  • Why must a childfree woman be where you live? Have you considered moving places where more childfree women are? Major metropolitan areas have higher concentrations. I moved for my husband because I love and support him. We are both childfree and met online...and have been together for a decade. If a woman is really amazing…
  • Only if people are actually having to pull from insurance from obesity related issues should they have to pay more. I myself am morbidly obese. But do I have high blood pressure? no. Do I have diabetes? no. Do I joint problems from excess weight that necessitate treatment? no. I have extra weight, which I am working very…
  • looking good girl! I'm sure you'll lose that extra 10 in no time. And of course, the answer to any skinnyfat that happens after losing weight is always toning.
  • Congrats. Keep going and let this motivate you. I can't wait until I hit a 56 lb target...I have a ways to go.
  • Lol. I don't think OP cares about y'alls sausage measuring contest. Several days without a response? They're not reading anymore. You're not helping them out. They took the nope train out to f-that-ville the moment you started bringing egos into it. Might as well agree to disagree and go the heck home. Just reminds me of…
  • My gym does 12 week transformation competitions under the guidance of a personal trainer. They put photos up of the people that do them...and they are so inspiring. Everyone looks so great. So yes, you can definitely transform yourself in 12 weeks. You might not be at your goal...but I mean doing something is better than…
  • I was 317 when I started...and I stepped on the scale today to see 284.8. Yay! I need to get down to 145 or so...that's another 140 lbs, lol. I'm 5'10'', so taller than you, but we've both got a big chunk of weight to loose and will likely be at it for a while. Feel free to friend me.
  • Hey! I'm on Latuda for Schizoaffective Disorder, and it's an amazing med. It's made my weightloss possible. I'm at 293 and similarly am looking to go down to 200ish, as I'm tall and once I get there, I'll decide if I wanna go down any further. I'll send you an add. We need to stick together.
  • Thanks guys, I know it's hard not to beat myself up sometimes...but hey. At least I'm doing something about it now.
  • I gotta loose 100ish too. I'll send you a request. <3
  • I already have some friends, but I could always use some more! I'm 27, working on my journey of losing 100 lbs. Very daunting, but very doable, as others on MFP have shown me. I love to work out and am a beginning runner. I'm on here every day and will be for quite a while. :)
  • To anybody here, I've got 100 to lose! I'm happy to be anyone's friend. <3
  • Hello! I'm bipolar as well, and with medications, that's been a real journey. My first combination of medications made me shoot all the way up to 286lbs! I felt awful and was so uncomfortable in my own skin. My psychiatrist and I ferreted out the bad meds and replaced them with more weight-neutral meds. I was able to go…
  • Both me and my partner are childfree. Never wanted kids, don't understand the appeal.
  • Thank you for the post. I'm trying for 50lbs this year, since 52 weeks in a year of 1lb should be doable. Anything extra that I get will be a nice bonus. And hopefully in 2 years, I'll be nearing the goal. I'm training for a 10K. I can run a 5K quite comfortably, so right now I'm working on feeding my body with fuel,…
  • I need to lose 100+ (250 down to 145 or so). I could use a friend!
  • If I say that to somebody, it's because they're obviously trying to do something to gain my favor, and I don't know what to say that isn't insulting, when after all, they did do something nice. I say it when I want the person to go away, too, since it's a great conversation ender. I mean, there's nothing else to be said!…
  • Are you actually going to come back and talk about what's happened or is it that you just wanted to be "right"? Do you frequently call your boyfriend an *kitten*? If yes, two questions: 1. why are you staying with him and 2. why do you listen to him? Why does it matter that he thinks the unrealistic things? Grow a pair and…
  • I don't, but I seem to hit them most of the time without trying to do it. I think it's more of a ballpark. Like if you consistently eat many grams of fat over, maybe you should think about what you eat.
  • Last time I rocked a bikini, I was 215 lbs, wearing a size 14. I was hot. At that time I walked 10 miles every day so I had the best looking legs and butt on the planet. Now I'm 240 and a 16...I don't look so good anymore. But, one day!
  • I'm not afraid to call it like it is. When they say, "Oh, you should eat more, you're too thin"...I just say, "No, you're just jealous. I follow my Dr.'s orders." I don't tolerate sabotage...and the people in my life know this.
  • See a counselor. He needs to know that you're serious about how you feel, and he needs someone who is not you that can point out his flaws. If you try to handle it yourself, it sounds like it may only turn uglier. If it were me and my husband, I would tell him that I was going to leave him if he kept being unsupportive of…
  • 1 is easy to handle. One flash of a wedding ring and they usually get the picture. 2 is easy to handle as well. A swift kick to the balls usually does the trick. Let's see him alpha out of that situation. But then again I am a very strong, very forward, and very blunt woman. Those who date me must feel very secure in their…
  • I'm truly confused about the people with unsupportive partners. If you cannot support each other, why are you together? Maybe it's because I'm Aspie and don't grasp a lot of social nuances...but if my husband refused to support my new healthy habits, there would be two options--he can get couples counseling with me to get…
  • There are all kinds of supportive people here. I myself struggle a bit with exercise bulimia, but it's being treated so that I can lose weight in a healthy way. Feel free to friend me!
  • I went to Japan for a month on my honeymoon. I dropped 20 lbs while I was there. Portion sizes of rice are small, about enough to cup in your hand. The other foods would usually be vegetables, tofu (oh Japan was tofu heaven for me), and fish. All of this was served with green tea. Then the other part of the equation--I…
  • You need some water, babe. Like 1-2 glasses for whatever you drank. And if you have any B vitamins, that's a good choice to take as well, along with an aspirin. Totally been there....probably will be there tomorrow. Just be patient and hydrate!
  • I'm looking really hard at the Moving Comfort Juno...I think it will be my present to myself when I hit 20 lbs lost. (36D-DD)
  • When I was a child, eating breakfast made me physically ill. I would vomit--no joke. I didn't gain the ability to eat breakfast until a couple years ago...and I'm 26. So to the people that say force them to eat...NO! It's cruel. What worked better for me was a breakfast that I could take with me, like a bag of cereal that…
  • I can't eat when I'm sad, I can't eat when I'm anxious, and I can't eat when I'm angry. So, I'm more like you.
