    hey, fatcity.....i get it! got work out or something!

    Attacking/insulting someone is also not allowed here. I highly suggest you read the Community Guidelines.

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/welcome/guidelines



    i'm the one being attacked!! for making a mistake, i'm the one being harassed! i highly suggest you back off!

    You're not actually being attacked. Someone pointed out to you that your post violates the rules. Most people would reply with "Ooops, I didn't realize that. I'm sorry." But you fought back. And you continue to fight back. Nobody has attacked you at all, just reminded you of the rules. Maybe it's time to listen.

    honey, most everybody in this thread is attacking me. read through it. i'm very aware that i have broke a precious rule. i've apologized. yet, the crude comments keep coming.

    Try optifast 800. You will have to drink four shakes a day and that's it. It does work. You will more than likely lose around 4lbs a week.

    You are kidding me, right? Did you not read the thread? Did you somehow miss where numerous people said you cannot promote the use of weight loss products?

    I think it's more concerning they are promoting a vlcd.

    i'm sorry but it's not spam! it's real with real results! just here trying to help!

    Says the spammer who has been here since Dec 2011 and whose ticker reads 0lbs lost 60lbs to go.

    Wow! I want real results like that! NOT!!

    you know what lady, maybe just maybe i didn't log my weight loss on mfp. ever think of that??

    Hmm. Doesn't use MFP, post history is either advertisements or in defense of advertisements, profile picture is also an advertisement....
    But totally NOT trying to sell anything.


    Yeah. Okay.

    this better. is this profile pic make you happy! my son is autistic. oh wait...is that advertising autism in some way?

    Trying to compare Autism and weight loss gimmicks….. No, just no.

    OMG, i just can't win with you people! And don't you dare start going off on me about autism. Look, I"m sorry I pissed you people off. Seriously. Get over it. I'm sorry. Let it go. I am truly sorry that I broke a rule. It will never happen again! Done. Period!

    Going off on you about Autism? YOU were the one who made a smart *kitten* comment basically trying to say promoting Autism awareness is no different than promoting weight loss products.

    I was gave 1 month and 1 week notice of my sisters wedding which I am the Maid of honor in. I weighed in today and am at -20 pounds. I did it in 1 month by eating like 500-.800 calories every day which 90% consisted of fruits and vegetables. This may not be the healthiest way but it worked for me.

    NO!!! Please NO!!!!!!

    Why do you have to be 150 at this particular event? Is there going to be a weigh-in?

    a weigh-in ha ha

    I should do this when my daughter gets married and make my family members pay a dollar for every pound over a healthy BMI toward the expenses. LOL!!

    NO.

    No promotion of unsafe weight loss methods. ^THIS is NOT healthy. It's not healthy AT ALL.

    THIS is just outright scary and dangerous and no family event is worth it. OP, please do not do this.

    Instead of focusing on a number on the scale, try focusing on inches lost. You'll lose inches a lot faster than you will pounds. I have not tried insanity myself but know people who have had great success with it. I myself am a jillian michaels or chalean extreme kind of girl :)

    i was in no way comparing autism and weight loss. there is no comparison. i made the comment because you insinuated that's what i was doing!! which i was not!!! anyway, i'm done.

    Why do you have to be 150 at this particular event? Is there going to be a weigh-in? Of course not. Nobody but you will know your exact weight. Eat well, exercise wisely, and go to the wedding in a fantastic outfit that flatters your body at whatever weight you happen to be when the date comes.

    This is the best advice in this thread. Do exactly that. PERFECT ADVICE! It seems as if this event is pretty important to you. Are you in the wedding? Even if you are not there is no rule that says you can't go and get your hair styled for the event and have your makeup done as well. If you are shopping for a new dress have the salesgirls help you choose items to try on. Good luck and please lose your weight safely.

    I think I know why you don't log your weight loss here because you only use this site as an adverting venue.

    1). You were the one to bring up Autism
    2). Nobody is "going off" at you about Autism.
    3). My lovely son is also on the Autism Spectrum.
    4). You broke the rules and you are repeatedly lashing out at most people in this thread and I suggest (this is a sincere suggestion) that you walk away from your computer and go take a walk or spend some time with your son. Get away from this thread for a while. It's not going to end well at this point.

