I put the pic up because its how I saw recent weight loss
OH told me that he's worried about me, I think I still look better than last year(not hard)

Eating disorders suck

elsien

Not going to comment on the weight because I don't think it's helpful to you. And I'm scared of saying the wrong thing. But if OH is worried then that probably counts for something. Do you feel any better than last year - I suspect it would be hard to feel much worse?

Btw when I see your photos it's your eyes that the attention is drawn to as well as your hair.

Putting this up, then I'll shut up.

You may find the prospect too intrusive at the moment, but it's support for the both of you because of your individual health needs but also in your role as a carer. And you can have direct payments to access your own support if that works better for you.

Sun's out even if it's a tad cold. Hope today is a good one for you.

Thanks Elsien nit sure if it's helpful or not at the moment
Exhausted is how I fell mainly lol
Hope gitdog is having a good day

Odd, sure there there was another post
Oh well

You misunderstand. I'm not concerned about what I'm saying on the forum. I do not know enough about eating disorders to want to risk saying something which may make someone with an eating disorder feel worse.
I don't know why you keep popping up and sticking your oar in when you have nothing useful to contribute.

(Someone you probably have on ignore melly. Now deleted. Very odd. )

Poor Gitdog has colitis. Brought on by the stress of being pinned to the floor for his annual kennel cough booster. . Wouldn't bother with it but it's needed for kennels. How's the separation anxiety going on at your end?

This is a public forum, anyone can post. I haven't posted anything which breaks forum rules, yet my posts keep getting reported and deleted, so what's going on?


Has the OP got some sort of agreement with MSE that only the replies / posters she likes can post on this thread. Seriously, I'm beginning to wonder.


Oh, and report this if you like...


sigh

Don't even ask Madam Porky can't stand me to be out of her sight.
She was bad anyway but now....

I think in her tiny doggy brain one human disappeared for ages and her human kept leaving so needs to keep an eye on me.

I'm not engaging with them, or people who come on the thread to slag off my friends so they can carry on.

Boo gets colitis for pain I recommend devil's claw
And there are some ace tablets you can get to bind the ick.
Will look for name

Vetiq Stool Firm
Its pectin and really works when it goes like jelly (yuk)

Thanks. I'll look out for that.
Are you able to work on the separation anxiety at all at the moment? I have to be honest that and barking are the two things I find hardest to deal with. I can tolerate all sorts of other bad behaviour but neediness and shouting does my head in.

mellymoo74

Currently have both
Girlie in season so Boo being a bit of a get and barking at nothing
Madam is glued to me at all times.

I'm trying not getting very far
Both are crappy behaviours to resolve and need more consistency than I can do
Its only for another 11 or so years lol
