Hey guys, it's been a lonnnng time since I last posted anything or even logged in my food diary on mfp. I'm utterly disgusted at myself and how far I've let myself slide over the last year. I'm now the heaviest & biggest I've ever been & I'm so embarrassed and yes, ASHAMED. I am the first person to support body positivity…

Not just giving up and 'face planting' into a box of donuts is also a success. That just cracked me up! :D

I'm amazed you manage to work with all that going on with your health, I applaud you! I miss working SO much. I also stay around 800 calories a day, I'm following the BSD by Dr Michael Mosely...let's see how long it takes for this thread to get locked now we've said this!

Thanks CJ lol x

Hope you all had a good long-weekend (it was a long weekend here in the UK too)! My PoTS specialist phoned me last week and increased my dose of steroids again for the second time in 3 months. Despite still sticking to my calorie goal, I've GAINED 3lbs over the weekend! I know it's most likely water weight and I've…

I just joined this group via a link CJ posted on her disability chat thread, so hopefully you'll have a load of new members in no time!

I am a vegetarian, cook healthy meals from scratch, plenty of fresh veg & healthy protein sources such as pulses & tofu, yet still can't shift weight (partly because…

Totally understand your disappointment, but there's all sorts of things that can affect the numbers on the scale and although, it's a set back, it's a minor one that you can overcome! Rooting for you to keep going & I'm sure the scale will move in the right direction sooner rather than later :wink:

Ahh I'm hypermobile too! The pain is excrutiating. Well done on your weight loss, that's an amazing amount!

So glad there are some other disabled people on here! I get so sick of struggling with my weight due to physical limitations and my meds and nobody understands! I haven't been this heavy since I was heavily pregnant 17 years ago & it's making me miserable. I lost 20lbs about 2 years ago by using MFP, but I've been put on…

Gosh, there are some REALLY judgemental and insensitive replies to the OP on here! Without her even mentioning her mental health issues in the OP, it was clear (to me at least) that there was something else going on for this young lady. To the OP: I think you've had some quite helpful & sympathetic replies later in the…
