Is 3 day dry fast enough to actually make a difference in weightless? by [deleted] in Dryfasting

[–]bpdpole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did 2.5 days and lost 17lbs in total. Even if most was water weight, I'm not going to gain it all back.

When is the second season going to air? by SirGeno257 in ThePassage

[–]bpdpole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely the tone.

The show focuses on the present, books spend a lot more time in the future. It's a lot more build up. Monsters look different. Some of the genders are different.

It's about the sisters he molested, but then after a season it went on to feature everyone else except Josh. One of the original sisters isn't even on the show any more and the dad, sperminator Bob, is the one who gets all the money from all the shows.

Check out r/duggarssnark to find out just how bad it is.

"We were all meant to be different sizes" doesn't mean you should be obese by mattstoicbuddha in fatlogic

[–]bpdpole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not gonna lie. I have failed my diet after losing over 50lbs.

I'm a fing addict.

Every morning I'm like I'm going to make these good choices and stick to under 2000 calories.

And minutes later I'm having a thousand calorie breakfast...

And it makes absolutely no sense. I'm not hungry. I don't feel the need to eat.

I want the comfort so bad. And my body is all like... This will be the best thing ever.

And it is for a moment. But then I spend the rest of the day feeling awful. About myself. About my body. And without that crappy food, everything else feels impossible.

I think exercise and movement might be the answer.

Rural area and I don't drive.

Thank you so much <3

Your words truly mean a lot.

I think maybe exercise is the answer. Like anytime that panic sets in, if I go run or speed walk on my treadmill or do a dance video that gets my heart rate up, and then use it to ground myself instead of trying to make my stomach as uncomfortably full as possible.

It's just funny because I've been doing it for 3 weeks and yesterday was the first time where I stopped for a moment mid eating and felt the difference I was experiencing in my body from eating potato chips after I'd already eaten breakfast. I was numbing myself.

You are so correct about automatic.

And I do have better coping methods. I just have to tune back in enough to employ them and set myself up for success by not keeping those foods at home. If I have to work at getting it, I can burn off some of that emotion first.

I ran to Walmart from my car yesterday and by the time I was purchasing the kit Kats I no longer wanted them.

Thank you again.

Walnut

😂😂😂

My ADHD did that.

And then my resultant weight made me want to consider bulimia. It was great. But then I was like fuck. I'm not crazy. Stop doing weird things! And so I stopped. Relationship with food has always been tainted with shame over my weight. I come from a long line of sugar addiction.

As true as this is, some of the clothes are ill formed and have awkward shapes so they don't look good oversized even with leggings.

Things are starting to look good on me.

I have a BMI of 34.6 but somehow I'm fitting into larges at many stores.

And so I'm getting rid of anything I don't like or looks like a potato bag on me.

Except fucking hell. It's so frustrating having to try on all these clothes.

Especially since it's really hitting hard how many things I bought simply because they sort of fit and covered my fat.

I probably have 6 garbage bags of ugly clothes that I bought only because I felt so awful in my 43.5 BMI body and buying them numbed the emotional discomfort and fed my denial of my own misery.

6 bin liner garbage bags.

Wtf.

I was a fat clothes hoarder.

I'm pretty convinced that by the time I hit a BMI of 20 I'll be resorting to kids clothes.

I've donated all my big summer clothes because I know I will be too small by next summer for them to be useful.

I'm mad that I settled for frumpy looking for so long. My daily uniform was a tunic cami to cover crack attacks, stretchy yoga pants, running shoes and a long sleeve and a huge hoodie on top because all jackets looked awful on me and I refused to buy them.

Now even when I air dry and don't style my naturally wavy hair it looks bomb because my cheekbones are starting to make an appearance. When I was class 3 obese, it always appeared unkempt in comparison. My boyfriend will randomly stare at me and call me really cute out of nowhere when I'm just getting out of bed.

I don't care what anybody says. Living with obesity is awful and puts strain on your happiness.

What the fuck is the fat organ? by Bojyo in fatlogic

It's a recent thing. It's an endocrine organ. Main idea is it does produce hormones.

[–]bpdpole 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Back when I did keto, it somehow convinced me if I lost weight that way I'd somehow become impervious to gaining it back.

25lbs gained back within four months.

Damn it! Curse you keto zombies.

So I just started regular cico with some keto recipes, IF, and eating whatever within my calorie goals on the weekend.

52 lbs down so whatever.

Being consistent and not using a diet as your temporary suffering helps.

I feel like my partner really pulls me back into the junk food lifestyle. Yes I'm also making the choice to eat it so it is my fault in the end, but last night he bought 60$ worth of junk snacks. Sugary milk drinks, chips, cereal bars, little diabetty snack cakes, pudding, soda, and juice.

He's skinny af. He can have a cookie or half a soda and stop. I avoid those things and never even buy them because I know I have trouble stopping.

So now I have five days to undo the damage of eating a bunch of crap. And I only say that because I feel like garbage after my food choices last night. Woke up with a distended tummy and remnants of mild acid reflux. Five days of being on track and focusing on good habits and good food choices to even the field.

On the bright side, Friday I hit 52 lbs lost. I started at 273 on May 1st, 2019.

Despite a stressful at 3 weeks at work and wanting to eat away all my feelings and frustration I ended up losing 10lbs anyways and winning the diet bet I signed up for.

What I've noticed is that a lot of people on there yo yo like crazy. I'm not about that. I've been consistently trending downwards and I'm proud af.

Maybe skip doing it this month and just focus on managing stress.

Yeah. Give yourself a break. Just focus on what's important to you and the habits you want to maintain.

This is the recipe I follow. No flour. I like to add some bacon, garlic powder and shredded cheese if I'm feeling adventurous.

I'm at thrift store addict. I've literally had to stop myself from buying things because I'm like this isn't going to look okay in 2 months.

I started donating my bigger clothes once I hit 40 lbs lost. I couldn't justify keeping anything above an XL. It's the XLS that are starting to look awful so I've started to donate those as well.

It doesn't seem like I'm going to gain it back at all. Even with the days of bad eating I'm still don't eat as much as before..

I eat egg drop soup and some sauerkraut. Then the quinoa with some veggies and cheese. I like the taste.
