I bought some new clothes for this fall from avenue.com...the jeans are size 30 and they'r tight! :sad: and the top is a 30/32 and it's kinda smal around the boob and stuff I was wearing 24s back in July...but then I started retaining so much water...and my stomach is like 7 inches bigger than it was and I haven't even been over eating...keeing my calories 500+ under my BMR! I just want to give up. :frown: The scale won't go down!

Heres some pics of my new outfit. (sorry about the cleavage. :blushing: )

I wish I knew the exact words to make you feel better. All I know is that you must keep trying. I've read your profile and it really sucks to gain weight quickly and feel like you have no control over it.

Do you possibly have a good friend that would walk with you everyday? Do you have the option of joining a walking group? I think it would do wonders for your mental health to have someone to help you through this journey.

We are here to listen. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

Ok so some women would kill for that cleavage!! :bigsmile: Like me :sad:

If you watch your food intake, and get exercise, the weight will come off.

It is scientific. Nothing hokey about it. Less in, more out.

It takes your body awhile to get used to the routine.

You can do this!!

I only have one friend and she lives two hours away.

I've been cleaning a lot lately...it's good exercise for me. Makes me sweat and all...and it feels productive gettting things all clean and organized.

LOL you can have it. If I ever get to my ideal weight, I'm gonna see about a breast reduction. (they sag to my frickin belly button. :grumble: )

Your pictures are not as bad as you think! We all think we look worse or horrible in our own minds. Stop being so hard on yourself.

Now you have a small goal! Lose a few pounds and the next thing you will know is that you fit into those clothes you just bought. Don't get frustraited or mad, get even and get your butt moving and get into those great clothes you just bought!

And I agree a lot of women would pay a lot of money to have the boobage you have! lol

Said it before and will continue to say it:

You have to learn to love the YOU THAT YOU ARE NOW! The "inside" you.

If you can't look in the mirror and learn to love the person you see, then you will never be happy regardless of your weight.

I've always liked Dawn French's attitude-even though she doesn't necessarily believe in losing weight. But that is because she said that women need to realize that WE ARE BEAUTIFUL NO MATTER WHAT SIZE WE ARE! And stop letting others determine our self-worth.

If you don't know who Dawn French is--she is a very famous TV star in Britain and the hero of my favorite show "THE VICAR OF DIBLEY"--not on anymore though but I watch re-runs.

Here's her pic:

Are you eating at least 1200 calories? I am sure that you are, but the way it is stated above, it sounds like you're eating 700, which would explain a lot! Just making sure! Keep it up and don't let your frustration sabotage your efforts!! :flowerforyou:

I'm eating around 1500 calories...but I'm 295 lbs so my BMR is over 2000.

This may not be very much comfort to you, but trust me, as someone who used to work in the plus-size clothing retail world... Clothes are being made smaller these days. I know that doesn't account for your entire problem but please don't focus too much on the size of the clothes that you're buying. As long as you are making healthy choices you will start to see a huge difference. Keep up the great work! It will happen for you! I promise!
