WEIGHT LOSS ADVICE FROM FAT PEOPLE!!!!!!!! Don't want to offend our plus sizers who are actively seeking a healthier lifestyle. For the other 98%: nobody wants weight loss advice from fat people!!! If I needed advice on how to get fatter I would gladly have that 2 second conversation. Getting fat is easy! You can do it without even trying! Trust me, I know!!!
This is one of those things I rant about... but in reverse. When a thinner person who has never really had a weight problem uses the 10lbs they lost as an example on how I should lose 100lbs... I just sit there with a fake smile.
MOST of the time, I know more than that person because I HAVE had to struggle through this for a long time and have had to research. So when a thin person is suggesting I should workout more, or do a juice fast, or something that I know won't work (probably because I've tried it lol).... I just smile and nod.8 -
Septic tanks...awful awful stupid part of my home. Where am I going to come up with extra $400...dont want to deal with this *kitten* 😬😒3

The loss of common sense over political agendas and extreme bias is mind numbing. Doesnt matter which side of the aisle you're on, both sides are frustrating as *kitten*.9

My new rant: Hair dressers who get really self-righteous about the fact that they can are the only trained professionals who can do hair. If I want to cut my hair and it isn't 100% perfect, I can do that because it's my hair! Don't treat me like I just performed brain surgery on myself.
I grew up in the late 90's/ early 2000's with THICK. curly. frizzy. fine. hair. that no hairdresser knew what to do with at the time. So I had to figure out how to tame that mess without a flat iron.
If you don't thin my hair out enough.. I'm going to thin it. If you don't cut the layers the way that I like.. I'm going to do it myself.4 -

Preach it. I haven’t been to a salon in over 7 years because she didn’t listen and cut my hair way short. I have trust issues now. And...I am in fact a licensed (non working) hair stylist.2 -

Yup! And twice I have had my hair fall out because I got highlights-- and my hair was virgin hair... not damaged at all.
The first time was in middle school and it was my front bangs that grew back like a mowhawk!
Then transitioned into awkwardly short bangs.
So brutal! 1 -

Honestly... I think the whole protein buzz was created by big dairy and animal agriculture to sell more products 🤷🏽♂️...
I try to not sweat it so much... I have a shake every morning for breakfast and yogurt after dinner and with lunch but I've never been a meticulous macro counter...
That's just more effort than I'm willing to put in to this... ✌🏼5 -

I opt for more protein because it keeps me full. If I hit the carbs too hard you best believe I'm eating the whole damn kitchen 😐3 -

I think it depends on the individual...ive neen playing with macros for ever...my proteins low with low calorie...my hair falls out and weight loss stalls. Protein higher with lower carbs...i keep my hair 😊and lose weight. Right now I'm trying to hit a magical number 1. To challenge myself and 2. See what happens...for research2 -
can't stand usage of the phrase "furbaby"
Oh my gosh yes, I have a dog and would never call her my furbaby. Maybe “little pupperino of love” or “fuzzy wuzzy little doggy-poo” but never furbaby. Ironically she’s not that little.
I might get a disagree for this, but the term “littles” also irritates me. I don’t know why, but it’s irritating. “Me and the littles went to the park”, just say “my kids”. (Braced for the disagrees).
I can't stand "littles" either but it bugs me a bit less than "kiddos" which drives me up a WALL.
To me, "kiddos" is extra horrible (and very condescending) when used by teachers or parents of "kiddos" who are technically young adults/adults with some form of disability.1
