@Focus Shift Interesting video! I tend to like the nice guy type more then the super macho guy, but I do appreciate when a guy "comes to save the day", so to speak. In various ways, lol.

That is correct...and I probably never will.

If this is true, then you're playing with fire...and will probably get burned.

I hope that if you ever need a neurosurgeon that its a girl!

Glad you said it, apparently ppl here think women are total dumbass. What a shame. I remember in college I was on my way to my Chemistry class and there was a very pretty blonde woman walking the same direction in high heels. Some guys tried to hit on her with some rude, dumb remarks and she just ignored them. She walked into the same Chem room I was going to and went up to the front of the class. She was the teacher and had a Doctorate degree in Chemistry. So much for women being stupid

Well, I wanted to lose weight and as fate would have it I became very ill for a month and lost 12 pounds. I did try also, but I wasnt really hungry, since I was sick. I stopped night snacking (mostly), didnt eat over 400 calories during the day (usually), then reasonable dinner. Any diet tips would be welcomed. I still have 15-20 lbs to lose and I'm not well enough yet to exercise, so that's out.

@soeasy Hiya, well, I vaped when I quit smoking and found it just as addictive. So, I would not recommend it. I have since (several yrs ago) quit vaping as well.

@InfinitePotential Thank you. Home care nurses aren't the healthiest ppl in the world, especially when short staffed and working our asses off. So, I do a lot of driving and sitting. I know I need to start exercising. I'm just full if excuses about that right now. Who wants to get on a tread mill after working 10-12 hours. So, doing my best at the moment. Thanks for your reply?

@milii Girllll you're in pain. It's okay. Dont over think it. You're jealous he's moved on without you. Cry....a lot! Eventually, you'll feel better. It's going to take time. So, take one day at a time. Stop being so hard on yourself. ?

@Raptorsin7 ?

So what do you guys think of eating just once a day? I did that years ago to lose baby weight. It worked well.

@Armand Thank you, it's funny because I was thinking maybe of trying this before you posted. I haven't gained back any weight, but did increase cals in past 2 weeks wondering if I was too low. Havent lost a dang pound since I did. So, I was right, I have to be lower then average or I don't lose. So, I'll be reducing cals again and maybe try intermittent fasting with it, ty.

^^^^^ This And the teacher thing, having whoever wait if they can see you are already talking to someone. If they cant wait, then talk with them later and dont worry about it. As a nurse I have patient's families interrupting me and the pts all the time. I've started to handle this differently lately, by saying, "you'll have to wait until we are done with what we are talking about, then I'll get to your question". It doesnt always work, but I try. Good luck. It's a good problem to have.

Well, my story is just that, my story. I'm not advocating my path for anyone else with MS. Just so I'm clear on that, because my path became very unorthodox and not many could understand. So, with that being said, here we go.... I've had MS for 28 years. Cant ever say I'm cured, because there is no cure for MS. Anyways, from age 21 I had taken injections they called "disease modifying drugs" for 12 yrs. I always had some sorta side effects, usually flu-like symptoms. Also, taking these injections were a constant, painful reminder of the disease. For me, having a incurable neurological disease created misery in my mind of a possible future in a wheelchair, etc. Well meaning family, friends would send me books on the newest, latest diets, exercise, medications, etc, etc, etc....I just hated it so much!!!!! One day i realized wayyyy too much of my attention and thought was surrounding this stupid disease and I was done with it and done taking injections, which at the time was all there was as far as disease modifiers. I discussed my plan with family and friends at the time, which almost everyone thought was crazy. The plan... starve the disease of my thoughts and attention. That's it. No special diet. No exercise regimen. I'm not a health nut. Just stop taking any MS disease modifiers, no more high dose steroids during attacks, stop talking about the disease, stop getting MRI's unless really needed, stop thinking of myself as a person with MS....just STOP. At my next neurology appt I told my doctor I would be stopping disease modifiers, not be coming for follow ups as often and just wanted to be treated symptomatically if needed with low dose steroids, etc. She had a hissy fit. She was a prominent MD at the Cleveland Clinic Mellon Center and she said "you can't do that!" I said, "really?, watch me!" She then said she would not be my doctor anymore if I went off disease modifying meds. So, we broke up on that day...lol. So, I found another neurologist trained in MS and she agreed to be my doctor with me only being treated symptomatically. Soooo, it's been about 16 years now that I started this. It took a little while for things to slow down, as slow as it is now. Meaning I had some MS attacks early on, but not as many and not as severe. I wouldn't allow anyone to talk about MS. It was a taboo subject really for quite awhile. About 3 or 4 yrs ago, cant really remember. I had a appt with my neurologist because I had a problem and wasnt sure if it was MS related. She had said she didnt think so, but that my last brain MRI had been 5 yrs and we should get another to compare. I really didnt want to, but got it anyways since she insisted. When I went back to find out the verdict she said, "well, it's not often I get to say this, but other than a little bit of new scattered demyelination your lesions are shrinking!" I said, "how is that happening?" She said, " we don't really understand it fully, but it's good, very good". **(Now lesions will never truly go away completely, unless they are replaced by CSF- cerebral spinal fluid, which to my knowledge isnt good and a sign of overall brain atrophy, but that's not what was happening in my case. Lesions are brain scar tissue and increase typically due to the inflammatory processes of MS. They can only shrink like mine if the inflammatory process has stopped or slowed considerably to my knowledge.) So, now a days, I still dont discuss MS at home, unless having a problem. Since I do still have lesions, even tho smaller, I do "very occasionally" have symptoms from those lesions. But, true MS attacks or relapses are from "new" or worsening demyelination/lesions. I really only discuss MS sometimes on a forums usually to help someone else or if asked a question.

I can be rough on the guys here that tout wanting the "hot" girl at all expense. I think its shallow as hell. Well, you have the same vibe to me as that. I call girls like you "money hungry", sure you probably have some fear of being destitute deep down or maybe you like shiny stuff hanging around your neck and wrists. That's for you to figure out. But, you like what you like I guess. Is it shallow. Yup. Doesnt mean your not a good person otherwise though. So, dont be too hard on yourself about it.

Hi there, so I saw your name on some thread just yesterday and thought "what happened to him?", "did he get banned?".... then, here you are, strange! Nice to see you're not banned and are doing well.
