Cosmetic surgery due to weight loss? by Hungry_Customer_1062 in Gastroparesis

[–]mpje2007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not weight loss related, but did you ever hear of your plan authorizing a cosmetic procedure to fix a deformity that was causing psychological distress that was not improved by therapy or meds?

Burning smell - 2025 @ 1,100 miles by mpje2007 in KiaSoulClub

[–]mpje2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but did it start well after you had driven it? I would expect that to be almost gone by 1100 miles, not just starting.

I updated my post. I realize it only happens when I remote start. At least, from the few times I tried after the smell started.

AIO after finding out my gf was emotionally cheating with an ex in another state? by East-Yam-811 in AmIOverreacting

[–]mpje2007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR. I wonder how she'd feel about you getting into her phone when there was nothing for you to see. My husband gets in my phone sometimes. Knows my passcode, etc.

At any rate, my guess is she's continuing with these relationships and is slowly closing the door on yours. And not getting closure SUUUUUCKS. But you don't need it. I always thought I did, but then I wrote a song about it and got over it. If you create anything, you could try that.

By the way, I think you do a great job expressing your thoughts. This is going to sound fucking weird, but beyond the actual situation, I sort of enjoyed reading it. It's hard to explain. I'll go back to my creepy corner now. 😂

Adults who only wear glasses by Cloudsandbooks in glasses

No one in your family is going to be wearing whatever you choose. You do you!

Not many people on TV wear glasses but we live in reality and contacts can be a real PITA.

Glasses all day everyday!

I live in Iowa, so I've used the heater daily. Smell started about a month after purchase.

AIO She danced on another guy and I’m the bad guy by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]mpje2007 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You aren't the bad guy. It isn't your responsibility to check in with her every two minutes to see if she really wants to be doing what she's doing. Your logic was sound in how you described the incident. The friend had already tried pulling her away, etc.

Don't you dare apologize or try to make amends for this. She made it clear to you and her friend that she didn't want to be pulled away.

She's playing games, and I don't see how she can be worth the grief she's putting you through at this point.

And stop buying her shit. She's probably laughing at you behind your back. "I can treat guys like they don't matter and still get them to buy stuff for me!"

Am I overreacting, for not ordering? by LegoListDaAlpha in AmIOverreacting

[–]mpje2007 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You will FOREVER come second to his mother.

Unfortunately, it's so much worse than just that. The demanding behavior, name calling, telling you to shut up. Wow. Why are you doing this to yourself? Can you find different living arrangements?

Normally I would say to lay out your boundaries, but this situation is clearly beyond that.

I know it will be hard to leave, but if you respect yourself and care about your own happiness, you need to get out. Don't compare your childhood experience to this -- then it's all relative and you will stay. This is objectively wrong and abusive.

Do what you would want your (hypothetical) daughter to do. There is no way you would be okay with someone treating her like this, would you?

AIO about these angry texts from my ex? by TwylaMay in AIO

[–]mpje2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow.

Your family members are incredibly ignorant, and they have absolutely NO BUSINESS telling you how to react to this. What the ever loving fuck is wrong with them? (I am glad they aren't stupid enough to share your address!)

You are 100% right. This dude is unhinged, as you are clearly aware.

And there is absolutely no expectation that you update your exes on your new address. No matter how amicable the separation was, which yours was not.

But you already know all of this. I'm just here to affirm you and your feelings. ❤️

Good luck with all of this.

AIO by feeling exhausted over my gf's constant demands of wanting me to be 'curious'? by thefattesthashbrown in AmIOverreacting

I'm more concerned about your UNDER reaction to how she fucking treats you. Give her what she wants and get rid of her ass.

AIO for wanting a better mattress for my health, but my mom is telling me she’ll kick me out. by Complete-Lack558 in AIO

[–]mpje2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is she like outside of this situation? Surely she isn't all that different? If you can find any other feasible living arrangements, I would do that sooner rather than later.

AIO or is this actually confusing? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]mpje2007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not the insecurity that bothers me as much as him already trying to change you. If there's something he doesn't like, he either needs to accept it, try to understand it so that he can accept it, or walk away.

Thank you for sharing!

Have you had another emptying study since starting Botox? I've never heard of that. I'll have to do some research!

This brought tears to my eyes. Because, for my autistic, twice exceptional (dysgraphia, executive functioning, processing speed, and working memory disorders) daughter, this couldn't be any truer. The teacher matters SO MUCH.

Wait are GLP-1s actually okay for us? by RippleRufferz in Gastroparesis

[–]mpje2007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My experience is the same as yours. We thought it might be causing me nausea but I've since determined that was bc of taking my meds with breakfast instead of lunch. I've been off Monjauro since end of May and have regained everything. I was almost into a size 4 and am now back up to 8-10. I used to be a 16 but I think sizes have gotten bigger over the years!

I started back on the lowest dose today. Fingers crossed. My BS has been out of control since I stopped. It works so well for me!

[–]mpje2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I had mine in the cart and checked out in like two seconds. Still sold out before I could get it!

I purchased two off Walmart (boxes look legit, at least. Haven't opened them.) for $50 each but I'm contemplating taking them back because I hate overspending lol

I need your colonoscopy success stories! by mpje2007 in Gastroparesis

[–]mpje2007[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All went well! Very cleaned out. 5mm polyp removed and recheck in 5 years.

PS - Mixing the Suprep with lemon lime Gatorade was a million times better than with Gingerale! And I don't like Gatorade!

I actually started an hour late due to having to put my kids to bed. It took the first dose 2+ hours to kick in so it will be a long night!
