MFP now supports sub-1.2k calorie counts?

Not sure what to flair this as- and also plz don’t take this down for ED behavior I swear it’s not! I just noticed after accidentally not logging all my food!

Previously if you only logged less than like 1k cals or something it wouldn’t let you close out the day and get your weekly tracking etc right? Well I (again. accidentally!) only logged half my food for the day and it had no problem with it? I then went and checked and it lets me set whatever calorie goal I want, with just a “this is unhealthy” disclaimer.

I honestly find this concerning with the rise in Ozempic and disordered and restrictive eating habits. Was it always this way? Anyone else notice this? Am I imagining that it used to bar disordered goals?

WIBTBF If I sold a gift given to me by a friend?

I have been going through my old clothes since I’ve moved since there is a lot I don’t wear. I’m donating a lot of it and selling the “name brand” stuff online (funds from which will probably just get a few new clothes to replace stuff)

I have this pair of Doc Martens that were given to me as a gift my a friend probably 3ish years ago. I love them dearly and it was such a thoughtful gift… but unfortunately they don’t fit. I’ve tried to wear them a few times hoping they’d stretch out but they aren’t leather, and I just don’t think there’s much go be done. I’m an avid DMs wearer so I know what’s normal vs too small.

Would it be dickish to sell them used on depop or wherever? I’d feel bad about selling them as I appreciate the gift but I also don’t want them to just sit and collect dust in my closet. Should I reach out and tell her or do you think that’s doing too much, as it was 3 years ago it’s not like they can be returned or exchanged normally.

How do I feel safe in my own home?

My husband and I recently purchased an adorable home in a great area, extremely safe. But the issue is I cannot relax, especially when he isn’t home.

Despite the fact we are out in the proverbial boonies and no one is accidentally coming upon our house, and we have the smallest house in about a 5 mile radius I am almost constantly afraid someone is going to break in at night. I am up awake late into the night checking windows and locks, and up early from stress and anxiety. I am just used to living in crappy little apartments with no windows, and no way to easily get in I feel exposed.

I think this stems from when I was a child, my neighbor used to watch me sleep from my bedroom window and I had her him check the lock a few times. So I am mostly afraid of someone coming in and assaulting or killing me- I don’t particularly care about burglary.

Point is- what do i do? i’m planning on getting a gun soon, to sleep next to. but this fear seems mostly illogical, so i don’t know how much a gun will help. does/did anyone else have a similar problem?

Cut off my in-laws for being MAGA. But I’m conflicted…

Not sure if this is the right place, but I cut off my in-laws for being MAGA. They always have been but ever since the election, I just see all the awful things happening and I think of them and how they endorse all of it and I just can’t get past that anymore. They are the type of people to smooth things over and pretend like everything is fine, when really no one actually knows anyone. They all just pretend.

Anyway there’s a big family event coming up- and I’ve been invited (well. they told my husband i was invited, no one has reached out to me) I want to support my in-laws since they do love me, in their own type of way i guess. But in a very real way, they hate me and everything I live for. I just am too exhausted to try and reconcile those two things, not to mention I hate everything they stand for and want absolutely nothing to do with it.

Anyway I’m just not sure what to do about this event coming up, I basically told them “I don’t hate you, I don’t want any apologies I just need a break because of all your bigotry”, and that still stands but I feel like if i miss this event i’ll be an asshole and I should just grin and bear it. Idk, has anyone else been dealing with this?

Having a little bad day. How do you guys process negative thoughts/worries?

Won’t go into details bcuz it’s not relevant- I’m not currently sick just having bad mentals.

I recently paused therapy- it was online and not intensive enough. I was diagnosed with OCD & Emet but I don’t really know what I’m supposed to do about it. Like I understand the diagnosis and I was doing exposure therapy but it was just triggering and made me get worse. Like I don’t understand how it’s supposed to be helpful.

Anyway how do you guys cope with bad nights? I know the rule is “accept the unknown” and whatever. Which I’m trying, but what do I do? Like I want to go to sleep and I’m miserable and anxious.

What should my (F26) husband (M28) get me for our anniversary?

So my husband and my first anniversary is upcoming, and he’s asked for gift ideas and I’m at a blank!! He’s asked me for general advice or tips but I genuinely can’t think of anything. I got him something very thoughtful and pretty expensive for a present- so I know he would want to get me something within a similar ballpark.

My thought was something experience related, rather than like- jewelry or perfume. What “romance” gifts have you given or received that you loved? Not something like a Nintendo or a Kitchen-aid.

TD;LR- Romantic gift ideas for our first anniversary!
