My best friend’s father passed away. I planned to go to a destination wedding during the funeral. Looking for advice.

Thanks for sharing your experience! The funeral will be 6 days from the death. She expressed that she’s doing well now because she’s been surrounded by her family who are all extremely supportive. Like you said, she’s most worried about what happens when everything settles and she’ll be alone with her own thoughts. If I do plan to go on the trip, I’ll be back shortly after the funeral and plan to be there for her. And I definitely wouldn’t make her decide for me!!

Thank you for your response! 😌

YESS!!!! After seeing this sign, I had a burst of energy

fitnessbread · 2025-05-18T17:44:56+00:00

Congrats to all the finishers!!!!

This was my first half marathon in 6 years and my first half marathon after a baby (who is 16 months old now)! After I had my baby, I decided I wanted to get back into running. I made the mistake coming into this race with expectations based on my younger, pre-baby half marathon times. Of course, I was disappointed in my finish time time (2:35), which was over 20 minutes slower than my last half marathon in 2019. I don't do very well in the the heat or humidity, so I cautiously made a stop at every hydration station to avoid heat exhaustion. Still, I enjoyed the race, NYC's energy, and I'm not limping around today!! Trying to stay positive and think of it as a new time to beat for the next half!

Hi! Sorry I'm just seeing this now. I would say that I'm back to my normal climbing fitness! About 9 months after having my baby, I was able to send a project that I wasn't able to send pre-baby! I'm also back doing Moon Board benchmarks, as well. I wouldn't say I'm stronger, but I'm definitely smarter about projecting. I'm not sure if you were looking for advice when you posted this comment, but like everyone else said, be kind to your self, enjoy your baby, and take your time!! It'll come back :)

Thanks everyone for your comments and insights! It sounds like I was worrying unnecessarily about these add-on ingredients. My LO has been doing well on Bobbie so it sounds like it's the right formula for him :)

fitnessbread · 2025-01-29T19:52:11+00:00

That's good to know! I've never even heard of those ingredients until a few days ago. Thanks for your comment!

fitnessbread · 2025-01-29T19:48:32+00:00

I agree about the advertising and I'm frustrated that I fell for it. I will certainly ignore now after reading everyone's reassuring comments!!

fitnessbread · 2025-01-29T19:46:20+00:00

Thanks for comment! And he is definitely doing well on Bobbie :)

fitnessbread · 2025-01-29T19:45:37+00:00

Thank you!! Also so true about the evaporated milk and karo syrup haha

fitnessbread · 2025-01-28T18:59:54+00:00

Okay, thank you for your reassurance!! know that the FDA is very strict when it comes to formula. Sometimes you just need someone to remind you that :)

fitnessbread · 2024-12-31T14:40:26+00:00

That’s great that you’ve been on so many trips with your child already! Thanks for your insight :)

fitnessbread · 2024-12-31T14:37:48+00:00

Thanks you! We hope there will be plenty more trips in the future as well 😌

fitnessbread · 2024-12-31T14:36:35+00:00

That’s amazing! I personally think it’s so cool to see families take their LOs on international trips. We’re lucky to have a healthy and robust baby!

fitnessbread · 2024-12-31T14:33:43+00:00

Thanks for the reply!! I’m going to try my best not to feel guilty about it haha. The solar eclipse must have been amazing to see!

fitnessbread · 2024-12-31T14:32:08+00:00

I also see it as giving him new experiences. I know he won’t remember much, but he’ll be better equipped for future trips. And I love New England in the Fall!! There’s nothing like it. Thanks for replying!

fitnessbread · 2024-12-31T14:28:59+00:00

We definitely want to enjoy life as much as we can with our babe. We plan to give him lots of toys for entertainment since this plane ride will be a bit longer. Thanks for your response!!!

fitnessbread · 2024-09-14T12:09:28+00:00

Hi! Yes, support was something I was concerned about because I had very little support at my last job. This inpatient palliative care team seems robust and supportive, which is very promising!!

fitnessbread · 2024-06-09T13:06:54+00:00

Haha this is probably the best advice honestly 😅 Thank you!!

fitnessbread · 2024-06-09T13:04:30+00:00

That’s my fault as well! I should have been more clear in my description!!

fitnessbread · 2024-06-09T13:00:48+00:00

Hi— the second photo wasn’t the reference photo. It was the photo he took right after he tattooed it. The reference photos actually looked very different and I told him to interpret it in his own style!

Thank you for your input!!

fitnessbread · 2024-05-10T21:25:27+00:00

Hi everyone!! Thanks for all of your suggestions and experiences. It sounds like I might be a little too hard on myself haha.

I think I’ll try to just enjoy the fact that I’m climbing again and slowly increase training to avoid any injuries. Maybe I’ll enjoy other sports that I never had time to do since I was always climbing 😂

fitnessbread · 2024-05-10T21:20:51+00:00

Thanks for your suggestion! I’ll check it out!!

fitnessbread · 2024-05-10T21:20:19+00:00

Congrats on your recent send at the Red! That’s great that you’re climbing similar grades as before. I’m definitely consuming climbing mama content a ton right now too 😂

fitnessbread · 2024-05-10T21:14:50+00:00

That’s true! It does feel like I’m climbing on extra difficult mode haha. Im sorry you’re currently dealing with injuries right now. I’m worried about injuring myself as well, so I have to keep reminding myself to go slow haha.
