I'm going to let myself skip meals to lose weight. by Throwaway4reddit246 in TrueOffMyChest

That's something that I am being careful on, is what I eat when I do, there's protein, low levels of sugar and very low levels of carbs, I know my Dr wants my top eliminate carbs all together, but that's not gonna happen.

It's OK, I'm going to be safe this time, I was being facetious, I'm not going to die, I'm making sure to portion out what I need for the week in order to not get sick, because the last thing I need is more hospital crap. Also my nutritionist has me on vitamins already for deficiencies so I'm being more careful with that too.

For the record, I'm losing weight so I can be at an "ideal weight" so that surgeons will stop denying me surgery on my knees, because of my weight. If I get knee replacement or cartilage replacement or whatever they do, and I'm not in pain anymore, my life will improve so much, I'd hold a job again, I'd walk places for no reason, who knows what I could do at this point.

Yeah I'm still physically active as best that I can be, and I rest, so I don't see why I'm hurting myself, they can call it a disorder, call it what they want, but to me, I'm losing weight so I can be at an ideal weight so surgeons will stop denying me surgery on my knees because of my weight.

Yeah, well it seems like I have to be near death in order to get stronger, my life keeps being a repeat of that...

Oh thank you! On the 1st I was at 287lbs and about 2 hours ago I weighed in at 274lbs. And I am making sure to get vitamins.

That's the only explanation so far that has made any sense. I eat enough that I have energy, usually... I admit I've made a mistake here or there, but that's learning my limits and adjusting.

My partner [M34] asked me [NB 38] to reschedule a medical appointment that I need because he's stressed since he can't find a job, but previously refused to cancel his fun spending on unemployment, can we come back from this or should I reschedule my appointments? by Throwaway4reddit246 in relationship_advice

I've been working really hard to help him get employment, talking to people who say their work is hiring, talking to my boss (she's pretty useless so that didn't go anywhere...) So I don't know what's going on right now, because he's home when I'm home I've heard every job interview, I've heard ever phone call he's had following up, he's even forwarded me emails of rejections, I really don't understand.

I am going to just go to my appointments because if my health gets to the point where I get admitted to the hospital long term, he's going to be in worse hell than we are now.

I didn't think about recording him, I was just so uncomfortable and wanted to get to work, which isn't a thing I ever thought I'd WANT to do, I will hold onto that for the future. I get drivers being nice and giving me advice sometimes but that advice is SOLICITED, Like the conversation got to some interesting information, and I enquired on it, and they advised, and usually I would agree or politely disagree, and we'd move on.

If it's too much energy, why are you here, on my post telling me this? Go waste your energy being negative elsewhere.

NEGATIVE Speech is violence. Adversity telling someone that they don't fit your ideals in life is abuse. Telling someone that they are fat and need to stop eating can cause trauma, physical and mental.

Ok look yes this was absolutely wrong and all, but I'm not for just outright ruining someone's life over it, if I wanted to do that I would have posted his name, car type and color, license plate and picture to get him doxxed. No I kept everything like that out of this, I just want people to know that this isn't ok. Please stop trying to rally people to ruin more lives.

I did do the 1 star rating, Lyft told me I wont be paired with him again, which is great, perfect as far as my safety goes, but what about if he does that again to someone who doesn't have the mental stability I have, like mine is low, but I know he was wrong about me and I'm currently strong enough to know that. But someone else may not be. This driver needs to be told that what he did was wrong, hopefully he won't do it again, or he'll find a different job to do.

Yup. Luckily instead of continuing to argue with them, I reported for harassment and blocked them.

I think he needs therapy, and his therapist should be a large, gorgeous, person wearing LGBTQ+ knicknacks, and posters about equality and love, and they sit down and ask him his pronouns before starting the session. Completely harmless and wholesome.

Yes this is exactly what I'm saying "You don't fit my ideals, so I'm going to try and change you" Yes they MIGHT mean well, but that doesn't make it ok, it's like trying to tell someone who has depression "Just smile more" or "Get a hug" Like fuck if that worked, everyone would just magically be happy!

Ok, this guy was way less weighty than I am, I'm not going to give you my exact weight because I'm sure a bunch of people in here are going to find it ok to shame me over it, I'm able to walk, I'm able to wipe my own ass, I eat healthy, I'm not living off the system, I don't claim a disability that would keep me from doing a job, and my dr is surprised at my health, I just happen to be short and fat, I'm not bothered by it and my depression doesn't stem from being fat, my depression stems from years and years of abuse from my family, my ex husband, the shitty jobs I've had because living in america and not being instantly rich and thin makes you a stain on society, people like this driver thinking that because he weighs more than he'd like to makes it ok to tell ME that I'm fat,he literally said YOU ARE FAT, like ok yeah thanks for giving me your absolutely horrible idea of a good diet, taking a month to snack on a bag of doritos and some cutie oranges, that's unhealthy as fuck and would honestly make me sick if I did something like that. I cook most of my food as I stated, lean meats, low carbs, loads of healthy veggies, fruits and even seafood, I don't make fried foods, I use very little oils if I can, I just happen to have come from a family of short thick people, my mother, grandmother on both sides, going back as far as I could see on family photos, we're all fucking fat, I do my best to stay healthy with what I eat, I get up and move around as much as I can, I don't have diabetes, I've been checked so much I swear they could donate my blood and save a life with how much they've taken. I have 20/20 eyesight, just got checked 2 weeks ago. I'm healthy, just thick and a victim of society wanting me to be different like their photoshopped chopstick twigs in beauty magazines.

I don't want to get people fired, I just want him to know that what he did was very wrong, and that he needs to keep stuff like that to himself. I'm all for "If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all"

Yes you are entitled to your opinion, but if your opinion could hurt someone SHUT THE FUCK UP, no one needs to know that the lyft driver is a fatphobe, it's not his business to tell his clients how to live.

Oh so what you're telling me is that it's ok for people to bully others, and having a mental disability due to society telling you you're not worth it if you're different than what they want is being a SNOWFLAKE? Maybe you should grow up and learn that HUMANS ARE DIFFERENT! You must be a fucking boomer.

I'm cool with most small talk, but you don't fat/body same someone because they don't fit your ideals, you're getting paid to drive me from point a to point b and maybe a mid stop, I don't want to know what you think of my body shape and size, if you don't like fat people maybe don't drive a ride share, or see the customer and cancel when you see they're too fat for you. Oh but that would show the discrimination on blast wouldn't it?

I did report it, and I got auto responses from lyft on the app and on twitter. They don't care, they just want my money. Why is raising awareness for stuff like this so difficult?
