I'm just paranoid b/c what if it's not...

nah, im good with the one I have. And while it isnt "his journey", part of being a couple is supporting each other. While it would be ridiculous of me to tell him he can never have junk food and he needs to start measuring his food like I do, I dont think im asking too much for him to be a little more health conscious…

Ive def seen doctors since then, and have been working on my self image issued. But, due to years of backstory, this is obviously going to take a lot of time. HOWEVER, if you read what i said and my comments to others, i eventually say that i was eventually okay with the weight I had. While i still dont fully love myself,…

I feel like whining would be more like "ohmyyygaaaaawd i sit on the couch all day and eat nothing but carbs i dont want to go to the gym cuz its haaaard so dont tell me to do that and dont tell me to eat veggies cuz those are gross!!! But how can i lose weight without calorie counting?" Pretty sure what im doing is stating…

I never said he made me eat snacks, i said it influenced me which (in my opinion) is still me blaming myself. I full on admit there and in the comments that its my lack of self-control around snacks and lack of motivation. I never said i wanted instant results, thatd be unrealistic. I know its going to take time, just as…

I would LOVE to walk by myself in the day time... but by the time I'm off work its dark and i don't feel safe :'( i had to beg my boyfriend once to bring a book and walk with me to the gym (not even work out with me) and he acted like i was asking him to cut off his arm...

I am 5 foot and a half inch, with a large frame. The most I am supposed to weigh is128 according to my obgyn and a lot of sites ive seen. The lowest im supposed to weigh is 113-115 with my frame, 95 with just my height (lol unrealistic for me)

Ever since i was 200 lbs (joined MFP at 180) ive been so scared of being that much again. Not only is it bad for my height (5 ft and a half inch) but my mom verbally abused me over it

1) start meal prepping and hopefully make it a habit before my bf gets back from cali 2) walk the dog more 3) portiom control I texted my bf and he said hed do is best to be healthier and eat less junk around me :)

i had no idea water retention could be that crazy!

Your response is so relieving! Thank you so much!

I honestly don't know how I breathe haha but i do know that that can be a problem! I'll try to pay attention next time :)

When I was losing weight for the sake of weight loss a year ago I would be a little bloated after working out... but not this bloated! Does your weight gain last all day in a noticeable way?

I'm not "testing" anyone or begging for attention. This is the motivation and support forums. I'm looking for motivation or helpful ways to stop feeling this way and maybe some advice on how to lose the last few pounds. I don't have an eating isorder.... I don't purposely starve myself, and I don't binge and purge. I will…

5'.5" (yes that point five matters to me ha-ha)

TDEE?

I haven't been keeping track of calorie s at all cuz I ended up just eating almost the same thing everyday, so I knew it didn't go above my limit. I determine the calories I've burned either with a pedometer or whatever the exercise machine says.

No I do cardio whether it be long hiking, running or the elliptical.

i know, but it didn't become noticeable on my body until I started losing weight. Like really light stretch marks became darker and deeper as I lost weight. That's what I really meant by "developed"

I'm really sorry about your loss. I try really really hard to appreciate having my mom... but she's put through me so much **** and makes me feel like **** and so it's hard.

I'm... I'm really short.... about 5'0" ... so it is "overweight" ....

Umm... actually my therapist has also said she is toxic and that it "may be wise" to get her out of my life.... We have a really ****ty past together and, yes, it was full of abuse. It's just really hard when she says things like "I'm trying to make up for the past" and I ... I guess I fall for it. I give her chance after…

We fight... a lot. We disagree on so many moral and personal standards, and if I don't agree with her I'm a "horrible child"... then she'll go for months with not talking to me.... which I'm actually fine with. Then after a while she'll start talking to me and saying "I need you in my life" or "I'm trying to atone for my…

She used to be really really obese when she was in high school... .but I mean like almost 300 pounds. She's like 140 now I think. So idk if her being bullied as a kid made her crazy and angsty towards me or something...

22. I've tried and she sorta just.... blows it off or says I'm over reacting.... I know it's an unhealthy relationship... but it's hard to cut it off b/c it's my mom. We have a very rocky past and she's always trying to "fix that" .... so part of me is trying to see it as her actually trying.... but maybe I'm just fooling…

That really sucks. I'm sorry things turned out this way but you did what was best for you. I hope things remain peaceful between you guys for your kid.... and if they don't I hope you have the strength to work through it.... my parents were divorced since I was little and always fighting .... made me feel like ****.

Yeah, out of the three my boyfriend hates how skinny he is and he actually wishes he could gain a few pounds. My buddy doesn't care about her weight really (which i guess is good cuz then she's not self conscious). But Cat is always bragging about how good she looks and how lucky she is to be able to eat what she wants…

a kitty jumped from nowhere!

This. Is. Sparta.

I hated how much of a shadow my stomach used to cast.... Now it still does, but it's almost gone :3 I can't wait for my stomach to be so flat there is no shadow. I also used to hate how I couldn't feel the bottom of my ribcage even when i was laying on my back... but now i can :)
