Re: do you have a good cat story for me?

haven't read much of this thread, but one of my weight loss attempts was a
400 calorie diet for a month, DH prepared all of the food and recorded it, i
gained a half pound.

The reasons for my being overweight started with genetic issues, german/am
indian decsent... exaserbated much by experimental drugs to save my
eyesight... by the time i figured i had to do something i was grossly
overweight... I joined WW to feel like i was doing something and because it
had worked to some degree... i found that after some serious study i
actually MUST eat meat, and I must limit starches... yes calories matter
but what your body needs also matters, and in many instances it is not
simple...WW has also taught me that i am an anomoly in the overweight world,
I quit eatig when stressed instead of binging, i have never binge eaten, and
only once stress ate, when my mom had her recent heart attack i wanted all
of the foods she cooked for us as kids... so no its really not that
simple... btw i have lost around 85/100 pounds

I have a lovely friend who weighs 28 stone at least. She claims she
doesn't eat much. Of course she does. I pretend to agree with her so
I don't upset her.

She weighs 28 stone, as in 177,8 kg??? Wow!!
Not even my ex in his big days weighed that much... ("only" abt 145kg /
22,8 stone...)

And maybe she doesn't eat MUCH, but what she eats is the wrong kind...
(I tend to do that myself at times...)

Hey I eat Healthy and exercise and do my best to do the right thing and
I am still big. Sometimes it is genetics sometimes it is medication
sometimes it is overeating and eating the wrong thing at the wrong time.
Lack of exercise and the wrong foods are dangerous.

They have evidence right now that some obese and overweight people don't
have the ability to control what they eat. They don't feel full. This
lack of control is caused by the lack of a certain chemical. They got a
new experimental weight control surgery that they go in through your
mouth instead of cutting into your body. So far out of 120 patients
120 great outcomes. They are in the second part of the study on a
broader range. It is cheaper and less stress and hospital time

I'm not fat-bashing here, I'm no li'l tinkerbell myself either... There's
enough of me for two normal-sized people. I weigh about 125kg (275,6 lbs
/ 19,7 stone)...


I'm not fat-bashing either. My friend often diets very hard but she is so
big that if she loses 5 stone you can hardly notice it, which discourages
her.
Once you are overweight you only need to maintain an average diet to
maintain the weight you have.
I think the secret probably is to notice if you are getting bigger and
then cut down your food intake or increase exercise no matter how you
think it happened, even if you don't feel full after a meal you are aware
you are getting bigger which suggests you are eating too much for your
calorie out-take. Drink a few glasses of water to fill you up.
As I said, it's not rocket science. Eat less calories than you expend =
weight loss. Eat more = weight gain. It really is that simple.

But very hard to do. I will never fat-bash because I was once overweight
myself.
All my clothes are now too big for me since I was in hospital, my skirts
fall off me and my tops are so huge that they show my bosom now, which is
not professional. I will have to buy smaller clothes.

Tip: if you want to lose weight, go into hospital and have nil by mouth
for a few days. Or you could try it at home ;-)


I'm joking. I was hydrated through a drip I was not allowed to eat. I
fell on the food when it was ok 3 days without food or drink, I didn't
mind what it was. I scarfed it up.

The trouble with hospitals here is that the nurses are instructed to put
nil by mouth on the whiteboard by your bed and no-one remembers to take it
off.
