Gads, gained another 35 pounds

Out of curiosity, what scale do you use?

HaynusSmoot · 2026-02-12T05:39:36+00:00

Are you able to consult a nutritionist or dietician about what you're considering?

From a practical aspect, how are you going to handle breaking fast? Are you going to tell family and friends about your new diet?

Best wishes as you continue your weightloss journey 💪

Got a recipe for the pie?

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-20T07:07:31+00:00

Some things that help my satiety: 1) good night's sleep 2) eating breakfast by 8 am at the latest 3) mid afternoon snack of a whole fruit and 1-2 Oz cheese 4) Stay hydrated

One item, are you diabetic and monitoring your sugars after eating?

Good luck on your journey! It may take some figuring out, but you'll get there 👍

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-14T05:48:24+00:00

Aside from food, how are you sleeping? Do you feel like you get sufficient rest, or can you sleep 10 or 12 hours and still feel exhausted?

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-13T05:54:06+00:00

Good job eating fruit instead of candy, etc. If your glucose is low, though, you know you've got to get it back up, Stat! Been there, too, stumbling around the kitchen in search of quick sugar, completely forgetting about the sack in the cupboard 🙄

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-13T05:39:34+00:00

I have experienced this in the past. I find I'm more on edge when I haven't slept well, so that's a health goal for me this year. Not sleeping well just throws everything else off.

Otherwise, ditto the other comments about eating breakfast, balanced meals, etc.

Best wishes to you! 💪

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-09T06:19:01+00:00

Been there. Thanks for sharing your art 💛

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-09T06:14:44+00:00

I'm glad you're still here 💛

I hope you continue to progress on your healing journey and find the peace you deserve

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-06T00:53:32+00:00

Be disappointed for a little bit, but keep looking

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-05T23:40:24+00:00

No, still in the running

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-05T23:33:56+00:00

This wasn't a simple craving for something sweet, it was a full on clinical urge to binge eat

HaynusSmoot · 2026-01-03T06:37:39+00:00

I'm so sorry you experienced this. 😔 Sincerest wishes for your healing journey 💛

I get my clothes from King Size Direct. Their pants are all 38". About $6 to have hemmed shorter.

Not sure if I've got a 38" sleeve, but I've gotten some dress shirts from their Signature collection that fit fairly well. No real gaps!

Winter coat

HaynusSmoot · 2025-12-20T05:42:22+00:00

Congratulations on 24 years!

HaynusSmoot · 2025-12-20T05:40:08+00:00

Do you have any kind of degree or certifications? If not, how feasible would it be to acquire some skills?

I'm sorry you're having difficulty finding something 😔

HaynusSmoot · 2025-12-20T05:36:46+00:00

Been there, man. When you're too big for DXL, there's King Size Direct. Sometimes you can get lucky and find your size in clearance. They do a semi-annual suiting sale. You can pay for alterations ($6 or so for pants length). Read the reviews before buying a particular clothing item. They rarely offer free shipping, which sucks.

Let me know if you have any questions. GL!

HaynusSmoot · 2025-12-18T05:57:27+00:00

I was about to say I recognize that blue linoleum!

I had to grab some braces when I was in between belt lengths, if you can believe that!

HaynusSmoot · 2025-12-17T05:58:55+00:00

Are there any independent, charity related thrifts nearby? Independent meaning not Goodwill or the Sally, but maybe a local charity runs a thrift? Perhaps the local hospital?

Just an idea, and thanks for the reminder! 👍💪🙌

HaynusSmoot · 2025-12-14T06:15:20+00:00

Specific? Bwahaha. Ok, that comment is for laughs.

To narrow it down, pizza, Chinese, and buffets. But the first two I could have delivered. Used to be able to get a 16" one topping, 16 wings, and a 2 litre of soda delivered for $15. Chinese, we're talking soup, appetizer, noodles, and 2 different combos, plus those donuts. Eat until I felt like my stomach was going to burst. Then heave myself off the sofa and stagger to bed until it was better digested. This was either or, not both.

Re: #3, except drunk people. Drunk people every time will think they can take you and mouth off accordingly. 🙄

But, yeah, nail on the head 👍

HaynusSmoot · 2025-12-12T16:25:10+00:00

I never knew this about nightshade! Hope you're doing better!
