    I drove 200 miles last night to end my relationships. I talked a lot. Couldn't bring myself to say the words. I didn't think it would be possible for my heart to be so broken again.

    I know this is late, but I'm so sorry.

    @raelynnsmama52512, I'm sorry you're having a tough time at the moment. I know your focus is all on your little one right now, but please try to take care of yourself right now too. Thinking about both of you!

    @Glinda1971, you've got a huge jewelry collection! I'm impressed with your storage solution.

    @kecmw25, have fun camping and @Tubbs216, have fun in Mexico!

    I bought a new Fitbit last night but after trying them on, I just went with the One again. I don't think I could handle any of them on my wrist all day, so I'm just going to have to pay attention and try not to send it on another washer/dryer trip. I'm excited to have it to track stairs for me especially...and to find out exactly how far I walk on our trek!

    Everyone was chatty last night while Iwas dropping half a plate of Greek food down my jeans leg and thinking at least it was Greek dressing and neither peanut butter not chocolate that went down my left thigh. LOL. I was seriously pissed that I dropped half of a $13 plate of food though.

    Today, I am tempting fate. I ordered a chili-cheese baked potato for lunch even though I am wearing white pants and a black and white top.

    If there's leftover birthday cake around, I'll throw it away to avoid temptation. In about 15 mins I'll fish it out of the trash if it wasn't touching anything too icky and eat it anyway...I've done this more than once.

    I love Batman's The Joker and Harley Quinn, so I'm looking forward to the Suicide Squad movie. The trailer just came out and I'm really loving the look of Harley!! However, what in the world is going on with this new Joker? He looks... ridiculous. I'm trying not to be too judgemental, because people were angry over Heath Ledger's Joker before The Dark Knight came out, and he turned out to be amazing.

    i am giddy excited for suicide squad!
    i like the way jared leto looks, the only things that bother me are the "damaged" tattoo on his forehead and that gold grill. but i still think the movie is going to be fantastic B)

    I am giddy excited for Margot Robbie. <3 her soooo much. I am excited for the movie as well. I think Leto will do great playing the part of The Joker.

    Sounds like you need to up your sabotage game before the failed sabotages sabotage you! lol

    Yeah, obviously time to start spraying the garbage with a water gun or pouring dish soap in or something (but not both, probably, unless you want a bubble explosion.)

    I confess I feel like a jerk about being mad at my husband for eating my Graze flapjacks yesterday because last night he gave me an hour long back and leg massage...that I really needed!
    I also am super proud of my son for asking if we could pick up all of the trash that we see while out on our walks. We brought a bag with us today and it was full by the time we got home. I'm going to post a picture in the random picture thread in the batcave. :)

    Apparently the tactic is to spray windex or something on it. Or drown it in water.
    I actually threw away half a cake yesterday myself. Yay for us!

    I have such a severe loss of appetite that I have to force myself to eat and am stuck eating only 250-270 calories a day.
    I'm sorry to hear that. Are you sick or depressed? I sometimes have a huge loss of appetite too. Is there any way you can maybe get in more calories via fluids? Perhaps adding some honey or cream to tea or drinking a lot of juice?

    I'm neither sick nor depressed. My mom and I think it's mainly because my stomach shrank greatly after losing 80 pounds so I never get hungry. :/ I only drink water. No sodas in well over a year and no Starbucks in almost a year (one year on the 28th!). I don't have diabetes but I don't drink juice because of the sugar level.

    That is very extreme, though - 270 calories is less than three tablespoons of peanut butter, a medium-sized steak, or even a couple glasses of full-fat milk or certain protein bars (just one.) And it is definitely a pretty serious issue if you're only eating the equivalent of one of those in an entire day. That doesn't sound like a natural decrease in appetite, it sounds like a serious medical issue to me.

    This is what I was thinking as well. It would probably be good to get checked out by a doctor. Maybe there is some kind of blockage going on in the stomach (mass or maybe even a bleeding ulcer filling you up). Not trying to scare you but it would be best to get it checked.

    ETA-Ok, reading more I also think you need to talk to someone about a possible eating disorder because you've been eating too little for a long time. :(

    Yeah, doesn't happen much in our house either, but I put plums and almond extract in this one so it wasn't to their taste!

    I have a husband and a roommate to eat my leftovers, but my husband has ZERO sweet tooth so it's always the stuff I want the most that he has no interest in...sigh. I should have married a man who likes to order dessert. Alas.

    But then, you don't want to get between him and a bag of Doritos if you want to keep your hands, so it's not like he's a paragon of food virtue.

    Normally I'm all about the sweets but I have to confess that I'm just not into peanut butter flavoured things.

    Although I like peanut butter itself and Reese's peanut butter anything (except the ice cream), I've always hated peanut butter cookies and don't eat anything else made with peanut butter, even *gasp* cheesecake... and cheesecake has to be one of my most favourite things ever.

I'm 1000% jealous of all you that have met up, or are making plans to meet up in the near future. Maybe someday I will be able to join you.

    Well said. Ditto.

    I loooove peanut butter. I never used to care, but because my husband is severely allergic, I only get to eat peanut stuff when I go away overnight without him or he goes without me. I'm afraid to eat it and then see him right away, even if I brush my teeth and wash my hands and stuff, because it's such a bad allergy. So now I eat ALL the peanut butter whenever I actually can. I have a picture of me (used it for my FitBit profile) that I took in the car on the way to a camping trip without him where I am eating from a jar of peanut butter using the foil seal as a spoon. No shame. I carried that jar around all weekend in a neon fanny pack (sorry Brits, "bum bag").

    Thanks for all the kind words everyone! ❤️
    I really appreciate you guys listening to me vent and talk, I don't get that opportunity much. I haven't even mentioned anything that I've found out to the family yet, because I know what comes next, and I don't think I can handle their condescending remarks and snide comments right now.

    That stinks that your family isn't more supportive, you could really use that. You can always talk here!!

    I'm not suppose to eat any bread or eat out but for the past 2 weeks (1 time each week) I have visited Panera Bread (I love this place) and I've had bread and green tea :s

    I've been eating a lot of jelly beans lately. It's not something I'm usually even slightly bothered about. At first I was pretending it eased the morning sickness, but that stage has now passed (and it was never really true, potato-based foods are the cure for morning sickness!). I think I've just become addicted to cheap supermarket own-brand jelly beans.

    Really? That's horrible... you need all the support and cheerleaders you can get while you fight the bureaucracy to get the services your daughter needs... and the earlier the better.

    I know I'm in a different country with different health care and educational systems but things probably work much the same in that the squeaky wheel gets the grease. So stand firm and be your daughter's strongest advocate.

    It's okay. I'm kinda used to it, we're sort of the outcasts of the family, so it's not like we're going to get much love anyway. It's usually that we're overreacting, she's just a bad kid, or it's our fault because we don't "expose" her enough, and (my favorite) we don't discipline (aka spank) her enough and that's why she's the way she is. Everyone wants to ignore the multiple doctors that have said explicitly that something is wrong, and blame us for her problems. I've dealt with a lot of bs from his family over the years, and nothing short of us ending our marriage (which is NOT happening!) is going to ever make it better. So, I just try to ignore it and move on.

    you need love and support not ignorance and blame.
