Your muscles hold on to water to repair themselves. Could be that.0 -

Yeah, I know it's water weight, it just sucks to see on the scale. It's tough for me to lose pounds when I'm strength training.
ETA to add that I'm not one of those "I'm working out and not losing weight!!!!" people, lol. Just saying it's frustrating when you've become as addicted to the scale as I am! I need to work on that, too...0 -
Confession.... I hardly ever log my foods. It's not because I am hiding anything but moreso because I've been calorie counting for sooo long along with the fact I 'rut eat' a lot, my mind automatically keeps a running total for each day. I am always under my goal anyways so the only time I log is when I am eating something bad or new and high calorie. I also HAAATE trying to find new foods and the stupid barcode scanner doesn't work on my version of Android OS.
Also, starting in late January at 314'ish. I am 52 lbs down as of today. 261. Picking up a 45 lb plate and thinking about stuffing that back on to my body makes me sick. >_<0 -

that new reception girl is someones daughter too y'know, and I'm not sure that is a good example of being a man now is it?
I confess: I am judging you for judging that post...BUT his friends list consists almost entirely of attractive females with their make-up covered faces and body parts exposed....I smell a misogynist.
I normally skip past those posts, but that made me a little sick in my mouth and had to see what kind of creep we are dealing with. Turns out to be a hypocritical one. So I felt a little urge to publicly shame him. Judge all you want, if I found out a man did that at my place of work or that new receptionist was my {hypothetical} daughter, he would be one testicle missing.
Edited because men are men, whatever, but don't make it public, I don't want that visual thanks
Edit again because: Why are you judging me for judging that? (out of curiosity, not picking a fight), it's disgusting and offensive.
Because it's supposed to be a 'NO JUDGEMENT' thread. /irony
The fact is, I totally agree with you and you were right to call him on his bullsmurf. Imagine if the woman herself found out about his 'fantasizing'. Life is NOT a porno, she would likely be horribly offended and never want to work near you again, dude.
It also definitely had the air of a confession that was merely posted to try and stir stuff up.
Men ARE men but, in my opinion, grown men don't 'beat off' to the new receptionist while at work. They should wait until they get home for that kind of thing. Do WORK at work. Or...post on a forum about the crappy way you've been eating lately and how you have skipped workouts and how you are posting things at work when you really should be working(I am guilty of all these things).
Also, I noted in my post that he was likely a misogynistic hypocrite based on his friends list, which, I confess, was also me judging him.
TL;DR: I wasn't ACTUALLY judging you. I was agreeing with you and then confessing my own judgement of 'Yeah, this dude is a misogynistic hypocrite who should keep his self love schedule to himself'.
ETA: Some things just come across poorly in textual format. Or maybe I am slightly terrible at expressing myself in the way I actually intend...
I also think he's the same man who had the sleeping girlfriend.
I can confirm this.
ETA: Quotes
Well if I knew this man IRL I would report him to the police as a predator and a threat to society. (Little bit too much?) As I said earlier I put my big girl panties on this morning, I've gone all feminist, did my Stonglift session at the gym and I'm PUMPED! well... after my 15min accidental nap at my desk.
I think napping at your desk is awesome!
Put on your big girl panties and suck it up cupcake are favourite phrases of mine
My girlfriend hates them
At work all I hear is "*insert name* finally put his big boy pants on and done the job" so I just adapted it to big girl panties. I didn't realise other people said it until now. Kinda obvious now I think about it.0 -

