I wish it was that simple for everyone! It's the bare essential idea of what losing weight is about, but some people have unique circumstances that require just a little more input. But yes, eat less and exercise more is always the basic message for 99% of people.

I think what's disgusting is that the people who should have helped her see what this choice has in consequences ignored how she felt and pushed their own ideals onto her. They had no eye for how it made her feel, no eye for the fact she tried to starve herself and making assumptions all over the place. It's disgusting…

I looked at their EU store (I live in the Netherlands) and it costs €68 for me to buy one here, which is $90 and way above my budget for clothing. They also don't carry my size (I'm an E-cup, European size) as they only go up to a 40D (I'll need a 105E EU/46DD US size). Thanks for the link and comment though!

Sorry to disappoint! Haha. I'm already walking at least 30 minutes, 4 days a week. :) I had a big one of 60 minutes today where I walked to visit my parents and back home. But I want to be able to do exercises indoors when the weather is crappy too. And that's been suggested multiple times now so I'm DEFINITELY trying that…

9am-10pm are the common hours of acceptable daytime activities over here actually. They often have music up loud until 9:45pm and then towards 10pm they turn it down, so I don't think they'll have much to fuss over if they do decide to quibble. But, I don't plan on exercising that late! 8pm will be my latest most likely. :)

Thanks for all the replies! I will try my underwire bra (the only one I have left, I usually cut out underwires once they start poking out and stabbing my sides) with my sports bra over it. :) I don't have a tank top with a built in bra, but I can look into getting one the next time I have clothes money set aside. I don't…

I also think you have motivation and goal mixed up in your post, which removes a lot of validity of your claims. Yes, it's easy to lose sight of a long-term goal. So instead of saying "I have 100 lbs to go", take it by 10 pounds at a time until you're feeling awesome and satisfied, then make it your goal to remain a steady…

I already prepared myself to not see ANY loss in the first 1-3 weeks, so no worries about me freaking out later on. :) I'm prepared for it to slow down! I'm glad it's not abnormal though, I don't want to lose it unhealthily fast. Thank you! I'm glad! I expect the same thing will happen to me too then. :) Thanks for sharing!

What the posters above said is true - not logging foods or eating below 1200 calories (if that's why your log shows gaps) will hurt your body's ability to lose weight. You have set your daily calorie goal to 2,322 now after you had it set to 1,500. How tall are you and how much do you weigh now? I'm 6'1"/1.86m and weigh…

I make it a point to take vitamin and magnesium supplements as well. I'd rather have the excess go out with my urine than have a serious deficit! If I'm doing okay I try to cut it down though and get more through my food. The weight gain is something I struggle with too! After 3 days of not going, the scale just doesn't…

I found that the only reason we're hurt by other people's words is because we use words to hurt other people ourselves. I've called people names (not proud of it) and looked down upon them. That's why being called 'fat' and other names really hurt me and damaged my self-esteem. The second I stopped judging others and…

Friended you! And thank you, I don't feel terribly big/fat either. Like I said, I'm big in build and not really supposed to be super skinny. I just have some excess fat in my gut and upper arms that I'd like to do without, otherwise I'm totally fine with how I look. :)
