Hmhm. My favorite thing to make with strawberries and raspberries is chia seed pudding. Have you had it before? Exercise is going okay. I was doing 10mins MWF, but due to the sheer amount of pain I'm in, I lowered it to 8mins for now. I also clean Tuesday and Thursday. Then there's puppysitting. I don't just sit her in a kennel and call it neat. I play with her the entire time I have her. So that's at least two-three hours of standing at a time. With the arthritis in my back, it's a miracle I haven't just caved and told my brother I can't watch her anymore. He still hasn't paid me for it... Anyway! Peraperapera, Push ups are great, so is a good ol' fashion plank. Though I'd go to other core exercises than sit ups, since they can hurt your back. Personally my favorite one is... er... lemme finda picture... it engages the core while being good on the back, thighs, and shoulders.

I'm alive. Surviving the days long migraine along with some wisdom tooth pain. See dr on Monday. Probably won't have good things to say to me. I got problems. XD Don't forget that frozen fruits are just as good for you as fresh, and they're cheaper and keep longer. So that's an option, too. Are you exercising a decent amount?

Hm. Diy is the way to go when you can. There are unique ways to be more cost-effective, as well. A good example is kinoko mochiko(sweet, glutinous rice flour) to replace regular flour. It provides a chewy texture, if you've ever had a dango, it's like that. It isn't expensive and you can make a lot at one time. Do you like any fruits at all?

What sort of snacks do you find yourself reaching for? I'm sure there's low sugar options out there.

All things in moderation. Counting carbs can be difficult, but luckily there are increasingly more options for diabetics and pre-diabetics these days. It's a good excuse to reach outside your comfort zone and explore new and interesting foods.

I don't usually comment on things, as I try to mind my business, but I do find the way you lump all schizophrenics together a bit annoying. I'm a schizophrenic as well, but my experiences are quite different from yours. Most of the hallucinations I experience are benign in nature. Just random voices talking about random things, calling my name, seeing animals that aren't there, that sort of thing. Grouping us all together based on a limited scope can often lead to the harmful stereotypes that keep many of us from keeping with our treatment plans. Though to be fair, the anti-psychotics, especially the heavier ones, have awful side-effects. This is just my own opinion, too, of course, but then I don't force my opinion. I am more commenting to offer a different perspective as you've ask for that.

Ahoy. How is everyone surviving? Today the wildfire smoke has been so bad that my migraine is up to lvl 7. I'm in so much fucking pain I just wanna not. But I have so much work to do and no one else will step up to get shit done. Even breathing too loud hurts! I finally took my meds, now I'm gonna try to sleep. Everyone and everything can fuck off, except the shit that's on fire... gotta keep an eye on that.

Whale fak! Glad you're okay! That's a really clean hole to have fallen through. Almost cartoonish. I hope you're able to take it real easy!

Makes sense they do it that way, then. One is generally supposed to stir peanut butter before use. At least that's what I was taught. You're supposed to stir sour cream and other dairy products for a similar reason.
