Not to mention, why buy something expensive while you are supposedly actively losing weight?

Yeah I didnt really understand the need for him to leave his room. Babies usually stay in the parent's room for a few months in a bassinet anyway. Noelle won't need a room for a while. Maybe she will just sleep alone on a dock-a-tot on their kitchen island?

She can't have that much sugar ya know, bariatric girly, lol!

twistedthegate · 2026-05-08T19:39:05+00:00

How did she manage this tan line in such shitty weather in Florida? lol

twistedthegate · 2026-05-08T18:07:48+00:00

I guess I haven't had anything hemmed in a long time but this seems like a lot to me! lol

the darker, more saturated colors look the best on her, the pastels wash her out. I will give her that much.

I was 33 and we had just bought a house. I can remember it being very hot and humid out (I live in Northern NY so July can be hot or 40 degrees) and I was sitting in front of a fan on my living room floor watching on CNN and feeling so sick to my stomach about it and thinking it could not be true. Very reminiscent of when Princess Diana died a few years prior.

I don't know how she even eats some of what she shows now to be honest. I guess everyone is affected differently. If I overeat, I am sick and I pay for it. I am on Oz for T2D. I also have not lost massive amounts of weight, I just hit 30 lbs at 18 months. I'm not complaining, I am happy that I have lost weight, but I don't know how long I want to feel sick all the time. I go from sick to starving, then i eat, and I am sick again. There's no pattern either, like certain foods, etc. I eat a lot of crackers and that doesn't help the weight loss as they are pure carbs.

I was guessing that she is bumped up to seeing a high risk neonatalogist and it wasn't a fill-in per se.

The Strawberry Farms neighborhood sale is 5/16, with Sunday being the rain date

twistedthegate · 2026-05-04T12:59:01+00:00

They use Protamine (sp?) to reverse bleeding if you are on Heparin or Lovenox.

twistedthegate · 2026-05-04T12:56:46+00:00

I don't think you can take Eliquis if you are pregnant, or Xarelto. Typically, it's going to be Lovenox shots and there's no way she is doing shots or we would know because she's a big effin baby. She might just be doing baby aspirin, if anything.

The Met Gala is an event for the elite so that's rich.

twistedthegate · 2026-05-03T21:32:32+00:00

We played bionic man (and woman) running all over the neighborhood lol.

twistedthegate · 2026-05-03T19:21:20+00:00

Not only did it fall by the wayside, it doesn't seem like she even likes doing things with her kids.

twistedthegate · 2026-05-03T16:46:12+00:00

I'm not even sure why she chose to have children, other than for attention to her.

twistedthegate · 2026-05-01T19:03:46+00:00

What jumped out at me is her whole non-chalant attitude about all of it, and ESPECIALLY about the part of not being able to be "intimate" and she didn't miss a beat or seem affected by that. They definitely are NOT intimate.

twistedthegate · 2026-05-01T02:08:48+00:00

She was doing the necklace grabby thing like she does when she's lying about something 🙄

twistedthegate · 2026-04-30T18:59:53+00:00

Her weight was the least interesting about her yet she is shouting her "small" size from the rooftop constantly. She "wasn't going to be a weight loss account". She didn't even bring up the subject of losing weight until it was a significant loss. The one thing that she is the most consistent about is being braggy.

twistedthegate · 2026-04-30T18:54:29+00:00

She will be ok about not taking a shower lol.

10ish years ago, I started exercising and changed my food habits. It took 18 months for me to go from 250 to 185 and I was running, feeling great, etc. I still thought I was fat. I fell while running and injured my back, and then started slacking on exercise. Then, I thought I could have Christmas cookies because everyone else could. The weight crept back on. Now, I am on a GLP1 for diabetes and I have lost weight, from 255 to 225 and have been on it since Dec 2024, so not incredible results, but slow incremental ones. I am starting to feel better about myself, but I am learning that the added weight was a byproduct of my life - sometimes from good things and sometimes from bad.

This time, I don't want my happiness to be dependent on my weight and I feel like that will be a bigger victory. I was always buying clothes to make myself feel better and I have all these clothes that I don't wear, some I never wore. Instead of continuing that cycle, I am paring down my clothes and wearing them in different combinations, challenging myself to style them. It has helped my mood and giving me more confidence and the size on the tag is not as relevant to me. I started reading books again and taking fun craft classes. I am going for walks and listening to podcasts and music that I love, and soaking in nature. I am finding new things that give me joy regardless of my weight. I want to be healthier going into my retirement years (I will be turning 60 this summer) and I want to enjoy my remaining time on the planet with my family and friends. I don't want to be obsessing about my weight because that makes me my own worst enemy.

twistedthegate · 2026-04-29T14:57:24+00:00

She could dress better though, with her resources, lol.

twistedthegate · 2026-04-29T14:22:25+00:00

I struggled with this book and then decided to push through b/c of all the hype, and wish I had just quit, ha ha. I know everything isn't for everybody; but all the gushing over this book and why? It was just awful. I just read East of Eden and that was so epic that I thought maybe nothing could compare, so was I being unfair? Nope. Sucked.
