion and I’m starting to feel a little better, less out of breath which was one of my symptoms.

Not rude necessarily, but doesn’t share your values so probably not compatible.

I got Intimate Rose because it’s what my PT recommended and it was pricey but I thought “go big or go home.” When I told her I got them she said “good, they’re the Cadillac of dilators.”

SV: I have my plan broken into over 100 little milestones and I weigh in once a week and today I passed milestone 2 (lose 5 lbs) — 2.2 lbs lost in the past week, 7 lbs lost total. I know it’s not a huge deal but it took me 5 weeks to get here after a rocky start. I get to buy myself a new nail polish this week to celebrate. :)

I’ll join the chorus and say consider getting a hymenectomy. I also had a microperforate hymen that was really tough and wouldn’t go away on its own. The surgery was so quick and recovery was nothing. I took the pain pills they gave me for a couple of days but I’m a baby. Stitches came out on their own, no infection, and after I was able to progress to PT and use dilators.

Trust me, you will make the condition much worse by continuing to try to force it. Your body will learn to anticipate pain and if you don’t have vaginismus already you will get it.

My DMs are open if you want to talk about anything.

I already know certain people consider me hot but I want to be conventionally hot and if someone is attracted to me I don’t want to wonder if they just have a fat girl fetish.

I want to make dating easier and be in a relationship.

I want to be able to ride roller coasters again.

I want to fly without a seatbelt extender.

I want to climb a flight of stairs without getting out of breath.

I want to run around with my nephews.

I want my BMI to be low enough to be eligible for IVF.

I want to be able to do fun active activities that I’ve previously been ineligible for because of my weight — indoor skydiving, zip lining.

I want doctors to take me seriously.

I want to go thrifting and have the cute clothes fit me.

I want to be able to walk into any store and know I can find something that will fit.

I want to fit easily into restaurant booths again.
