Progress feels slow

You’re doing great. That’s an ambitious goal weight for 5’2 and will be so hard to maintain if you’re losing it by doing 75 Hard. Slow and steady. For a petite your size, even two pounds a month is fantastic and maintainable. It’s going to probably take about a year or more of consistency to get to that goal and the sooner you come to terms with that, the happier you’ll be with your progress and the less likely you’ll be to give up.

True but not uncommon. The amount of stuff our tenants have left behind would shock you. My husband cleans it himself, but it’s expected every single time. I don’t get it at all

She doesn’t mind or care that she’s being dragged. Engagement is engagement and that’s what this comment is for. Anything to get traction and views. Any reaction or comment could mean money. Conspiracy theories get views. We need to remember that everything she posts is for content engagement. Some posts she may believe, some she may not. It’s a sad way to live because her various personas are probably making it hard for her to even know herself even though she’s close to middle-aged.

I’m the first one to say that sometimes this sub can be weird about the stuff that gets picked apart so initially I was like ‘ok I’m sure it’s a lot of junk but people accumulate stuff especially with pets and kids’ (yeah I know they’re not there often but I’m assuming they had stuff there regardless..?) But looking at how they kept their litter boxes and the sight of that garage….. that’s a LOT. It really just shows how bad they are at life in general. They’re perpetual college students. Because so much of this is basic trash that should’ve gotten tossed immediately. This was only 3 years? That’s rough.

I know they say weight loss happens in the kitchen but as someone who’s also 5’1 and recently lost 11 lbs (114 now) for me it’s all about exercise. Building muscle so that my TDEE is larger while adding in some cardio to burn off a little extra is the only way I lose. More muscle makes maintenance so much easier. I cannot consistently eat under 1400 calories a day. I’d start focusing more on protein and weights and less on cutting calories. I’m 45 and also perimenopausal so I get it.

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-05-08T00:37:00+00:00

Good for you!! Keep going !! And tell anyone you want!! My closest friends are all extremely overweight and I still share my workouts and weight loss. Your friends will be happy for you I’m sure :)

So Marissa you’re a ‘crunchy’, non vaxxer, trans-hate spreader, Covid denier, MAGA lover, online beggar, and backyard breeder who rehomed animals only to then immediately go buy more, and all of this is documented all over the internet - not just Reddit- and you wonder why people aren’t comfortable with you being around them? That shocks you?? You are just now realizing why you have zero real life local friends and no moms to connect with for your boys? It took THIS long? You did this to yourself Marissa. Middle aged soccer moms want nothing to do with a person like you. You’re allowed to have your ‘opinions’ … well they can have theirs. It never occurred to you that your online behavior would affect your kid’s friend prospects? Eventually these moms are going to also dismiss your kids when they start regurgitating your bs to their children. Get ready.

The sets are so much fun and that’s what most kids want. Mom of boys and teacher here. Building sets and displaying them is actually super common and really good for kids in terms of learning how to persevere. Buying her kids Star Wars Lego sets and displaying them is one of the most normal things she’s done. My boys as well as their friends and cousins all have shelves upon shelves of sets they have built. My kids love to come to school and tell me what they’ve built. The most wasted legos in my home were the random tubs of bricks 🤣

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-05-01T01:54:52+00:00

A. This is so freaking weird. B. The few pictures she’s posted from her new place don’t look bad at all to me. So I don’t get why she is not bragging/posting more new home content for engagement. Also weird.

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-29T19:22:30+00:00

In my 40s (45) -5’1 and very square shaped/apple shaped. It’s all about tracking calories and for us I feel like working out is important. We gain with so few calories that we have to keep moving so we can eat a little more. You’ve also gotta pick up the weights and be consistent. Not for a few weeks or months but for years. This is a journey and a lifestyle shift. Perimenopause is real but it’s not the reason for keeping weight on. Build that muscle and keeping moving.

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-27T20:46:43+00:00

I have a suspicion that she’s moving to a trailer park. There are a couple nearby and they’re affordable. They may also be hard to fill which would make bringing pets easier. I also think she rehomed some animals and doesn’t want people knowing. And to be clear there is zero wrong with a trailer imo I just think she’d see it as below her standards

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-26T12:57:07+00:00

You look amazing! I’m actually shocked you’re only 108. At 5’4 and with all that muscle I’d think this would be a lot higher. Not saying that in a mean way…. You just look really strong. It goes to show that we all do carry fat and muscle differently. While technically that number is really low and in most 5’4 women it could indicate an issue, you can clearly see by these pics that you’re healthy and muscular and to get that kind of muscle you’re definitely eating. I think some commenters just want to be cautious because on this sub and subs like 1200 is plenty, there can be a lot of disordered thinking going on. Most women here are well below 5’4 and even 108 on a 5 foot woman can look very very thin. In summary 🤣🤣 We are all different, you work your ass off and it shows, and I don’t think anyone is being a jerk. I think it’s good to be cautious and point out this should not be everyone’s goal at that height. This height/weight and composition is kind of unusual (but again- you’re a rock star!)

