I just made myself throw up my lunch in a plastic bag at my desk at work. What should I do?

What should I do?
I just made myself throw up my lunch in a plastic bag at my desk at work. I'm starting to become bulimic again, after years of stopping. What should I do? I see a trainer for excercise twice a week. Should I tell him?



Answer
go to the bathroom and throw away the bag then rinse your mouth

then report this in the women's health section

you need to seek therapy - period

How much do you think is appropriate to spend on Christmas presents amongst women friends?

We have a group of 6 friends...all women & we are planning to do a Christmas gift exchange.
What do you think is the appropriate amount to spend?
I think that $50 is more than sufficient with the current economy & all.
Some people want to spend $100 - but I think this is too much as one of our group has young children & another has been laid off.
Am I being cheap????



Answer
I think $10 is fine. That's enough for a humorous cat book or some spring bulbs or packages of seeds or a small plant or clever bookmarks or cloth grocery bags (or the $1 ones from Trader Joe's that I gave one year) or some kind of ornament, like the one I got made in a Third World country with shiny magazine pages folded up & glued to an ornament or a necklace (like the $1 one I bought) or cat statue ($5) from flea market or thrift shop...You get the idea...something fun that says you care, but also something that's well, cheap. It's truly the thought that counts. Sometimes it really would be easier to spend more, but what for?

Here's another idea: Get a mug from a thrift store--I like the clear glass ones--& fill it with homemade cookies & tie it with a pretty ribbon. Or bake mini-loaves of bread or whatever, just enough for a single gal to slice & enjoy for a couple of days during the holidays.

Or how about a bottle of sparkling juice or flavored water in one of those bottle-sized gift bags, just in time for the New Year. Lots of us, as we get older, are happy if it's not wine or something with alcohol. It may be more welcome as a party gift if it's not, especially with all the crack-downs on drunken driving.

Again, what's that $50-$100 idea? We just never did that. Better to use it on family or 5 toys for needy kids or other charity donation or food for ourselves or just about anything. As you say, it's ridiculous to spend so much in this economy, & you certainly don't want people to feel indebted to spend this much just to maintain the friendship. Better to spend $20 per person & enjoy a special lunch together or pool your money to buy treats for coffee & brunch at someone's house.

Now that I think about it, why not forget the whole gift thing & host a brunch. Find out what a local women's shelter could use: new socks, kids' books, just little gifts, or whatever, & have each person bring that item instead of having an expensive gift exchange. Be the leader & get several friends to agree on that idea, & then you're on to it.

Alternatively, you could host a cookie exchange or a paperback book exchange, or whatever. Let your interests be your guide.

Enjoy!
