I’ve lost about 130 lbs on tirzepatide. I’ve been at maintenance (F 125 lbs 5’5”) for the last 18 months. However, I can’t help but always imagine myself as obese. For example, when playing with my child, I regularly worry I’ll crush him with my weight. I keep imagining myself as someone in a larger body. I’m very happy with what I see in the mirror but I am just so used to the thoughts I had as a bigger person. I’m surpassed by how “sticky” this mindset is.

I wonder how long it will take to change.

Jonathan Chait’s “Liberals Are Now Fighting a Two-Front War” is like a train wreck I can’t keep from reading. NYT has a similar article about the Democratic establishment’s efforts to “defeat” DSA candidates 🤦🏻‍♀️. Getting real tired of these wasted efforts.

To parents: do any of you know of any child psychologists and/or psychiatrists who help with anxiety, OCD, and learning disabilities in the area? My 8 year old worked with a great team affiliated with Mount Sinai in NYC. But I can’t keep making the hike up there every week.

Just lost power on Bloomfield between 3rd and 4th. Anybody else sitting in the dark this morning?

I am so over NJ Transit disasters impacting Path commuters. Last Friday and this morning was the same crap – packed like sardines. We need more trains if NJT can’t get it together.
