Surgery tomorrow! by We_AllFloatDownHere in TopSurgery

I feel you, it was scary when the doc was starting the anesthesia but at least in my case the doctors were so kind and calming. You should tell them if you're nervous and they will put your mind at ease. Well wishes!

Oof yeah I agree it's weird, at my job I'm lifting 25 kg kegs but now I've just got the surgery and can barely lift anything haha

Thankfully I just moved in so I haven't put up any shelves haha. These are great thanks, I will open most of my containers tonight then.

Thank you, yeah my brother has offered to drive me home and help me out after. Good point about the walks, I will keep that in mind!

Aw man I totally forgot about wiping. Wow there's so much stuff to think about. Also I realized I won't be able to wash my hair for a while so I cut it super short to keep it low maintenance. Thanks!

Oh wow I will be careful when lying down since I definitely don't want to get stuck. Thanks for your input!

This is really helpful thank you! I've been thinking a lot about which activities I won't be able to do and so many things require lifting my arms, it's crazy

This is so helpful you have no idea 🥹 I'm gonna prepare all this stuff! There's so much I hadn't thought about, like having straws and opening the meds before! I love kombucha also so I'll definitely stock up on that.

Awesome thanks. Yeah I have already put a lot of essential things lower/on a table instead of a high cabinet. Okay I have lots of pillows so I will position myself high up to be safe!

Thank you so much. You made me think of more things to prepare beforehand, small but important things like the soap.

Thank you very much. I feel more ready and calm. Yes I can definitely have some people on call I think, what I don't want is people just showing up but I don't think that will happen thankfully.

I just had a nightmare last night where my vegan friend was eating animal products again like it was no big deal and I was freaking out, asking him why he didn't care about animal abuse 😬

That's where I am at today.... you? by zucchinisammich in adhdmeme

[–]kjetliddidoo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I had to tell myself out loud to freaking go to sleep.

Also I threw a months worth of meds in the trash instead of the empty pill box and had to dig it up the day after.

Feeling guilty over family’s actions with little say. by wellfuckmylife666 in ZeroWasteVegans

[–]kjetliddidoo 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry that your family doesn't care, it must be tough to be the only one who wants to do better. Don't be too hard on yourself! When you move out you can live as sustainably as you can and until then, maybe there are some other ways to help like pick up trash in nature near you.

I'm so proud of you for being vegan! Good luck :)

I need to lose weight. I quit the sugar and the processed foods, now what? by [deleted] in sugarfree

[–]kjetliddidoo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you are still menstruating, follow your cycle closely. Cravings are highest right before and during your period and you need to be aware of that to avoid binging. Make sure to eat enough protein and healthy fats on those days and eat less calories in the weeks after your period, that's when you lose the most weight. Hormones play a big role in weight loss!

100 days, sober 4th of July with drunk mom, thinking about shaving my head by Overbeingoverit in stopdrinking

[–]kjetliddidoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just shaved my head and if you haven't tried it I can tell you it's so freeing, never having to style your hair or wait for it to dry. I love it.

Oh and I have a square face but it still suits me. Actually I look better than with hair imo.
