I wish I was old enough to be on the pension I can only dream of the joy I could experience in life if I could drop my kids at school and pick them up, and if I was >65 I could be doing that rather than hating existence while being at work. gently caress I need a new job / line of work.

that’s bullshit from big tire i watched a play last night called father. it left me feeling depressed. ugh i want to know if there is something I can write like a “health will”, so If I ever get diagnosed with dementia, then medical decisions have to follow a certain set of rules : only give me drugs or interventions that reduce the burden of my dementia on others, no drugs that are for the purpose of extending my life like antihypertensives etc. because gently caress knows when you’re no longer considered able to make rational decisions about your own health they just default to tying to extend your life i don’t want to say people don’t get value out of looking after their partner or parents when they get demented but gently caress I want to do everything I can to never be that person to someone else. it’s bad enough having to be alive while I can actually contribute to society and family (despite depression telling me i’m already a burden, i know i’m not generally and I know some people would prefer my existence to lack thereof), being alive when I would be a burden is the last thing I want in the world. poo poo that play left me depressed lol

nice ableism about the weight loss here. “just do what almost all the population fails to do even tho is aware of and often tries” I am conflicted about the HAES movement because of the implication within that it’s “ok” to continue to gain weight and that excess weight - if it does matter from a medical point of view (and it seems it’s often less than stated) - is an effectively non-modifiable factor, but it raises a lot of excellent issues regarding huge levels of exclusion from medical help and tries to tackle seemingly universal obsession within medicine to lose weight before addressing anything else I started following a local doctor on instagram who practices it, and i’m a real sucker for evidence and progressive attitudes toward health so I couldn’t help but accept its place.. but I do struggle, because when I have raised the issues that for myself as a diabetic, excess weight is very bad for me and makes me very insulin resistant, and losing weight and keeping slim has to be an almost daily obsession for me, especially given how I have to inject the strongest anabolic hormone we know in relatively huge quantity every day 🥺

there’s some statistic that once you get to something like a BMI of 32 or more, getting back down to “normal” is extremely difficult. that’s the stats anyway, not a prescription of what will happen food these days is simply too delicious to rely on our on inbuilt senses of moderation, we have to consciously and relentlessly focus on eating the right food, if you were raised to always finish your meals and not waste food and enjoy the good things i’ve taught my kids to stop eating then they are full, to pay attention to how too much food makes them feel. when I serve up dessert or etc it’s very small portions. i’m giving them a far more vegetarian diet too, legumes are big in their life for the fibre factor. probably worse sin is tendency for me to salt the gently caress out of food to make it taste so good, making food that’s too delicious to stop eating when you’re full. make food less delicious and you will eat less.. easy lol

my mum tries to feed me like i’m a 19yo rugby player why why mum please when I come over for dinner please remember i’m trying to lose weight every day, and i certainly don’t need two cups of mashed potato on top of everything else too lol. people can’t escape habits. she was raised with potato in every meal coz calories were scarce. now that they aren’t, we need to get those things off our plates, not just have a moderated amount of them. i literally never ever need a part of a meal that fills me up. protein and greens, is all I ever need to plan for, because I know my poor poor self control will lead me to a bad decision that I need to proactively compensate for lmao

Silver Alicorn posted:I’ve been “struggling” with my weight but also trying to shame myself less as it contributes to anxiety. there is definitely a feedback loop where the deliciousness of a food overrides any sense of “fullness” I might have and I don’t notice I’ve overeaten until it’s done. best I can manage is portion control (hard) and healthy selections (less hard) best book I’ve ever read on dieting is “the hungry brain” by stefan someone. really goes to show it’s not about carbs or protein but deliciousness and satiety 🤷♂️

yeah that occurred to me last night when I was talking to a person going thru first big breakup, after 2 years. but they didn’t have mixed finances or kids or assets and it was tempting to be like “at least this and that”, but that doesn’t matter to her, as far as she’s concerned her heartbreak is as bad as anyone’s etc etc, so I decided against saying that and just went “there there”
