    I had also stopped taking my cat to the vet for general every 6mth checkups because they had told me she was fat and I felt like a bad mother. My cat is on a calorie reduced diet as well AND has successfully lost 2lbs safely over the last year. *she is healthy and well* *and gets her vaccinations and check ups regularly* no one freak. NO animal abuse here lol.




    I am dreading this come Friday. I rescued a kitten last July. My neighbour found her, and she was left out in the woods/fishing area with no other cats or anything. I was supposed to keep her overnight and ended up keeping her. First cat I have had in almost two decades. She was only five weeks old and weighed barely one pound. Last time she saw the vet was two months ago and she was eight pounds and the vet had me change her to adult kibble and told me she was at her max weight. She goes for a check up Friday, and I KNOW she has gained weight. Her neck is thick and when she lays on her back, she is all belly.....the thing is I feed her EXACTLY what the vet instructed. She gets one can of Science Diet wet food over two servings and exactly 1/4 cup of Science Diet Oral care dry food once a day.....the problem is, she eats everything she can get her paws on in the house. It is honestly like she never got over being hungry (when we found her, she was STARVING)....she eats paper, hay and rodent kibble from my degu cage, cotton of q-tips (I can no longer have a garbage in my bedroom or the bathroom because she tears it apart eating garbage constantly), one day she ate the entire outside leave of a cabbage that was on the table. Even two weeks ago she ate an onion ring and I had to spend $56 calling animal poison control, she is insane. I hope the vet has some answers for me and not just tell me she is fat and to cut back her food.....cuz I honestly think that might make it worse.....

    I went on a cruise with my husband last month. I gained ten pounds, he didn't gain an ounce. I was so pissed I told him I had a UTI and couldn't have sex for ten days.

    I laughed so hard at this, the dogs came over with concerned looks on their faces.

    I've eaten premade frosting out of the jar before. I also eat cookie butter out of the jar. In fact, that's how 1.5 jars of cookie butter got consumed in this house... all but the 1/2 jar I used in a recipe.

    What is cookie butter? BTW - great profile photo!

    Imagine if peanut butter was made with ground up cookies instead. Now wipe the drool off your chin :D

    where do you get that?!?!?!?!?!?!

    I saw it at World Market and someone told me they have it at Publix and I am not going to even try that until I'm closer to goal because oh my goodness I do not need to find more deliciousness.

    Sometimes, I eat in bed and don't even remember. I wake up in the morning wondering why I'm not hungry, and then, I'm sad when I remember.

    I totally do that too. I good all day then like sleep eat or something. So frustrating.

    Wet have the same cat! 5 week old foundling, now eats anything. She'll knock off a loaf of bread if i leave it out... my other cat eats plastic bags then does plastic poops.
  • I tend to not record the days when I eat bad on MFP but looking at the scale makes me sad when I don't see what I like. :/

  • I want to lose weight because the girls on my team are all so skinny and judge me because I'm not. I feel disgused about my body because I'm heavier and am getting depressed.

    Are you in the US? Even Wal-Mart now has Biscoff spread in the peanut butter section:

    It seems like some Protestants do observe Lent. I know that Lutherans do, because I take a Zumba class at a Lutheran church and we have to change our schedule due to Lent-related activities for six weeks. I'm pretty sure that Anglicans do too.

    My confession: I am not religious at all, bordering on slightly anti-religious. Still, it bothers me that people are not being allowed to discuss Lent on this site. As long as they are not assuming that everyone has the same practices, it seems like a valid diet-and-fitness-related discussion.

    You're right. Lutheran and Anglican churches, while Protestant, are not as far removed from Catholicism as other denominations such as Pentecostal, Baptist, Methodist, etc. and still maintain a lot of the same traditions.

    I didn't realize Lent was taboo on here. There's been other threads that discussed religious fasts unrelated to Lent so I don't see what the big deal is.

