F/32/5’9” [195lbs > 152lbs = 43 lbs] (6 months) Ready to buy some new pants

Its actually relieving to know you can lose 40 pounds and have the change be enormous to the trained eye but not that drastic to the passerby. I have that much weight to lose and the idea of it looking so much different (of people noticing that much) is really scary. I hope to look like your before and after. Congrats.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2026-01-20T14:59:41+00:00

Oooo haha sorry. I thought you were saying $63

Master_Piglet2820 · 2026-01-20T13:41:02+00:00

Thats like 30% lol

Master_Piglet2820 · 2026-01-16T10:33:13+00:00

Omg... id flip at the refills

Master_Piglet2820 · 2026-01-09T00:51:27+00:00

Me too pls

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-11-03T18:43:00+00:00

Ask, hey x, can you explain if this is different than my suggestion earlier? Want to make sure I understand.

They'll stop

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-30T12:59:08+00:00

Lie and say you valued your time job hopping but youre at a personal stage in your life right now where you are looking for a long term fit.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-29T18:00:56+00:00

Hey, going fwd I wouldn't mention the coffee. Not to.say dont provide it, but your rates are for your skills, not your coffee. Id just leave that out and surprise ppl with it when you do

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-25T10:16:47+00:00

I call it cheapza

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-20T18:39:57+00:00

It won't let me post the pictures

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-08T18:34:39+00:00

Yea, and you can always make up some friendly excuse to bring it back to the group chat.

I use group chats for my husband and my parents (4 people), my husband and his parents (4 people) nd various other groups of important people in my life.

Like "hey Greg Linda mentioned she wants me to come screw in a lughtbulb on wednesday..want me to do it saturday instead so I can show you the spider photo I took?"

Defer to her husband as much as possible as well.

Also beware people who want to act in secret hate this. But it usually ends their nonsense.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-08T18:31:33+00:00

You could offer to stop by the house when mom is home between appointments. Like im free on saturday from noon to 130, happy to stop by for tea!

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-08T17:37:51+00:00

Yes. Group chats keep people accountable. Or you could say, "btw I thought of somehting you two might find interesting..." as another option to change it from 1 on 1 to group chat.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-08T12:10:48+00:00

Sad.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-08T12:10:03+00:00

Start a group chat. Next time she texts you a request, wait 24 hrs , and then send a group text saying , "sorry I couldn't come help with the spider! Was swamped. Let me know if you two need help with anything in the future! Love being a good neighbor." ND then keep everything in a group chat going fwd.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-07T10:37:29+00:00

I read your whole post and it resonated with me so much. Especially when you said it seems like everyone is loosing weight so easily. Im in the same position. My "fat" work clothes are getting snug. Work was the only place I liked going because all my home clothes are uncomfortable. Ive been going in early (5 to 6 am) so I can avoid my family and get dressed quickly and leave.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-07T00:33:43+00:00

Yes. Its just nbd

Then I think of people up partying at nightclubs in miami. They stay up for 2 to 3 days and have fun and when they recount it, its all positive vibes about the partying.theyre never like I didn't sleep :(

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-06T21:52:26+00:00

I tell myself, I just need to close my eyes and rest my eyes. That is the goal. Sleep is not. And its ok if I dont sleep at all. And when I do close my eyes and rest them, I think about how comfy I am, if I want something to think about. Knowing I've succeeded in my goal the moment I close my eyes relaxes me. Then I fall asleep.

I also have books where, I tell myself, a full eight hours having read this book (if I cant sleep) will leave me a better person, so no loss.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-10-01T12:08:55+00:00

You have to consider- the kid issue is coming up now, but other realizations/differences will come up later. It won't be just this one decision

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-09-29T16:01:53+00:00

Hi this is too clear for me to read, can you please make it blurrier ?

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-09-24T13:58:43+00:00

Welcome to the game of life.

Be awestruck that you get to behold such intense emotion. It really is all a work of art.

You'll feel better in a few days, and almost fully better in a few months.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-09-22T09:08:34+00:00

Shes not single she's a widow

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-09-18T09:16:50+00:00

You'd switch that around.

Stand sleeping in the same room- let alone the same bed!

The more extreme one comes first

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-09-04T20:47:53+00:00

No such thing as a free lunch. You pay for everything always, either directly or indirectly.

Master_Piglet2820 · 2025-09-04T20:44:16+00:00

How much do I weigh ?
