    Sorry, I got overwhelmed with pain so retreated to painkillers. Got something wrong as I woke up having a seizure of sorts. I think maybe 2 of them don't go together very well for me, even though nothing came up when I searched.

    Faerie, I'm sure he'll come back. He'll have found a nice cozy hiding place that he won't want to leave until it feels safe then he'll come home when he's hungry.

    1derwoman - sorry for your troubles. Don't apologise for being here - we were all that random person once. Clearly this dude is not worth it, but it's hard to deal with a break up when they just run away but you still have to see them. Hugs.

    Ww - I'd advise against control pants. Not comfy at all and every thing just leas out the top iyswim?. Mil swears by spanks but...nah. you can get some lightweight shorts that come quite high. I wear them for chub rub but they'd probably do for your purposes. Or maybe high waisted bikini bottoms or lyrcra bottoms and tops? High waisted is going to be your friend here, I think.

    Has anyone seen the 1d shred? It's so funny.

    Also, tesco have some awesome Christmas jumpers.

    Oh dear, 1derwoman, what a dreadful situation for you. :A
    Will you be ok mortgage/rent/bills-wise without his input?

    At least work people are aware and will help to keep him off your back.
    What on earth is he playing at, though, turning up in other places? What is it with these guys, who leave, but then can't let go? Doesn't make sense.,
    You're bound to be all over the place. All you can do is take it one day at a time. Keep work informed.
    Is he in your department or another one? Hopefully the latter.
    Keep your dignity. If he starts an argument in the office, just ignore him. If he's ranting on his own, work will pull him up for it, but won't have any reason to do so with you.

    Have a big hug ((((((((((((((1derwoman))))))))))))))))



    Faerie, go out this morning and try calling him again. Chances are he will turn up. If not, try going up and down the road, and ask neighbours to keep a look out, too.
    Does he have a collar? Or a microchip?
    If all else fails, print off some notices, perhaps with a pic, and stick them up on local posts, so that people can keep an eye out for him.
    Good luck. :A
    I'm sure he'll turn up, though, especially when he's hungry.

    Quick check in whilst my eyes are still open!

    1D Hello! Cheese is good, I did an experiment once to see if it really did give you nightmares if you eat it before you go to bed. Weird dreams, yes. Nightmares, no. As for the man, it sounds like he has some problems he could do with getting help with. You will get through it, just hang in there and take each day/situation as it comes.

    Faerie, if you are very worried could you make some posters and put them up? Or share his picture on Facebook and see if anyone has seen him? He may just have gone camping elsewhere until the fireworks stopped.

    Code, I use big Granny pants and still wear my 'over the bump' maternity trousers as I have a good overhang from my c-section. Anything too tight just gets sweaty and make the problem worse.

    WaS, well done on the trip out and well done on making it so MSE! I'm sure Martin would be proud of you getting tiddled for free!

    Melly, you sound like you are really highly valued at work. Maybe sure to you look after yourself as best you can do you can continue to do a good job.

    Flybaby, I hope uni is going OK. Do you have a personal tutor or anyone you can speak to about the stress the admin is causing? Or is there an advice service at the students union?

    Sorry, I know I have missed lots of people but I am thinking of you all!

    MU - what a lovely man :) hope you're feeling better today.
    1DWW - sounds like you really need some time in the fort, we'll look after you.
    faerielight - any sign yet? Have everything crossed he's home by now. I'm frantic if mine disappears for anything more than an hour (as people on here can attest to!) so I really do know what you're going through.
    WaS - hope you're ok this morning, no champagne hangover!
    pxyis - it's horrible isn't it, that paranoid feeling of wondering whether someone is out to get you, or they're just a b*tch in general! Hope it all sorts itself out.
    code - hope the thought of work isn't so bad today.

    Hugs and biscuits to all xx.

    I wear compression tights (I have lipoedema so they are to hold in my big thighs and legs) and I exercise in them under my exercise clothes. I find it ok.

    You can buy compression tights - try footless tights or capris. I found there wasn't enough compression for me in the sports compression pants (I got a Nike pair and thought they were pants :D) but you could look in a sports place like sports direct.

    If you have amazon vouchers you can get compression leggings on there. I got a light weight pair of solidea ones but they are around £30 plus. I spent £50 ish on a pair but it was all free vouchers from surveys etc so I didn't mind.

    Hope this helps.

    1DWW you're not crashing the thread at all :) You're very welcome here....as long as you've got cheese and biscuits....only joking, you're very welcome with or without food! :p Sounds like work is on your side though, so at least that's something. It can't be easy having to face him everyday still? :(

    Faerie, Cats know when they've got a good thing going, and a cosy home vs the rainy outdoors, he'll know which side his bread is buttered and be back soon I'm sure :) Do you have any dreamies? If our cat won't come in/can't be seen, a quick shake of the dreamies bag and he soon appears like magic!

    Hope the pain has eased off this morning code and that work flies by :)

    So it's true, these calorie creatures do exists!! They're the reason why my jeans are getting so tight then?! :p

    Damn calories - I swear they're breeding in my wardrobe. Nothing at all to do with the 6 months of binge eating of course :(:o.

    Feel bloated and pained today. Want a lie down!
