  • I'm a woman, 5 ft 3, I currently weigh 216 and my BMR is 1732 (Scooby's calculator). I have about 90 lb to lose. I try to eat at least my BMR calories every day as a minimum, otherwise I feel deprived, and I do enough exercise to give me a deficit of 200-500 cals daily. That seems to be working very well for me at the…

  • I'm learning to make my own clothes (it helps keep my mind off food!) Earlier this year I made myself a silver duct tape dummy, which is a scary exact replica of my body, to use for draping. In the past 3 months the scales have only shown a 5lb drop, but I've lost 5cm from my bust, 8cm from waist, and 6cm from my hips, and…

They helped me to find, and stick to, other non-destructive coping mechanisms. I couldn't afford to see a therapist, so…

  • I totally relate to what you are saying. That's why I say 'Try not to worry'...I wasted many years of my life being in exactly the same state as you are in now. I truly wish I hadn't been so hard on myself. But it's easy to say that in hind sight. When you're experiencing it, it doesn't feel so easy! Say to yourself that…

  • I know this isn't a gym workout type of exercise, but I've found that swimming (freestyle) with my feet held together (not tied! just by squeezing a little) is working wonders for me. I'm very over weight and have knee problems because of this. I can't do kick back types of moves at all because it hurts too much right now,…
