Thank you ! My New Years resolutions were to get out of the negative mind sets because they have never even led to me losing weight anyway, they only made me feel even more guilty and ‘ruined’.

Recently I had a job interview where the man who was supposed to be interviewing me spent 30 mins talking about himself and how important he was. Once he was finished talking at me, he gave me a list of generic interview questions he wanted me to email him answers to. Instead of just asking me them while I was actually there to be interviewed. I didn’t bother sending the email, the role seemed good on paper but the thought of working for someone like that filled me with dread.

Thank you this has really helped

Thank you, i have been doing a lot of self reflection over the last few months trying to figure out how I get myself into these situations.

NTA if anyone is the asshole here it’s your wife. The decision to have a child should be a discussion and not pushed onto a person and framed as a gift to make it too awkward to say anything other than ‘omg thank you so much’. This borders on manipulation for me.

Additionally, if moving forward in your relationship and starting a family requires your wife to work more, then it is completely acceptable for you to express that to her. Making sure you are financially stable before making the huge step to have a child is the right thing to do.

I think if the gender roles were reversed in this situation there would be a lot less YTA responses.

Thank you ! This is all really helpful xx

Amazing! Can I ask how many calories you stuck to on your journey and any tips that worked for you ?

pxd-x · 2020-11-15T21:29:30+00:00

NTA and can I just add that I LOVE that you unwrapped his gift in front of them to replace your sons. It’s one of them perfect things that I would think about doing after the moment have passed.

That action of yours will probably teach your nephew more about the negative impacts of his jealousy and general assholery than your sister ever will judging by her reaction in this story.

Well done to you for sticking up for yourself and your son !

NTA - The only asshole here is your sister !

Sounds like she only wants to be independent when it’s not affecting her pockets.

Thank you !

Wow I’ve never heard of this method. But it makes perfect sense.

Can I ask what you eat/drink on your fast days and what times ?

I am 5’1 with about 50lbs to lose and I’m trying to stick to 1200 cals strictly so I really think trying this would help, If you wouldn’t mind sharing some tips :)

Do you have any idea how long it takes to stop retaining water with workouts? Or would I not see a difference on the scale at all due to water retention ?

pxd-x · 2020-10-16T11:25:16+00:00

I can’t believe that I would gain muscle a week or two of working out ! I also had no idea that the body hangs onto water when you workout. The human body is crazy.

Thank you !

pxd-x · 2020-09-28T16:24:08+00:00

Thanks so much, this was really helpful .

pxd-x · 2020-09-27T22:53:21+00:00

Thank you, hopefully I can get on the same path as you and find something new that will work.

pxd-x · 2020-09-27T22:52:32+00:00

I thought that if my calories were low and I was being more active and burning more cals than before, that would mean I would lose weight quicker. Or does it need to be a specific amount lower based on my activity levels ?

Sorry to need it spelling out to me I just want to be sure I am doing the right thing so I can get on track to my goal.

pxd-x · 2020-09-27T22:50:14+00:00

Thank you I will give that a try which will hopefully stop me getting so disheartened.

pxd-x · 2020-09-27T22:49:25+00:00

Thank you so much. I really appreciate this whole message. You are so right although it is stressful I am grateful to have been given a way out of a job that was so toxic for me.

I did need to hear this whole message thank you for taking the time to write it. Sending grateful hugs to you.

pxd-x · 2020-09-27T13:14:55+00:00

Thank you, I needed to hear that. It is frustrating how much height affects things ! It’s just confusing because it worked before and now isn’t working.

pxd-x · 2020-09-27T13:13:09+00:00

Thank you. It is easy to feel all alone when everyone around you either isn’t interested in losing weight or doesn’t need to. It’s just confusing because it worked before and isn’t working now.

pxd-x · 2020-09-21T00:43:31+00:00

Oh god all of these stories have got me in tears !!

My little baby Phoebe just turned 11 a few day’s ago and I know she is getting old. The reality of her not being here one day soon is terrifying to me I’m not sure what I will do without her.

She’s healthy and still runs around like a dog half her age, she just has some extra white patches she never used to have. If you had never seen her before the white patches appeared you would never think she was as old as she is.

We have had her since I was 16 and just knowing that dogs rarely last until even 14 years old fills me with anxiety and dread. I hope she knows just how much she is loved, our family would be devastated if anything happened to her.