I've successfully reversed my insulin resistance, but I've been too scared to come off the Metformin - I think I convinced myself that it was the only reason I've successfully lost the 69 pounds - that I'm incapable of doing it on my own.
I did stop, as of Wednesday. I still scared
@TheVirgoddess, if Metformin alone were any sort of panacea for insulin resistance, and pre-diabetes -- let alone, if it were a sole factor to such significant weight loss (which IR would seem to do its darndest to 'fight tooth and nail') -- it would be considered a form of 'magic bullet' that millions would find success with... but that doesn't reflect what the reality is -- and that is, that not only do millions not find 'slam-dunk' success with such, but... for IR *reversal*, work is required -- reversal itself doesn't happen at the behest of Metformin... and in addition to more mindful eating... physical activity is a very important element...
Per the SW spec in your profile, that 69 pounds of the overall total that you've lost represents *30%* of your SW -- and there is no way on earth that Metformin gets to 'go to the podium', and 'accept the award', for the remarkable accomplishment in question...
...just as being mindful of what you ate (a *very* important factor, in and of itself, but especially with IR), and eating less than what you burned, were critical to the outcome you've achieved, so, too, was Metformin an element -- but not the only one -- and in particular, it provides a notable assist in the beginning, when reversing insulin resistance can seem like attempting to do battle with a metabolic tidal wave...
...and the more weight that you lost -- and specifically, the more fat that you lost -- the more contributing factors to IR (including hormonal aspects (involved with IR as experienced by many women, in particular, and as secreted by fat cells)) that were gradually being 'removed from the equation'...
It isn't Metformin that gets to 'take a bow' -- it's that remarkable being who you see when you look in a mirror -- it's *you*... YOU did the hard work... YOU accomplished the reversal... Metformin was a tool whose assist in the beginning, in particular, is to be appreciated, and whose ongoing assist can involve its being a pivotal psychological presence, as a cooperative 'backup' of sorts, while one's body re-establishes new metabolic 'set points', and gets its endocrinological 'house' 'in order' (after its having been temporarily 'jacked' -- and 'hijacked' -- by some negative hormonal consequences associated with increased weight and fat)... additionally, Metformin can technically be of cooperative assistance during various 'plateaus' -- and especially those experienced in conjunction with the body acquiring new metabolic 'set points' (and especially if/when being 'wrested' from the 'grip' of IR) -- which can, at times, be of long enough length (time-wise) to potentially discourage various folks (or otherwise give a misimpression that 'nothing's happening', or 'what I'm doing isn't making a difference')... so, again, Metformin can provide a form of assistance that includes potentially pivotal psychological components...
@TheVirgoddess, YOU rocked the weight loss... the use of Metformin was akin to using any of various 'tools' that serve a specific purpose, for a specific length of time... in a way, Metformin can be -- and for so many -- a kind of IR-reversal form of 'training wheels' (well, sort of)... reversing IR -- and especially for women, for which additional endocrinological aspects are often involved -- is most difficult in the initial timeframe (and discouragingly formidable, for many)... Metformin can provide a crucial means of 'getting over that initial hump', so to speak -- and it's a very important element... without it, it can be akin to attempting to 'start a car', but with a carburetor that's flooded... with Metformin, the 'flood' can be kept more in check, and allow for a 'starting' of 'the engine'... (and then 'hitting the highway' of weight loss... fat loss... and IR reversal -- but with the individual in question 'doing the work' associated with 'moving' and 'fueling' the 'vehicle' in question)...
...continue with mindful eating... and continue with physical activity (and keep including a strength component)... and you can continue to keep IR 'in the rearview mirror'... you've got this, @TheVirgoddess... WAY. TO. GO. !!!
< am high-fiving you with such force that our hands are now hurting... lol >
Oh wow - thank you so much for that. I really appreciate your words. I met my goal this week and a part of me was still resistant to the idea that I did this - but your words just gave me the boost I needed to own, completely, what I've done for myself.
Thank you, so very much.0 -
I just thought about @ShibaEars yesterday, too! But, we have a few posters on vacation. @FluffySandwich is on vacation, right? Or, I could be completely wrong. I'm terrible at remembering details. Things move so fast here!
I was thinking the same thing this morning, I thought ShibaEars came back because I remember saying I hadn't seen her white doggy for a while. I hope she's ok. FluffySandwich is on holiday because she was saying about trying on swimming costumes.0 -
@Italian_Buju That just really sucks for you and your son. Thinking of someone just walking bye and stealing bikes just gets me mad.
Love your pets @kelly_c_77 !
Heal quickly @kellienw335 ! I went nuts earlier this year when I couldn't really use my legs to even walk.
Vomiting and number two sicknesses are just awful for everyone around @raelynnsmama52512 . I hope the kiddo improves soon.
@kecmw25 I've fallen twice while walking family dogs and both times they just stood there looking confused. I hope you're okay!
I think Fear the Walking Dead is an awful title but one of the trailers that aired during Mad Men really hyped me, especially now that Hannibal is canceled.

I tripped and fell during my run this morning. I am thankful that my dog showed geniune concern for me instead of laughing.
Awww I hope you're okay, the bolded did make me smile though. I always found it funny how they instantly start sniffing your face to see if you're okay. Almost like they are trying to sniff out tears. Or was that just my dog?0 -

