How do you know what I look like? Do you have x-ray vision or something? For your information, I was making that remark in regards to MYSELF. I am a very supportive person! Again, some of the so called "people"on here just ASSUMED, I was bashing anorexia. By the way, I have body dismorphic disorder, so you can keep your…

Uh OK (again)....I was not criticizing anyone. I HAVE an ED, called body dismorphic disorder. And yes, in my opinion it IS sad. I know what it's like to look in a mirror and not see the real you. It sucks, not knowing what size you are. So I am NOT judging anyone, because I AM that someone!!

Uh OK.....Just to be honest....I HAVE body dismorphic disorder and I wouldn't wish it on any one. And, I don't go around "looking" for other people with ED's. You don't know anything about me or why I'm here. All my friends tell me that I am very good at motivating others! I was not criticizing anyone, because I AM that…

Uh yeah, I agree! There's a LOT of anorexia running around on this site.....Body dismorphic disorder at it's finest!! Sad really.....

Can I post a picture, if it's already in my computer? I Know, I'm a techno nerd....

Yep, that would be me. But I have malabsorbtion on everything, being a gastric bypass patient. I wonder sometimes, if I absorb any of my Omega 3 fish oil, I take. The only way to know where you're at with vitamin levels, is to have your doc run some lab tests. WLS people do it once or twice a year. It lets us know what we…

Depends on what is in there. The human body stores fat soluble vitamins and you can go overboard on those. Vitamin A, E, K and iron is fat soluble. The water soluble ones, your body does not store and you will flush out excess in your urine. If you want to get a vitamin that will help with hair growth take 5000mg of biotin…

Me too! #6. I think it's Derek Jeter.....sigh.....

I would say just keeping up with your workouts and push through this. We all experience plateau's. Your body is resting. Just keep going and it will start losing again. Besides, how is blackberry currant seed oil and seaweed, (I think thats the one you're talking about) how is that going to boost your metabolism? Remember,…

I looked it up on my favorite vitamin website (vitacost.com ,cheap shipping) and it is lactose free! Yay!! Thank you!!:smile:

It's just another one of those diet "gimmicks" that vitamin stores carry. No, it doesn't work and it's not cheap. When I was working at Vitamin Shoppe, it was $39.99. Thats a whole lot of money for something that doesn't work!

No. Not at all. In fact adding protein to your diet, (like protein shakes) helps you build muscle faster and therefore burn more calories. Which helps you lose weight. I drink one, when first getting up in the morning and one right after my workout. The L-Glutamine in them helps with musce soreness.

There's a disorder called "body dismorphic disorder". It's a real disorder and I've had counseling about it. It's very real and when you've got it, you actually don't know what size you are. Looking in the mirror does no good, you just see, what you want to see. A lot of anorexic's have this. I have it too. I've had…

[ Unfortunately, not enough of us are. All it takes is one snide comment or look to completely shatter any self esteem a woman might have. It happens every day..just turn on the TV or open a magazine. [/quote] Totally agree with this!!! Some women are just MEAN!! I hate the hater types!!! I'm a nice person! And yeah, I'm…

NO. Just NO. Do not ever leave your house, looking like that. And do NOT ever step into a Wal Mart dressed like that! You're gonna end up on the internet!! LMAO!!!!

Dating life? Whats that?? LOL

I have a 95lb pit bull mix named......Puppy. He's a rescue dog and I didn't name him. Previous owners kids did. I love him dearly!!

Cool! Thanks!

Yep. Me too.:bigsmile:

Jealousy. Good ol' green monster rearing it's ugly head!! Aren't other women fun? Blow it off! You're a gorgeous woman.

I did it almost 7 years ago. I had an RNY. I've recently had some regain, so thats why I'm here. To lose the regain. Add me, if you like.

I am 5'5" and my goal is 165. I have a large frame (on a short body! LOL) Anything under that I look gaunt and anorexic. By the way @165, I LOOK like it's 145. So it's all good. :happy:

I used to work at a vitamin store and we sold a boatload of the stuff. Some people swear by it, although I've never tried it myself.

I got nothin'. I'm boring. :laugh:

We had a ladies only section in my gym. Had, being the operative word here. Get this: some man complained and they had to make it for everyone!! Still, it's mostly women in there. We just glare at any man that has the guts to walk in there....:bigsmile: My main pet peeve is listening to some bodybuilder groaning loudly…

Amen to that!!! :bigsmile:

LMAO!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Yep, me too! I'm 5'5" and curvy. I look great at 165. When I did drop down to 145, people thought I was anorexic!! I looked horribly thin and gaunt. So 165 is my goal. Size 10. People never can guess my weight anyway, I have a large frame on a short body! I wanna keep my curves!:laugh:
