"Portion control" is not the appropriate response to someone who says they're exhausted with the things they're already trying to do.
"Move more!" To the person with no car, biking everywhere and putting 10km a day into pokemon go.
"The thing I struggle with most is the interoceptive awareness deficits I get from ADHD - every time I feel hunger, it's an emergency, and I don't feel full until hours after a meal, so every time I eat it's a conscious effort to decide when to stop, despite feeling no less hungry."
I am basically dealing with a multi-month emotional meltdown having just realized I had a terrible thing wrong that no one diagnosed b/c they just kept calling me fat.
do we ride at dawn and burn it all down? I have matches.
Lets do it, MY KNEE WAS SHIT BACK WHEN I WAS UNDERWEIGHT IT IS NOT BECAUSE I AM FAT, my blood pressure has been high most of my life too because of genetics, not my weight.
I am terrified b/c I am getting a brand new PCP (appointment not until next month) and I know it's just roulette as to whether or not I get one who isn't fatphobic.
My joint issues have worsened as I've lost weight recently, but I know there's a 70% chance it will be blamed on being fat.
Holy shit that is FOUL! All my good vibes to you, dude, and may that doctor's pillow be warm on both sides and the insoles of all her shoes forever moist. My partner is dealing with similar fuckery atm, we're in the process of filling a complaint. I wish for better things ahead for you!
Oh that doctor––so f'ing unhelpful. By the way, every time I see your username in my feed, it brings me joy. Now imagining you giving the doctor that little wave...
At what point should one stop the doctor and inform them that the visit is now concluded and that they’re fired? For me that point arrived much earlier in this “conversation”, but perhaps I’m an extremist.
Hey Nome, are you eating /enough?/
I'm only asking because I had a stretch of time where I was eating until I was full, but I was still tired and miserable all the time. And at 10km a day, you're moving more than I was at that point.
Technically speaking it only happens to people who have the probability of diabetes in their genes. Even type 2. (Or in my case 1.5.)
It is (or at least that’s why my Diabetes nurse told me at the orientation) a hereditary condition.
Had a guy in my diabetes orientation group who got diagnosed while training for like his tenth marathon. (He was probably 1.5 like me but still fuck people who claim it’s a life style disease…)
