[ - ] According to the FBI website, only 19 FBI members total died in the line of duty (but not adversarial combat); they are honored in the Hall of Honor. In 2008, only 58 officers total were killed. So 2 that were both involved in the Boston bombings die in one training activity and that is not weird to anyone else? I do not think there is some crazy conspiracy theory but you have to admit, something is suspicious. 12 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

Why not? Before their deaths, 19 members of the FBI have been killed in the line of duty, but not by an enemy. However, two FBI officers involved with the Boston bombing died in one routine training session, which is over a 10% increase in the total # of these sorts of death. And this is not yearly; this is the total. [ Reply | More

[ - ] in the same vein as the rehashing the past mortification thing, i was thinking tonight about a time we went to a wedding in DH's family. my MIL criticized the simple wrap dress i packed as too fancy and out of place. so i let her talk me into going to Walmart with her, and buying a white sleeveless button down blouse and an ugly madras skirt that she chose, which looked so ugly and dowdy and not my style at all. the whole wedding i was so uncomfortable. this was about 3 years ago and it still makes me cringe. i was 35. why couldn't i tell her that i would just wear the dress i packed? i am still upset with myself. 9 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

Can you try eating a container of yogurt or a Babybel cheese whenever you feel the urge to eat between meals?

If they didn't fix the problem, to try eating something with lots of protein. If I still needed the sugar, to have something small and sugary, like a Hershey Kiss. [ Reply | More

My jeans are size 16/18 and my bras are 40B. I eat Dunkin donuts for breakfast, and junk for lunch...dinner is pasta usually...I dot know how to stick to a diet. I've done them all, even WW (lost 12 lbs 2 yrs ago but dropped off when they started that new Core program). I have a gym membership but can't motivate myself to go (even though I drive by it every day after I leave work!). I don't know what to so. I breathe heavy after just climbing a set of stairs and my Knees hurt when I get up in the morning. I hate being fat..I don't even know why I can't do something about it. [ Reply | More

A bagel is better than a donut in that it has less sugar, but it has a lot more calories [ Reply | More

OP:That is exactly how I feel. If I told anyone how much (and possibly what) I ate, they would be shocked that I would even want to eat that much. I'm very tall, so I look "less" than I am on the scale and by size of pants. Health-wise I'm okay...though my doctor did say that it would be good for me to lose weight. I have issues with my knees and hips and she thinks losing weight would help with this. I wonder how people maintain the willpower to eat properly. As I said, I know what I *should* be eating... I just eat that, and much more! [ Reply | More

You have to shrink your stomach. You have to basically feel like you are starving for a couple of days. It sucks hardcore, but I have found that I am just not able to eat the amount I used to eat two years ago. One thing that helped me was FitnessPal app. Having to log everything you ate makes you really see how much you are overeating. [ Reply | More

Can you try and swap out at least some of the junk you eat? Don't starve yourself, but you also don't need to eat junk/high calorie food at every meal. Like if you have DD for breakfast, have a turkey sandwich for lunch instead of fast food. Or eat greek yogurt with some fruit and agave nectar or honey (and a little granola for some crunch/texture) for breakfast - it will give you protein, which will keep you full longer than donuts but is also sweet. Then for dinner, eat some protein and veggies instead of pasta, and if you need carbs (I do at every meal) have some brown rice. [ Reply | More

[ - ] Related to my depression or anxiety, I have spent years of my life regretting "bad" things I have done, particularly things said that I shouldn't have or the poor way I handled social interactions or whole relationships. The thing I can't get out of my head this week is from a few years ago when I was with my ex who had an at the time 18 year old daughter. I had a drink one night at dinner and was hanging out with her after we got home. I got stupid giddy and knowing she was into You Tube, I brought up that Sarah Silverman $king Ben Afleck video. How bad was this? I go over and over how I was trying to be cool to a high school student with this totally inappropriate thing. She basically laughed at me, like okay weirdo. She is a really sweet person and totally way more "cool" than I ever was or will be. I just feel like a creep about it and rehash it over and over. I don't think she thought badly of me but might someday think back at me as pathetic if she hasn't already done so. I basically keep people away from me now after so many social missteps it's not worth the grief. 14 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

Not really my point. I know she doesn't think of me, just ashamed of myself and wonder why I did such a thing. Alcohol, insecurity, nerves? Or is it really that bad? Her Dad didn't think so but he was wholly inappropriate himself. It was an abusive relationship and one his tactics was to get me to feel like I did or said the wrong things all the time. He saw my social anxiety and used it. [ Reply | More

You are better than you think. Please don't ruminate over the past. It is self destructive. That type of behavior can worsen depression or anxiety. [ Reply | More

You are me - I over analyze all of my actions and words and am mortified by them - truth is plenty of people are far worse but are not self aware - you are way too hard on yourself. Give yourself a big break and be kinder to yourself. Every time I f up - I say what's the worst that can happen, and tomorrow is a new day. Please stop! You're all good. [ Reply | More

You shouldn't spend so much time rehashing the past. You need therapy or medication for the anxiety issues. That being said, I actually don't understand why what you did was wrong at all. That video isn't too mature for an 18-year-old. This issue seems non-existent which makes me think your anxiety is even worse than you realize. [ Reply | More

Give yourself permission to let it go. Just the fact that you worry about it makes me think you must be a good person. You meant no harm, it's ok and it's time to let it go. [ Reply | More
