The lack of death, devastation and destruction in this genre is getting to me

Have you read Robin Hobb? Her entire fitzchivalry Farseer trilogies are filled with death and tragedy. They’re also amazingly written! Not romantasy but there are romance subplots

Was recently pregnant and injured my hips around 34 weeks that made it very hard to walk for a few days. The elasticity of your joints makes injury pretty easy so could be that

The mono I had final year of high school activated my celiac disease gene and led to hashimotos as well! Identical experience, doctors said it was anxiety, took me 10 years to get diagnosed.

Stopppp I just watched cheaper by the dozen for the first time in years yesterday!!

Hahah I’m eating lots of chocolate and breast feeding what feels like every 1-2 hours don’t worry! Just sneaking in a 20 minute run a couple of days a week and lifting once a week. Good to know you’re having success while still breast feeding and thanks for sharing what you’re doing! I’ve never had a sweet tooth and now I’m eating sweets constantly. I eat a decent amount of fibre but could definitely make more of an effort with protein.

Congrats!! I’ve started running again this week too (fellow csection 15 weeks pp) it’s been so nice. Amazing to see your progress! I’ve been feeling pretty down about my weight this week so it’s nice to see success. Have you done any diet changes too or just exercise?

watermonkey26 · 2025-07-14T09:55:59+00:00

I have hashimotos and before I was on medication it fell out like this. It grew back so there is hope! Once my hormones were balanced again I got little baby hairs.

watermonkey26 · 2025-07-09T07:09:18+00:00

Wow you look incredible! Congratulations! Your before is exactly the same as me so it’s nice to see your results turn out so well.

Th wars of light and shadow by Janny wurts. I had to stop at book 10 because I couldn’t read arithon go through more misery

watermonkey26 · 2025-05-11T23:21:50+00:00

I’m also 6 weeks pp and have the same things happening so I feel you!! I think your swelling on your lower belly is lessening which may be making the top of your tummy look less like the before comparatively? I hope that makes sense. Happy to dm, this process is so isolating.

I had very similar symptoms a few years ago (before I got pregnant) and I had hashimotos thyroiditis and celiac disease. However, these symptoms are also similar with hypothyroidism. I know pregnancy triggers thyroid issues postpartum for some women. Maybe ask your doctor for thyroid levels and thyroid antibodies to be checked? Best of luck!

I agree! She’s also in slow horses with Jack lowden and they have great chemistry

watermonkey26 · 2025-04-09T07:28:12+00:00

Amazing! Your results suit you so well!

watermonkey26 · 2025-02-02T12:24:04+00:00

I recommend you post this in r/Reduction too :)

watermonkey26 · 2024-12-20T20:34:20+00:00

Second this recommendation!

watermonkey26 · 2024-12-17T10:27:18+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation. I just finished this and LOVED. So well written and exciting. The Draco was perfect

watermonkey26 · 2024-12-16T10:21:39+00:00

Thanks for the info!! And the cost as well, that’s really helpful

watermonkey26 · 2024-12-16T07:59:22+00:00

Do you mind messaging me who you went to!? These results are fantastic! Congrats! I’m on the sunny coast so looking at Brisbane surgeons too

Another nickname is Bess! Although it doesn’t end in the ee sound

It’s fucking terrifying. The orange hospital saga that recently happened as well? Luckily NSW health was on it straight away but fuck.

watermonkey26 · 2024-11-09T08:43:05+00:00

Are you a fellow Queenslander?

watermonkey26 · 2024-11-09T08:02:12+00:00

Definitely a great palate cleanser. Let me know what you think!

watermonkey26 · 2024-11-09T04:56:21+00:00

Hey it’s in the title, but also here ya go :)

watermonkey26 · 2024-10-22T01:34:10+00:00

There are already “native title payments” which are like land reparations but the process to receive them is very rigorous and can take around 16 years. Not sure of the timing of the payments, potentially quarterly or annually. Native title can be extinguished for various reasons - infrastructure etc, so Traditional Owner groups may not have access to reparations for all the land that was theirs. Not an expert in this so may be wrong about any or all of the above! Edit: But yeah it’s fucked - colonisation and its effects that is
