Weight Loss to bring home my scale or not?? Nov 23 2007

My Vote Is for taking it also...

You dont have to weigh yourself every 5 minutes just in the mornings to make sure you havent falling off The Diet Bandwagon...

Basically all I did was....

I ate ALL day..But not a lot...I would only fill my plate up so much...Then wait a few hours and eat again...Very small portions and it worked.

I woke up this morning 2 lbs lighter. LOL

Original Post by im2big:

Hi, My worst comment was while we were walking from the parking lot to the Target, I think, there was a homeless guy sitting on the sidewalk with his cart full of useless junk and a dog looking like it needed to eat a meal, he looks up as I am walking into the store and says, "My god, there ought to be a law against fat people like you." Now, I don't think anyone has ever said anything like that to me, knowing me or otherwise. I wanted to say back that at least I had a home and job, not sitting in front of a store pan handling all day with a dog that needed a meal. But, I held my head high and walked right passed him and all I said was, "I feel sorry for you!" Then I walked into the store and went to the bathroom and cried for 5 minutes. I had my heart ripped out of my chest that day. I know he was a homeless guy who was probably just feeling sorry for himself, but he really hurt my feelings. I started my diet plan about a week later after I had the money to buy the right food. Now I am 150 lbs. lighter, but I still need to lose another 150 lbs. before I can call it quits. Well, good luck everyone. Hope to see you all around the site!

 this is extremely disturbing to me. not because of the homeless person, but because of the response to the homeless person. do we forget that we're all human beings, and that your obesity is just as disgusting to a homeless person as "useless junk" (which actually happens to be a persons belongings) and a poor dog are to you?? seriously, what the eff? do you think you're better than the homeless person? like oh, at least you have a job? at least you have a house? god, that's upsetting.  a wrong (making fun of your weight) should not be compensated with another wrong (rhetorically erasing the existence of an unfortunate person whose life story you do NOT know). i agree, it's upsetting to be made fun of about your weight... but i really think your self-justification in light of the economic situation of the person who made fun of you is an example of why everyone hates americans. 

For One thing. She never said she said it out loud. Everyone thinks things in their head but its whether or not they choose to say them out loud or not!

Your not any better by saying this was an example of why "Everyone"  hates Americans. I am glad you speak for "EVERYONE". You could  have refrained from that but you didnt. I dont know why you took such offense over it. She said She could have said it but chose not to hurt his feelings.

Its Good For you to wake up in the morning and Eat!

Eating BreakFast Fuels your body for the day and you wont feel so hungry the rest of the day! :)  PLUS it speeds up your metabolism!

I use to have the Big problem of eating late at night too. I could go all day eating healthy portions. Then *BOOM* it was binge time1! I solve that by drinking a lot of water at night ( yes you might have to wake up to use the restroom but thats better than snacking!) I drink the water and Find things to do to keep my mind of Eating!

I Weigh myself Every Morning When I wake up and Every night.

At one point though I was obsessive about it. I would Weigh-In Every Single time I saw the scale. Like Bre Said Your weight does Fluctuate A lot. At least mine does and its hard to see it do that so I just do the Morning and Afternoon thing. :)

LOL During the day if I am off work and crave something I clean my car. I am always cleaning my car!

I live in Southeast texas and where i live is Dusty. My car is a dark blue Mustang so it gets dirty really fast so..I detail my car when I get cravings.

Other times I do the cleaning thing. In Example, One day i was sitting in my room that my dad just remodeled and I was looking at the huge entertainment center he built. He used regular wood so you it wasnt smooth I literally at midnight whipped out some joint compound and white paint and fixed the shelves LOL It was weird but it took my mind of eating and by the time I was done i was too tired to eat.

I also drink a lot of water when I crave.

I Rememer when I was in Junior high an older boy came up to me joking around being rude..and what not...

I lunged at him joking and he said "Hey Just because your 400lbs doesnt mean you can pick on people smaller than you" (One I wasnt pickin on him he was picking on me.  2 he was bigger than me and 3 I wasnt that big)

so I replied "Hey! Just because you look like an **** doesnt mean you have to act like one"!

I never really got made fun of to my face but the little things count.  Guys not payin attention to you. The "Pretty Face" comments and the boob comments....

my Ex boyfriend once told one of my friends he likes me because he only likes big butt girls. That hurt my feelings........

Ok Ladies i would first like to apologize for not loggin on it awhile...

I have had a very very very busy week...

On Sunday i found out that an old friend of mine was killed in Iraq Thursday August 16,  Thats 12 days after her 20th birthday and the same day as her sisters Birthday. In Fact she had called her sister a few hours before she was killed to wish her a happy birthday.

She was killed by friendly Fire....Someone she trusted.

So on Tuesday The whole town came out and lined  main Street when her body arrived from the airport....She was escorted by alot of Peace officers(constables), Our Hometown Police department, County Officers, and about 60 Patriot guard Riders with american flags.... She was in a white hearst followed by her parents in a limo and sister. People lined the streets to Pay their respects to "Our hero" .  Wednesday was her visitation....You wouldnt believe how many people showed up... Thursday was Her funeral it was beautiful...She was awarded medals...after the service she was again escorted to the cemetary by the same people and followed by a long long long line of cars...on the way to the cemetary there were people on the sides of the roads holding american flags, Veterans in their uniforms saluting her. We got to the cemetay and  They played the Bag Pipe, taps and gave her parents the flag...They also did a 21 Gun Salute. Her casket was guarded by the army people at all times....

I played softball with her when we were little and I just remember her always having this big Smile and such a Genuine Laugh...

Her name was Spc. Kamisha Jane Block from vidor texas and she was a Hero.

If you want to hear her story Search "Kamisha Block" it will show up

I unfortunately had to go through Hurricane Rita. The eye of it went through my home town...My house was completly ruined...The sucky part about that was evacuating and it taking 3 hours to get to a place that normally takes 30 minutes...

I am not looking forward to MRE's again.... or not being able to take showers!

Please everyone Pray that Dean Dies out!

I think the reason why i have felt depressed and my weight went up a little is because my current dose of levothyroxin isnt strong enough anymore... i go to the doctor Next tuesday so i Will go to the doctor and get a better dosage!
