    macadamia got a reaction from GreenTealael in I am being discharged today! Woot!   
    Resting, yes, but I'm staying in town tonight because I'm still a bit high on the pain meds. I'm at the hotel now and exhausted... I need a nap and I have homework to do for school. I think the nap takes priority.

    I had to stop and buy food for the stay. I've never bought baby food before so I had no idea what to expect. I got some chicken and some green beans, then some SF jello and SF pudding, protein shakes, and some yogurt. I think that will make it until tomorrow afternoon when I try to drive home...

    Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it!

    ^^^^This a million times is so wise!!!
    You have to forgive others (and yourself) for the pain they caused when you were MO. ((hugs)) As a fellow bd-girl I relate and understand!!
    You deserve to find someone who loves you to beyond and back. But you won't meet them if you don't risk.
    ((hugs))

    The thing is I am the same person as before... My weight was NEVER an issue or roadblock for me. I'm still a Master's holding, Art creating, multi-language speaking, world traveling, minimalist loving, hippy eco warrior I was before. ABSOLUTELY nothing has changed about me EXCEPT my weight. Those people who didn't see me clearly then can't possibly see me clearly now with the lust distraction...

    I understand that you feel that way, but in the grand scheme of things, does that really matter? Your previous life is past - you are doing what you are doing for your future. There are many people who would not have given you the time of day before, sure. But you are not that person anymore. Why hold on to that?

    More and more people are going to start wanting to talk to you and may even want to hang out or even date. This is enviable. Let go of whether or not you think they would have done so before. You are not who you were. The new you is in a better place, healthier, happier, open to new things, and is a wonderful person. (-:

    Not buying stuff that's too big for me, but I am spending too much on clothing that I won't wear for very long. I have a suit that I may never actually get to wear (in part because the salesman never bothered to tell me it was slightly too big for me when I bought it).
