When you can grab your rolls. Also, when you start resenting the thin girls around you for no reason other than they're thin, and their legs look great. That's an unhealthy mind AND an unhealthy body!

Thanks for your responses, everyone! @chokhas @distinctlybeautiful I really like the idea of planning meals and snacks out. That way it's easy to just grab something and eat it and quickly log it. I love raisins, dried fruits--nuts etc--so I can probably whip together snacks for when I'm at work and what all. Fruit is…

@Penthesilea514 That makes perfect sense to me! Popcorn sounds like the type I'd go to--I kind of need to continuously munch, and if it involves hands then I go for it. Boredom absolutely triggers me into eating as well. As for filling proteins and fibers--that means things like rice and chicken, correct? I'll have to look…

Yes, please...

I have major problems with throwing away food/leaving things on my plate as well. I will eat other people's leftovers too because I know it will go in the garbage, so why not go in me instead?! It's such a horrific habit. I don't know if I enjoy eating or if I'm eating for the sake of it, at times. I used to think it was…

Good job, what a loss, 45 lbs is a ton! I don't have any pictures, but I used to be super big, slipped down about 50 lbs and... oh my gosh, not having to go to plus size stores or sections anymore is amazing! I used to hate clothes, but clothes actually seem exciting to me now.

No. I eat sweets or indulgent foods when I want them enough to go out and get them, which is rare enough, and don't dub it a cheat day or dub it a reward. It's just a day where I have to eat a little less or work a little harder. I used to think cheat days were a good enough idea, without having tried them. But the…

There isn't any miracle cream out there, so I'd probably stick to just using regular lotion every night and (seconding what Christy said) working your muscles to firm the skin up.

Honestly, I never had an exact moment. I've been bullied or at least teased by everyone I've ever met in real life about my size and my appearance at some point in time, except for family like my Aunt, grandma and grandpa, cousins, etc, probably purely because we never spoke long enough to get into it. Every friend I've…

@madeleadele Yes, it's Margarey Tyrell from Game of Thrones (No spoilers), who she plays in the television show. She's gorgeous! It's actually incredible fan art of her.

Bento looks seriously adorable. I've never genuinely considered making food for lunches in this style until I saw this. Props to all your cute lunches, you guys. I think this thread has converted me.
-
This sounds just like how I used to do things. If you have control over what is bought in the household, then just don't buy it. Eat before you go shopping so you're full and aren't tempted to things you love, and never step outside with intents on going to the store to get the junk food you're craving. Sleep, if the…

house stark please; secondary, i'd pick house tyrell. this seems fun!
-
@RossAH - thank you so much for your response. It's solid and makes me think a little harder. I know I can't focus just on the scale - there's so much more to think of, and I should appreciate all the little things because they'll all add up to something big. Like throwing pennies at a large debt! It all adds up. And…

is it just me or does psypha's comment sound like an automated sale spam?

Thanks for the replies you guys! Unfortunately for me swimming is out of the question until I'm below 200 lbs, as I can't stand to swim in public places. I'll take that all into note and do more walking! I've started doing squats again and I'll keep up with the weights, since I enjoy them anyways.

Me. I love my cat Scooter to death. He lays on my face every morning and I don't give a damn if he drools into my eye or nose, gotta get my daily intake of precious angel cuddles! But I live with other people, so... only two cats in this house. :( Scooter and Missi Moo, a Russian blue who is huge.

I can usually drink about 3-4 liters a day, or I'll sip from several water bottles until it starts just going straight through me, so upwards of even 6 liters, maybe?
-
Oh, I know exactly what you mean by this. I can't stand the sounds of people chewing, slurping, munching on gum, or muffled TV. I was once awful to my old friend because she would pick her nails and chew on them and I would slowly get more and more angry when I heard it. I couldn't even control it. It just sends me into a…

Breakfast pizza for lunch, lol. Made my mom some too. Absolutely TASTY!
-
A couple years ago we had a falling out. We didn't talk until last September, and I was the one who started talking to him again. Thanks for the replies, guys. @rach_melb Yep! My situation *is* similar. They seem to feed off drama and my mom gives me vibes that makes me believe she loves the attention, even if it's…
-
Thank you Chris! Your message means a lot to me. Everyone's does. What you're saying makes sense and it furthers my belief that leaving is for the best, even if it hurts. The "pros" outweight the "cons". I haven't had structure and stability in my life for so long and I think I'll gain that by the environment change.
-
I know once I lose all my weight and I'm at my goal I'm going for a major shopping spree if I can!
-
OK, people have asked so I will answer. I am not 24. I don't often pay attention when stating my age on sites. I signed up a long time ago, so I didn't think to change it. I *am* young (I'm not 13 or something though) but it's a little hard for me to admit so! I would be leaving my mother's home to stay at my father's…

This is so important.

1; I was on a computer in the library and some little punk wanted it - instead of confronting me, he just said "Oink oink oink... little piggy..." I was so stunned and embarrassed, I almost started crying. I just froze completely still and didn't move. 2; Other times were when in school we had to open up the webcam program…

It sounds like to me they're all misguided comments with good intentions but bad results. Like they're trying to make you feel better about how you looked before, and trying to say it was natural. My mother says I'm big-boned and "solid", so me being overweight "isn't as bad". I think they don't understand how hard you…
-
This. You have to love yourself as you are now.

I am far younger but I have been through a lot in my life as well. Drama and issues with people's mental health that slowly hurt *my* mental health. I lost all my friends because I never left my house and stopped speaking to them. But you can get through it! I do agree with the others, in going and seeing a therapist, if…

Being able to go shopping for clothes... and feeling happy and excited while doing so! And... to borrow clothes from my mum! It's sad I'm so much bigger than her. I want to be able to order the cute things I see online... I want to play dress-up and feel good on the weekends, go out with friends, and feel normal. I also…