    My next confession: I talked about religion (sort of?) on MFP.

    Yep--two Lent-related threads were closed yesterday. One of them was not even heated or contentious at all.

    I'm also a bit weirded out by the "don't use any languages other than English" rule. It seems strange to me that a respectful discussion in another language is taboo.

    Other than that, I confess that I like it here.

    You can't post in other languages?? What is going on here? I was not aware of either of these things......

    After I posted this, I came across a third thread that was closed for the mere mention of Lent.

    Yep, any thread in a foreign language will get closed. There was one yesterday entitled "Bonjour."

    My real life happens in two different languages fairly equally. I speak 12 languages. I can read a simple conversation in several more. Nobody is ever saying anything bad in any of the foreign-language threads.

    I anthropomorphise the desire to eat as a an angry little monster that lives inside me. When losing weight I mentally tell him to shut up and starve.

    I have a similar rage monster, but I made him out of polymer clay. Now I might have to make a hunger monster.

    I peed during my workout yesterday and kept working out, hoping no one would notice...

    Hopefully anyone who noticed just thought it was sweat.



    This happened to me while I was running my first 10k. Again, no bathrooms on course. Ugh, why does running make the grossest things happen?

    Better question: why are there no restrooms on the route?!?!

    This happened to one of the girls in Boot Camp when we had our final timed 2 mile run. We were both close to the maximum time allowed. It was a stressful time and I think I am the only one that saw. I felt bad for her, but we all did things in Boot Camp we couldn't help!

    Ah, distance running. The only hobby where nipple bleeding and soiling yourself are part of the fun!

    Nipple bleeding?? What kind of distance running is that???

    I've always been told that marathon runners can have thier nipples chafe until they bled. That's why there is some sort of glide gel they wear.

    Well, for chicks it doesn't even take marathons if you're wearing the wrong bra.

    Oh so true. No stronger sign that you need to buy a new one.

    I always share my "bad" foods so I don't each as much of them. (Its really not to bad except that my hubby cant figure out why he isnt losing weight lol!) Also, I have been known to creep the break room for goodies and if there is something like cake I will take a piece and only eat two or three bites or just the icing and toss the rest. It lets me be "bad" without killing my calories for the day! I have hadbinge recently. Like I seriously couldn't stop eating. I ate cookies, then a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich, then a yogurt, then a peice of chocolate pie, then an icecream sandwich. I mean seriously I was nauseated when I finally managed to stop. I have no idea what came over me I just did it....

    OP you are so right, I feel so much better now! LOL! Thanks for this post.

    I did the same thing today! Ten weeks of being "righteous" and then, boom, I could NOT stop eating today. Is there a full moon or something??

    We are not allowed to discuss Lent?

    Can we still discuss lentils?

    I dunno, those lentil threads can get pretty ornery some days, too.

    I have in the past eaten just two tubs of shop brought mash potatoes for dinner, mash is my favourite thing apart from chocolate.
    I also used to regulary share a ben and jerry's tub of ice cream with my partner, this was almost a weekly ocurance.
    I haven't either of these for a month because I really couldn't bare with how bad my body was getting.
    I will be have a small amount of mash every now and then though.

    I resent thin people. I've been fat my whole life, and have no idea what it's like to be thin. I know I shouldn't resent them, but damn, when I see a thin girl complaining about how those jeans make her *kitten* look big, I want to slap her in the face.

    I know the feeling, I really do.

    I watch the documentary "hungry for change" at least once every 2 weeks to try and keep myself motivated and remind me of the crap we call food. Some bad weeks Ill watch it twice.

    If I have a night out with the girls *drinks* I count half the wine for one day, and the other half for the next. Those days I have to not eat much to make up for the excess cals.
    I have stopped hanging out with the girls because our social events revolve around food and booze.

    I often eat at night. I wake up hungry all the time. AND It sucks. Worst is I often get into the peanut butter (all natural kraft) AND I EAT IT BY THE SPOONFUL!

