I’ve heard the excuse that the whole daylight savings shenanigans are to help farmers, but that’s always sounded silly.

Yes, I did and still do stress eat.

While I was on ozempic, I literally couldn’t eat and would feel nauseous if I ate anything after my meals. So I found other non-food based coping mechanisms - some healthy, some not so much, but that’s a battle for another day.

It still happens, but at far lower volumes. Like, I would destroy a large bag of chips in under 5 minutes back in the day while stressed about something. But now I sort of stop after like 10% of it because I feel physically sick at that point.

• HbA1C was at a pre-diabetic level and has gone back to a safe level.
• Probably a side effect of not drinking so much anymore- some liver test numbers look good now.
• knees don’t ache as much
• TMI alert: I can now sleep through the night without waking up to pee multiple times. (Early thirties fwiw)

My mental health had improved a ton, but it went to shit after the layoff, and am still working on that. 🤷‍♂️

I can fit into old clothes from uni again, does that count lol?

Oh yeah, the merging thing confused me in Alberta. People who were already on the highway would move over to the middle/left lanes when they saw someone trying to merge. Like whaaat? Are they stupid or something? Didn’t anyone teach them that the correct thing to do is to speed up in an attempt to stop new cars from entering the highway? It’s like they hate their home life and are not even trying to get home 0.2 seconds faster.

It was a sub’s name, a place to rant about Toronto. :)

There was construction going on every fucking where in Calgary, so I didn’t get to experience much of their city driving itself, so I can’t comment on that. Drivers were lovely outside of the city and in Edmonton though.

Thank you! :)

That sounds interesting, do you remember which book explored this?

Because I don’t want to eat before I’ve gotten rid of my morning breath.

Yup, this makes sense.

I totally get all of that. Wouldn’t all of that hold true if you were having breakfast on a table/kitchen island too though? I’m specifically confused about what makes having it in bed special.

I suppose you don’t HAVE to. But I find it unhygienic to eat before brushing my teeth as soon as I wake up. Might just be my personal issue. 🤷‍♂️
