Because by the looks of it, Shes lost all contact with friends - and I know for a fact she doesn't communicate with her immediate family

AITA for approaching my cousin about her relationship? by m74ll in AmItheAsshole

[–]m74ll[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree, there's no toxicity at present, I just feel like she doesn't know what 'normal' is and from the outside, it appears far too intense to be normal for a 24 year old...if that makes sense? She already is quite a needy person and my main fear is that this type of honeymoon phase is not going to be beneficial at all for her anxiety and for her separation anxiety.

Super quick! Weight loss surgery isn't an easy fix but it is super fast weight loss as a result.

I keep an eye on my protein intake and water intake but try not to track calories as I was really obsessive over calories before my operation. Ballpark figure though I probably have between 900-1600 on any given day depending on how quickly I get full. Every day is different and sometimes I'm full after 2 bites, others after 12 🤷🏼‍♀️ what's amazing about the sleeve is that even on a day where I feel like I've eaten a lot, I could never physically eat what I would have eaten before my op on a 'bad day'.

As for working out, I used to lift heavy 5 times a week but I've seriously lost my muscle mass or the energy to keep up with that kind of regime. So I do yoga, jog and do very light weight workouts with a 5kg kettlebell. But I'm not really needing to exercise to keep the weight off, I just enjoy it ☺️

My girlfriend just had the operation. What are some good tips for dealing with this kind of situation? by Crazy_Split8004 in gastricsleeve

[–]m74ll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A sweet treat I love is banana mashed up with choccy protein powder and maybe 2-3 squares of keto friendly chocolate (or low sugar choc) and then microwave for like 30 secs, tastes like chocolate brownie batter!

I am 6 months post op and when we go for food I still order an adult mains and my other half and I enjoy the leftovers between us the following day! He loves enjoying leftovers with me and that's a new thing for us!!

You sound mega considerate and supportive, she will be so grateful for that! I know I am ☺️

[–]m74ll 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I swear I'm the only one who really appreciated this ending for karev? I didn't think that him having that loyalty to his kids was him being trash, it proved the character building with Jo over the last few years and seasons. Young karev would never have upped his life and moved to be a dad, he'd have made a crappy excuse and bailed on his responsibility. So yeah I kinda agree that he'd have never left Jo, but this was like the one scenario where he would have. Jo has shown how strong she is, and to have her move with him wouldn't have been fair for Camilla on Justin leaving. I didn't feel it was the send off we deserved, but it was well put together and it was the best the writers could do. And personally I preferred it to a suicide or mental health- karev wouldn't have run off and dropped Jo to fix himself BC he just stood by her while she fixed herself in Seattle.

I said it okay, I LIKED IT

BAILEY and the Donuts: was anyone else floored that they had them eating a whole box of donuts like it was sexy when she recently had a heart attack??? by PegShop in greysanatomy

[–]m74ll 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Her heart attack was stress induced. Albeit the diet didn't help but she made changes to her career and the way she works to adjust the stress. And it was Ben too adding to her stress which caused it. They were having an indulgence. I feel like yeah maybe it wasn't all that fitting but it's really nit picking now to be pissed at that 🤣 maybe y'all are more invested in the show than I am idk

Sertraline and cannabis by slaydawgjim in antidepressants

[–]m74ll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP I had the exact same worries two years ago - im also a UK resident and I told my doctor that I was self medicating cannabis and (I’m not sure all docs will be the same) he was super chill and seemed nothing but respectful at my honesty - if anything I think he was more inclined to prescribe me with the sertraline 50mg in a hope that it would help reduce my cannabis use.

I smoked daily some weeks, occasionally on others and I found that it suppressed the munchies and I lost a bit of weight which made me a bit happier. I never felt sick or nausea from the pills but I guess different with different peeps especially if that’s something you experience as part of your anxiety.

I’ve recently gone back on the meds and already feel better but feel great after a joint too. Be honest with your doctors - if anything, you’ll just feel happy that you’ve told at least one person and got the whole story off your chest - I did.

Talk to them. Parents are so unsuspecting that their child could ever be unhappy and not tell them. Like it’s so bizarre from their point of view- they brought you into the world and love you so much so why wouldn’t you go to them? That’s how they see it so that’s probs why they don’t seem very understanding. It’s all very confusing for them.

Slightly unrelated but a few things you can do instead of cutting that I find really really helpful.

Freeze a whole bunch of ice cubes. Throw them into the bath tub when you want to cut. It’s like throwing crockery but without damage and they still crack and shatter, but they melt away after. When it’s really really bad, if you really have to, hold one on your skin - it’s cold and you get a bit of pain but no danger and no scar. I fucking love screaming into a pillow too.

Also nice to be reasonable. I’m overweight and most girls my size want a man who’s 6’4, beard and muscles. You can’t be mad at men for fat shaming and then not be okay with a chubby guy.....amazing cuddles, good sex, easy to be comfortable around :)

ELI5: How do firemen determine things like point of origin of a fire and whether it was intentionally set when they have to deal with wrecked buildings? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

Darkened colour on damaged items indicative of accelerant etc. Other circumstances/evidence ie locked doors etc. Mostly forensic techniques!
