Re: Quiet night...what's everyone been up to today?

I hope your sushi turns out!

I took a pet to the vet for her monthly bath, took her bedding and my clothes to the laundromat, got groceries, and so far I've walked 5.5 miles doing all of it.

Gonna go walk another mile and a half. I dunno how long I can keep doing 7 miles a day, but I sat on my ass last year and my average dropped from 6.5 a day in 2019 to 3.7 a day by the end of 2020. I was already fat but now I have chest pain sometimes so I hope the exercise helps. I should go see my doctor when COVID is under better (around here, any) control, but getting lectured about my weight sucks. Like, dude, I know. I'm fat and eat too much fat.

Not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow, but at least I have a job.

Thanks! I've made sushi at home before and while it's nowhere near as photogenic and neat as a sushi bar, it's tasty.

Good on you for keeping up with your exercise but yes, please talk to your doctor about the chest pain asap. A decent doctor will congratulate you for exercising, not shame you for your weight.

I should try making vegetarian sushi sometime. Even though I haven't eaten meat in decades, I miss seafood.

My doctor and the one I had before him went to the "even if you're not lying about the amount of exercise you get, it doesn't count if you're not losing weight" school of medicine, sigh.

And I'd need therapy and probably meds to diet for any length of time without triggering myself--my mom struggled with her weight her whole life and was only skinny when she took meth, lived off a single serving of yogurt a day, or both.

My dad was schizophrenic and a full blown orthorexic, only the term didn't exist when he put me on all-raw vegetable diets, followed my mom and I to restaurants and lurked in the bushes to ambush us on the way out, frisbeed the spaghetti dinner my mom cooked for my soon to be ex friends into the backyard while screaming and broke half the plates while my friends ran for the door...

He lived off sprouted beans, brown rice, sauerkraut, spirulina, and nutritional yeast. Not to mention his exercise regimen. I'm lucky I can hike without flashbacks.

I think therapists, doctors, and nutritionists run into women like my mom, and adult children of women like her, fairly often.

My dad... Maybe therapists who deal with former child athletes who were kept on restrictive diets might be able to help me, idk.

Most of the nutritional therapist types I've spoken to who deal with diet stuff are nice, but their focus is usually on "these are the basics of healthy eating and self control :-) :-)" and I just smile in response and tell them I know more ways to cook veggies, beans, and rice than they could imagine, and I actually like veggies and fruit fine.

But any talk of portion control or forbidden foods or whatever and my brain is just "nope, I'm out." The only times I've actually tried restricting anything about what/how/when I eat, I last two days max before panicking.
