I think it is because I just WISH that the hunt fr the perfect jeans on a perfect body was my biggest issue. Maybe it is jealousy? But either way.... I feel the same!
This is just damn sad. SMH :noway:
I don't see it... It does annoy me when I see girls that look fantastic complain that their clothes make them look fat. Although I guess now I just feel sad for them because they don't realize how great they look, and they'll look back one day and realize that they were wasting too much energy on something that wasn't even true and wish they could look that way again lol.
I totally fail to see how that is body shaming, like some people mentioned above... Being jealous of someone's body is shaming them? How?
For not washing clothes after working out, some people just don't sweat much. I'm always sweating like crazy at the gym but I see people running in SWEATERS next to me and they seem just fine. So *shrug*.
Of course you don't. *nod* *shrug*-15 -

You know, the thread title asked for no judgement, and that's pretty much all you've contributed.

Yup.
And I guess I'm a horrible person because I completely fail to see how we're shaming someone when we're jealous of them.

My confessions:
1) When it comes to discipline, I am aces at getting my butt to the gym pretty much every day of the weak. But when it comes to food, I fall woefully short. I feel as though I fell off a cliff starting with the holidays. Pizza and brownie batter have become my Saturday evening staples.
2) I really only partake in cocktails once per week, but when I do I tend to hit it a bit hard. I often wonder if that makes me a functional alcoholic.
3) I am not sure I will ever be truly happy with my body/how I look no matter what. I can always find room for a lot of improvement. I am not sure if that is a good, motivational thing or a self-deprecating thing.

When people ask me or my brother what our favorite dessert is and we say "brownie batter", they always look at us quizzically and say "...brownies, you mean?" No. Delicious, raw-eggy brownie batter.
While I sympathize with the weekly trap you've found yourself in, I'm glad to have found another Batter Enthusiast.
(Are you making it from scratch, or using box mix? I can't keep any sort of quick desert options in the house. If I want something sweet, I have to make it, so it happens less often. Not that brownie batter is hard to whip up....)0 -

Since renewing my weight loss journey I've started smoking again and drinking a lot more helps me stay in my calorie target and stops me feeling deprived. Also my calorie goal is too low and I know it.0

I ate 4.5 cookies in Friday, even though I meant to only have 1 or 2, but they were delicious.0

I did some cardio for a bit of padding for super bowl snacks, but I ate like 4 pieces of pizza and a whiskey last night. Padding demolished.0

1) do you mean you don't change out of those workout clothes for days or are you "airing" things out like some of these other ladies?
2) For the ladies airing stuff out would it be just as easy to take those clothes in the bathroom+when you shower and leave them in a sink full of water and Woolite while you shower and the drain the sink while you dress and then hang them to dry for the same lenght of time they would have "aired out"?...without really costing you any more time if thats the issue?
3) Is it the scented trash bag, and what do you do with the yellow drawstring tie it at your waist like sweats?
4) What is the difference between, judgement, curiosity, "nosy" -ness, and concern?
I put my workout clothes on hooks in my bedroom to air them out. Hand washing & wringing seems like wayyyyy too much work lol1 -

Ya. I handwash mine eventually. I don't have a washer and dryer and my apartment is never warmer than 65 so the clothes don't dry in time to take to work in the morning. My stuff gets worn a few times. I don't really do cardio though so minimal sweat. You have to be careful of tinea when you rewear clothes but...yeah. I'm not going to get too into detail ha.0 -

Or mix the powder into peanut butter!1 -
confession, I judge people big time for spelling "lose" as "loose."17

I first lost weight (age 16) using nothing but determination with cardio for an hour, every other day, completely oblivious to the health issues associated with what I was doing. My protein intake would have been *kitten*, and it showed; I ended up skinny-fat to a large extent.
I maintained weight since then until the age of 21 by coming to terms with being perpetually hungry, making a habit of it, and also long-distance running a lot. (I suffered from shin-splints repeatedly)
At 21 I discovered nutrition science and it turns out a ketogenic diet was just the thing for me, and all that stupid deprivation finally ended.
Lose weight smart, people; look after yourselves and don't lose lean mass!0 -

I'm with you. We can be stinky together. But I only have one shirt and bra that can keep my ladies from bouncing everywhere.0 -
Confessions..
-Sometimes I spend more time dancing and posing in the mirror than actually working out (my gym is at home)
-I don't log all my food, especially alcohol
-I am a perfectionist and I know I will never be 100% satisfied with my body which makes me sad1 -

Thanks. Saying I'm unhappy is a confession because I don't feel like I have a reason to be? Things aren't that difficult, I just just feel like something's missing. I don't understand where people find joy. I decided to buy a house, and put an offer in today for a great one. I'm not excited at all about it, and I don't know why. Oh well, off to bed, gotta work another 12 hours tomorrow.
This sounds a lot like clinical depression to me. Have you spoken to a doctor?0 -

Good for you!!! That jealousy is gonna take you far.-19 -
I round my weight down. Even if it says 122.6lbs I say 122. Eek.0

The stupidest thing I ever did was buy some of those pills you see advertised that are supposed to aid weigh loss. You get them for free but pay for packaging only the trial is free and they charge you £75 if you decide not to send them back. I didn't read the fine print (because I was 16 and dumb and hated my body so much I just wanted it gone!). When I found out they had taken the money and realised why I was too embarrassed to admit to my parents. I didn't have to tell them about it as I earned my own money and I wasted my own money on it too! Stupidest thing I have ever done and it makes me feel bad that I got so desperate to lose weight that I fell for some pills that didn't work anyway.0

I'm guilty of this, too. I tend to avoid the scale for a day or 2 after for fear that I have sabotaged myself. Also, I feel really guilty. My New Years resolution was to with stain from alcohol for 1 month. I failed.0 -
I bought pillsbury red velvet cookie dough in those pre-portioned cookie sizes with the intention of baking them for my daughters and husband, maybe eating 1 myself. Over the course of several days, I ate half the package. Without baking them first.
As for the wearing work out clothes multiple times debate...if you don't stink while you're working out next to me, then I don't care! I wipe down machines before and after use anyway. I sweat like a crazy person so I can't wear mine multiple times.0 -

Haha I do this! Instead of crisps or something, I'll demolish an entire bag of baby carrots. In one sitting.0 -
I'm unhappy. I determined that if I'm busy, I don't notice. I started working 75+ hours a week so I'm always busy and don't have time to think about anything. I don't know where the last 6 years went. They are a blur, and I'm still unhappy.
Awe, you sound so sad. Is there anything we can do?0 -

Who hasn't tried at least one BS diet pill?
