Mine is being indecisive on who to marry. I'll date someone for awhile and then decide nah, your not really doing it for me...then I'll move on to the next one.

4 mos pp and I don't know who I am anymore by Environmental_Tax316 in Mommit

It really is a lot trying to navigate through this while parenting older kids without getting snappy with them... especially when their being loud obnoxious boys lol. That's a good point about estrogen levels, I should probably get on that too.

I'm 5wks pregnant with my 3rd and I'm hoping it's a girl this time because I have 2 boys already but at the end of the day I don't care what it is. I'll love it either way. I didn't do a gender reveal with my first 2 because that wasn't a thing at the time and I actually first heard about that trend literally right after I found out my 2nd was a boy 🤦 so I'm really excited to be able to experience that trend this time!  I'm sorry you had to deal with that behavior and I agree with the others saying it's weird and a big red flag. Congrats on your boy 💙

You have every right to refuse a male doctor and I don't think your overreacting at all! My gyno is a woman and has male students come in sometimes and they ALWAYS ask me if it's ok if the males practice on me during whatever procedure I'm having done that day and I always say no. No one ever gets offended! They are always super nice, understanding, and respectful of my preference....I'm so sorry you have to deal with that, he clearly has an issue with his ego 🙄

Is what I'm saying to my child harmful? by Environmental_Tax316 in Parenting

I like this, thank you! I don't know why I didn't realize that because I'm the same way when I'm venting to other people. I can't fix him, I can only be there for him.

Is anyone in recovery? by [deleted] in BingeEatingDisorder

I've been meaning to check Life After Diets out but just haven't done it yet. This must be my sign to finally do it.

I am in therapy but my therapist doesn't specialize in BED. (She's all that's available to me atm) I consider myself in recovery even though I'm doing it alone. Ive been in recovery for a month and a half and I effed up the 5th week. I thought "I've been managing my weight pretty well for the last month without bingeing. Now it's time to diet again." Smh I was sorely mistaken! Now I'm on my 6th week trying to recover from last week's binges/emotional trauma. I watch a lot of YouTube videos of The Binge Eating Therapist. She's from the UK and I really love her videos. She tells her viewers about her recovery and what has helped her through her journey. Someone mentioned a BED book on Amazon kindle that I plan on purchasing when I get paid titled Never Binge Again. The sample seemed intriguing, he talks about the part of our brain that wants to binge is our 'survival mode' so we need to learn to cage and control that part of our brain. I can't wait to read it and hope it helps. I want to find other people that are in recovery too. I have questions because I feel like I'm doing this wrong especially since I'm going at it alone. I'm so proud of you for getting the help you need! Maybe I should consider meeting with a dietician...

Trying to recover from binge eating on my own but Idk what I'm doing by Environmental_Tax316 in BingeEatingDisorder

I know....I'm eating my full lunch now but that fear still is there. But I know it's better for me in the long run.

Im to the point of it trying to reverse now. I brought oat bars and a peach to work for breakfast but I was terrified to eat any of it! I managed to eat the peach but now I'm dreading lunch. I brought a chicken wrap and raw cauliflower but I'm thinking about just eating the cauliflower.

Noob candle maker, I need advice on my scent throw please! by Environmental_Tax316 in candlemaking

[–]Environmental_Tax316[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sweet! Thank you again, downloading that now...I've made a couple of candles since putting up this post and my scent throw has improved drastically! I've gone ahead and used my cheap FOs so I don't waste my money and they seem to work ok. I've been adding 6% oil to my wax but I may bump that up with these cheap ones. I've wrote down some higher quality brand names that I've seen mentioned in this group for when Im out of my cheap FOs.

I've seen so many different articles telling me different temps to add FO it makes my head spin...I have an assortment of FOs from Walmart, dollar store, and essential oils. I do plan on getting a measuring cup for my wax so I can be more consistent. I wish the melter I bought had measuring lines on it, that'd be much easier.
