But it is VERY urgent and has been hindering/embarrassing! That is so weird you had it for 4 months with nothing wrong. I don't feel stressed. But I will be stressed if I go back to work and still have diahrrhea!Meg Go Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707890742715926971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-41130885626106191182015-08-01T17:18:05.443-04:002015-08-01T17:18:05.443-04:00In 2009 I had diarrhea for months.

I gave stool samples and they never figured out what was wrong! But after like 4 months it passed. It may have been stress-related.<br /><br />Did you give a stool sample/check for bacteria/SIBO, that kind of stuff?Ali K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15736472530374069410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-59903978251326710012015-07-28T22:16:50.516-04:002015-07-28T22:16:50.516-04:00I never heard of elephant ears, I will have to goo...I never heard of elephant ears, I will have to google that!

So bad, yet so so good. There’s nothing wrong with a little splurge here and there. Plus, the fair only comes to town once a year (thank goodness). <br /><br />My favorite outlet store is probably the Lululemon outlet up in Washington. I can handle the prices a lot better and always find something I like. <br /><br />I know what you mean about guns and feeling safe. It's so sad that there have been so many gun related issues lately.

I was embarrassed. But not too embarrasse...I know!! I was embarrassed. But not too embarrassed to post about it on my blog. But that's because I know yas all have been there before and can relate!!<br /><br />That is very, very interesting what you bring up about outlets. See, I have never been a big outlet shopper because those big name brand places... well, even the outlets are more than what I want to spend on clothes! When there are places like Ross, Kohl's, and things like that, the Anne Taylor "outlet" is still twice as much as those places. Now NY&C- their "normal" store sale prices are things I am willing to pay. So then I go to the outlet and it's even more discounted than that! I tried on several things and they fit just as well as their normal store does. Maybe just the high end places do this? That is really shitty though to use material that is not as good. <br /><br />"Aspirational shopper" sounds so condescending. I think in the eyes of those high end stores, I will always be considered an aspirational shopper because I know you can get high quality things for a lot less money than what they charge. Sure, it won't be a name brand but who cares? One of the cutest dresses I wear to work (and I always get compliments on) is from K-MART. I got it like 7 years ago. It is the perfect material that doesn't wrinkle or pill. It is a sleeveless wrap dress. It's pink. I love it. And it's from freaking k-mart. So of course when someone compliments it I HAVE to tell them it's from kmart because I like to see their eyes bug out of their heads.<br /><br />Wow. I just talked way too much about clothes. :)Meg Go Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707890742715926971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-52227874542027509782015-07-27T20:53:07.015-04:002015-07-27T20:53:07.015-04:00Oh man, those boxes ... nothing like the cashier k...Oh man, those boxes ... nothing like the cashier knowing your business! Dealing with GI issues and getting back into running doesn't sound like a fun combination. I hope things clear up for you soon! <br /><br />That's exciting about the NY&Co outlet! I love NY&Co but don't have one near me any longer. I recently learned that outlets are kind of a sham. I always thought the outlets were always filled with overstock or items undesired at full price. It turns out most brands make clothing specifically for their outlets. They call it "designing for the aspirational shopper." That kind of ticked me off a little bit because I think it's totally unclear that is the case. I read that they use cheaper materials and things for their outlet brands. If that is the case then why do they show an original price and then a marked down price? It feels so sketchy to me and now I don't want to shop at outlets... but I do like Nordstrom Rack. I'm boycotting them due to this ... for at least the next 2 days ;)Kristinahttp://www.blogaboutrunning.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-43030164120670281372015-07-27T19:50:29.499-04:002015-07-27T19:50:29.499-04:00See I am the opposite, I think about how I could S...See I am the opposite, I think about how I could SURVIVE.

Seriously not fun. Try eating more bananas and rice in the meantime. Helps slow things down. That would scare me w/ the police patrolling the theater. We live in such crazy, scary times and I often think (which sounds bad): if I am involved in something like that I hope I just die quickly because I really don't think I could stand the trauma of that. I love getting hot dogs and funnel cake when we go anywhere they serve them (washed down w/ a beer of course). My fave is the Lucky Brand Jeans outlet!
