thank-you teachers for everything.
{{{Erin}}} good on you for knowing when to quit.
& Omnis you were right about that golf game. I clicked over to peek and see what it was like and ended up playing 18 holes.
It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

I'm chuckling again at the COMM in which I set up Tom. As I was getting in my car I heard the kid again, "Momma you just don't understand!" Which is also probably true.

Erin, I'm glad you are out of the toxic place. Best of luck finding something new quickly.
I just got back from my doctor's office and I was talking about pregnancy concerns (still a while off). I'm worried about pregnancy weight adding extra stress to my back and knees, so I'm trying to lose weight now (7 lbs so far). Anyway he said because I am heavy for my height that I would only need to gain 10-15 lbs when pregnant. Is he on crack? I've never heard of gaining so little weight when pregnant.
He also wants me to switch from effexor to either zoloft or prozac and go off adderall before getting pregnant, which I was expecting.

If you're overweight when you get pregnant, you can even safely lose weight during pregnancy, and I think in some cases it's recommended.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I'm heading to the doctor's myself, tomorrow afternoon. Some of it's the standard yearly check-up (about two years late--oops). Some of it is getting shots for my Senegal trip in December. But I'm also thinking of asking my doctor whether going on some anti-anxiety meds for a short while might be a good thing. I've found myself staring off into space hyperventilating more than once lately, and attempting to self-medicate with food and, occasionally, booze. Which doesn't strike me as terribly healthy. Does anyone have any suggestions, comments, stories of joy and/or warning about this sort of thing?

“Not dead yet!”

I was very overweight during my pregnancies and my doc recommended I not gain over 25 lbs, which is what I did with Nate and with Abby, it was only 21 lbs. They don't want you increasing your risk of gestational diabetes.

Thanks flea and Barb. I still want to lose weight and get in better shape before getting pregnant, but that's good to know.
Calli, I stress eat a lot and I haven't felt the urge to do that since starting effexor, fwiw.
