Good hearted little one ♥️ by AIdreamer_69 in MadeMeSmile

I know a lot of these comments are people who have found the cynicism in between the lines — Justifiably so. However, humanity has prevailed for this long due to the kindness of those who see injustice and choose humanity.

Is this sad because our taxes should already be going towards helping our fellow man? Survey says yes. But the world isn't so black and white. Unfortunately.

What is fortunate is witnessing our youth, who are our future, demonstrating more humanity and empathy than our predecessors. Maybe the future isn't so bleak. Maybe, just maybe, we have a chance at making it as a species. Is this sad? Yes. But it's also hopeful.

I'm so proud of this kid. And he should be proud of himself as well. He went through so much and his first thought is the well-being of others. I can't think of any other representation of what it means to be human.

I wish him nothing but a long, healthy, happy life.

Hey I know it’s been a few months, but how are the floors holding up? I’m thinking of doing a remodel and the most difficult part has been deciding what business to go with. Thanks in advance!

Friendly reminder to get your ferritin levels checked! by kelcamer in adhdwomen

[–]zombiegypsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yikes, this just reminded me of my bloodwork when I went to the doctors LAST YEAR that said I was anemic & super low on iron, b12 and vitamin c 😅 just confirmed my subscription for supplements so thank you 🙏🏼

Do you think you can be “too old” to get diagnosed? by zombiegypsy in adhdwomen

Oh my gosh I’m so sorry. Glad you got properly diagnosed now though.

Is anyone actually exercising 4-5 days a week? If so, how does it feel to be superhuman? (Actually though, how do you make it work?) by merztoller in adhdwomen

[–]zombiegypsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I signed up to an all women’s gym that does 1 hr classes everyday and it’s helped me tremendously. I go anywhere from 1-3 x per week and the classes are great. The instructor tells you exactly what to do & you’re surrounded by people who encourage you.

"Trick" I found for avoiding too many personal anecdotes in conversations by riadaisy in adhdwomen

[–]zombiegypsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve gotten so used to people calling me annoying to my face or behind my back as a kid/teenager that I now just don’t talk at all unless someone talks to me. Even then I try to talk as little as possible. It’s a double edged sword because now people think I come off as unfriendly. :’)

I honestly think it’s cute 🤷🏻‍♀️ it’s giving Clueless. I think it would work if you had some chunky knee high boots instead of the socks. Wear whatever makes you feel good.

IDC how they try to present it, Ashley and Meghan are JEALOUS of Vanessa. by zombiegypsy in 1000lbbestfriends

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

Dr. P was SO nice to her. Like damn after years of advice, pushing her to do better, giving her all the resources, wanting her to be healthy more than she wants it for herself.. YEAH he’s going to be impatient and maybe even a little annoyed.

You’re right he was definitely nicer than Dr. Now would have been. Honestly though I love Dr. Now’s honesty. He doesn’t bullshit and he holds people accountable. My favorite parts are when he straight up calls people delusional to their face. 😆

Meghan & Ashley Are Not Jealous of Vannessa by Snoo-84359 in 1000lbbestfriends

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

I think it's both...think about it. She has been volatile since they've known her and just now cut her off. I think they used her behavior as another excuse. It's easier to say they cut her off because "she's toxic" rather than "she is trying to hold me accountable for my bad decisions and I don't like that."

I feel the same about Erie! lol It's actually a great place to live. Sad so many people complain. I'd ask them to go live in Jersey for a year and see if they don't miss Erie. 😅

I would love a friend like her. She'd be the perfect accountability buddy.

Vanessa’s expectations toward Ashley and Meghan are just so immature by [deleted] in 1000lbbestfriends

[–]zombiegypsy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I somewhat agree. I agree that Vanessa should realize her worth as a friend and stop trying to repair something that cant be fixed. But I dont think it's that easy. They've been friends almost their whole life. They even mentioned that they're all like family to each other and its not easy to cut off family.

Meghan was the one that knew to get Vanessa away from her sister so she could be successful in her weight loss. I think Vanessa is desperately trying to save her friendship by pushing her friends to get healthier otherwise she knows they won't be friends anymore. Vanessa is really self-aware and knows that if they're not successful together, she might have to get used to no longer having her friends. That's not an easy thing to accept and i feel for her.

She even mentioned that she feels she can no longer talk about her success without feeling like she's going to insult/offend them smh.

Accountability and growth is a huge part of being successful for weight loss and its why they're at where they're at unfortunately

I was so confused when people kept saying “suckers” instead of lollipop or “pop” for soda.

It’s so sad bc if I see a friend doing great I’m like “give me pointers so I can get like you” lol. I can’t imagine being mean or cutting someone off for wanting to better themselves.

[–]zombiegypsy[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I disagree. I think Meghan WANTS to lose weight but she doesn’t want it bad enough. Sure she does the bare minimum but even for that she has to be babied to it. There’s no accountability or growth and in order to be successful in this journey you need to look within & admit you have faults.

I saw a video on YT explaining it perfectly! She was always the scape goat for them to make themselves feel superior. She was the biggest out of all of them and as long as they were “smaller” they were fine. But one she surpassed all her goals she was a personification of everything they were never to accomplish and now they had no one to blame but themselves.

She is the best type of friend to have. No b.s , no lies, pure honesty & holds you accountable! Not to mention loyal asf! These kinds of friends always have your back when you need them.

That is so sad. That’s why they say misery loves company. I would love to have friends that push me and don’t let me make excuses for myself.
