| I get that people would rather eat boiled bugs than chemicals, but at teh same time, I wish food companies could try and use normal ingredients for a change.
Or, if they don't want to do that, at least tell it like it is and don't hide ingredients behind different names. |

| Weight Loss | 5'6 goals? | Mar 11 2008 04:46 (UTC) |

| I'm 5'5 and 1/2"....I weigh some random number between 110 and 120( no joke, it changes almost every day, even when I weigh myself at the same time. I really just want to tone up rather than lose...but the good old eating disordered part of me demands that I drop to 100.
It's a strange sort of balancing act. |

| Foods | Does a low cal granola exist? | Feb 24 2008 01:25 (UTC) |

| A type of "granola" that I love is Kashi GoLean 7-grain crunchy cereal stuff. It's just like granola, only made without a lot of oil and sugar. it's very crunchy and filling, as lightly sweetened.
There's only 190 cals in one whole cup, which is a lot, and something like 10 grams protein. |

| I've been training my voice with classical voice lessons and I've been singing with a professional choir for almost 7 years. Before that I sang in my elementary's music department, and took piano.
Music is wonderful, and I hope to take up more instruments when I have more free time(chorus rehearses between 6 and 14 hours a week). |

| Thank you both for your really helpful commments. I am seeing a therapist, but this is something that may take years to get over for me. Just knowing that other people fell the same way helps me. a lot.
Also, a note: I'm trying to keep myself from losing or gaining, because I don't know quite what's best for me now... |

| I'm clearly not an expert but I think you need to incorporate more fats into your diet. The human body cannot survive without them. | |||
| Weight Loss | How can I lose wight and not see it at all? | Jan 16 2008 04:33 (UTC) |
|
| I should clarify-I have not lost 15 pounds recently-but this has happened in the past. And yes, i do see a therapist.
I'm inclined to think the weight is generally just waterweight when that happens, because I REALLY don't see a difference and because in the past the numbers on the scale went down really quickly. |

| Weight Loss | weight problems and depression | Jan 08 2008 07:32 (UTC) |

| I don't know anything about you or your weight, but I know this feeling so, so well.
Last year I became depressed. I am by no means overwight, in fact I'm on the thin side, but I could never see myself as beautiful. I hated myself. I saw myself as a worthless girl. I saw my soul trapped inside an ugly body, I told myself I wasn't living upi to my full potential, and that I never would because I was too fat and lazy to make a permanent change in my life. I closed up, stopped talking to even my best friends, and spent almost 6 months in isolation from everything I loved. I went through the motions of a normal life, but inside there was only this constant dull pain. I couldn't make myself take a risk, become a new person, change my life for the better socially and physically, so I took it out on my body. I starved myself and then I binged, and I hated myself every moment. I though people were always looking at me, always judging me for my lack of self-control. I always blamed it on food. You seem like myself and my situation almost all over again. But I want to tell you that no matter how utterly terrible you feel, no matter how worthless and used, no matter how bad it gets, you are a person of beauty and great value. know that someone out here sees that in you, and know that its only a matter of time before someone else does. Before you make positive changes in your life, you need to learn to accept and love yourself. I would highly recommend talking to a therapist about these issues. Healthcare covers some costs, depending on the plans. I meet with a therapist about once a week. Not all of the feelings have gone away, I still have relapses of depression, but I have been able to break away from that personal hell and become more comfortable with myself. I wish you the best of luck, and always remember that you are worthy of a beautiful and full life. |

| That reminds me of the time when I was in a foreign country where vegetarianism as Americans know it is not well understood(China). We had a group dinner from Subway catered in, and there were a few other vegetarians on the trip, so the group we were staying with ordered vegetarian sandwhiches. when mine came, it was lettuce and mayo on a piece of bread. That was so funny! I ended up eating ice cream for dinner that night. | |||
| Weight Loss | Holiday Gifts from clients--why must they all be food??? | Dec 22 2007 18:51 (UTC) |
|
| Though I'm not working(I'm still in school), I notice the same problem with gifts from friends, "secret santas", etc.
I'm planning on taking all the non-perishable, or semi-non-perishable gifts, like lollipops, unopened chocolate, peppermints, caramels, etc, portioning it out into manageable portions(epsecially the chocolate bars), putting it all away and out of sight in a box or a jar or something, and having a piece whenever I need a treat in the new year. If it's not all out of sight, I'll go bonkers and eat it all(I'm crazy for sweets), but if it's all nicely wrapped up and portioned, I'll be content to just take one and savor it. |

| Weight Loss | Trying to lose weight myself but I'm also "that friend" | Dec 22 2007 18:44 (UTC) |
17 |
| You don't have to be "that friend". Examine your intentions. are you giving her the junk because you need her to stay fat so you can feel better about yourself? Or are you doing it because you honestly don't know what else to do with stuff you won't eat? I think it's the second choice. You're not evil, you're just bogged down with junk food.
Ask your parents to stop sending you all that. And next time you want to share food with your friend(it's anice gesture after all), make it something healthy, like a verggie platter or rice cakes, or even take her out for a low-fat frozen yogurt. |

| He clearly has some problems accepting a higher-calorie diet. If YOU can't deal with that, dm4, then leave it alone and don't post. Yes, he clearly has ignored some helpful advice, but it's clear he's got some sort of eating disorder. Disorders don't exactly promote rational thinking, do they?
There's no need to attack him. |

| NONONO! A weight loss of 20 pounds(!) is amazing, and something most people dream of. Don't go on sizes in stores. I've been EVERYTHING( really. I've fit into a 0, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 8 all at different stores, but sometimes the SAME STORE). Sizing these days is B.S., so go with what fits and flatters. No matter what, know that you have already accomplished something huge and be proud of yourself! Keep doing this in a healthy weight and you'll feel even beter about yourself. |
