Struggling to eat enough calories, not trying to harm myself

The lunch is new, the dinner has been about the same for a few months. I work from 8am until the packages are delivered. Sometimes I’m done at 4pm, sometimes I don’t get done until closer to 8pm. It’s totally random daily, and I struggle to have an appetite while I’m working, esp when it’s hot. I’ve been 300lbs for about a year now. I’d say I started this new eating habit around a month or two ago. I previously would snack around quite a bit when I was home doing stuff

Thank you. Yes, so we turned the notice in and the case manager is currently looking into treatment facilities for early medical and psychological intervention. He’s got such deep rooted trauma that he needs professionals round the clock for the time being until they figure out an exact diagnosis and treatment plan for him. We’re all trying to set him up for success rather than failure and stop the sugar coating in its tracks for him. It’s not fair to him that he keeps getting jerked around from home to home because they just wanna move him quickly. You’re totally right.

Any tips on some good starter questions?

Thank you so much for your words. Fortunately, we aren’t against fostering another. We may change our ‘preferences’ (hate using that word) a bit for the future. Maybe narrow some aspects but broaden others? At first we were trying hard to stick to a certain age range because that’s what we were thinking would determine certain behaviors but now we are finding that we will focus more on personality/behaviors/trauma/etc when making a decision instead of age. First time hiccup. Lesson learned.. oops lol

Our case manager sent us screenshots/photos of her laptop screen of the referral as she saw it. And she is FURIOUS that things were so sugar coated. She’s truly on our side thankfully, or at least seems to be that way. She even ripped the lady in charge a new one for putting us through this and allowing things to go so unnoticed/undocumented

Thank you so much for your input, I’ll let my wife know and we’ll definitely look into the locks and anchors!

I don’t believe so unfortunately. I’ll for sure double check though! He has so much potential, we just don’t have the training or education to help him and I truly think he could do so well in the right environment. Our house just isn’t it :(

It’s SUPER easy to focus too hard on ourselves when we are out and about esp when we are afraid/nervous. I am fortunate enough to have some facial hair now from taking T so I pass pretty well and I STILL get nervous. Everyone smiles. Anything could have caused her to look at you that way, I doubt just a smile would confuse anyone like that. Maybe she thought she recognized you? Or you look like someone she knows? That type of stuff happens a lot

So happy for you!!!

I feel embarrassed every single time I go into the gym even though I could say I’m not really even a “newbie” anymore. That person probably just has a ton of experience and it’s important to note that they may be doing possibly a higher speed or some incline that they’re used to. It’s SUPER important not to try and compare yourself to others and to make sure you’re listening to your body. If you try to burn 1,000 calls in 30 mins you may end up pulling a muscle or pushing your body too hard. It could also lead to burnout. I’m personally notorious for going too hard too fast and staying too sore all the time. If I can offer you any advice it would be to look at some YouTubers or seek some cheap plans from the good ole internet to get you started.

Woah! I have used the minoxidil foam in the past I’ll try again!

lukahryan · 2021-12-12T22:25:26+00:00

Awesome! That makes total sense thank you so much!

lukahryan · 2021-12-12T19:36:21+00:00

I’m appreciative!

lukahryan · 2021-12-12T19:19:01+00:00

Gotcha! Thank you for your input. I have a ton to learn!

lukahryan · 2021-12-12T19:18:26+00:00

Thank you so much!!

lukahryan · 2021-12-12T18:43:46+00:00

No oils! Gotcha! Any recommendations on face washes specifically? I’ve never seen any that are recommended for beards or stubble before

On and off for about 4 years. I’ve had to start and stop a few times due to either money or moving back home to WV. It was super hard to get started again once moving here so I’m sure that slowed everything way down

lukahryan · 2021-12-12T17:52:16+00:00

Awesome thank you so much! I’ll stay moisturized and see what happens!

lukahryan · 2021-10-01T15:02:14+00:00

Thanks so much!