I know most guys are like that but I just don't want to think/hear about it because it makes me feel bad for some reason. Ignorance sometimes really is bliss...No most men aren't like that or at least myself and the guys I know.True, most men aren't like that, but men like that are more vocal!Susieq_1994 wrote: »As a woman myself, I didn't think I could really speak up about it with much surety, but I agree--It's a case of the minority making the majority look nasty. [...] And I doubt there are many men who are nasty/immoral enough to do that kind of thing in a professional setting, no matter what they might do in the privacy of their homes.
@Just_Ceci, not surprisingly, there are also men like that who are not vocal about it... or who are otherwise smart enough to 'keep it under wraps'... or who would seemingly only 'share' such crap with 'others of their kind' (a few of which I happened to (unfortunately) be physically close 'enough' to, one day, several years ago... and overheard... and they seemed to be oblivious to the fact that someone/anyone/I could hear them... they were medical students... and one of them was going to be starting his gynecology rotation the following week... and what I heard him say resulted in my from-that-day-forward disallowing any male medical student to ever be present for any gynecological anything that I would ever need done in any teaching facility... suffice it to say, his comments about what he looked forward to, with pelvic exams, was not something I'll ever forget)...
...and while that was one male, I'm also aware that something akin to 'the greater numbers associated with a vocal minority' aspect of 'customer service comments' whatnot would seem to apply -- for every one person who 'speaks up', there are many more who remain silent -- though of a similar mindset/reaction/'take'...
@Susieq_1994, while I agree that there are likely not a lot of men who would actually engage in 'the act in question' in a professional setting, it doesn't mean that there aren't more who think about doing so, or who otherwise 'wait until they get home'...
...and while no actual 'percentage' could be realistically ascribed to 'what fraction of men are like that', it goes without saying that the world would likely be a far more intimidating and fear-laden 'place' for women, were such men's thoughts to be known by every woman whose body any such man were to 'see'...
While I see your point, here's something that a lot of people don't stop to consider when writing off people as nasty or vulgar:
Humans are sexual beings; there's no doubt about that. Our bodies were created in a way that is attractive to each other, and in a way that causes us to be aroused by the bodies of those that we define as attractive. This applies to both males and females. Sexual thoughts and fantasies are a natural part of ALL of us, whether we like it or not, and labeling someone as a bad or nasty person for thinking those sorts of thoughts about an attractive person would mean labeling most of the world as such
What would be nasty, vulgar, or inappropriate is treating or regarding them as nothing but an object of desire and thinking of them as such--which is the vibe I got from the original post being discussed. I think someone is nasty or vulgar if they go around announcing that they did something like that or discussed it in an open group of other people. I also find it nasty, unethical, and inappropriate if someone did that in a professional environment--we aren't animals, and we should be able to control ourselves.
The Islamic side of the matter is a whole other novel that I won't go into, but to make it short, Islam recognizes the above as fact of our human-ness.
Just my two cents--I hope I came across clearly. Although considering how long it is, there might be a whole dollar in there...
Agreed 100% ain't nothing wrong with that. Bolded agreed 1000%

Ugh. I applied for a promotion at work and my interview was scheduled for tomorrow at 9. I was super psyched and totally ready but I was just rescheduled for Monday. My whole groove is thrown off! Confession: this makes me want to drink all the beer.0

Confession: I'm feeling really panicky/anxious and have been for the last two hours. My husband has a 10 PM to midnight exam (nice timing, right?!) and I really hate being alone at night. It's currently 12:12 and I'm hoping he'll be home soon.
I'm also kind of depressed about the fact that I ate so many butterscotch chips that even with SIX HUNDRED CALORIES burned in more than two hours of exercise, I'm still over my calorie goal. What is WRONG with me!?
By the way, you guys, I have a question. MFP says I burnt 1100 calories with my exercise burn, and I never trust it. My stationary bike says 600, but all the sites I've been able to find say I burned 800-1000. I don't own an HRM, and I can't find a site where I can plug in the amount of miles I pedaled or the average speed I maintained, so I don't know what to trust. What do you all think?
Editing to add: For stats, I did a little over 130 minutes with an average speed of slightly over 15 miles per hour and rode for a total of 30.5 miles, according to the monitor on my bike. My height is 1.7 meters or 5'6ish, and my current weight is (Ugh) 70 kg or 154 lbs. Any help is appreciated.0 -

Everywhere I looked said moderate effort (and you are borderline vigorous) says 450 calories per hour.
If you want to be safe I'd say 800 would be conservative. I even tried plugging I your stats but that gave me 1800.
I hope that helps.0 -

I had a similar thing happen at work recently. I had to do a driving test (driving is sort of a phobia-I try to avoid driving if possible).

I think someone on a pc could just start a new thread and link to this one with an explanation post as the first post.
Since our problem doesn't seem to be getting fixed.
Anyone think that is an idea?0 -

It just doesn't look good on me. I don't like ponytails either so at some point the long hair has to go I guess. The main issue I think is that I think it makes my double chin (there's some loose skin in there) more noticeable.
Just bleh.
Sometimes seriously it's totally depressing to have done all that work and realize that I'll never like the way I look...
Sorry you are feeling that way. I feel the same way as well. I'm always thinking, even if/when I lose the weight again I still have so many other issues that I don't like (I will have loose skin, my teeth are crooked, I will always have huge legs etc).
I do have to say that I think you look pretty from what I can see in the profile picture. You actually look a lot like someone I work with. We are always hardest on ourselves of course. I wonder if anyone else even notices your chin.
Hopefully the hair will grow out a little bit and you will like it better.0 -

Aww. I hope you still get prepared and get your groove back in time for the interview. Good luck!!
I had a similar thing happen at work recently. I had to do a driving test (driving is sort of a phobia-I try to avoid driving if possible). So my test was scheduled and I stressed out all day and was ready to get it over with. I get to the car and they can't find the keys so they have to reschedule for the next afternoon. I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Another night/day of stress. I passed but talked to HR so I'm on the bottom of the driving list.
At first I read that as passed out and I thought oh dear that couldn't have been good when she was driving. I Think the heat is getting to me
I kind of wished I had just so they know how anxious it did make me.
