hi all, so I'm currently losing weight, from a highest of 104.8kgs and now sitting at 78.4kgs. GLP1, Strong deficit and Gym. I've been over 75 since around 2017 and slowly ballooned up with a few tries and losing 10kgs then gaining it back and more. so it's been a while. and before that, I sat around 65-68 comfortably. but at the moment I had a very bad relationship with my body image, a shitty ex that would make it worse, and a raging eating disorder that went on and I think I'm "clean" since 2024. not that I'll ever be normal around food but I guess that's on having an ed since 2010.

My current and main goal is 66kgs, to be just out of the overweight category (165cm) and I like what my body used to look like back then. But of course, I was younger and looked better than I will now because of all the weight changes and also age. I'm thinking that maybe I could try and get to 60 once I'm down to 66, but don't know if I'm falling into older patterns. 60 is perfectly healthy for my height and I know I could sustain it (or have it as an all time low and stay between that and 63-65 max after that). idk. I know I want to be strong too so I'm strength training and maybe that will also make me look way different than I expect once I get to 66 disregarding age and stretched skin etc. I also want a breastlift and reduction and some weight will be gone there and I think I want to be as lean as I can for that surgery, but not too lean so that I suffer with the ladies growing after the surgery BC of fat (or just hormones). I think that's a major factor since if it were just getting to a weight I can just wait and see lol. my hope is to be at my main goal weight by end of year or march next year.

anyway end of rant/vent, hope you all are having a great day and journey. sorry for the rambling!

Hola gente, se acaba de jubilar un pariente y lamentablemente por más de que no cobra la mínima, por cuestiones psiquiátricas y económicas la idea es que ingrese a un geriátrico lo antes posible. Mientras tanto se maneja con acompañante terapéutico pero es un insostenible en esta economía. Tuvieron parientes en esta situación? Cuánto tardó en salirle un geriátrico por PAMI? Considerando que está recién jubilado, nivel cobra su primera jubilación estos dias, así que ni Pami tiene activado. Se que el trámite se arranca con el médico de cabecera y derivaciones así que por ahí arrancaremos pero me intriga saber cuánto puede tardar sobretodo porque es una persona joven (60 años) y q necesita asistencia psiquiatrica y capaz no es el caso más común.

Hi everyone, first post here. In 2024 I noticed the syncronicities of my massive depression + ADHD + anxiety bout and my cycle, talked with my therapist and psychiatrist and the latter one prescribed risperidone for my symptoms which at the moment were debilitating. I was frozen. Eventually the meds did an amazing job and I started to feel alive for the first time... ever, or since I was very young maybe, and it was awesome. This year my psych suggested to end the risperidone treatment and I was like of course! since I also was/am dealing with metabolic syndrome because of it and going off of it made sense. also in treatment with tirzepatide. ok so now, a few months off risperidone and I'm starting to feel very weird. The thoughts are not fun, and around 10 days before my period... they begin. I've talked to my endocrinologist and she referred me to gyno so that they can put me on contraceptives. I haven't been on them since like 2021 because I had my tubes tied... but before that I was on them non stop since 2012. I don't know what to expect of the treatment since it's also my most mentally stable (except the pmdd lol) moment since I ever took them so I'm just wondering.

overall i'm very annoyed that I'm going through this again. I don't know if some feelings/thoughts I'm having are genuine or due to the insanity this causes me. I'm scared the pills won't work and I'll have to go on risperidone forever and my metabolism will be fucked. or that the contraceptives will fuck with it. idk. I'm working hard to lose weight too and I'm scared it'll revert that so i'm overall a mess.

tomorrow I pick up the pills and we'll see where it takes me

sorry for rambling :(
