You have been through a lot. You got this !

I think a lot of people are in the same boat right now. I spent several days without eating all day and then eating everything at 10 pm. Give yourself permission to breathe. We all have to get used to a new normal. Try sticking to a routine.

I second Yoga with Adrienne. She is very easy to follow.
-
You are so much stronger than you know!!! You got this. It's hard now, but it will get better. Take care of you and your beautiful daughter.
-
Shouldn't this be a question for your provider. I don't think you should take medical advice off of the internet. Make a phone call and follow up with your doctor.

I work night shift. I pre- log for the day that I go in to work. It makes it easier to not go over. And I bring my own food. It's the best way for me to not rely on fast food.
-
I'm also in school and working full time. What I do on my busy days is little bursts of activity. Park as far away from the building as you can, take the stairs, etc. Even a ten minute walk around the block helps. Use a fitbit and try to keep up your steps. Good luck!

I work the night shift. I have found the best thing for me is to be consistent with food. I plan my meals and I bring my lunch and snacks with me. I eat every few hours, and I drink mostly water, with a cup of coffee or two. I've noticed that most people eat junk and fastfood. I see my coworkers eating one huge fastfood…

I think you look great and quite handsome from your pictures. You are being very hard on yourself, and I agree with others that maybe talking things over with a counselor may be a good idea. And fyi when I looked at your picture you reminded me of an actor whose name I can't think of!!
-
The thing is, WOMEN and not "girls" know how to speak their minds. Maybe you are the one who needs to mature.
-
I think for most people around age 25. But if everyone around you is a "drama queen", then maybe you should learn how to pick better. You are the company that you keep.

You can walk anywhere. Even if you walk down the street for 10 mins and then walk back. You can always put music on and dance, it might be dorky, but it burns calories. And there is always free videos on youtube. There are several things that you can do without a gym, just get creative.

To be honest, I don't see a huge stomach, or anything in the realm of a huge stomach. Your body does need some fat to function properly and it may possible that you store anything extra in your stomach. I think you look great. But I think your issue is more with your self image. I would suggest that you continue to work…

I don't have a lot of advice. What I will say is that I don't think we were meant to live a life full of guilt and shame. I think that until you unpack what is causing you to feel so badly about yourself, you probably won't be able to tackle the eating issues. At some point you have to love yourself and stop believing and…

Do you have any friends or family that you can share this with? Can you ask your parents if they would help you? It might be good to speak with a therapist and join a support group for people struggling with the same things.
-
Make small talk with her. Try to be friendly and get to know her over some time. And then after that you could ask her for her number, or ask her out. If you are a little rusty with dating, be patient and have realistic expectations. Don't put a ton of pressure on yourself, focus on being confident and having fun. Keep…
-
No advice, but based on your pics you look great!!! Maybe you should accept the overall package instead of one part.
-
Have you tried eating more protein, and eating every few hours? Your diet choices are not sustainable for you, if you feel that it is torture. Try something else before you give up. Have you also looked into strength training?

I did have a parasite once in my intestines. The only thing that I craved was some serious meat. It was the only thing that satisfied me during that time. The parasite did not like carbs or anything surgary lol. But like the biggest cheeseburger I could find. It was not a fun experience.
-
Do you think maybe you are trying to make this about fat acceptance and other people, when you losing weight is about you. If you want to be healthier, lose weight, get in better shape, that doesn't have anything to do with fat acceptance. You can accept your friends for who they are, but make different choices for…

I don't know. He is an adult, but he is still dependent financially on his mom. This sounds like more headache than I would want at that age. College is full of opportunities to meet guys. I would say this probably won't end well. He hasn't cut the cord from his mom, so this relationship will be full of her getting over…
-
I'm so sorry for your loss. Hugs and prayers, I hope God's peace will find you.
-
No, don't try to lose weight while pregnant. You need to make sure you are getting all of the nutrients that you need and you don't want to put your baby at risk. Speak with your doctor about what a healthy weight gain would be for you.
-
You are extremely hostile. Please leave. You don't have anything valid to offer. Didn't you say you were going to watch a movie?
-
I'm not married, but I would think it's best to talk with him about his weight if it is bothering you. I don't think I would bring up that I'm not feeling attracted to him, but that I'm concerned for his health, etc. These kinds of things ebb and flow, so I don't think you are wrong for feeling that way. If your marriage…

That sounds like a success to me! Great job on the hard work. And remember karma is a total B! She won't always be cute. Lol
-
Do you check your blood sugar regularly? Are you taking medication? If you are eating 60 grams of carbs at each meal, plus meat and veggies several times a day, you could reach 2,000 calories. Self-management is huge with diabetes, so I would recommend you seek out more information. Go to the library and check out a couple…

Donate the bras and toss the underwear.

At 17 some guys are still growing and they aren't at their final adult size. I think men can keep growing into their early 20s unlike most women who stop getting taller around the mid teens. This one study doesn't mean that you will always be fat. It would be more definitive if the people they used were older instead of…

LOL! I'm convinced Taylor swift dates guys just so she can write songs about them! I mean John Mayer, come on! Everyone thinks he is an a hole.
