The bragging and mutual support thread

No cow? Christ, that's gotta be rough.

I need a nude back or torso photograph for an event invitation I'm making. It needs to be copyright-free. I've spent my eyes searching online. Help! Anyone know of any sites? Can't be expensive. It can even be a drawing. I just need it to be naked.

The help finding this would be supporting an af member, because it helps my poetry event, so I thought this went well here. Heh heh

Ummmm. . don't YOU have a torso?

Holy cow!  That's miraculous!

No cow, no miracle, just hard work.

I have to say that I'm bordering on inspired.  Keep posting, cuz you can be our trailblazer, k?

Yeah, I never thought I'd see the day when I'd voluntarily give up most red meat - I loves me a good steak, burger or lamb chop. It's a rare treat now. Salmon is the new red meat.

The thing of it is - it's a lot easier to put up big weight loss numbers when you have a long way to go. The plan says I've got a year or more to go.

The real trick is going to be keeping the weight off. My diet is more of a lifestyle change and so should be sustainable so long as I stay on track. There is such an abundance of food in this country - much of it utter shit for your health - that it is really easy to lose control.of your weight.

I have been dealing with an old woman at work who thinks it is fun to play games by making me angry. I have been so angry it has made me want to walk out of there a few times and never return.

I decided that I should become my former persona from previous jobs; the gay deli bitch.

I am going to teach her a lesson. One does not mess with the gay deli bitch.

Eh! Kindle! ( Same tone of voice as Seinfeld saying "Newman!")

This is not the post I meant. I would eat at the deli where the gay deli bitch works though!

I used to eat beef or lamb four or five nights a week. Down to about once a week now, and yeah, "treat" is the right word. I even have the occasional vegetarian day ... Dad will forgive me.

I've been getting treatment for my mental health and will hear back in a few weeks about diagnosis for Aspergers. I want to be a source of joy to my friends and family, not a source of misery... mental health is essential. I don't want to be a burden I want to be the happy turtle this forum knows and loves.

I've started being more active and trying to enjoy life again. The last year and a half have been a complete drag with nothing but work and I completely burnt myself out. The other weekend I went paragliding for the first time in 5 years. First flight after a long time off is always terrifying. Tuesday I went scuba diving in a 5 metre swimming pool and I hadn't gone diving for 14 years. I just hope I can find another job in Edinburgh so I can continue living here for another year. I can't afford to move again for a while.
