Morbid Obesity

Recommended Posts

No matter how healthy I eat or how much I diet exercise I’m still an obese fat slob.  I even had weight loss surgery for fucks sake about 9 years ago, lost 120 lbs. and somehow have managed to gain about 80 lbs. of it back.  My doctor says it due to my many meds.  This sucks.  Anyone else have this problem?  My sister can live on McDs and never gain a pound while if if I even look at a French fry I gain weight.  Grrrrr!

I'm fat, but I don't care. But I can lose weight, really fast. Last year I was really sick, and lost 20 lbs. in a week. When I am sick, I do not eat at all. I have been over a week without food plenty of times. 

Try eating a piece of grapefruit after each meal. It will help burn the fat. Back when I worked out and was in great shape, I always ate grapefruit. Also, Subway helps. I was on that for a year. I'd get a 12'' sub every day. Turkey, low fat mustard, lettuce, tomato, banana peppers. No cheese. Two bags of Sun Chips. Two bottles of apple juice. I'd split that meal. Half for lunch and half for dinner. No breakfast. No snacks, unless it was a small grilled chicken salad, or grapefruit. I would walk two miles every day as well. I carried a ten pound dumbbell in each hand and curl that while I walked. 

If you try the Subway diet and eat grapefruit, and walk a little, the weight should start falling off. But you have to stick to it. You can't cheat. Once you cheat, you will give yourself that sense that it's ok. You will feel a lot better. And you will not want or crave anything else after a while. I didn't care for the plan to start with, but after a short while, I didn't want anything except what I was eating. Which was all healthy.

I've dropped about 15 pounds the past few weeks.

Probably just my muscles disintegrating since I'm laying around a lot and haven't changed eating habits significantly.

Thought am drinking less sugar bomb coffee energy drinks and packing on less stress weight so eh.

30 more pounds and I'll be just below the reaper's BMI coffin squad.

Anything that'll help with the anxiety. 

Speaking of which. It's time to hit the J. 

Now I wish I had enough to grab a tenner...

I can only handle muh weeds when I'm drunk or on antianxiety meds because I feel like I'm going to die and start having existential crisis if I blaze exclusively

Bro, you are the only person I know who weed doesn't help their anxiety. Not questioning you. Just stating. I smoke because my anxiety is severe. It helps me, and it also helps with IBS. This last batch is potent as fuck. I took two tokes last night and was high as hell for two hours.

What?

I know quite a few people who avoid weed because it exacerbates their anxiety.

I'm fat, but at this point I'm too set in my ways to do anything about it. I've been roughly the same weight for a while. Sometimes if I notice I'm putting on a few extra pounds I'll hold back on some unhealthy stuff cause I figure I might be starting to retain water, but I'm just not gonna sit down and count calories or punish myself by withholding something I enjoy.

As I've gotten older I have been able to better recognize when I'm starting to use food a supplement and can stop or choose something not as destructive.

Im not really worried about weight as much as I wanna firm up some areas. I could do that pretty easily if I got back into swimming like I was. Im just being lazy and using work, this graduate program, and single motherhood as excuses not to participate in self care. My self care has gotten pretty bad since I released the miniature

You beat me then. On average though, it seems one can lose 20 or more pounds per week, if they eat nothing. 

It's easier obviously when you're sick. No appetite at all. For me anyways. Hard as hell for someone who is hungry and has no food, or someone just trying to lose weight. My best diet is getting the flu.

There were multiple reasons I was losing so much weight so fast but regardless, I don't wish that experience on anyone.

I find that a lot of the meds tend to affect my sense of satiety. If I don't actually track what I eat, I'm like a goldfish - I'll eat til I die, or at least until I'm uncomfortable. And some of them make me hungry  - zyprexa was good for about 40 pounds...

No. I wouldn't wish homelessness on anyone. Glad you got out of that situation. 

Not to bring it up, but I got off the streets due in part to a 911 call. I was sitting on a bench a ways off from a Piggly Wiggly and it was like 7pm or something. Someone called the cops and said I was breaking into the Piggly Wiggly, which was still very much open. 

Cop shows up and does his spiel, hands up, blah blah blah. Sees I'm just a teenager and asks for my info and starts running it while talking with me. He didn't believe I was homeless, which was understandable cause it was a smaller town with no real homeless population. 

Second cop whips in and flies out of his door and pulls his gun on me and starts screaming he'll blow my head off and gets real close to me. Other cop yells at him to back off, it as just a homeless kid. 

Long story shirt, gung ho gun cop asks if other dude needs help, hears him say no, and pulls out of there. First cop contacts next of kin, abusive step dad picks me up awhile later and that started a whole nother crappy chapter, but I was officially off the streets.

Damn girl. That's a sad story. I'm not gonna ask, but I think I have an idea about how you became homeless, and it sucks that you had to go back with an abusive asshole. I strongly dislike hearing about people, especially children, being abused. Whether it is physically or mentally. That is one thing that will turn me into Hulk mode. In any event, I am glad things are better. Really.

I became homeless because my dad doesn't like "faggots." There's more to it but I've derailed this thread enough as is.

Well, in all fairness, the op made the thread and dipped. And I was wrong in my assumption. I was leaning towards to abusive step dad.

I've been sort of a fat kid my whole life but towards the end of my high school years and my early 20s I dropped from 250 lbs to 180 in a span of about 1 or 2 years. I was able to keep it off for a while until my depression eventually got the best of me and I gained about 50 lbs more weight than i was at 17. Not to discredit you or your life, but I dealt with a lot of shitty people I thought were close to me but when I lost as much weight as I did they didn't give less than a fuck about me and my happiness/mental health. I trudged through college dealing with a fair amount of dysphoria and both my body and professional relationships I tried making suffered greatly as a result. 4 deaths of people close to me and several burned bridges later, I'm struggling to find a reason to be happy with my self. It doesn't get any better because speaking about it will only cause me more pain because the society we live in normalizes the suppression of strong emotions often, opting to mask the problem as opposed to finding the root cause.

So why do I speak about it? I guess I'm a glutton for punishment.

Yup. Health shit made me pack on a bunch of weight, which is super not great for my terrible joints. It's taken about two years to lose a good portion of it because the process has been incredibly painful. I was also worried about excess skin, so that's another reason I did it slowly. Now that the pain has almost gone back to my normal levels, I guess it's worth it. Losing weight probably would have been easier if it had occurred to me to spend more time googling messageboard posts of people with the same ailments as me doing it too.

I've been gaining wieght I'd just lost back fast since I've been more or less just sitting on my ass for the most part, but I've never been "obese" either. Find some way to burn calories that is also fun, and motivating for you. I know some people are kind of genetically predisposed in the matter, and that sucks.
