We--the family and I--went to the casino the other day to have lunch. Everybody had like Wampum points and coupon thingies and such, so we decided to spend them. I've been trying to be on a diet and I think I've been doing pretty good. We went to the new eatery there called Panera's Bread. I had a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup and half of a ( Read more... )

It sounds like you made good choices when you went out with your family. Nice job! I know this is going to sound awfully presumptuous, and maybe even arrogant, but please don't be offended, okay? Because I know we don't really know each other that well, but I do care about you and I care what happens to you, and I know how you feel about your body. I've felt it. I still feel it, every day ( ... )

Yes, I've tried everything. Or everything I can think of anyway.

I go walking every day with my Aunt Tina who had the surgery about a year ago.

Plus (I'm mildly embarassed by this though I'm not sure why), I have a couple of those old Sweatin' To The Oldies tapes. You know the Richard Simmons ones? I work out to those a few days a week.

And, of course, I've been working on eating better.

But, to be honest, even if any of thsese things work for a little while, they'll stop working eventually, for whatever reason, and what weight I may have lost, I will put back on. And then some.

Believe me, I've been through it before. More times than I'd like to think about. Weight Watchers, low-carbs, nothing but grapefruit, and the starve me diet. I've done it right, and I've done it wrong, and nothing works. I'm sick of it.

And don't worry. I am completely unoffend by anything you said. It's nice to have someone to "talk" to who actually understands what it's like.

Whew! I'm so glad you weren't bothered. I was worried.

Thank you for clarifying this for me; I do appreciate it. When I get into discussions with people about stuff like this, I only have my experiences to draw from, you know?

I'm sorry that nothing's worked for you. Did you write a while back about having PCOS? I know that makes it easy to gain weight and hard to lose it. Good luck in whatever road you wind up taking- I'm sure it's not an easy one either way.

Just so you know, you can always talk to me about anything regarding size, weight, body image, etc.
