Am tired of being fat, yes I said it fat


Posted: Dec 11, 2014

I do not need any information about walking, exercising, know that but have some health issues that prevent a lot of that. Now let's get to the fat issue. I wish I could live off of water alone for about a month, that ought to about do it but I probably would have such a headache from lack of any solid food. I am also acknowleding the fact that a fast weight loss also means a possible fast gain back. I got all this but what I would like to know, does anyone have a really low caloric list for some quick weight loss so I don't feel like a stuffed sausage anymore? I think once I lose a few pounds might make it easier for me to go with a reasonable diet, rather than a quick fast weight loss. Thanks.;

I lost 70 lbs last year by only drinking only water and skim milk and eating only fruit for snacks. I kept the rest of my diet the same (3 meals, 2 snacks) and did not exercise. :)

How long did you do this, or is this a permanent change for you? What did you give up? What did you drink b4 only water and skim milk? Could soy milk substitute for skim milk? "3 meals, 2 snacks" What do these consist of generally?

Thanks for the info.

I did weight watchers online this year and lost - wannie

65 pounds. I dropped the online program in June and kept losing for a while. When I quit watching what I was eating and starting eating anything and everything (when my mother came home from a nursing home/hospital stay and I had to start cooking more) I have gained about 10 back because of my own lack of self control. I'm trying to get back in the swing of things. Weight watchers really does work.

My sister-in-law did lose 40 pounds with WW also. Can you give us some idea of what they teach you? I am financially in no position to do it online or in person - but do they have some kind of chart or something you can follow to track your "points" or something they use, don't they?

I belong to a Facebook group called Overeaters Anonymous. They're not affiliated with the nationally known group of the same name, but they're very similar. I've lost about 20 pounds so far just by watching what I eat and talking to people in similar situations. Best of all - it's free!

How does Weight Watchers work for those who don't eat some traditional foods such as meat/fish and limited dairy?

You could consider reading Eat to Live by Dr. Joel Fuhrman - anon

I would consider his 6 week plan as a start. After 6 weeks you could re-evaluate to determine where you want to go from there. One thing he notes with his program is he often treats patients who have health problems that make exercise extremely difficult. Basically, though, fresh fruits and vegetables without stuff added will give you the nutrients you need, some cooked, some raw. Good luck to you.

Phentermine. That'll slash your calories in half real quick. - Wont eat nothing at all.

TOPS - Take Off Pounds Sensibly - Mary

I joined the TOPS program this year and have lost 25 pounds since April 1st, slowly but surely. It is extremely inexpensive $32 a year and 50 cents a week. It is fun, wonderful, not for profit, and I absolutely love it. Look for their main website online and then find a chapter in your hometown. If anyone has any questions, feel free to email me, and I'll be glad to help you.

Lost 40 lbs in 1 year - By following these simple rules

[ In Reply To ..]
And have kept it off now for 12 years. Went from size 14 to size 4/6. I never went hungry eating whole grain pasta, brown rice, whole grain bread, nuts and nut butters, beans, fresh fruits and veg, tofu, and olive oil exclusively. No sugar, no dairy, no meat. Was it hard to make these changes? You bet. Was it worth it? Oh, yes!!!!

I'm late to the gun debate on the boards, because I needed time to calm down after Friday's tragedy.  I didn't want to come here all emotional and start swiping at people and coming up with totally unrealistic expectations of our country regarding gun control.  But the more I thought about it, the more I realized how completely saturated we are with guns.

The hatred on this board toward anyone who is a conservative has been absolutely rampant and so unnecessary.  It has become so bad here, the only way to describe it is a disease.  People have become totally obsessed with hating conservatives.  There are accusations of violence, yet no proof.  No videos, no voice clips, not even an iphone video or picture…nothing.  All you have is someone telling you things were said and done by conservatives, yet nobody can collab ...

I'm So Tired Of The Tax Debate!May 14, 2010
Tax the rich more....tax the poor less, etc.  It is my opinion that if you tax the rich more, it won't help that much considering there are so many loopholes in the tax code that I'm sure the rich will find a way to get out of paying more taxes.  Why don't we just do a flat tax.  That will eliminate the loopholes.  Simple and easy...probably why they won't do it though.  They need something confusing so the crooks in the world can get out of paying ta ...

I am having a day like that today.  I haven't felt like this in a long time.  It used to happen more frequently, a few times a year.  When my kids were younger I would lay in bed and think my kids would come home from school with me lying in bed and unable to get up.  But eventually I would be able to rouse from my fatigue and walk to the kitchen and get a cold beverage.  I think for me it is hormonal ...

Hair Dye What To Buy Tired Of ColorsilkDec 03, 2009
I have long hair that usually takes about 3 boxes of dye.  I usually only do it about 2-3 times a year and do the all over color each time because my color tends to fade.  I think hair dye might be one of those things that you get what you pay for.  I usually buy the Colorsilk ($2-$3 at Walmart) because it is cheaper and I am usually broke.  This year I think I will splurge a little and buy a more expensive brand.  In the past I have tried the Herbal ess. and Natrual Ins ...

It's like an echo. Every single person who speaks or gave a speech, and every government mayor, governor, government worker who speaks or gave a speech, are saying the exact same thing. Don't they have thoughts of their own? Can't they think for themselves? It certainly doesn't look that way. I'm surprised the women are being bamboozled so badly. It's shocking.  Oh, and I love the way Debbie Wasserman-Schultz got caught in another lie and then lied about it... ...
