    How in the world do any of you consider this helpful or mature in any way?
    It's NOT and it's so immature and least of all helpful in any way shape or form.

    OP...take the positive from the thread and let it go... rude ppl are not worth spending anymore time with... you won't find the help you're looking for from insensitive ppl.

    Oh good lord there are two of you...I was fairly nice in the beginning btw. After I received a snotty PM from the OP I decided to post my equally snotty response back - because I felt like it.

    She posted in a PUBLIC FORUM and she ASKED for help. We tried to help but she argued with anyone that dared to try to point anything out to her.

    Continue on your "journey" not accomplishing your goals while moaning about the "mean people" who really just started out trying to help.

    This is a first. I am currently the most mature person in here.

    no wait a darm minute, no one EVER told me that this was supposed to be a mature site... i would have never came...

    unless it becomes THAT kind of mature site. In that case, I might spend a lot more time on here. :laugh::drinker:

    Not inspired after 3 days?
    You are a woman. Your weight will fluctuate like crazy. You should already know this. I can weigh first thing in the morning and an hour later I'm a pound or two heavier. It happens. Pick one day for weighing. Weigh at same time the next week. Take measurements. Compare them weekly. Notice little differences in the way your clothes fit. Pay attention to how you feel when you go up a flight of stairs. Are you as winded as you may have been a month ago? Is that 20 pound bag of rice/dog food/fertilizer easier to pick up and carry? The scale is NOT the only measurement. Stick with it and don't give up.

    Well said

    K , again, if you're going to comment and just say "agree" to people who said I am an idiot then please don't bother commenting. I was overseas for a year and not exercising regularly or dieting. I only gained about 20 pounds probably the year I was overseas, but I went off birth control 3 months ago and it caused me to gain 20 more pounds in a short period of time. Yikeeees, posting on here has shown me that most people would rather make me feel dumb or defeated than be encouraging. Thanks to the people that are explaining how they feel in a nice manner.

    So you lost 50 lbs, then gained 40 lbs... and this episode has convinced you that the way to do it this time is to do pretty much the same thing you did in the beginning.

    Hm.


    Again, not constructive. Go back to taking pictures with your cat. and because I gained back my weight doesn't mean that what I did the first time was wrong, it just means I didn't stick with it, and I admit that, and also went off a medication I had been on for 10 years. In no way did I my original post mean to say that all I plan to eat for the rest of my life is spinach and chicken. haha.

    Just for you:

    Your cat really is adorable. There's no denying it. Where's the "awwwwww" smiley when you need one?

    Don't expect to go down dramatically in just a few days. Took me a very long time to pack on all of my weight. Lost half a hundred pounds but it's taken me all year to do it. Some days I go up, others I go down, but the long time trend is in the right direction.

    I went on the cauliflower diet once. Three long days of cauliflower juice, cauliflower toast, cauliflower bon bons... At the end of the third day I clicked my heels 3 times and *poof* I became Heidi Klum. You must be doing it wrong.

    My weight was a yo-yo my whole life by doing this kind of diet and extreme exercises routine..So, I went to a dietitian and she gave me some ideas in order to control my portions, that's it.. I eat something sweet every morning because I wouldn't keep going eating healthy the rest of the day. Find those things that you can't live without, or simply you don't want to live without them and commit to an easier way. You would be surprise how low in calories a meal that contains brown rice or whole grain pasta can be if you control the portion to a cup or half a cup. You will be surprise on how much that is too! Another tip that I just started doing this week, cook on Sunday the meals for the week, lunch and dinner, and you'll have more time to relax and workout without stressing too much. Good luck!

    What did you expect when you posted this? We would some how offer suggestions on how to eat chicken and vegetables in a different, more inspiring way?

    There's a cauliflower diet? Dear God, that must be concocted by the devil himself, the end result being a serial killer that's hangry all the time.

    Your gain was probably due to using muscles again and the water retention that resulted. And your weight can fluctuate like 7 pound in one day for various reasons.

    Quoted because it's true. Sooo true!

    whenever my teenage daughter complains that she gained 2-3 pounds, i tell her to go poop... usually puts the scale number back to place :)

    OP if I missed it then my bad, but do you weigh and/or measure out your food daily?? and I am joining the ranks of those on here telling you that all that is needed to lose weight is to eat in a modest caloric deficit. Making major changes in your diet and getting uninspired after only 3 days isn't going to get you anywhere, adherence is the key to success and that sustainability will need to be long term (rest of your life). Pay attention to those giving you advice (that you deem rude) alot of them have lost alot of weight (see tickers) and have been here for awhile. And you are on a public forum and will get silly responses and gif's, it is all in fun so I would suggest taking it that way.... but back to my original question?? How accurate are you track food???
