Bump for inspirational words from some inspirational people. I :heart: MFP.

Wowza. Loving your work here, honey. :glasses:

None of these have my 'ideal' shape. They're all apples except no. 3 who's pear/curvy. Maybe her with half a stone off.

It's the same in the UK, now. You can't send the kids in with sweets, chocolate, biscuits, dippers or fizzy drinks for snacks, or in the lunchbox. I'm assuming the OP lives and teaches in the land of the free (market)? Things changed after there was a furore about 10 years ago started by celeb chef Jamie Oliver - he made…

Wow - beautiful face, figure AND outfit. Enjoy the new you! :flowerforyou:

Trolling - popcorn gif. It's the adult (?) version of standing round in a circle yelling 'fight, fight, fight'. Don't feed 'em folks, is my advice to you. Peace out. :glasses:

The irony is that the two things that irk this small group the most are: 1. the people who refuse to take their advice on board 2. the people who are sensitive to criticism They won't contemplate criticism of their behaviour, no matter how many times it's raised by the group as a whole, nor how positive and constructive it…

That's horrible. It's best to report the rude posts to the mods then put them on 'ignore'. They'll all get banned, eventually. :smile:
-
Hey there, I do the same thing... it's hard to know what to say, just log it, own it and get back on track as soon as you can. Everyone does this - everyone. I don't think taking laxatives is the way to go... that's kind of punishing yourself. Eating too much has no moral value.. you're not a bad person for doing it and…

It's too late for that. Battle has already commenced. The white flag is the only option, now. OP I'm sure you're lovely but really, she's sucking you in and getting off on the fact she's winding you up. Just disengage - don't sink to her level. Like others have said (if you really don't want to change your routine) -…

It's just typical group behaviour. Initially group members tend to communicate politely, if guardedly. Then conflict arises - how the group deals with the conflict determines its future success. Groups that stay in conflict will either dismantle or become dysfunctional. Once conflict has been resolved the group strengthens…

Why weights? For me - I hate cardio (unless it's skiing or running outside by a river on a warm day). I want to be strong (weights) and flexible (yoga!). I'm just starting out, really, but I've already found my posture's better and my lower back isn't as dodgy as it was - I was afraid it would make it worse - I would say…
-
No. It's hate, alright. Best to report any posts which cross the line to the moderators. Don't respond to the people that post inflammatory comments, just put them on ignore. They want to engage you - they want to upset you, it's all they know. Pity them.
-
OK I'll be the brutally honest 'friend'. Your attitude isn't great, here. Back off and change your routine so it doesn't clash with hers. It takes two to sustain an argument - even a silent one. Also try not to sit in judgment on other people's leg size or workout routines. Hope this helps! :flowerforyou:

Teen Spirit.

Kat, you're my biggest inspiration on here - a little comment from you can turn things around for me, on any given day - you're very perceptive, to the point of gifted. XX
-
This is ridiculous. Instead of throwing the '*kitten* food' in the bin - throw the larger people who bring it in instead. Eliminate the source. And then their families and pets, too. Go nuts! :drinker:
-
Yay! You look like you have lost WAY more than 30lb. Incredible difference - well done, lady! :flowerforyou:
-
I did the EXACT same thing last month. Don't stress, you've had your lightbulb moment and you'll be back on track tomorrow. It's a setback, but in the long term, it won't matter. :flowerforyou: ALSO - I ate the same things - naan bread, Snickers, peanut butter, scones, apple pie etc. And I had a ton of Brie. Love Brie.…

I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my Granddad did. Not screaming in terror like the passengers on the bus he was driving. :laugh:

When I FIRST started reading this thread I didn't.... now, well, I just don't know any more.... You just have to decide what you want America... do you want consumers - the obese people who buy all the stuff and eat all the stuff OR do you want healthy people who will cost you less in insurance? Which is more helpful to…

You're amazing! And you look 20 years younger, now. Well done.

Hey there, BMR plus exercise and moving around etc is called TDEE - Total Daily Energy Expenditure. TDEE - 20% is a good rule of thumb, and you don't need to log exercise. I'd go for 'lightly active' based on what you do - which gives you a daily calorie allowance of 1,316.
-
Sorry you're going thro this. :( I don't have personal experience with an ED... but I went through a few times when I couldn't eat when I had depression. I had like a food phobia. I had no appetite. There was no point eating... because I had ceased to exist and there was no 'me' and no point in anything. I was also…
-
Firstly OP - I love your style, and your honesty. I like the way you think it's refreshing to see. You're not just an echo. I think health professionals are concerned about the 'obesity epidemic' simply because obesity is really, really bad for your health and contributes to other illnesses and problems. Isn't it a good…

That will definitely go. Definitely. It's not very big at all and you will snap back into shape, no problem. Your co-worker is either not very bright or mean. Possibly both? Everyone's body stores fat in different place - yours stores it on your tummy. Some people, when they lose, lose evenly all other - with others…
