Hi flyawayana,
I have the solution and answer to your horrible night mare.First off let me say that exercise is really not necceseray for weight loss, actually you could exercise 23 hours a day but if the remaining hour of the day you eat more than what your body needs, you will gain weight, simple as that!Exercise or weight training is just to gain or maintain muscle, which is essential to burn more calories and fat, but not really THAT important in terms of Nutrition.But what I am about to tell you is revolutionary and might change your life forever.
Its called zigzagging or cycling calories, basically you shift your calories every other few days.This method is very popular for weight loss and is featured on the fatloss 4 Idiots Diet(which has helped many people lose weight very quickly).I calculated your calorie needs to maintain your weight and its about 2000 calories.Try this, on the first day eat 1200 to 1400 calories , do that the next day and on the third day, eat your maintenance calories(the calories you need to maintain your weight), then on the fourth day start all over again, if you stop losing weight , its probably because youve lost weight and your calorie needs for you to maintain weight need to be lowered and doing that you will have to eat fewer calories to lose weight.
This has worked for me and ive gone from 91kg to 84 kg in about a month.
I hope you can give this diet or method of eating a try and let me know how it works out for you, good luck and dont give up!

| It's not sarcastic in the least. It's hard to believe you could come across this site and think 1,500 calories is "SICK" and then call yourself "GROSS" and "MUTATED." I've seen a lot of people on here go about it with much better regard for the people who are reading their posts, including yours about being stuck at 85.

legume: id appreciate if you just shut up if you have nothing usefull or good to say. i really dont need anyone else telling me how stupid my goals are at the moment. or telling me that how i express myself isnt acceptable.
and you seem to have more problems with people and their goals than anyone else on this forum.... keep to yourself about it eh? i think im right in saying that we are all a little frustrated and dont need people saying stuff like " i cant take you seriously" if you cant, then... hey, DONT POST. .... concept.....

I am sorry that you are going through this. I went through a similar challenge. I was alot worse off, but I could not drop an ounce. I was 260 pounds and I was not going anywhere.
I tried every commercial diet and weight loss scheme, and they worked for a few weeks. It wasn't until I got referred to a doctor (triforlife.net) that I actually found someone that took a look at everything that was going on with my health and my body.
He taught me how to take car of myself through education, supported me and then made me accountable. In 1.5 years I am down to 125 from 260. My goal is 118. The best part is...I know that I will never go back the other way.

260 to 125. Headed for 118!

I would kill to have 32 -33 inch hips.
I had 32 inch hips 2 years ago, Now I'm almost 40 inch hips.:(36 inch bust, and 30 inch waist. I don't feel I'm Huge and mutated looking and I'm a lot bigger than you. Don't get me wrong, I do want to lose weight. I'm only 5 4", and weight 147.
It sounds to me like your excercising a lot but not eating enough. Your probably burning over 2,000cals with all the excercising your doing. Maybe if you up your calories to 1700 or something that would help.
Good Luck!

Like you, I'd just about kill for those measurements! I don't think I've been at those numbers since my teens! Man!
I presently weigh 298, my measurements are outrageous, but also like you, I don't think of myself as a mutant or grotesque. Granted, I'd love to be at 180--my goal weight--which, if you note, is more than what she is now!
It is just that some people are significantly more focused on surface elements. Yah, I'm overweight (obese) and try to lose weight, but that does not prehibit me from priming and toning my inner-self. But, if we are brought up in an environment where weight is a BIG issue and we are at that sensitive time in our lives or not strong enough to fight through it, weight then becomes our focus in life. Unfortunate.
That is how it is in my family. Weight is a very big issue. Someone always has a comment to make about someone else's weight. But, in my family we have extremes--either TOO skinny or TOO fat. We have no "average" sized people. But Ma, notorious with weight comments, obviously taught this to my siblings--though I was fortunate enough to have to strength to surpass that mess. Everything with her is "Doesn't she make you feel skinny?" or "She is skinner than me." It is always about weight with her--she is a very surface/shallow person, but unfortunately there are many, many other people out in the world just like her.
Here's what I wish we could do...even for just one day. O'girl at hundred-whatever pounds and me at 298--switch "fat" for ONE day! Just one...in fact, just ONE HOUR of public life. Believe me, after that, you'd look in the mirror and see nothing but contentment with your size! You'd definately learn something important about you!
However, as this is not feasible, all I can say is stop being so ruthless to yourself. There are plenty enough people in this cold lonely world that are more than willing to give you all kinds of full doses of that without you doing it to yourself. For a minute, look INTO yourself instead of AT yourself and see what's really going on.
Yah, this post may not suite your fancy, but hey, I am not trying to make your life right, that is YOUR job!

