I find working out helps my cramps. Or maybe working out just makes me so uncomfortable I don't even notice my cramps anymore? I definitely find that getting really sweaty at the gym helps me un-bloat my retained water.

Have you ever had millet? It's like 75 cents a pound in the bulk section of my grocery store and cooks up in less than 20 minutes. It's a grain that tastes like a firm, nutty couscous. I mix a cup of millet with a half cup of canned beans to make a complete protein. My preference is for flavored beans or beans that come in…

I love Bang drinks. They taste less chemical-like, and don't overdo it on sweetener. I'm always afraid they're going to get discontinued and I'll have to go back to tea-flavored Monster.

Oh, wow, great work! Your shoulders are just gorgeous!

Lexapro gave me awful withdrawals, too- brain zaps, terrible mood swings, I nearly lost my job because I couldn't concentrate. I've gone off weed for months at a time and felt perfectly fine. If that's weed dependency, I'll take it over an SSRI withdrawal any day.

I'm headed to the dispensary this evening to see if they have anything with high CBD. Someone else in the comments linked to a CBD extract that looks really promising, too.

That mousse sounds perfect! Do you know if it keeps for a few days in the fridge, or does the texture go all weird after a day or so?
-
It did help, thanks! I'll try chugging a few glasses of water before bed tonight. Here's hoping I'm not up all night peeing:D
-
Oh, I doubt you're particularly sorry. Why be mealy-mouthed? It's only the internet.

Like what? I'm currently using an indica called Romulan, THC-21.2% CBD- 0.20%. If you know of something better for sleep, I am totally open to suggestions:)

Unfortunately, I'm very aware of numerous other insomnia fighting techniques. I was diagnosed with insomnia as a child, and have tried literally dozens of options. I've seen doctors, therapists, psychiatrists, done sleep studies, and have tried everything from meditation to polyphasic sleep. Weed works for me, so I'm…

Nope, I don't really get munchies from edibles, it just always takes like four hours for edibles to hit me, and I want something a little faster than that.
-
Because if I don't get some sleep, I'm not functional the next day:D
-
That's very interesting! I've never smoked with anyone who does not get hungry after smoking, and it's kind of a weed-culture joke/cliche, so I assumed it was universal.
-
I'm in Oregon, so maybe they have high CBD weed here? I'll check it out! The strain I prefer for sleep has a CBD percentage of .20, which I'm gonna guess is not a lot.
-
Wow, well done!
-
Portland, here! :)

I used to live in Ogden! It spoiled me for living elsewhere- gym and dance/yoga studio memberships are sooooo much cheaper there than anywhere else.

Have you done cardio kickboxing? I have disproportionately huge breasts, and like you, I hate jumping. Cardio kickboxing was one of the few sports I've tried where I wasn't constantly clutching my chest and making 'owww' faces. Instead of jumping, it's mostly side-stepping and squatting. Also, this bra is the only thing…

I'm trying to severely reduce my drinking this year, too. It's harder than I thought to cut out my nightly IPA with dinner! :(
-
I need more friends! I'm looking to lose 25 pounds this year, and would love to read other people's stories as they're happening:) I'd especially like friends who post updates and want to give and receive positive motivational feedback.
-
Wow! You're so pretty, even when you were heavier you were an absolute knockout!
-
You look amazing, and I want that bridesmaid's dress so very, very much! Where did you get it? It's such a nice, classic style.
-
Thanks for all the replies! It looks like everyone's mileage may vary. I'm cutting back from 8 cups of coffee a day to three cups of green tea, and the headaches are only starting to fade off. I feel less puffy and bloated, but that may be all in my head. Part of my desire to quit coffee is because of possible benefits,…

I do this, too! When I'm drunk, Taco Bell seems like the best thing EVER. It's like I get booze munchies. I hit the bar, then go home and dig through my cupboards for hidden candy. I'd rather drunk-eat than go home with strangers or sing karaoke, so as drunken bad ideas go, I'll stick with my post-vodka gluttony:)

Being on my period kicks my willpower down to nothing. It's easy to rationalize dunking my head in a tub of ice cream when I'm in miserable pain. I mean, if I can't have vicodin, I deserve something to numb the crampy agony, right?
