Ah, very true, because now instead of 'wtf did I eat???" now it's 'oh well, that thing is a no go, bro' Except now my family likes to ask "What CAN you eat???" like milk is the be all end all thing. I can eat other things! Shock and awe! Ugh. Every time someone says something like that, I just say "Well next time I throw up I'll just call you" and they laugh nervously. I just. I don't know, I guess I get a temper when people get all mocking about it ugh. Ah, that's so cool!! Yeah, trying to figure out what you can eat, what the restaurant is willing to work with (I went to get a smoothie from a closer place and they told me they only put coconut milk in one certain one but the others have yogurt (I can't handle yogurt either) and they couldn't substitute it which sucked), but I hope you have a good time! All I ever get is McDonald's or a buffet around here lol

Oh I loved my smoothie~! I drank it all day and felt good! There isn't but my friend showed me melted cheese made of almonds and. I need to know more lol . Panerra Bread does? Niiiice, I need to pop in there some time. I do all the time, but sometimes I'm in a rush, and one time I got chicken nuggets and came home with a chocolate chip cookie...which was the world's way of telling me I didn't need them I guess. But today I ordered through the Door Dash app, and I give permission for them to check, which the driver didn't as it was in a box since bunless, and it was right on top. I'm still a bit rankled by it. But I'm just so tired of fighting you know? It's frustrating having to tell someone over and over something. But I couldn't return it today or I would have. Sadly I forgot my card at home so I couldn't even buy an alternate at the vending machine, and they had a going away party but with tacos and I'm...still trying to force myself to eat new things. I had an ice cream two weeks ago. It was so good going down. So. Good. I regret everything.

Okay, step in the right direction! Here are my goals: Diet (pick two) Swap out one soda per day with water -this won't be too hard, I do this often when I'm tired of the sugar/caffeine Eat a vegetable with one meal every day - this is going to be rough, I don't do well with vegetables, but I'm trying to find ways to incorporate them. Fitness (pick one) Walk every day (5 minutes) - this could even be in the form of standing up at your desk and walking around the office. - also easy, I take the bus to halfway to my work so I can walk that route! Level Up Your Life (Pick One) Have troubles keeping the kitchen clean? Clean for 2 minutes each night before bed or first thing in the morning (when you're waiting for your coffee to brew, maybe?). Focus on one small area and keeping that one clean, and then once you're good at that one, start to expand it. -everything seemed...hard, for me, honestly. But this is a big thing I need to work on. Cleanliness. I tell myself I'm too tired, I can't do it. But I have to. I have to! I'll get it, I swear.

I have Crohn's/IBS which is aggravated by that which is golden and melty and good. Cheese. Milk, actually. I'm lactose intolerant and it's so hard. I love cheese melted on nachos, cheeseburgers, mac and cheese. I've had to replace it with Almond Milk which is fine but I've also had to live with not eating quite a huge chunk of foods that make up a huge portion of what I CAN eat (as a kid, vegetables made me vomit, so sadly I cringe really hard against them but I'm getting better!) But today, I ordered through Door Dash with the specifics NO CHEESE!! and no bun as I'm following Paleo right now. Guess what I got. Cheese. Don't worry, I'll just be horrendously ill Sunday, it's fine, it's fine. Anyway, the thing is, everyone says 'oh just return it' or 'just eat it' but I can't just do that. It's not a diet thing, I literally will be sick for hours a few days later, then NOTHING. I'm not hungry, not anything, for a while and it's not fair you know? I just. This is turning into a rant and I didn't mean to do that. Anyway, I ate the bun-less burger, which point given and point taketh away. On the upside, I had a banana, almond smoothie WITH KALE yesterday! And it didn't taste bad at all! I got it from Smoothie King, and I've gotta be honest, I'm the pickiest eater in the world so for me to be able to branch out is a huge step already! I just pray to the gods above that my stomach just says 'whatever' and lets it pass. Please. Just once.

Hi all! My name is Hailey, er, Cherry on here, haha. I joined actually way back when, as a young teen and I remember the forums weren't as clean and easy to navigate and I don't recall being able to make a character, but what I do know is, I'm so excited! I'm having to change my health habits because I have IBS/Crohn's and have two-three desk jobs. I never feel like I have time and I've been trying to force myself to make a schedule. I do go to the gym some weeks, Planet Fitness here, and I have started up to join a LARP group that plays every Saturday (although since I just started, I'm a little leery whacking someone with a stick). I'm really excited!!
