| I'm angered by the way I'm treated after losing weight Posted: 03 Oct 2020 05:41 PM PDT I was overweight from about 13 years old until april through to august last year, when I lost a lot of weight, roughly 65 pounds (sw 216, cw 150), and have kept it off since. As a long-legged 5'9" girl who carries weight well, I look slim and strong. Now, am I glad I lost the weight? Yes, immensely. I'm finally healthy and I feel happy that I'm no longer on the path to being incredibly overweight. And yes, I am glad that I look "thin". But god almighty do people treat me differently. It's astounding. And it makes me so deeply angry. I went from being bullied through all of high school to the point my self-esteem was zero (called ugly and fat behind my back and to my face) to having those same people like and comment on my photos on social media. I went from being completely invisible to men as an adult to being hit on every time I go out, having multiple guys interested and getting a serious boyfriend. I went from being ignored, dismissed and treated slightly rudely by strangers in the supermarket, at the post office etc. to being greeted with a smile, engaged in conversation. People are MUCH nicer to me at work. I get compliments constantly, when before I never did. I have had people say they wish they had my body, my grandma is proud of me when before she'd criticise my weight. I just can't stand how shallow society is. I can't stand the thought of good, kind, smart and interesting people being lonely, being overlooked professionally and not being able to form relationships, romantic or platonic, because of their size. The way I was treated when I was overweight has scarred me deeply. I have massive body dysmorphia, I struggle to ignore attention because it was something I'd never received, even though I'm in a relationship. I will never fully recover, never fully be confident. It just seems so unfair. I guess all I, and anyone who is going through this can do, is to treat people equally and with respect regardless of what they look like, and NEVER dismiss someone or assume anything negative about them until we know them.

| Posted: 03 Oct 2020 08:16 AM PDT I was having a socially distanced, four person BBQ on the 4th of July this year and a friend talked to me about his weight loss journey. The next day I opened Instagram and my friend was sharing her accomplishment of losing nearly 80 lbs. That night I opened the Reddit app and was scrolling through this subreddit and I found myself inspired by a random story. The next day I started my sustainable diet and have been incorporating exercise into my life little by little. In three months, I've gone from 265 to 239 lbs and there is no stopping me. Sometimes we share our stories and have no idea who it will help - but trust me - they do help someone, somewhere, just like me. Thank you, friends. I really appreciate each of you sharing your wins, your victories, tips, tricks, and set backs! Xo [link] [comments] |
| NSV - I can wear my belt 4 holes tighter! Posted: 03 Oct 2020 01:36 PM PDT This morning I was up really early so I wasn't paying attention to much, I pulled on a pair of jeans I hadn't worn since January. These jeans were always tight on the ass and loose on the waist so I put on a belt, hopped in the car, and drove off to work. (I usually wear leggings to work so I've not noticed any change so far) After about 2 or 3 hours in work I needed to pee. I went into the bathroom and as I was undoing my belt I noticed the stress on the leather of the 1st hole, where I used to fasten it. The next thing I noticed was the stress on the 5th hole where I had it fastened all morning. I had gone down 4 belt holes! Now while this might not be a big accomplishment to some, I had gained a lot of weight over lockdown (to the point that my loose pyjamas I was wearing in March were starting to get tight in July) so the fact that I had lost all of my lockdown weight and then some since I started my journey at the beginning of August is so great to me! I was starting to see the number on the scale not fall as quickly as it did last month, but having a NSV like this has really encouraged me. Life is good right now. I can do this. Next stop, buying a smaller sized belt :) F22 sw277 cw 240 if that matters [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 03 Oct 2020 06:21 PM PDT I started taking my weight loss journey seriously in June. A part of my lifestyle change was cutting out alcohol, and that was the BEST decision I've ever made as I've been feeling great both mentally and physically since then. I went out for drinks and dinner with my best friend last night to celebrate me leaving my 6-year job. I had 5 drinks... and I can honestly say that I didn't feel good afterwards. My stomach hurt and I really didn't enjoy feeling inebriated. The extra calories were a bitch to log too 😂 today I'm feeling bloated and heavy. Just here to say that if you can cut out alcohol and find other ways to be social/to relax then I highly recommend it. That was my one outing and now I'm getting back on my shit! [link] [comments] |