Hi Rosanna,
I definately agree with your post. It sounds like we have the same mother. But like you I try to ignore her.
Anyway, I try not to focus to much on my weight, I certainly don't let it get in the way of my goals in life, I guess I was trying to make FlyAwayAnna feel better about herself. She said she was "huge and mutated looking" I'm bigger than her and I don't think I am. I guess everyone looks at themselves differently, no matter what they weigh.
Thank you for the post, Good luck with your goals, I'm sure you'll do well, You have a good attitude about things.
Krissy

wow, aw,thanks for all the posts back.... i wish i could do what some of you are saying. the whole "look into yourself, not at yourself" thing and trying not to be so harsh on myself... but if youve lived my life, looking INTO myself would be even worse than looking AT myself.
sorry your moms were all about weight. mine isnt at all. shes so not caring about it, that shes really big. just like her mom... i refuse to end up looking like the 2 of them.
ive always been a bit OCD with a lot of things - and the fact that i wasnt allowed to dance in a ballet performance, "because so and so looks better on stage - oh and she fits nicer into the costume, with you we would have to let it out some.." that basically grounded me into "well s***, thats that then."
then agian, maybe everyone is right and im just the screwy one who should be shut away from society in order not to scare the children ;)
otherwise, im glad that you guys are able to accept yourself the way you are. ive always been jelouse of people who can do that.
oh yeah, and i do know how you feel about people treating you different. they treat you diff. cause of your weight, but they treat me like a freak who you shouldnt get too close to - cause of all the scars on my arms/ legs. (yeah yeah, wear long sleeves, i know, but on days its 90 somthing degrees out, screw it, im wearing short sleeves)

Ok, I'm new to this site and don't really know where to turn in terms of weight loss. Here it goes....
About three years ago I was up to 150 lbs, and I was 16! I was really big for my age, and not healthy for my height. I'm 5'0" by the way. Now that I'm 19 I sort of am at the weight that I want. However, there is still fat on my body that I want to get rid of. I bought two areobic excercise videos and have been doing them practically every morning. I also walk my dog for 30 minutes, and ride my bike for 20 minutes. But the problem I have is the healthy eating. I figure if I eat healthy foods then ther's no limit to the amount I consume. WRONG! I have this problem with over eating and pretend that I won't gain any weight because of what size I'm at. I know I've got to learn to control my portions and eat healthier but I really don't know how to. I need help on the healthy eating part and on the excercise part. I want to fit good into a bikini by this summer but when I tried a bikni on today at a store in the mall I really didn't like what I saw. I want to work on my stomach being flatter and just toning my body fully. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME!!!!!!!!

Like my doctor said, we all should be at the weight we are comfortable with, not what the general public thinks we should weigh. In other words we know our bodies better than anyone else. That being said, I don't think you are extremely fat or anything and I don't want to sound mean but I think there might be other hidden issues behind the weight. I think you have a very negative opinion about yourself and you may need to accept yourself more. Now for the weight, the less you weigh, the more difficult it is to get off....good luck and keep doing the right healthy things and you will get to goal.

I know what you mean. I feel uncomfortable wearing short sleeves too. I am a red head so my skin is soooo white and people make fun of me for it. I guess I am discriminated because I am too white lol. People are just cruel sometimes...learn to ignore them and go on. Wear those short sleeves and be proud, the #%@&! with those who make fun of you. Bad karma will get them back.

Hi, Sounds like you want to incorporate some toning or weight training exercises, as you are mostly doing cardio. This should in time give you a lower body fat %.
Regarding over-eating, I also find this a problem, whether the foods are unhealthy or healthy. My mum thinks there could be a genetic component as she could also munch on vegetables all day long. You could try self-hypnosis (I'm getting mixed results) or keeping a food-diary, or looking at whether your symptoms qualify as an eating disorder.
