Confession Time! ((ABSOLUTELY NO JUDGEMENT))
Replies

I've eaten really badly for the past two days (two whole pizza Hut large pizzas and a side of cheese wedges) and today has already gotten off to a bad start. Not even 7am and double helping of porridge with the most obscene amount of golden syrup and a muller light chocolate yoghurt
Trying to talk myself out of a caramel coffee. Why do I sabotage myself like this? I'm losing weight, and I'm seeing the effects of my gym regime and now I'm eating like pacman. No prospect of exercise until later this afternoon. So annoyed with myself 0 -
I confess, I don't honestly think I can succeed at losing weight. I also confess that I make and eat frosting for a snack. Penuche, brown sugar penuche. I also make hot chocolate syrup for icecream and eat it without the icecream. If you tasted it, you would hate me. It's so good.0

I confess, this thread has made me irrationally angry....or maybe I should eat something.

About to read that one.
I confess I'm pretty down, not only I still haven't reached my goal weight even though I should have a month ago, it looks like I'm actually up a pound... I know it's that PMS week that just screws up all my progress every single month and it just makes me want to cry... but the math doesn't add up, and I'm just very frustrated and can't really imagine eating less than I have been.
And all I want for Mother's Day is my husband to steam clean the floors.0 -

It's so unfortunate....
Haha. Yes I told him. And will tell him repeatedly until he does it, even though he has other plans. I cannot stand the dirty floors anymore.

Double confession:
If I participated in as much sport as I watched, I wouldn't have a weight problem. Man, I did all eighty minutes with my football team yesterday, I swear!!!!!!
Also, I...think I am succumbing to my poor genetics. My hips and my knees both ache at times, and more regularly recently. I know this is very, very likely osteoarthritis. But I'm not ready to hear those words from a doctor, because I know they'll almost certainly be followed by "No more skating". And I'm definitely not ready to give that up yet. For now, the pain is not intense, and not often enough to cause any real problems.0 -
I confess that I'm feeling really down and depressed today, and I've pretty much decided that I'm not going to eat anything, even though my diary is already fully pre-logged for the day. (I'm one of those people who just don't want to eat when feeling very depressed)0

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there on MFP!!! The world would not go round without you!

Please feel better. Go for a nice long walk that always makes me feel better.0 -

Hadn't heard that!! Definitely taking advantage of that one!0 -
Okay confession time...
1) I worked out that my scales weigh me at least 3lbs less than I actually weigh if I move them to the other side of the bathroom (I have NO idea why I feel better when I do this as its only me who sees and logs my weight)
2) I picked my 3 year old son up from playgroup the other day and they had made cookies, I scoffed the cookie and then when my son asked for it I convinced him HE had eaten it!! #Bad mummy.
3) Red wine is my fave tipple and love a glass or two at the weekend and usually keep within my calories so that I can indulge but my husband was on night shift and I drank the whole bottle so I told him I'd dropped the rest of the bottle and it had smashed on the kitchen floor just so he would go get me another bottle for the Saturday night...Oops (PS i am not an alcoholic...I think lol)
4) I cut all the labels out of my clothes so no one can see what size I wear and I can convince myself that I'm not as overweight as I am
Feels good to get that off my chest hahaha.0 -
I'm currently living with someone I don't want to spend the rest of my life with and he wants to. He's arrogant and cruel to others. A small part of my motivation to get back in shape is to possibly begin a life with a man I've grown to really care for. A friend who is caring and more like me.
Why are you still with him? Dump him and find someone else. If he is like that with others he is likely like that with you too. Or will be. Life is too short to be with someone who makes you unhappy. You may not think you can but you can and will in the end be better for it.0 -

I'm surprised if most of these people ever return to post something or continue with MFP, or logging food after the very "harsh" approach. Then there are the people that just complain that the OP's don't want to hear the truth when in fact it's the negative way people are responding making the OP obviously feel criticized and unsupported. So ya, that's my irritation confession. Makes me never want to ask any questions here.
Here's where this irritates me - there are trolls on this forum. Everyone knows there are trolls on this forum. The trolls flat out admit they are trolls. And even still, people will defend them, and pretend they actually mean well, or act like they've never seen the trolling, as if they've read everything the acct has posted, except for the times they're intentionally trying to start an argument. I'd rather people admit, "yeah, they're a troll, but they make me laugh, so I don't care," rather than act like they have some secret psychic knowledge into the motivations of people who are just "misunderstood."
The funniest troll I can remember is this account who said they weighed 600 pounds & ate like six sticks of butter, two large pizzas, 30-40 slices of cake, & a ton of other stuff that no one in their right mind would be able to eat & the number of people who were taking them seriously was astounding. I took them seriously until I read their food diary & knew it was someone who just put a bunch of random food entries in with multiple servings.
So I have read about trolls but never really understood what people were talking about. It's people that fake their their situation to see if people take the bait? Why? To spark fights? I don't get it.0 -

Oh gosh I just saw that.
So I went there briefly and left.
Confession I hate when people call other people a "special snowflake". It just sounds so rude and condescending. And I don't get it. Every snowflake is unique. They are all special. So isn't this kind of a contradiction?
I always love when a poster posts something that will cause a stir & then never shows up to give a follow up or more details.
My favorite was the thread the girl asked for substitutions for ice cream but wanted ones without fruit & most responded with Banana Ice Cream.
That is funny. I wish I had caught that one. And I never understand why they post if they aren't coming back either. Maybe they start reading the responses and chicken out.0 -
I don't get it either, but some of them are pretty obvious (although I still think iron deficiency girl was one, so who knows). The thing is that most of the discussions that go on tend to ignore the OP after a while and are interesting (or amusing) for reasons having nothing to do with the OP, IMO.0

I saw that this morning and against my better judgment read through the whole thing and understand your reaction.
I confess the thread about how 120 lb women (or whatever) could and should too be losing 2 lbs per week if they weren't weak and lacking the mental discipline to eat at a 1000 calorie deficit while exercising hard is irritating the heck out of me.
I could be taking this personally as it hits my buttons some. ;-)
And that's an example of where the thread has little to do with the actual question the OP asked.0 -

i gave up on that one. Sure, it's just my discipline that's lacking because i have trouble running 10K a day on less than 1000 calories for weeks on end. Lol. Peaced out of that thread right quick.0 -

I did this for a while when I first started gaining some weight back. Then I eventually updated with my new weight.
Every week I would think "I'll do better this week, and maybe by next week I will be able to record a lower weight."

I want bonus points for predicting exactly who would be posting in there and what they'd be arguing about before I even opened it.0 -

Out of curiosity I have checked on the OP (officially launching into MFP acronyms) of this thread. She is still here and posting. Oddly after the first few pages of this she never came back. She started the best thread ever and just left. Still don't get that one. I would be like a mother hen and so obnoxiously proud of myself I would probably kill it by constantly putting out I birthed this people would hate me.

A workout confession from me:
I refuse to go to a public gym because I am severely embarrassed by the massive amounts of fat I carry on my upper arms, and the way it flaps and makes disgusting sounds when I am working out makes me queasy. I don't want to imagine how it would make others feel.0 -
I know that feeling, and wish I knew why progress can be a setback. Maybe weigh yourself less often so the small successes aren't obvious ? And why is it seem so easy to undo hard workorangesmartie wrote: »I've eaten really badly for the past two days (two whole pizza Hut large pizzas and a side of cheese wedges) and today has already gotten off to a bad start.