| An active watch may be the best 150$ I ever spent in my life, even if it seems like “not your thing” Posted: 04 Oct 2020 12:48 AM PDT I recently lost around 35lbs following the birth of my second child. I cut out most of my sugar, I exercised frequently and often and I was generally really dedicated and motivated. Even so, as my social life became more active I refused to cut out dinners with friends and enjoying myself. Those last 10lbs were really fucking hard to lose, it was no joke! I didn't want to cut my calorie deficit anymore, since I felt like a happy healthy human, and I just cut my losses and said my weight was fine. It was! I was 5'8 and 135lbs, definitely healthy. My friends started buying this fit watch, and I would laugh at them tracking sleep/heart rate/steps. It became a fun joke for us all as they compared and competed around the dinner table. As a gift, my SO bought me a fit watch. It was sort of a joke gift. So I set myself a step goal (12,500) daily, how many flights of stairs to climb (15) and watched my sleep. And Ho. Ly. Shit. I am not obsessed with this thing but it is SO COOL. The last 10bs dropped off in 3 weeks. I didn't cut any more food (but I don't eat to excess, just until I'm full, properly full). I make sure to hit my 12.5m steps and now I've upped it to 15k. It means an extra walk with my children in the morning, or going out for a walk and calling a relative in another country, so why would I mind? Anyway, my point is that even though it may seem like overkill it's actually a very handy thing and could just help you out! [link] [comments] |
| Still 15 lbs down - I'll call it a win Posted: 03 Oct 2020 03:55 PM PDT Life has not been kind to my grand weight loss plans. After a great run in June-July where I lost 15 lbs, I was hit with wrecking ball of work-related stress and panic attacks. Out the window flew all my discipline. Exercise and healthy dinners turned into midnight Taco Bell drive-thrus and polishing off 6-packs. COVID fatigue and wildfire smoke (yay for living in the PNW) didn't help either. Yesterday I stepped onto my scale for the first time in a couple months, and to my surprise I'm still 15 lbs under my starting weight back in June! It's so easy to forget - as many posts on r/Loseit have pointed out recently - that maintaining weight is also worth celebrating. I'm going to celebrate by cooking myself something healthy tonight.

| Does anyone else feel guilty about figuring it out? Posted: 03 Oct 2020 10:39 AM PDT 19F, and after years of trying I finally found what works for me (CICO, stay active and walk, and be patient). Although I'm much happier that I'm finally losing weight in a physically and mentally safe way, I feel so guilty that I "figured it out" while so many others haven't. My parents are overweight and diabetic and they've never been able to lose the weight, and just seeing them suffer while I don't makes me miserable. What's worse, I imagine what it would be like to be in the shoes of someone who hasn't figured it out or possibly never will. It scares me that there was a chance I would end up like that, but I just somehow got lucky and found the right resources at the right time. Anyone else feel the same? [link] [comments] |
| Learned my lessons and finally doing it right Posted: 03 Oct 2020 06:09 AM PDT About 4 years ago I lost a significant amount of weight for the first time. I went hard; cut out all sugar, cut out all junk food and exercised nearly every day. The last point would have been fine but I was eating at most 1300 cals a day and not eating anything back that the exercise would have burned off. I was obsessed with the weighing scales and checked them religiously and fell into a horrific mood if I gained even the slightest bit. I was afraid to eat anything, even healthy food, in case I put the tiniest bit of weight back on. I lost 2 stone in less than 3 months and was skinnier than I had ever been. Not long later I had a nervous breakdown. I had always been prone to anxiety and depression and the mental turmoil I had inflicted on myself came to a head. The anxiety stopped me from eating and I lost another stone in less than 3 weeks. Cut to today, I'm on SSRIs and recently clocked in at potentially my heaviest: 82kg at 5'10. Not crazy big but I'm a woman with a slight frame and I was 100% overweight. I've decided that for my mental health, it suits me better to weigh in once a month. That doesn't work for everyone but my sanity needs it. I've been eating healthier this time. I've had a reasonable amount of takeaways. I've been exercising a reasonable amount. I've eaten chocolate every day. I weighed myself today for my September check in and I have lost six pounds in about six weeks. 1 pound a week is still maybe a little high for what I'm going for but I'm so relieved and so proud that I'm doing this the right way for me this time. Your physical health is important but in my opinion, your mental health should take priority every single time. Take care of yourself (all of it, not just your weight). [link] [comments] |
