I second that--the last part I mean! It's your body, it's up to you do what you believe is the best. (sorry if my advice sounds superficial or unoriginal, but I really do think that you should what you are most comfortable with. Otherwise what's the point the point of being "healthy" if you can't be happy too?)goji89 wrote:Funny, I always pictured a strong minded (although weak at times) fun loving guy who has too much to take in.

Almost two, now. What I mentioned last Monday (Tuesday?) is still going on. Got worse. Got a bit better. But still going on.
I started therapy on Saturday, and eh. We'll see how it goes. But today kinda has me bummed out. I finally made the choice to get the ball rolling on bariatric surgery (ball rolling, but process starting after the holidays 'cause I'm not eating yogurt and chicken broth on Christmas Eve). But it's kinda got me down because I really don't think I'm going to be able to do this surgery. It's such a radical lifestyle change, but not in like. A good way. So, for example here. They say if you drink one alcoholic beverage, within 13 minutes you'll have the B.A.C. of three drinks. If you get pulled over, you'll fail a breathalyzer test. That's not a life style change. A life style change is not drinking on week nights, and only having drinks socially with friends. I have to take a large amount of vitamins for the rest of my life, 10 minutes between each pill.
Sure, on one hand, these are changes that outweigh being obese. But like, good lord, what if I just want to have a coke once in a blue moon? Nope. Can't do it.
What sucks is I'm not even that unhealthy of a person. My stomach is just large from past unhealthiness and past binge eating issues, now under control, that if I try portion control I feel like I'm literally starving. So, on one hand I do a surgery that would completely limit my life and sure, I'd lose weight but I wouldn't really get to *enjoy* it except yay being skinny. On the other, I'm completely uncomfortable in my body and live a life of constantly fighting to lose weight.
None of this probably makes any sense to you guys, because you don't really know me so you probably picture a 400 pound guy eating donuts, fighting doctors off with a chicken wing. But that's not what's going on. Just kinda bummed.
Also I did picture a "guy" not you eating doughnuts and fighting off doctors with a chicken wing..... . Man if I saw that I'd lose my ever loving shiit.
But to summarize....Were behind you 100% no matter what you do....

I'm trying to not go to his birthday with a sense of sadness the entire time, but still, I'm feeling very sad of his state.
I din't go to his birthday alone though, I went with my parents and my sister, but I still wanted to go so I can support my uncle even in his few months of living that he has. We were there with many uncles, aunts and cousins, thankfully we din't get to have a depression-fest in his house, but we still showed him a huge amount of love and care. He was with his eyes open and he was trying to smile at us when we were talking to him, but I still know that he was happy to see us even with the difficulties that he has.
So yeah, seeing him in that state was sad, but at least I was able to spent time with him before the dying process starts to go on full-effect. I will visit him again before Christmas, but at least the sense of angst that I was having hours ago before visting him is not that present anymore, I will make sure to spend time with him before he stops living in this world anymore. Once again, I appreciate your support for this tough moment!

I'm also happy to hear that he was happy to see you all despite his condition. It will still be a difficult process, yes, but as long you and your family are there for each other and you keep using the time he has left to be with him, it will get easier. Not right away, but in a gradually kind of way.
And if you need me, I'm always here if you need to talk.

Just had the most confounding conversation with an ex, and now I just feel all confused and gloomy. Serves me right trying to talk to her though, I guess.

Re: What ruined your day?
About a month ago, I ordered two Black Friday discounted Godzilla Blu-Rays from Sentai Filmworks. Shippment's been taking a while and I finally realized I could track it by UPS. It turns out somehow, they couldn't find my adress and are currently shipping it to FUCKING DES MOINES, IOWA.

Re: What ruined your day?
Tell me about it.
I've figured out the situation (They got the wrong adress and we're shipping it back to the company, so they didn't just willy-nilly send it to Iowa.) but it's still frustrating and annoying. Especially because I really felt on top of this whole "adult" thing today and then poof! Reminder you're still have no common sense and makes easy mistakes!

Re: What ruined your day?
I once ordered something from New Mexico (once again I'd like to mention I live in Texas) and it took a week and a half to get here. In the same order, there was something coming from Japan which came in four days.SoggyNoodles2016 wrote:About a month ago, I ordered two Black Friday discounted Godzilla Blu-Rays from Sentai Filmworks.

SuperBestFriendsPlay, a YouTube channel I've been watching for a little over five years, is ending. These guys' videos have introduced me to all sorts of things I would never seek out on my own like God of War and wrestling. To see the channel end is a pretty big blow, honestly.

You too? I just came in this thread to post this. It's awful. But the thing that makes it worse is Matt and Pat not being friends anymore. Their dynamic was priceless. I started watching them when their Deadly Premonitions let's play came out, whenever that was. Feels like just yesterday. I don't know why, but it's like a punch to the gut.
