so he finally called back, apparently his car broke down and phone died and how my being angry is justified.. so thats that, I m keeping an open head for now..I guess I m more relieved that a guy did not pull a vanishing act on me. |

I did talk abt future, i brought it up everytime, he always had an excuse, no job, too busy now, eventually the breaking point was his parents.. They wanted a doormat for him or a fulltime caretaker for them, which I almost agreed to at one point hence the almost engaged..anyways i think i m just going to close this book now.. I have had enuff of heartache.. |

thank u guys.. I m really thankful for my family and friends during this time, who have reiterated the fact that its good now and I can finally be free to find someone I deserve. For the record I dont care abt him at all.. if after so much time I find this info from frds then I dont have anythg more to say.. As to whoever is ending up with him, good luck to her.. shes really going to need it. I know i m coming off as catty but frankly I can care less, and after being there and done everythg possible, I know who got really wronged here.. But I believe in the fact that what goes around, comes around..And more importantly I am definitely free now.. |

Original Post by loriklorik: Well I was always kinda healthy yea maybe not this much, but I have gone through times with him when my weight has fluctuated before too(like when i injured my knee and was on crutches for a month). He was never mean, its just lately that he has become really vocal about it. What bothers me more is that he does realise but refuses to accept or acknowledge that I am working on it, its always like I am not serious about it.. anyways.. |

Thanks for your replies everyone, i do kinda know where to go its just that I was hoping things will get better with time, they are only messing up more. Well I have told him quite a few times to back off and be less of a meanie and he always comes back with i m misunderstanding and not addressing the "issue". I mean seriously its not that I have some major disease or addiction just a belly. anways I have decided biological clock or not I m taking a break from him if it becomes a break up then so be it. I need to be around positive people who encourage me rather than find faults. |

| Thanks for your support, I was almost of the verge of calling my ex with how can you do this to me again speech, but I just figured I will calm down and not stoop down to calling him.
I dated my ex for almost 6 yrs when he finally committed, it ended up in him disrespecting me and finally not standing up for me in front of his family, who blamed me for not doing enuff work around the house, this when we were not even married or living together, after everythg I had done. And somehow all this was my fault, coz I cud not do enuff and overreacting when being told on what I shd do. Well thats that, but I could sure use a break in my life.. |

| well it happened sometime back and made me feel real crappy for some time. I wanted my frd not to meet this guy I was dating mostly coz I thought it was still kind of early on, but instead she said coz he will think i m so hot..
Then later on one day she said, we should really wear mini skirts this summer, why dont u loose weight. I m not vain but I think my legs look perfectly fine.. |

| well the only thing is I did like this guy, but he started pulling the vanishing, distant act on me which leaves me no option but to call it off.. I know I shd not really care for someone who really does not wanna be around and as for my frd she knows perfectly well how crappy this situation has made me and thats wat is upsetting me.. | |||

| Oh I have been in this same situation for so long.. darn sometimes I want to get married just so that I wont have to find another roommate. I tried living alone but it was very depressing, I like living with a roommate but its the same issues, cooking cleaning who takes the responsibility, most of the people just live in aptt to sleep watch TV or surf net.. It gets really frustrating over time, I am moving now coz of this issue, keeping my fingers crossed that this roomie will be godsend. | |||

| I have always been a big time reader, dont get to do it that often now.. Since school we used to have a novel for each grade.. I got to read a lot of chales dickens, around the world in 80 days, Tom sawyer and so on..
Later on I was bigtime robin cook fan but even that died down with time, then ayn rand, lately P G Wodehouse (absolutely hilarious), I read the whole Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy series and douglas adams really brilliant man.. I like reading different genres read and watched namesake and loved both novel and movie.. |

| Thanks.. well yea i always thot he was a really strong upright kind of person but thats definitely not the case.. It just gets a little lonely sometimes.. and i know abt the no calling part i really am bad at keeping that.. he talks as if nthg happened and he still wants to be frds after dumping me for his parents which he calls was a mutual decision..
I used to really have a lot of faith in god, still do just a little shaken up.. they say everythg happens for a reason, I just hope i have grown to be wiser.. |

