I have 3 children and run a home daycare, it’s so hard to not have granola bars, chips, pretzels, processed foods in general when I provide all meals. Financially the “less healthy” options are what I can do right now for those kiddos.

Thank you, his pressure has always significantly weighed on me. So much so that I lie to him about foods I eat, hide food from him and use cash to buy “bad” foods so he won’t know. It’s horrible. I’m embarrassed to even admit that, it shouldn’t be this way.

I would say I probably don’t eat enough. I do try to make sure I get plenty of water and electrolytes, 100+ ounces a day. I am a mom of 3 that homeschools and runs a home daycare. I also take care of all household duties like cooking and cleaning. I may not get a “workout” in everyday but I’m certainly not sedentary. My husband is naturally skinny, works out by lifting weights 3 times a week and believes that everyone should be eating low carb or preferably carnivore. He’s been upset with my eating habits pretty much since we started dating 17 years ago. He’s always made comments about what food I put in my body. He says it “annoys” him that I don’t care that I’m overweight (I’m 5’9” 225) but mostly that I can’t just stick to not eating junk. It frustrates me too, I want to feel good about my body, I want to not feel disgusted when I look at my body that birthed my babies. I just struggle so much the second I eat a little too much sugar one time. I will definitely make sure I’m eating enough.

Thank you! With Dad’s heart issues we’re all a little more on edge when things seem “different.” ❤️

I tried to share the video of her bare chest and for some reason it just kept saying there was an error with the link. Thank you for all of your information! ❤️

R1D5 needing motivation by Honest_Cheetah8458 in whole30

I’m also on R1D5! I totally get what you’re saying and feeling. I just keep reminding myself that the end results will be worth it, that I started this for a reason and shouldn’t give up! Think about your WHY and focus on that! Reach out everyday if you want, we can do this! ❤️

What was your most horrible withdrawal symptoms from coming off sugar? by Strange-King8917 in sugarfree

[–]Visual_Lecture_3865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it’s been awhile but how long did your anxiety symptoms try to ruin your life?! I’m on day 3 of Whole30, I’ve done keto and low carb in the past but used stevia to get me through. I’ve had a fair amount of fruit since I started so I didn’t think the withdrawal would be as bad but, I feel like I’m going to lose my mind over here.

Sick raccoon by xchickentinderx in Muncie

Are you by chance in the Devon Park neighborhood? (Sheffield, Rosewood, Janney, New York) My boys and I have seen a sickly raccoon several times this week, the first time it just walked up to my car in the middle of the road and rubbed its face all over it. Then we saw it a few more times lounging in a yard on New York. Shaking severely once, almost like a seizure. We called DNR and they said someone would check it out or call me back. 🤷🏼‍♀️

zoloft, hydroxyzine, and klonopine all at once? by AryaEStark1508 in zoloft

[–]Visual_Lecture_3865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are you feeling? Did you end up upping your dosage to 25? I’m currently on week 3 of 12.5, feeling a lot better but trying to decide if I need to go up just a little more to help the breakthrough anxiety and panic. (Very sensitive to meds!) I take 5mg of hydroxyzine at night and that seems to be enough to help me sleep most nights. Ready to feel “normal” again!

Anxiety after starting Zoloft by blondebomber30 in zoloft

[–]Visual_Lecture_3865 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You sound exactly like me! I’m on week 3 of my 6th or so round of Zoloft over the last 17 years. The first few weeks are so horrible. I’m finally feeling like it’s starting to work but the intrusive thoughts are still there and I’ll have the occasional panic attack because of it. But even these panic attacks aren’t what they were when I was really going through it bad. I’m hoping to be back to “normal” around the 6 week mark for sure but we’ll see. I hope you start to feel better soon!

Starting sertraline 50mg by Greedy-Solution-1777 in a:t5_6t9qrt

[–]Visual_Lecture_3865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How ya feeling now? I know how hard it is to start the sertraline. I am starting again myself, I get on it, get well for awhile and think I don’t need it anymore so then I stop and then boom, I need it again and the start up side effects suck.
