  • Chewing with your mouth open. Asking someone a question and not paying attention long enough to hear the answer. Telling me how to do my job when you don't know how. Calling me Missy or dismissing me because I am female. 'Look girly...'... fffffffffffffff >.< Not picking up after yourself. Being late and not telling me,…
  • The coke has nearly 900, I think 890... ish. Ouch.
  • From what I eat now I could go from dangerously low to VERY high so instead of the 10710 I'm allowed per week I'd easily say I'd be going easily near the 15000. With all the full fat dairy in HUGE portions (I could easily drink a litre of milk a day), chips, 2 sandwiches for lunch and huge portions of rice and wet dishes…
  • I count my water as I consciously am trying to drink more however as time goes on I am becoming much more aware of my bodies signals to drink before I get thirsty. I can usually say by looking at pee colour or just how I feel how much I've had without looking on MFP or my water bottle. Your body will absorb water from…
  • omg this. I get exactly this! My main reason that scared the pooper out of me was my nan being in hospital for the umpteenth time with a diet related disorder. She'd done all the dumb diets first, and then I did them. I was heading to be exactly her. I didn't want to miserable when I was older, sure she's made 80 but I'm…
  • That fat doesn't go away nice and evenly all over. Sometimes it goes away in pockets and makes you look like a garbage can that's had a ball thrown at it. Mostly you can't see it in clothes but the inside of my thighs atm are screwed! And when I lie down you can feel the pockets in my tummy. It's weird.
  • Apocalypse Pwnie is my derby name. I use the same names for most things so it makes it easy for me to remember and for my derby friends to find me. I'm also doing this for derby so it reminds me of my goals. Most people call me Pwnie though (pronoun - poh-nee) It comes from Robot Chicken Apocalypse Pony... my little pony,…
  • I eat normally beforehand however I will do a bit of a switch of the time I eat things. My day usually goes Breakfast - yogurt or oatmeal morning - fruit salad *walk before lunch at 11am* lunch - anything that fits with my 50c/30p/30f afternoon - 15gm raw almonds, 10gm dried fruit and 100gm cherry tomatoes dinner - same as…
  • I gained it back because I didn't take the time to learn about food and why I 'got fat' and was still fat at the time. I just thought what I was eating wasn't making me fat, it was the lack of exercise or that it couldn't make me gain back that quickly. I also did diets that were stupid and sent my body flipping out. Now,…
  • How awesome is the towel thing! I remember the first time that happened to me. Now my next is using one of the small guest towels without a gap! Congrats!
  • I'm 5'4 and I'm on 1550 to lose weight. Many days I make just on 1200 and sometimes go under. I go by how hungry I feel in what I'm actually eating, I pre log so mostly leave my calories till dinner. However if I'm under 1200 I'll drink a glass of milk or juice to put me over. I take vitamins to supplement my diet just to…
  • When people find out I play derby and think it's uber cool and awesome. I LOVE it when I'm wearing my league jacket (boo to summer coming along) and people stop me in public to ask me questions. It makes me feel on top of the world. Even the shy ones who just whisper (I can hear yoooooou hehe) make me feel really awesome.…
  • Neck/spine/head pain that has sudden onset and/or causes you to have to stop physical activity should never be ignored or written off. Better to be safe than sorry.
  • When I have a 'relax' meal I only call it cheat because people then know what I'm talking about. I've done it 3 times and just out of habits I've now formed I've only gone over once and only by 50 or so cals and that was having something at each meal I ate that day! I'm always under each day and end up with 5000-6000 cals…
  • When I worked in a government sector part of my job was adding children to profiles. 3 kids, Reef, Ocean and Island. I kid you not. Going with a theme there? My favourite ever name was Mingus. It just sounded so weird. My step son is named after Tyler Durden. Cool as!
  • I can! I'm 13.2 lbs or 6kg down. I think it's mainly because most of the weight has come off my biggest part which is my hip and lower tummy. It's really obvious in the way my clothes sit, ok I have a FUPA but whatever lol, particularly in jeans and skirts. Anywhere else is a slight mystery to me...
  • I was on 30/30/30 for nearly a month. I gave it a really heavy go and I did atkins for 6-7 weeks and it just got worse. I was even happy when my carbs were lower than 30% if my fat didn't go over. Not everyone works with low carb. I also do roller derby which requires endurance which eating that way was just wearing me…
  • Nope. I was trying the 30/30/30 method (I know it doesn't add up but the extra 10% went to whatever) and finding I was getting emptionally unstable. I tried atkins a few years back and within a week was a quivering mess so I guessed it would be the carbs. I have a high stress job and my brain needs food. Since upping it…
  • If that is honestly your diary I have some suggestions. Eat small meals frequently. Your eating pattern well... doesn't have a pattern. On days where you aren't eating much your body is going in to a bit of a freak out, it isn't sure if it's going to get the next meal or not. Your diet isn't balanced. It's very high carb…
  • Increase your water. There is also such a thing as too much fiber which will have that effect. If you increase water to at least 10-11 cups/day and aren't seeing anything change within a week I'd be seeing a doctor.
  • The wrap itself could be around 200-220 cals. The chicken is about 1.1 cals/gram and the salad I'd say about 30ish so I think 500cals would be either on the money or a little over. anywhere between 50-100 cals over but it's better to be safe than sorry!
  • People are ok generally with my choices as an adult but get weird when I get upset about what my step kids eat. It's like I'm evil demented cow trying to ruin their childhood by only using treat foods as treats. They do not need chips and ice cream every day. They do not need to eat a hot lunch every day with hot chips…
  • I'm a hot mess. The more I look like a cat vomit the harder I've worked. But my face goes red at just standing up so people think I'm going to die hahah.
  • oh man I look like a hot mess when I'm done hhahaha. The sweat patches on the knees is the best! 'I totally regret that workout' said noone, ever. Sweat is fat crying. I said that to a team mate who I was working with once, she completely lost it and put more effort in than I'd seen before.
  • oh oh! and deiting is losing weight, you're bound to find it again. changing your life is getting rid of it. For good.
  • There is no quick answer. You are winning if the weight loss is slow and steady. You will hit plateus. You will get sick and tired of counting. There are days you wont want to exercise. This is life, it's how it works. Just make up for it and learn your lessons.
  • I'm Apocalypse Pwnie. I'm with Newcastle Roller Derby League in NSW Australia. This week is my 2nd anniversary and I'm still pre-scrimmage. Granted, our league has very touch standards to meet but I'm a goober full of excuses. I'm about 2 weeks away from trialing with a team and doing mini scrimmage. I am so pumped and…
  • WHOOT FOR DERBY!!! You look incredible! I have a similar body type to your starting weight so I cannot wait to look like you!! Would you mind if I picked your brains about fitness drills? Our league is fitness crazy and loves getting our butts handed to us in hard endurance sessions.
  • The longer he's not shown that his behaviour will not be tolerated the longer and further he will go. Desperate people will do desperate things. I second the advice above. He has already given you examples of why he is unsafe and you should not be questioning your gut instinct. He is unhinged and should not be trusted…
  • Heart Foundation is an Australian thing. It was on the news a few years back citing the 'Kickstart Diet' deriving it's creation from the diet given to patients who need to lose weight very quickly for heart surgery. Ya know, if you're too fat to go under the knife. Even then it was considered risky as going to so few…