| Breaking ties between food and feelings Posted: 03 Oct 2020 11:12 AM PDT I often see instagram 'dieticians' announcing that it's ok to eat your feelings and you should allow yourself to let food make you feel better about yourself. I don't know if that's okay for anyone, but it certainly isn't for me. For me. it results in binges and forcing myself to eat when I don't want to, and having unhealthy coping mechanisms and generally being unhappy. My emotional tie to food is probably from when my parents got divorced when I was 11. My dad was very orthorexic and never allowed junk food in the house or would let us eat anything he deemed unhealthy. After the split, my mom started to feed us normally and served us a variety of food, healthy, whole, and some treats because why not? The treats were mostly a few chocolate chips, a small bowl of ice cream, or some little cookie or whatever she brought home from the restaurant where she often bought dinner on her way home from work. Nothing excessive,but it was SOMETHING after never being offered these things. So, when I would come home from my dads house after visitation, I would feel stressed from the drive and the time spent with him, sad because the transition back to my moms house reminded me that they were divorced, and tired because it was in the evening. So I felt these emotions, and then had access to sweets I hadn't had in days. I felt a rush to eat the new treat because who knew when my next one would be? I accidentally associated feeling these emotions and gobbling down sugar, and carried that with me throughout my teenage years. After this was brought to my attention while working with my awesome therapist (love you Renee!!) I am actively working as hard as I can to disassociate the connection, and work to feel hunger and fullness, want and dislike, not force myself to finish plates, have healthy coping mechanisms and not feel obligated to eat, simply because food is there. I don't really have a point, just wanted to talk. Thanks for listening, it means a lot!! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 03 Oct 2020 02:25 PM PDT 37m used to workout years ago but have let myself be lazy, eat terrible, and drinking a lot. In August I told my family for Halloween I wanted to go as Thor, which brought fits of laughter. September 1st, after reading Jeff Nipards body recomp book and figuring out my macros, I started a diet of 8 oz chicken and 4 hard boiled eggs for breakfast, 12 oz chicken cup of brown rice and cup of veggies for lunch and dinner. 2 protein shakes, once after workout and once before bed. After the first week I had minimum change and felt like I was eating way too much food. Week 2 I switched to 2 hard boiled eggs, 4 oz chicken for breakfast, 8 oz chicken for lunch and dinner. Twice a week i added a half cup of rice. Weighed in on October 1st and went from 235 to 215. Its insane how much my body has changed and it fuels me to go harder at the gym. Cant wait until Halloween this year. [link] [comments] |
| I Lost 50 Pounds & Gained It All Back.. Posted: 04 Oct 2020 01:07 AM PDT I'm not sure if this is an appropriate sub, but I would like to post this to raise awareness and putting emphasis on losing weight in a sustainable manner. I'm a 5'11" 20 year old male. My SW was 330 pounds. I lost weight effectively at first; ate my carbs early in the day, avoided sugars after noon and worked out consistently, sometimes twice a day. My lowest weight was prior to quarantine, before moving out of my college dorm for spring break. I weighted in at 280 pounds, a weight that I felt like I held quite well and something I hoped to capitalize on in pursuing acting. I soon started taking shorts: relying on Alli weight loss pills and losing discipline. Although it wasn't a major detriment at the time, it would shape my habits in quarantine. Workouts became inconsistent, eating became more frequent, and before I knew it, here I am in October with 43 pounds regained with a CW at 323 pounds. I'm not entirely sure why I'm sharing this; maybe for accountability or hoping that I'll be looking at this post with a sense of pride 6 months from now, but please take heed. Lose weight slowly. Instant gratification is nothing compared to long term success. Try not to follow fads, and eat Whole Foods. Sometimes, I wonder why I was born at such a metabolic disadvantage, but then I realize that there is nothing I can do besides buckle down and take control of my future. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 03 Oct 2020 04:24 PM PDT Me: 28F, 165cm, SW 82kg, CW 72kg, GW 65kg 5 days ago I posted about how running helped me with my weight loss journey and how I was finally able to run 20 minutes straight, and what benefits I got from running. Today, I was able to run a 5K in 40 minutes, guys! Prior to less than 3 months ago, I wasn't even able to run a minute straight. Yay! I used the ZR5K app for my training, which is a zombie-infused, sort of audiobook-C25K training app! I really recommend this if you thin run-walk cues are a bit boring. [link] [comments] |
