Original Post by sunandmoons:

I see the disrespect here. If you need a friend to talk to instead of getting attacked I will be here. Some people, just because they have lost weight think they are dietitians and psychiatrists  I have seen some even give diagnosis.

The funny thing is we are suppose to be here to help others... not to insult.  I think for major questions you should talk to your doctor.. You have to remember the people responding where you feel attacked,  are here for a reason just like you. The site was not intended to pass judgment and it is unhealthy to do so.

I wish you the best of luck.

Thank you for the nice words, I couldn´t agree with you more!

Thank you peaches, someone just offered me great advice on starting to exercise and some good links.

People around me do not even know that sometimes my rolls bother me, I am very secure when it comes to other people, it just bothers me :) I could care less what other people think or not about my rolls to be honest.

Thank u kalico, i am just trying to feel good and look good at the same time. By changing my eating habits I have been feeling a lot better, more energy and extremely motivated for most of the time. I might be 5´8 but i have a small body frame and at my 131 pounds u see more flab LOL some people said that i should show bones by now, but I amnot medium or larged boned so that would be impossible lol My ring finger is a size 5, so it is hard to explain to people here that i just want to get rid of the rolls lol I eat about everything but make healthy modifications. I do not like most junk food so it helps...

Weight Loss Is it O.K. to eat the same foods everyday????? Oct 06 2009

I am not an expert but I have read a lot this days about diets of atletes and in most cases they eat the same foods everyday. As long as it is a balanced diet, why not, also if you do not mind even better. Like someone said before, if you are not rich, have time, or have chef skills.... then do what works for you best.

I keep some things the same just because I do not have time and to be honets they are tasty :)

Thank you for the motivation for some and the critizism for others. I just want to clarify that I am not suffering, just having a bad day like every other human does once in a while. Thanks for the reminder of taking a deep breath, it helped :) I do  do not look in the mirror all the time and think, OMG, but some days I just wish i could snip some rolls off LOL

There is nothing wrong with having your own standarts and wanting to look good.

P90X is great but I was not able to do the program due to an injury. I was once very fit and now i am not lol but I will start the program in November. A friend of mine (guy) has been doing it and he feels better and has been able to past the so called plateau...

You are right! Is one of those days when you just feel down and it seems like everything is wrong... I love my family and it is good to receive a kick in the butt here and there to keep you in line.

I do not want to cover my problem areas, I just have personal standarts of what i would like for myself and there is nothing wrong on wanting to look better in a realistic manner. I am not asking to look like some Paris model, just to be where I was before or close to it. I am just finding it hard right now.

I was once  happy with the way I looked in the past. It is hard when you had something and the lost it. I would probably not care if all my life had a bit too much on me but when you have a closet with 2/3 of clothes that you can´t wear, then it is hard :)

I will just keep motivated and hopefully with exercise I will make those stubburn rolles go away...

I do not want to live to standarts imposed by others but I do want to live up to mine. I am very confident in almost every aspect of my life. I know i do not look good in a bikini but i still go to the beach and wear a bikini knowing that i have a loose stomach and bags under my butt and big hips that do not match my uper body. I was once in my life very happy with the way I looked but in some point of my life, i lost myself and destroyed my body.

I am just frustrated today, I have lost all that extra weight and puffiness and all this 10 size dresses look like garbage bags on me now, but i still have the stomach and others that i mentioned. My boyfriend keeps saying that i am fine, but i know he is just trying to make me happy. When I went home to visit my parents, they all said that i gained too much weight and had a pouch!

I just want to be like before or close to it and no matter how much weight i loose the stomach does not go away!!!!!

Motivation A random stranger told me I was fat yesterday Jun 30 2009

People say mean things all the time no matter if the are Englishspeaking people or not. The important thing is to take things from who they come from. A would never take to heart a comment from a stranger. In my case, the comments come from my family.

I have the opposite situation, my family thinks that I am fat and the keep making remarks. I was a size 4 and now I wear 8-10. I understand that they are concerned but it really hurts. I have to admit that they have been my motivation for starting to loose some weight and tone up, but it still makes me mad.

Weight Loss I despised exercising! Jun 30 2009

I hate working out as well. I am doing this exercise program because I have NO ONE around me that wants to work out. I hate gyms! Last time I tried going to a gym, it was constant paranoia. My fitness level was a joke and people around me seemed so fit, so i quit! But I found out that working out at home is better for me. I still hate having to do it, but at least i do not feel horrible and can go at my own speed. The thing that I hate the most is the sore muscles the day after a work out. But we all have to motivate ourselves and just do it, day by day... in the end, we will feel worst if we are not happy with our body.