| Has anyone with hypothyroid experienced twitching legs, whenever i workout or take long walks, my feet go into this twitching mode all night long. Already sleeping is a task for me on top of that this consistent twitching makes it tougher. I was diagnosed long back and was on altroxin then moved to states and doc put me on synthroid, I gained 10-15 pounds suddenly, now I am back on altroxin not loosing weight but not gaining either. | |||

| Thanks for the link,I am allergic to pollen so this makes sense, it does happen with cucumber also but usually if I eat more. but I did not understand by what he meant you shud get tested to confirm, get tested for the specific food? I have quite some allergies, eggs (get cramps), kiwi, pollen and dust. God bless my parents they really struggled with me when I was a kid. | |||
| Weight Loss | Tummy problem! | Jul 02 2007 21:19 (UTC) |

| Thanks for the link, I do some of these exercises and being a vegetarian I do end up eating lots of whole grains veggies and fruits. Even I read somewhere abt keep your muscles in tummy tight and making it a habit overtime.
It sure is an uphill battle hopefully results will start showing up sometime eventually |

| Weight Loss | Swimming for weight loss? | Jun 28 2007 19:53 (UTC) |

| Thanks for the replies, well i enjoy swimming so far and I have almost stopped monitoring my weight just once a week. Sometime back I was really bummed out but now I am happy where I am, besides it my body and have to live with it so want to treat it well. It will be awesome to see my weight drop but I am not going to obsess abt it any longer, just enjoy the ride and treat myself well. | |||

| I have always had heavy period and working out I take it easy coz I think my body is already under a lot of stress and yes the pain too. What works for me is staying warm, drinking hot tea and hot bag. I just take long walks when I have my periods. I try to keep painkillers and supressants to minimum just 1 tablet before i sleep need to get good sleep. | |||

| Hello,
I am struggling to loose weight since quite some time now. I am 5'2 was around 136 pounds last year but had a rocky period and am on 150 pounds. I have a small frame and a lot of padding that needs to go. I am taking up swimming starting from this week have tried a lot of activities (elliptical, treadmill, step class, yoga) but except for increase in stamina I dont see any such weight loss. Being a hypo its tough already. I am ready for the challenge 8 glasses of water, ok 7 more to go for the day (does tea count?) |

| Hey guys,
Really appreciate your support, thot will provide a quick update. After thinking abt the two questions they asked (and no cheating) I did come up with answers. So I sent out an email to the interviewer today with the answers. Dont know what will happen next but I do feel good that I am not a dork or any less qualified. Heres to a great week ahead. |

| Weight Loss | Hypos.. bad news | Jun 21 2007 19:08 (UTC) |

| Its definitely depressing I am sure thats another hypo attribute. When I first got diagnosed that was like almost 10 years ago, I was really upset I was just 14 but I thot ok people have specs I take a tablet every day big deal.
I do drink a lot of water. I used to exercise in the evening but that was like being on caffine later on now I try to go in the morning, still I will be fresh and up all day long and will only get like 2-3 hrs max sleep each night only after 2-3 days my body will finally give in, did i mention I am a light sleeper. I am thinking abt going in for another test. The most infuriating thing is that slim people around will look at you and advise you(I know they dont mean bad) but it just irks me off, I mean they really dont know whats going on with me. |

| I hear you, I am sick and tired and feel like giving up so many time. I see so many people around me who eat whatever they want hardly ever exercise and still not even an inch here or there. As for me I just have to miss exercise one week and I will gain weight. Right now I am working out so hard, controlling diet and all this has done is just keep my weight steady.
Plus I dont know lately I have been having sleepless nights, I dont know maybe some fluctuation again. |

Is jump roping as good an exercise as running?
In terms of calorie burning, moderate jumping is about equal to running a 10-minute mile, although calorie burning is always a function of time... Read more
