Would it be entirely inappropriate to post the I Love My Body Pledge next to the printed off poster of food portion sizes that went up today on the staff breakroom fridge? It will almost certainly be known throughout the office that I’m the one who put it up (as I’m the one who [...]

Following Beth’s example, I’m adopting the theme of Taciturn Tuesdays (of course, this assumes I’ll find time to take pictures, upload them, and comment on them. Ha!).
So, here’s a Taciturn Tuesday fantasy post…cut for your bandwidth pleasure.

Ciaran had a rash pop up a couple of days ago – my mom took him to the doctor this morning and e-mailed me the following report:
The doctor thinks Ciaran’s rash is most likely heat rash, outside chance it could be fungal. She said to let him run bare bottom as much as possible. [...]

When I started my MA, I was pretty confident about my skills. After all, I’d had two years out of college in the Real World [tm] and I knew myself pretty well, right? I’d go in there and amaze them with my savoir faire and confidence.
Or not.
Doing my MA was primarily an exercise [...]

The redeeming factor to yesterday evening (Graham was away, so I got to pick up Ciaran, bring him home, and keep him busy while I cooked dinner – the key that should have tipped me off to the fact that Ciaran really DID have a tummyache was that he was so flipping cuddly) was this [...]
That doesn’t quite have the same ring as the original, does it?
I’m tired. I know, I know, I’ve said that this whole week…but last night I didn’t get to bed until well after 10 PM, Ciaran having woken up with, what in parenting circles is known fondly as an assplosion. He’d been complaining [...]

Unlike M, my week has not contained masses of excitement. There was the appointment with the nutritionist and, yesterday, Graham and I went to the Sounders game (he and my dad have season tickets but my dad didn’t want to go to last night’s game, as he’s heading off on a weekend trip with [...]

Had a really, really good experience with the nutritionist at my initial appointment today. She spent around 75 minutes with me – she mentioned from the very beginning that she understood my desire to approach everything from a HAES (Health At Every Size) perspective and was very supportive about it.
We talked about a wide [...]

Two doses of ibuprofen today (generic, not really Advil) and this nagging headache that I had when I woke up is STILL not gone. I’m wondering if something the chiropractor did yesterday has set off a muscle spasm, or similar. I’ve got a 75-minute-long appointment with a nutritionist today and a tension headache [...]

Note to self: If I ever become a therapist (this is not going to happen, by the way), remind me to WORK EVENINGS.
Are there no therapists in Seattle who work with eating disordered patients in a health-at-every-size way, accept Regence, and also understand that some of us work full-time and can’t take two hours [...]
