I'm having a fat day. Cheer me up please. (Very whiny)

  • TLV, the GIS board is a great resource for new workouts and motivation. Everyone over there is very helpful, and no one condones unhealthy habits (which I think has been brought up here once before).

    <div>To be fair, she called herself fat when she said she was having a fat day. And she admits herself that the post is very whiny. Also, being whiny has nothing to do with looks or weight so it should be fair game.</div>
  • You do realize that feeling fat is quite different from being fat, right?

    Because people with serious eating disorders often feel fat.

    Sigh.  You know, you called CEW an idiot, but I really think that describes you much better.

    You don't have to be fat to feel that way was my point and someone with an eating disorder could very well post in a way that made it seem as though they really were something quite different because that's how they perceive themself.  But you wouldn't actually know that from what she's posted, now would you?

    But you could have just perpetuated that impression in someone with an eating disorder.  But, you don't think she has an eating disorder because she eats chicken wing dip once a week.  Of course, no eating disorder involves eating unhealthy food in mass amounts and then purging it in any way at all, does it?

    Exactly how would you know that? 

    And, she didn't mention any difficulty with making lifestyle adjustments - she mentioned a lack of motivation as the adjustments don't seem to be having the desired effect.  Reaching out for SUPPORT in that scenerio is absolutely the right thing to do. 

    You, on the other hand. . . Poli said it best.

    I dont see how you would never say these things to people who openly have an eating disorder, but its fair game if they dont? Why is there a difference, they are still human beings struggling with something difficult. Do you walk around restaurants criticising people like you have here for their food choices, a small glimpse into their life that has no context because you have no idea what they eat normally?

    You really just lack humanity, you really do. Just crawl back to the whole you exist in and stfu.

    Poli, could you use smaller words please?

    Again, Daffodil2010, STFU.

    Aw mah gawd y'all! She pulled the dumb southerner card.

    Your post was different because it was in response to someone who really just needed a touch of empathy. You won't ever be able to comprehend this because you are incapable of support or helpful insight; all you are able to spew is ridiculous blither and snark. There's your difference.

    You are a stupid, presumptuous, loathesome, foul, prejudice, useless cvnt. I don't think any of those words are regional, so you should be able to read and understand each of them. Your husband is in for a world of fun spending the next 3-5 years with you before he realizes what a pieceofshit you are and leaves you for something smarter and nicer. But godspeed! Have a great one.

  • Being so dumb made me a little sad, but this really cheered me up.

    Well I'm speechless.  It's not because of what you said, it's because my English teachers did such a poor job teaching me vocabulary and subject-verb agreement.  I also don't know my colors and can't put the correct shapes in their slots.

    TLV  - I love you for this response. I probably would have come out like a raging bitch and spun off the planet (and you would be justified). You are one classy lady.
  • Figures. All the big girls sticking together. So because you all don't have any lives and post thousands upon thousands of comments being snarky together, that makes it different. But when someone comes on and posts some shiit back to one of your own, then it's uncalled for. God I feel sorry for your husbands and fiances, and not just because of the physical stuff either. 
  • I wish I had seen this earlier.

    I have problems losing weight too. The only way I was able to get to the high range of normal for my height was eating 1000 calories, running 3 miles, and lifting for 2 hours every day day. For over a year! It was also part of a very unhealthy relationship, and was not a sustainable lifestyle for me. It made me crazy. I will not be that miserable and hungry ever again.

    Now I go to boot camp 5x a week, and train for endurance cycling and triathlon, and still can't get the weight down. And yes, I have consulted a nutritionist. I actually gained 15 lbs training for a freaking marathon.

    Daff, I challenge you to a pushup contest. We'll see whose fat ass wins.

    Pipe down you. You're wrong. Everything you have said so far is based on poor assumptions and false accusations. Stifle yourself, no one wants to hear your ridiculous drowning on about how great you are. TLV did not post anything outrageous, uncouth, or ridiculous. She didn't come in exclaiming "ZOMG my FSIL's infant is going to steal my thunder at my wedding that I'm having for the third time because the first two times didn't count because it wasn't my pretty princess day that mommy and daddy promised to pay for"... so I'm going to refer to PP's and say STFU foo'.

I'm so lucky that the girls I speak to on theknot are nothing like you...I would've never come on here for ADVICE if I would've encountered a big a bitch as you. I genuinely feel awful for your children or your future children, and I think it would be irresponsible of YOU not to invest in their future therapy sessions starting now.

    I think she may be an AE of someone who did get flamed for something. SHe just joined yesterday and has had some really angry posts. She's telling us we don't have lives because we post here, but if she must have been reading a lot yesterday...  Either that, or she's got anger issues.

    Oh my, how original you are. No one has ever said they felt sorry for all of our husbands and fiances. You came into this thread to talk a bunch of noise about someone you know, literally, nothing about. At this point, no one gives a flying fucking shiit if you feel sorry for anyone. I'm surprised you're capable of sympathy, given your other posts.
