What it's like to binge...
I know everyone story is different. You might be a binge eater or know someone who struggles with it but for me it is hard to describe what is going on in the moment or after until I processed it out myself. I am lucky in the fact that I have people who support me. The problem is that they try when I am unable to…

So when biking (road) I my fingers fall asleep and I get that tingly feeling. I know I have poor circulation because I have Raynaud's disease.

Polar FT60 Women's Heart Rate Monitor
So I have the Polar FT60 Women's Heart Rate Monitor. Lately it has been having a hard time finding my HR. I got it for Christmas and the battery should not be bad.

Cat Help!
So, my cat (not sure which one) has started a new habit of pooping on the carpet. I don't know why or how to stop it! Their litter has not changed.

judgmental
So, I have found that the healthier I am more judgmental I become! I watch people eat a salad- then put so much dressing on it that the lettuce is swimming- or when I see people eat heavy creamed soup then a cheeseburger and french fries covered in ketchup and then desert and push the veggies aside and it grosses me out. I…
