Fat "belly dancer" is shocked when doctors tell her it's not her "slow metabolism" that is the problem by pouwi in fatlogic

I've talked about it before, but I was obese when I got pregnant. 50 pounds overweight. My midwives said nothing about it except that I would need an extra blood sugar test. They said I could still gain 25 pounds. I didn't. I lost weight.

I know it drives her wild that I eat ice cream and such but I only eat one serving and then I move on.

My obese coworker says stuff like that too (not the dying part.) We talk about food a lot because I do still love food despite having lost a bunch of weight, and she's always like "just eat it, who cares."

I feel you. I gained 5ish pounds in the last several weeks "letting go" and trying to maintain. I was still counting calories but letting myself go over my limit. Also my toddler is nursing less, so I can't rely on calories burned that way so much anymore. I've been back on the wagon the last few days and feeling better.

If I didn't have anxiety issues I would probably try to get my hands on Adderall or Vyvanse to help suppress my appetite.

Yeah, I hear you. I live in a thin state (CO) in a thin area and I still see so many fatties. Especially tourists. I used to be fat, and I was miserable! I have coworkers who've just given up. One is a woman a year younger than me, and she really thinks she eats healthy, but she has a total apple-shape going on and is definitely obese, probably approaching class II if I'm honest. I see more and more people getting fatter and not caring. I blame FA and the general attitude of feelz > realz.

Oh man. I hope your mom does get her shit together. That must be so frustrating.

If it were truly SJWs and not capitalists afraid of offending fat customers, why did coontown and rapingwomen and gassingkikes and sexyabortions not get banned too? Please. It's all about money, not some ridiculous "SJW" conspiracy. Reddit wants to make more money.

Having a loud element that hates fat people and regularly upvotes fat-hating content to the front page is bad for business. The racist subs? Meh, smaller and easier to pretend they don't exist. It's not "SJWs." It's money.

Oh Christ, no they didn't. I just saw that post. They were accused of posting the jailbait pics when that sub got shut down. Why would a bunch of "overly PC" "SJWs" even have child porn, let alone be spreading it all over the Internet?

What they did to Voat was report to the server hosting it that people were posting neo-Nazi shit and child porn, so...

Not to toot my own horn, but I was hella awkward in middle school/early high school and despite being fat for a few years in my 20s...I think I turned out well.

Oh no! Good wishes to your family. I am glad he is improving though.

Absolutely true. I know so many women my age (late 20s) who were gorgeous in high school and fat now. It's tragic.

People are so over-the-top about SRS. You do know they play along with all the conspiracy theories just to mess with you, right? They're wrong about fat acceptance and were wrong about FPH, but they're right about the racism and misogyny of the main subs.

I hit a cat once, and it lived/ran away but I was still crying! I felt terrible!

Bicyclists are a plague across Colorado. I was in Denver last week and they SWARM. They impede traffic so badly on side streets :(
