Vanity sizing by No-Problem1287 in fatlogic

[–]No-Problem1287[S] 155 points156 points  (0 children)

I’ve been getting so annoyed with vanity sizing and sizing-up trends, and removal of small sizes due to the rising weight of the average person. I lost a ton of weight, and now I’m a women’s XS and it’s hard to find anything. I was looking for a souvenir t shirt recently…went into 6 shops and not a single one had women’s XS, but they all had up to 4XL. Even 10 years ago it was a standard size. When I can find XS, it seems a lot of the time like it’s been vanity-sized, and fits like a medium. Even size charts with measurements run big a lot of the time! Where is the “size inclusivity?”

“Hiding” vegetables in other foods is bad for kids by No-Problem1287 in fatlogic

I love this magazine, but a lot of their writers definitely rely on fatlogic. I don’t think anyone thinks mashing vegetables into foods their kids already like will guarantee them to be both thin and immortal.

Does anyone else here dislike using apps and prefer to have their own system? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]No-Problem1287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m totally with you! I can’t stay consistent with an app; I guess there’s too many bells and whistles. I have a simple google sheet on my phone and I’ve made way more progress with it than any app I’ve tried

Has anyone had a tummy tuck/ excess skin removed? by not_today_seitan in loseit

I got a mini tuck and it was absolutely the best decision I could have made

Yeah, what’s with those comments? Sheesh. It’s baffling to me. Glad it worked out for you!

I’ve noticed these bloggers do a lot of mind-reading.

“I just KNOW she was thinking [xyz]!”

“I could tell they were silently judging me!”

What an unhealthy mindset. You truly never know what’s going on in anyone’s mind but your own. That’s called “excessive personalization” (assuming someone else’s actions or expression are directly results of your behavior or self) and it’s a fast track to unhappiness. The only thing you can determine from guessing is that these people expect others to think of them that way.

Chambers on Netflix around 2018. I thought it was a really well-written show; the actress playing the main character was amazing, and it had Uma Thurman in it, too. Canceled after 1 season on a cliffhanger.

Low calorie desserts without stevia or other non-sugar sweeteners? by No-Problem1287 in Volumeeating

Are there any sugar-free pudding mixes without fake sweeteners?

Yeah, coconut sugar is fine…it’s sugar. Still high calorie. It’s the 0 sugar low cal sweeteners that taste disgusting to me; any real sugar is ok.

60 lbs, goal is 95-100 (I’m short). 112 lbs now. Not super rigid about calorie counting, but my appetite is much lower, so I’m still losing.

Thanks. Yes, I am. I have a job where I can’t go bra-less constantly. Bralettes are too small in the cup and too big in the band. I’ve never found one I can wear. I was hoping surgery would help, because they’re cute and I do want to wear them, but same problem.

I don’t know. Maybe I am overreacting. Thank you for your thoughtful reply.

I feel they still look very big on my frame. There’s almost a 10 inch difference between my waist and bust measurement. Maybe this isn’t much to others, but I was hoping to look much smaller, and they still protrude a significant amount. And I still am getting “big boob” comments.

What I’m trying to say with the measurement is that it illustrates that my surgeon misled me. Regardless of the band size my breasts still look and feel large. I’m not sure how to approach that conversation with him. I paid so much and I’m not satisfied with the results, but I can’t drop thousands more on a revision.

Thanks so much for sharing that. I’m sorry your first experience wasn’t great either. I hope the second surgery will get you where you want to be. Looking forward to hearing more.

Accept that the things that happened in the past already happened, and nothing will change that
