  1. 28F and I just took up running about 3 months ago. I've always been fascinated by runners, their strength and determination, but just always thought I was too overweight for it. About 10 months ago I started eating healthier and doing basic exercises and lost 30 pounds in about 5 months. I then saw some one on tiktok who was a plus-size runner and she inspired me to start this running journey. Using the None to Run app, I've gone from getting out of breath in 30 seconds to now running 40 minutes without stopping. I'm training for my first 5K in three weeks. I'm very slow (my average mile pace is 15-16 minutes) but so far I've been able to work up to doing 4k without stopping. Not that it matters, but I've also lost another 15 pounds since starting 3 months ago. I've been lurking on this sub for over a month now for advice, tips, strength to keep going, etc.

  2. YTA. If I were her, I’d be thinking about divorce.

  3. I'm so sorry for this. It's a terrible situation. I am deeply sorry for your loss. Re-homing her sounds like the best option. Your baby comes first.

  4. I feel you. Definitely worse than heart break. I've been in the bargaining stage and wish that I was going through a different type of pain.

  5. Yes, very much so. My dog who was only 2 got hit by a car last week. I purchased a GPS tracker for my other dog to make sure he never escapes and gets far. It's so hard, I can't imagine going through another loss. I'm guarding him with my life now and am making him a priority. Sending you love during this hard time.

  6. I also struggle being an agnostic and not knowing where my dog is at. Sending you love during this difficult time. You got many great years with him, cherish that during these hard times.

  7. Beautiful. I too am thinking of getting a tattoo in her honor.

  8. I completely understand your dilemma, both glad your other dog is ok but also upset that they are not mourning like we are. My dogs are/were 16 and 15. The 15 year old passed just last month. My 16 year old doesn’t seem to care one bit. I was mourning hard and still am. How can they have lived together for over 10 years and she still doesn’t care that he is gone. I am glad she isn’t upset but I also wish she would care at least a little bit. Instead it’s almost like she’s glad he’s gone so she never has to fight over who gets moms lap or worry that someone will steal her food. None of that ever happened but she always worried about it and now doesn’t have to. I think I just wish she had some response to the loss, even just the slightest bit.

  9. Literally how I'm feeling too. I guess I just expected more from him. Now I'm doubting his intelligence which I know is silly. My family's dog hasn't noticed either and I guess they are content that they have himself. It's just hurtful because my heart feels empty without her but they have no care in the world.

  10. I know how you feel. I was devastated to lose one of my cats last summer. My surviving cat not only didn’t seem to mind, she is actually pretty happy about her “only cat” status. It makes me sad, but I guess I’d be sadder if she were in deep mourning.

  11. I struggle with those comments too. I know people mean well but still. Some others I struggle with are

  12. I’m in the same boat. My baby was only two and she got hit by a car.

  13. I lost my baby on Monday too. I’m so sorry for you, I am right here trying to navigate all of it too. It just feels like a brick on my chest all the time.

  14. Thank you for your words. <3 Yes, the weather has been bad and it finally got sunny and nice today so I decided to let my dog stay outside for some time since he's been cooped up because of the rain. I was very scared to do it, because they had both escaped and only one of them came back.

  15. I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my beagle this week. I wish I had more comforting words but at least you spent his last day with him and he know he was loved to his very last breath. Sending you love. ❤️

  16. Thank you stranger. For me this is reality. I just feel like the truth is the truth no matter how hard it is or how much it hurts. If I didn’t fall asleep working on that stupid final my son might be alive. Just maybe. The world and me will never know and that makes it 10x more traumatic.

  17. In no way was it your fault. Please, in order to find peace you have to forgive yourself. Your dog wouldn't want you to be in this pain. Even though they aren't here anymore, we have to honor their memory. And being the happiest version of yourself is a way to do it. Or if you have any other pets or adopt one in the future. -- give your all to them. That's what I'm doing right now with my other beagle.

  18. I don’t think I’ll move on from this pain. I do, however want to honor my boy. I’ve decided I’m going to get my house together and foster. I may not be able to give another pup a furever home but I will surely give them my all until they find one. :) Thank you so much for hearing me out and responding. I’m so so sorry for your loss and hope you are well in your future days. Give your beagle lots of love and treats and time outside for me! <3

  19. The pain will always be there, but it will get easier to manage. I have experienced that from my granpa's death. This feels more personal tbh. She was my life.

  20. Hi OP! Just got my first micro needling session done; and I paid for a years membership at my MedSpa. Any update on your progress?

  21. Definitely work. I want to be able to at least function.

  22. I just joined this subreddit and don’t know what the finger reference means. 🥲🥲🥲

  23. It comes from the "hey class, today were going to finger paint, kid named paint" meme, where comically the author subverted expectations by instead stating "hey class, today were going to finger paint, kid named finger". Furthermore, in the show Jimmy claims as to have "never laid a finger on him" when referring to Ermentraut. So below the comical meme was a picture of Mike, thus he became known as the "Kid named finger".
