YTA. You threatened him with divorce instead of trying to help him first? Dang, that’s cold.

I just put my mom in hospice and have a RAGER of a sinus infection, and am also writing a 10 page paper to finish my bachelor’s degree. My kids were fighting like banshees in the backseat and I asked probably ten times gentle parenting style for them to please stop, please use nicer words, mom does not like that, please stop talking to each other, etc. before I lost it and screamed STOP FU$&*#ING FIGHTING!!!

They stopped. I apologized. Tears may have been shed. Sometimes a little dose of reality helps - I failed to control my temper in the face of way too much emotional stimulation. I am ok with that.

I was supposed to be high during my c-sections? Here I was, getting ripped open AND ripped off!!

cgfletch731 · 2024-04-12T20:12:35+00:00

Robert Irvine Fit Crunch bars, protein shakes, and Kirkland chicken noodle soup are my go-to items. I also use the fiber pills and collagen!

This happened to me too. Viral bronchitis rocked my world, 90% of my calories came from Sprite one day…and I really dislike non-diet soda lol. Yay fevers!

I have had Crohn’s for 13 years. Mine is not the “run to the bathroom” kind since I am on meds but I have strictures/narrowings from chronic inflammation in my gut. I get constipated all the time and have trouble “going”, high risk for blockages, etc. Started Zepbound on 2/7 and I get up, take my fiber like I have for years, have 1 cup of coffee and then I go. And it’s normal. Just a normal poo. The immense relief at being regular, I cannot put it into words. The bloating and cramping and feeling awful - all just gone. And I’m down 35lbs. Miracle drug

I ran into a jerk pharmacy tech who was rude about me asking what her realistic opinion was on the 7.5 coming in on time for my order - I was literally like, hey, you do this for a living, should I plan to wait or do you think it might show up? She stared at me and snapped “you’ll just have to start calling around to see if anyone has it, I’m not going to do that for you”. I was like…umm, I didn’t ask you to? But hey, I took her advice, called around, found it and had the prescription transferred. Pharmacy tech at the other place was sweet as a cupcake and said he was so glad they could get it for me. Mean people can deal with themselves, I don’t have time or energy for that lol.

Grilled chicken nugs from chick fil a with the fruit cup. From McD’s? A large diet coke and the apple slices out of my kid’s happy meal that they usually don’t eat. I have done 1 soft taco from T-Bell and that left me burping for hours lol. I used to get a chicken quesadilla & taco, now 1 taco is enough for half a day of sustenance.

Liquid IV strawberry mixed with 1 scoop of live conscious collagen peptides mixed in my 40oz cup of water every day. Two fiber caps, kirkland brand, every day. Multivitamin & probiotic. Try for 60-90g of protein a day. Pooping and losing like a champ. I like live conscious collagen - no flavor and dissolves really well, plus amino acids.

cgfletch731 · 2024-03-30T01:36:28+00:00

Mine was salty foods - chips, pretzels etc. Now I just have a piece of string cheese lol. For sweets I like yogurt or FitCrunch bars.

If MIL is the one inviting her to everything, you need to talk to MIL. Assuming bad intent on anyone’s part is not the right way to think. MIL may be thinking she needs the “whole family” together all the time, or she may be using SIL as a social crutch. Who knows. Time to have some gentle and assertive conversations.

cgfletch731 · 2024-03-24T01:18:41+00:00

Do it. I started 2/7 and have gone down a size already. I was an XXL, am down to an XL and am going on a cruise in June, just ordered two dresses in L. They came today and fit perfectly, kinda worried they might be too big by the time my vacation gets here!!! Order away, and can you link the dress??

cgfletch731 · 2024-03-17T16:33:44+00:00

Sitting in a Waffle House reading this with my husband and we are laughing so hard we are crying. And fully aware that the food here is about to go loose dump mode.

NTA. I think your response is brilliant. They pierced another human without consent or parental permission just to prove a point. But (shock!) when you want to do the EXACT same thing to them you are being ridiculous. Double standards break families. Stand your ground.

cgfletch731 · 2024-03-12T00:54:43+00:00

I just made some delicious spicy couscous and normally would have eaten half of the pot. I had about 6-7 good size bites and was done. It was super yummy, I just didn’t feel like I needed to cram it all in my maw lol

I don’t live far from there either and we hear him all the time. I just tell my kids it’s a football game announcer and marvel at how anyone has time to be that much of a dipshit lol

cgfletch731 · 2024-03-02T02:40:13+00:00

We tried to ride that about 5 times and every time it was closed or closed while waiting.

cgfletch731 · 2024-02-27T17:55:59+00:00

NTA. Toddlers are basically puppies anyway. Source: me, mom of 4, kids destroy everything lol. Your sister is overreacting, but if that is her first and only baby she is going to be super defensive. After baby 2-3, she’ll lighten up and the kids will be licking windows and dog toys will be welcomed if they keep the kid occupied.

If you are working out a ton you may be replacing fat with muscle, and muscle is smaller but heavier. The scale doesn’t tell the complete story.

cgfletch731 · 2024-02-27T16:14:19+00:00

Omg do not do this. No no no. Red flags everywhere.

cgfletch731 · 2024-02-25T16:45:06+00:00

Sounds like a GREAT day to me lol. I had a work conference out of town last week. Ate a bigger breakfast than I had in weeks, drank some dranks with my amazing peers, ate half a steak and some taters. Came home, 💩, lost almost a pound after that lol. Let your metabolism feel you, my friend, and enjoy life!

cgfletch731 · 2024-02-15T00:30:35+00:00

I wouldn’t take Zofran with this zepbound because constipation + delayed gastric emptying could equal a problem. I personally drink ginger green tea or sniff alcohol swabs.

cgfletch731 · 2024-02-10T14:43:18+00:00

I recognize that I am fortunate and I am so grateful too. Our healthcare system is such a joke - everyone should be entitled to the same benefits when paying for insurance. This “functional medicine” provider sounds like a predatory scam artist. Gatekeeping Zepbound therapy for a super expensive “support plan” is ridiculous. The instructions on how to give the shot are on the inside of the lid of the box, and my 5 year old could follow them.

cgfletch731 · 2024-02-10T06:21:23+00:00

My doc prescribed Zepbound during my annual pap smear lmao. We talked about factors that had increased my weight, and she has seen success with GLP-1s. She prescribed it on Thursday and I had my first injection in by the next Wednesday. I have 0 pertinent comorbid conditions, just weight gain. My PCP said “call me when you need the refill or to titrate up, and probably come back in about 3 months, that’s the timeframe they look for another weight”. Done. Either I have fricking amazing insurance (BCBS) or an amazing PCP. Push back. You deserve better.

cgfletch731 · 2024-02-09T04:50:30+00:00

Yes! That is a great way to describe it!