    Sometimes when I'm seriously craving sugar, and have nothing, I will take Smuckers Strawberry Jam by the spoonful. Shameful I know.

    I have had digestive issues for years AND was labelled IBS until I discovered gluten-free and yeast free diet. Since I feel fantastic, BUT I AM TIRED Of people saying "it's just a fad". Its not. Its a new life for me! I secretly wish they could spend a mnth gluten intolerant, and be forced fed gluten and yeast and know what its like to feel like a 9mnth pregnant woman, with serious abd pains, that u feel like u want to burst AND know what its like to *kitten* fire on a regular basis. I think then the judgment would stop.

    I also cant stand it when skinny people complain their butt looks big or asks if a certain piece of clothing makes them look fat. I think these people are just looking for reassurance and compliments. SOMETIMES I feel like saying "yes it makes u look fat and huge and u better get a butt tuck or something" lol. BUT I'm not really that mean. Just annoyed.

    I hate it when my doctor tells me I need to lose weight, Like I am somehow lazy or no willpower. I have avoided seeing my family doctor simply because I didn't want to hear his broken record report again saying my BMI is still too high. Thing is I have radically changed my diet and lifestyle and kick *kitten* in the gym. I hate how "numbers define us". What digs me the most is I'm sure I can jog faster and longer than he probably can.

    I had also stopped taking my cat to the vet for general every 6mth checkups because they had told me she was fat and I felt like a bad mother. My cat is on a calorie reduced diet as well AND has successfully lost 2lbs safely over the last year. *she is healthy and well* *and gets her vaccinations and check ups regularly* no one freak. NO animal abuse here lol.

    I secretly always believed I was single because I was fat.
    That turns out to be not the case at all. I was single because I didn't let people in, or I let the wrong men in.

    I sometimes fantasize about eating junk food. all the bad stuff. while I chew on celery sticks or eat spinache salad.

    Even though I am curvaceous and have a high BMI I love my body.

    This feels good to let it all out!


    off to check out "hungry for change" now.

    I totally feel like saying "screw it" and eating everything in sight. I don't even care what the repercussions would be. I want chocolate and Chinese food and alcohol and chips and cheesecake and...

    If those things were around, I would totally be binging. As it is, I am mentally tallying everything I have available and thinking about eating it all!

    Total bad attitude today. :(

    I collect all of my weight in my midsection and have really oddly shaped hips and love handles and no curve at the top of my butt. So even when I've been thin, all of my bottom clothes (including every type/size of underwear I buy) roll down to try to expose my butt crack, and all of my shirts that have any fit to them roll up my love handles to expose my stomach. I feel like all my clothes are conspiring to shame me. My mom yelled at me once for my pants sitting so low, so I yanked them up below my boobs, the only place they stay out for any length of time, and she finally conceded that occasionally exposed butt crack was actually the better of the two looks for me o.O

    I intended (and pre-logged) my breakfast as an over easy egg and toast. I broke the yolk when I put it in the pan, so I made a second egg the way I wanted and ate them both. I'm not going to change my food diary because I didn't intend to cook it that way.

    Didn't mean it = doesn't count.

    Confession: I still don't understand what paczki's are, but I am intrigued by all the commentary on them. It sounds like something I should never definitely eat...

    It's like a jelly donut on steroids, fried in lard. If you do ever give in and get one, go to a real Polish bakery, don't settle for the grocery store knock offs.

    Straight talk right here^^^^^
    If it ain't a real one, it ain't worth the calories! The real ones though...oh yeah baby :smiley:

    *adds to wishlist* Sadly I don't know of any authentic Polish bakeries around these parts...

    When I feel like a total loser for overeating, I look in this thread to feel better. Not that I'm calling anyone here a loser but I just don't feel as guilty when I read some of these confessions. That might not be such a good thing. I should probably stay away from here.
