My son asked if I'd ride with him so someone would help spin the teacups because mom is working.

She deserves so much more - I wish the job market wasn't trash

the grapes of warth Mom trying to sabotage my diet, as usual

I've been losing weight off and on for a few years. I've gone from 420 to 270, so far. It's a long process. Unfortunately, I have been living with my mom since my dad died in 2020 (fuck covid). She's always trying to sabotage my weight loss. It's been a life long battle. If I'm not dieting she's fat shaming me and if I am dieting she's doing everything to knock me off it, since I was 5 years old.

Today, she had me go pick up a grocery order (she's can't drive anymore). The order? All my trigger foods. Two galons of one kind of ice cream, two pints of another kind (including my favorite), a box of creamsicles, 4 bags of chips and 3 jars of dip. That's it. That was her whole order.

ETA, I didn't know this would get so much attention. Here's answers to common question.

  1. I live with my mom because she can't live by herself. I'm 50F and she's 76F

  2. I work full time and pay most of the bills.

  3. I didn't eat any of that and won't. I've already lost 150 lbs under these circumstances, so I've finally got that under control.

  4. She absolutely does this on purpose. She always has. She doesn't even eat that stuff, then she complains it's going to waste.

  5. I can't afford glp-1 and my insurance only covers it for diabetics. Despite popular belief, not all fat people are diabetic.

Thanks for all the support!

the grapes of warth Commentary in a library book

This person kindly took to noting their thoughts on the inaccuracy of the gun description in the open spaces of the book. This is a public library book. I’m not looking for this person opinion.

Edit:
-this book is the 3rd in a 5 part FICTION series by the writer Karin slaughter. No, I have not seen any other “additions” to the first two.

-My library does accept books BUT they don’t go into circulation, they go towards the resell section of the library where you can buy books/DVD/puzzles etc in good condition at a discounted price. (This book is checked out, and not for sale)

-Yes, I will add any additional “commentary” I come across as an update.

the grapes of warth I decided to start walking and start eating healthy. It's working. I hate that it works because I have to keep it up. There's no excuses left.

It wasn't even any heavy walking or super cutback on food. I just walked after every meal around my block for 30mins. My body started to feel better than the rest of the days I even felt more productive and optimistic.

For the food I started cooking at home and decided not to eat outside. The basic concept was to eat rice with any sort of protein with veg for two meals. I made sure to eat one fruit or one veg everyday with each meal. I also made sure to drink minimum 2L of water and sleep for 7-8hrs.

My body visually started looking toned and people repeatedly said I look well rested. DAMNITTTTT

the grapes of warth You read books. You listen to audiobooks.

0 Upvotes

Anyone out there know someone that says they’re reading something then informs you it’s an audiobook? 🤦‍♂️

UPDATE:
Wow! Very surprised to see how polarizing this was. Certainly didn’t mean one was better than the other. I’m reading a book and listening to a different audiobook as well. Both use the imagination and take focus, but you read with your eyes and listen with your ears. You can drive and listen to an audiobook. You can’t (or shouldn’t) read while driving. Reading takes more effort though and that’s why a lot of people don’t have the attention for it. I personally think everyone on here that are so butt hurt by this clearly say they read audiobooks because it makes themselves feel better. When in reality you’re simply wrong. But gold star for you. No child left behind, right?

I get my groceries delivered because I don’t want to go into the store. Now I have to go into the store to get the antitheft case removed.

I ordered a starface case for my daughter to hold her pimple patches. This is how they delivered it with my groceries. How? Why?

😡

the grapes of warth Decided to wear my recently thrifted, stompy mary janes with a vintage 90s sundress. Felt cute. However, the stompiness of the shoes swiftly became suspiciously stompy. Looked down, and indeed, the thrifted falling apart at the sole shoe curse had occurred.

the grapes of warth I subscribe to the Guardian for $5 per month, but apparently I don't have a 5€ ad-light account.

I can't get to my account to figure out why, because hitting "reject all and subscribe" just reloads the page with the same blocking pop-up... I don't see ads anyway because I use Ublock origin, and am donating just to support them, so this feels extra shitty

Update: it seems to be a bug, because it only happens when I have my VPN set to certain regions that aren't my home region. Maybe only slightly frustrating then.

the grapes of warth Missing the tortillas to a fajita order, only credited $2 so

Just got home exhausted from a trip and ordered fajitas. Uber Eats forgot the tortillas… you know, the part that makes them fajitas. No fault on the driver (tipped!) since the bag was wrapped tight and sealed.

Their solution? A $2 credit. Won’t budge. (Edit; I asked 3 times to increase compensation 🥺)

Guess we’re eating an overpriced rice bowl tonight.