    Have a nice day.

    OP, I hope that your take-away from this thread is that losing how much you want, in the timeframe you want would only happen with dangerous, ridiclous VLCDs or expensive, snake oil products (also VLCD) and I hope you're smart enough to reject both of these options and take on board the majority view of doing what you can in a sustainable manner and enjoying the wedding without focussing on a number.

    So I have a wedding I am going to exactly 2 months from now...I currently weigh 175 and I am trying to be 150 or lower by the time of the wedding...any tips or diets or exercises you all have would be greatly appreciated!!!

    also...I have heard of this program called insanity...its a 60 day program and I have 61 days until the wedding. has anyon done it and if so how much weight did you lose from it?

    1). This doesn't sound like an emergency.
    2). I don't think your goal weight is a good idea. (Edit: due to timeframe)

    I think you should take this time to learn some sustainable practices that you can apply to your life so that months and years from now, you're able to maintain a reasonable weight and avoid further "emergencies".

    it's against the rules on EVERY board i've ever been on - reading, fitness, guitar, business, photography, and the list goes on. i've never seen a board that allows spam.
    My goodness! All I was trying to do was help and I'm being attacked! "It's against the rules", "Ignore the spammer", "Advertising will be deleted".
    Good luck to you all.

    I think the reason this thread is attracting a lot of not-so-great advice is because there isn't really a healthy way (at least that I can think of) to achieve a 25 lb weight loss in 2 months. I feel badly for the OP, because this whole thread is a hot mess.

    OP, I lost about 10 pounds in 2 months time working out and eating better. And this was before MFP! While it's not a jaw dropping number, it was enough to help me feel better about myself and squeeze into one dress size smaller. I don't want you to throw the baby out with the bathwater, here. I think you can still work to feeling good by the wedding, and I hope you will. I think many of the posters here are not only trying to uphold the rules of the forums, but to discourage you from doing something that could be harmful to your health (and pocketbook!) in the name of weight loss.

    Bottom line - I hope you can rethink your goal here and instead of focus on eating better, working out more, and garnering encouragement here from the community on your weight loss journey - for as long as it takes. (And I'm happy to lend some encouragement - feel free to send me a friend request if you wish.)

    Best luck!

    1:yes, i did bring up autism....i'll bring it up every day!!
    2:no, nobody went off on my about autism. i asked her not to.
    3:i'm in good company then!! my prayers are with you and your son!
    4:yes, i broke the rules, i lashed out because i was being lashed against! i'd loooove to go be with my son and my daughter but they are spending a few days with my inlaws! thank you for the suggestions! i agree, everybody hates me in this thread. i'm a spammer. i've been called uppity. i'm sure most believe i have no soul, but truth be told i am a sweet person who really cares about everybody. i have a very, VERY defensive personality. i hate that about myself. i apologize for that. if i knew how to delete my original post, i would. i don't know how though. again, i apologize to everyone. please, quit being hateful. it hurts. i'm sorry i broke the rules. it's not going to happen again, okay? thanks.

    This is not an emergency. You will enjoynthe procees more with a modest defecit and doing exercise that you enjoy. When you make it difficult chances are you want it to be done in as little time as possible. That's why we get numerous threads with this sameIidea for speedy weight loss. you want it to be over quickly because you make it so miserable to get there.

    I already dealt with the biggest see you next Tuesday at work today, so i am not getting involved with this ridiculous drama.

    I've lost 28lbs in the last two months (less than 60 days, actually). I eat no more than 50 grams of carbs/ day and consume ~1500-1600 calories / day. My macros are 70% fat, 20% protein, 10% carbs. I am expecting backlash, but wanted to let OP know that such a goal is possible, without paying for gimmicks or going on a VLCD.

    To help you lose weight, you could try buying an ebook that gives weight loss tips. Maybe some of those tips can help/ here is one i recommend:

    This has to be a record for most advertisements/spam and unsafe weight loss methods to pop up in a short period.