| How do I stop being so extreme? Posted: 04 Oct 2020 12:24 AM PDT I had a period of time when I was a teen where I obsessively lost weight, it was like I had something to prove to myself. I was also curious to see how low I could go, it was so odd. I am now the heaviest I've ever been at 191lbs 5'7" due to antidepressants. I recently got serious about getting my weight back down to 160 or at least 170. It started out fine, but as soon as I saw the weight drop a little I slowly found myself wrapped up in the desire to eat very little in the day to speed up the process and watch the numbers get lower. Today I caught myself doing something I forgot I used to do. I was hungry as I had only an apple and it was 10pm, I ignored the hunger, the pain of it actually made me feel as though I was getting thinner. I used to ignore the hunger pains until I just stopped being hungry. Its 2am now and I made myself eat a turkey and cheese sandwich with fresh fruit and I was surprised when I started crying while eating. Why cant I just diet in a healthy way? Why do I always need to be so extreme? Should I see someone about this? It worries me very much thinking that I could become obsessed like I did before but this time no one is around to tell me when I start to go much too far. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 04 Oct 2020 01:37 AM PDT I genuinely don't know how I've done it. But I've done it. Ok so some back story, prior my holiday I was 138 pounds, lean visible 6 pack abs and muscle defintion. I usually track calories everyday to maintain my weight. I decided that during my holiday I wasn't gonna and was just gonna eat whatever. I expected some weight gain, now don't get me wrong, I admit I did eat a lot. But I gained 29.5 pounds?! Which astounds me and I have gotten noticeably bigger and lost my abs and muscle defintion. I honestly feel terrible but at the time I didn't care. I just copped a massive punch to the face. Today had been a shit day :( [link] [comments] |
| How weight and mental stability affect your dating life - a rant/vent Posted: 03 Oct 2020 10:04 PM PDT I've been thinking about this for quite a while and I just need to get it out of my head so that hopefully someone that needs to read it finds it. No one gets fat by being mentally stable. Whether it's an eating disorder, anxiety, lack of sleep, a sedentary lifestyle, emotional eating and so on. Then comes this cycle of emotional fragility mixed with weight gain insecurities about your self worth, attractiveness and overall wallowing in your sorrows keeping this unhealthy coping cycle alive. One thing that motivates some people to lose weight - and I know that's the main thing that motivated my best friend to beat obesity (he succeeded) - is to make his dating life easier. He felt like shit, his self loathing was and still is insanely high and guess what? Even now, before and after he's still completely unable to get a date. The weightloss surely helped him being more attractive on a surface level, but he's so mentally unstable that the only people willing to date him are complete manipulative assholes wanting to get something out of him. They just want a faithful toy that's not gonna run away because they believe that they are the best he can get, and will make him feel that way. And that same kind of emotional manipulation happened to me too before I even started losing weight. Not gonna lie, it was A LOT easier for me to date when I was chubbier than now that I lost 35lbs. Back then, I was so insecure about myself it showed, it attracted the wrong kind of people. So many toxic people that I found so attractive told me the exact things I wanted to hear: that they could get so much better, but they stuck with me because that's what they liked. Looking back, knowing how everything later unfolded, I was totally falling for their manipulative schemes. But I built myself back up, cultivated the friendships in my life instead, started lifting and then actually focused on fixing my deeper issues. Right now, the mental journey isn't over yet, but I present myself well, I make aesthetic decisions and I get a lot of compliments and attention that I wasn't used to receive before. However, on the dating aspect, it's pretty damn tough. I'm pretty sure my looks aren't the problem, my mental health has improved significantly even if it has lots to go still. But I can't seem to meet decent people. Maybe it's because I've gotten better at detecting scummy red flags, maybe I have a problem with how I form bonds with people Or maybe, just maybe, my newfound confidence is now repelling the trash instead of attracting it.

