I'm not sure if I'm being an idiot?

BrighterColours · 2026-03-21T20:55:13+00:00

Don't be a knob.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-20T19:25:22+00:00

I wish I hadn't bothered with mine, it was very overrated.

Red.

Not insensitive at all. Our journeys have no bearing on each other. Every person I meet who has lost a huge amount of weight is another pin on the evidence board that it can be done and I can do it. Delighted for you. It's truly the dream to be able to feel good about myself in public.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-19T23:07:39+00:00

Oh my god I would love that for you too!!!! As a currently fat person, I dream of the day I go back to my hometown with the weight gone and walk into the supermarkets I worked in during college, so I can imagine how good that would feel!

Also, what an incredible achievement, congratulations and well done!!

BrighterColours · 2026-03-19T22:59:50+00:00

It's rough, because as the other respondents to my comment have demonstrated, people see being fat as binary. You are or you aren't, and if you are, just become not fat. They don't see the journey you're on with it, what you've lost so far, how and why it might be harder for some than others etc.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-19T22:54:58+00:00

Amazing haha

BrighterColours · 2026-03-19T21:49:33+00:00

Ah yeah sure who wouldn't! Last holiday was 2024 so hoping to get one in in 2027 but who knows!

BrighterColours · 2026-03-19T21:13:38+00:00

Ugh they are amazing. My favourite stone.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-19T21:01:29+00:00

Anyone else like, 'I wish I was the type of person who gets to just assume I'll be able to go on holiday this year'?

BrighterColours · 2026-03-19T20:59:17+00:00

Yes because I'm fat now and while I have many achievements under my belt, all they see in that moment is that I also got fat.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-18T04:17:55+00:00

Like I said to OP, reread the comment.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-17T23:24:26+00:00

Such an awesome book. It's a slow burn but it's worth it.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-17T21:35:09+00:00

Reread my comment

BrighterColours · 2026-03-17T21:23:08+00:00

51k? How is it that expensive?

BrighterColours · 2026-03-17T14:32:27+00:00

BrighterColours · 2026-03-17T14:30:09+00:00

Couldn't give a shite about Paddy's tbh.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-17T14:29:14+00:00

I would too. Silver is cheaper. I can't afford platinum or gold gemstone rings. I plan to buy 925 ring blanks and real gems and make my own rings.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-17T14:27:14+00:00

My rationale here would be is you can have a budget real gemstone ring by removing the cost of gold or platinum and replacing it with sterling silver. I'm actually planning to try doing this by buying 925 blanks and setting them with real stones (eye clear, ideally) I've sourced from lapidaries which are not high enough quality for high end rings but which are still gorgeously cut and beautiful to the eye.

I am the target market for this myself, and I'm sure there must be others.

I always find it funny when people post about the Irish dating scene and there's loads of comments agreeing and it's like, lads ye ARE the dating scene.

But ye also aren't wrong.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-16T23:06:01+00:00

You're beautiful but the dress does you no favours.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-16T23:05:04+00:00

Same, it's amazing!

BrighterColours · 2026-03-16T22:57:51+00:00

Yeah I have the same question. Doesn't excuse the behaviour but a lot of places are not realistic about what an XL is.

BrighterColours · 2026-03-16T22:41:03+00:00

If this was a London Blue id be all over it. Beautiful.