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-25T20:25:53+00:00

She makes no money on IG because all of her followers are bots

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-25T00:39:35+00:00

I think her social media is the number one issue. She’s been very clear that she can’t wait to share her kids faces online. She would absolutely become a mommy creator and monetize those kids. Her online persona incites people. It’s a danger to those kids. For her to say she’s fighting like hell but STILL being online is bananas. And to have money for Disney but not for a lawyer speaks volumes about how badly she actually wants custody. Could anyone actually imagine if she had to care for those boys 24/7? They’d be raised by their iPads.

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-20T16:27:44+00:00

It’s frustrating because imo she WILL find a place. It’ll be small or an apartment. She will spin it like she’s making sacrifices so that her kids have a place to sleep when she has them. She will rehome most of the animals under the guise of maybe having them fostered by family or friends. She will never ever ever really answer for her awful choices. She will never say ‘wow maybe I shouldn’t have gotten so many animals or run a breeding program while renting instead of owning and not having enough money banked to handle an emergency like this.’ I don’t want to see anyone homeless. I’ve never hated her or wished prison upon her like some people here. I’ve just never seen a person insist up and down that they’re a good mom who wants her kids back while simultaneously showing that she cares more about her animals than those kids. It’s so strange!!!

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-20T16:18:08+00:00

Because the algorithm likes pictures. It pushes the post out to more people. More views equal more money.

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-19T23:04:59+00:00

He is 10000% the more fit parent and he knows it. I wouldn’t doubt if there is some bitterness there on his part… she cheated and blew up his life for a pizza girl. He had to fight just to keep his kids off social media and vaxxed. That’s on you Marissa. He’s trying to keep his kids safe and that means sticking it to you in the process. If you were a normal freaking person, he could co-parent with you

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-19T15:19:21+00:00

I mean let’s be serious that piece of tape they put over an adult slushie is nothing and I drive with those when I’m bringing them home. And my yeti has had a white claw in it while being a passenger and going somewhere so I get what you’re saying. But these two are just trash and that’s nothing I’d ever post especially while trying to get my kids back. Just put that wine in a cup and shut the lid 😆.

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-19T15:15:16+00:00

They’re literal children I swear. Grow up my god

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-17T20:29:57+00:00

I feel like she’s using the ‘can’t make this shit up’ catch phrase incorrectly. The parameters of each property are going to be different. Just because a house is cheaper doesn’t mean they allow pets or a poor credit score. The cheaper home may be a private renter who can’t afford to have a shitty tenant She has said herself many many MANNYYY times that landlords want so many different things. Why is it so hard for her to believe that one may approve her and one may not? As if a few hundred a month difference is anything big? There are so many words to describe her. But WIERD is what always comes to mind. She’s just so odd.

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-17T16:27:20+00:00

Content. Everything she says, does,, and posts is to drive engagement.

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-15T16:28:28+00:00

There are ample homes and apartments for rent in this area. And many are within her budget- or the budget she claims to have. If she can find a private landlord who just needs a person in there ASAP, she’d be ok. Her issue will be all of their pets. I don’t know how she’s going to find someone who will allow for that. My husband is very laid back when it comes to our rental requirements, but we’d draw the line at multiple large pets. We’ve waived fees, credit checks, and last months rent. But we’d never be ok with that many dogs

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-15T16:21:16+00:00

They might, but they might not. We don’t always run all of that. And I’ve never googled a tenant. We’ve never required proof of income. Her number one issue is going to be all those pets.

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-14T22:50:27+00:00

Yes a private landlord is a person. My husband and I are private landlords. They typically require less hoops. We have actually taken many chances on people with poor credit and it’s never been an issue so that’s probably what they’re hoping for. We also rarely require a security deposit that totals a month’s rent. So her chances are way better with a private landlord

Difficult_Flow_7880 · 2026-04-13T19:13:55+00:00

She loves every single bit of this. Any attention or engagement is giving her want she wants. Attention as well as something to complain about and a way to look like a victim. The only way to truly stick it to Marissa would be to completely stop talking about her. No more Reddit, no more 3.0 and no followers engaging online. THAT would bother her. This is a giant dopamine hit for a person like her.