| This week has not been good, but I'm trying. Posted: 04 Oct 2020 02:27 AM PDT Last week marked one month since I started exercising, it also marked the first day this year that my Seasonal depression started to act up. I've only exercercised around 3 days this week and my eating has been pretty bad. It's an absolute struggle to get out of bed somedays when depression acts up, let alone actually manage to do anything... But I'm still trying I've decided that I'm not going to leave the past couple of days bother me and forget about them. Starting today I plan on adding yoga to my regular exercise routine, doing Yoga in the morning then going for a walk about an hour or so later, starting tomorrow I'm going to force myself to come out of this depressive state by getting out in nature and doing Hikes everyday until I pull myself out of this temporary hell. My first month of exercising went well, I lost 6 inches around my chest and 2 and a half around my waist, that was only by walking. This month, starting today I'm going to start counting my calories and aim for a caloric deficit each day! I just also want to say I love this subreddit, although I may not post often the posts on here reminds me what I am fighting for! [link] [comments] |
| Please help!! I’m so unhappy being fat but I hate dieting Posted: 03 Oct 2020 04:49 PM PDT I am a 5'8" 190 lbs female. I want to lose weight because I have no self esteem and a terrible body image. I don't know what to do because I'm obsessed with food. I should mention that I have a history of eating disorders. I was a normal 130 lbs in high school, became anorexic in college and dropped to 90 lbs, then when I was recovering from anorexia about two years ago I couldn't stop binging and got up to 220 lbs. This January I made a resolution to lose weight (I want to get back to 130 lbs) and I got down to 190 by the end of February. Now I have just been losing and gaining the same 10 lbs for 8 months! It's so upsetting because I could be at my goal weight right now but I just keep dieting and binging. I've tried everything - intermittent fasting, taking it really slow (ie not crash dieting), going low carb, etc. Some days I want to kill myself. I can't afford therapy now either because I am back in school and living with my parents and have no income to pay for it. I have no friends because I am too self conscious to go anywhere in public (besides school) and I can't stand the thought of my high school and college friends seeing me so fat when they only knew me as normal/skinny, so I haven't seen them in years. I am so lonely and food is my only comfort and the only thing that makes me happy! I hate dieting but I hate being fat too. I'm so desperate! PLEASE HELP!!! [link] [comments] |
| 30 Day Accountability Challenge - Day 3 Posted: 03 Oct 2020 06:47 PM PDT Hello losers, It's been a weird day 3 over yonder. I hope yours was fabulous! Weight by end of month (199 lbs, preferably trend weight): 209 this morning. More where I expected to be. Stay within calorie range (1700 weekdays to practice eventual maintenance, maintenance weekends, NO FAST FOOD): Under maintenance for the weekend doing good. Much hungry today. Exercise 5 days a week: Rest day. 1/3 days. Self-care journaling (once a week, 60 minutes): Planning to after dinner. Self-care time (work on not using food as a reward): About to do meal prep so I can throw it in the crock pot at the God awful time I get up tomorrow. Yay work. Try a new recipe once a week: Not sure what I've got cropped up this week yet. I may make a veggie concoction for my SO or a mix up on some cowboy caviar. Be more mindful, present in my body & express gratitude to avoid the hedonic treadmill: Today I'm grateful to be able to help people I care about cope & move forward with life in this weird world. Your turn kids! How's you? [link] [comments] |
| Constipation after dramatic change in diet (dirty eating to clean eating)? Posted: 04 Oct 2020 02:14 AM PDT I eat like a slob (junk food, huge portions) and generally have the runs frequently from time to time. Now, I've switched to an extremely low carb diet consisting of 1 cup of carbs only per day (rice) plus heavy portions of kale, spinach, bell peppers, and chicken breast. My caloric intake has probably been cut to a 3rd/4th of what it was (aiming for ~1200 cal/day) My weight is dropping like a rock (probably water weight), and over the past 2 weeks since the diet...I've noticed I've only gone on the toilet maybe 2 times total. Much less than what I'm used to. Is this normal or am I messing up something? Should I add bananas or something fiber rich to my diet? Is my body just adjusting to the radically different diet?

| Posted: 03 Oct 2020 06:41 PM PDT Currently at 300lbs. For years i have eaten complete garbage. Binging, eating entire boxes of pizza, chips, soda, etc. But all it took for me to snap out of it was experiencing chest pain. I'm fine right now, but it gave me a mighty good scare. I'm scheduling a doctor's visit monday. But i started today. I excercised for about 20 minutes, worked up a good sweat. I skipped breakfast and had some grilled chicken at around 2 pm and again at 8. I am being mindful of my portions and drinking plenty of water. I have to turn my life around. I have some pretty severe anxiety and i am a hypochondriac so this is really taking it's toll on me, mentally and emotionally. But i want to push through. I might be having anxiety but my mindset is going nowhere. All the motivation i need is in the pain and discomfort i felt and the anxiety. There is no doubt in my mind that i will go through with this. I just felt i had to get that off my chest. Thanks for reading...and if you guys have any advice for me on dieting i would appreciate it greatly. Just know that my budget is limited and all i can really afford to do is avoid crappy sugary or sodium latent foods, soda, etc. I can probably eat chicken every single day. [link] [comments] |
| I don’t have any weights at home. What can I do? Posted: 03 Oct 2020 07:01 PM PDT Hey guys 29/M/sw:372/cw:310 here. I've started watching my calories and being mindful of what I eat since quarantine started in March. I'm down from 372 to 310 currently. I did this by simply following CICO. I recently bought an indoor bike to start doing some cardio for mental health reasons, and to continue losing weight. I wanted to also start a weight lifting/muscle retention routine so I can start fixing my body compisituon/ minimize loose skin/ look better. The reasoning is bc I always read that resistance training is important for weight loss. Problem is, that the gyms are closed and all the weights in my area have been sold out since March. Well some gyms are open but I'm not comfortable with the risk, and work from home, do don't need to go out. What can I do? I have resistance bands at home, can those help? Thanks for all your help.

| note to myself (and maybe to other redditors too) Posted: 03 Oct 2020 09:08 PM PDT last year I dropped ten pounds in three months over the summer with ZERO effort or intention to do so. I was getting almost 10k steps daily because of my work commute, but i had no other forms of exercise. my job was as sedentary as it gets. i did not track calories. but what was different was my mindset. I was incredibly busy because of work. and with that i STOPPED CATEGORIZING FOODS INTO "good" OR "bad". THIS is what made me lose weight without trying. last summer, i was way too broke/busy to be picky about what i ate. i had two slices of pizza for lunch, cool. i had ramen for dinner, cool. i was so busy that i stopped thinking eating such "bad" foods was the end of the world because at least i got to eat something at all. i stopped eating after i finished my meal. i very rarely binge ate/ snacked. i notice now that i'm less busy, i have more time to think about my food choices and obsess over what's "good" or "bad". and i find myself falling into bad habits. i'm trying to eat squeaky clean all the time and constantly think about and plan when the next time i can ~allow myself~ to eat "bad" foods. and then during these times in which i ~can~ eat bad foods, i just binge way way way over my caloric maintenance. this would NOT be a problem if i STOPPED CATEGORIZING FOODS INTO "good" OR "bad". in fact, thinking in such a way could even be considered privileged. when i was busy as fuck last summer, i couldn't afford the time to be picky. but others don't have the MONEY to be picky. i start spiraling down into this toxic mindset when i'm stressed/sad about life and not busy enough to distract myself. so i'm working on making sure i get rid of it entirely. food is just food. it's neutral. it's not some unstoppable force, some enemy that i have to strategically fight. this is a note to myself but also i hope this helps someone :) [link] [comments] |

| Not much but I started to use my clothing rack (exercise bike) Posted: 03 Oct 2020 03:28 AM PDT Bought it in Jan with the intention of using it, did about 4 week's worth and gave up. Lockdowns been a breeze as I WFH but been drinking at least one can of coke a day and eating frozen pizzas for lunch and have put on weight. Currently at 200lbs, so got on the bike this week and done 2* 30 min sessions in the week and yesterday I used a video on YouTube and did 1.5 hrs and a total of 13miles yesterday! (Video was a pov bike ride in Italy) Started the Hadrian's Wall Virtual challenge in June but again got v lazy and stopped (challenge is to do 90 miles, I'm doing it on my exc bike) I ache today but it felt good to do something other than play video games. I know it's not much but I'm very lazy so posting this for some accountability. [link] [comments] |
