Am so tired of people who ask every ten minutes why they're not losing weight

  • Popular Post

I know...I know....we've all been there. And it's important to be patient with newer folks and to be empathetic to their frustration.

I'm so wrong for this....but I just want to smack the **** out of them. Which would not be helpful.

I'm sort of re-evaluating the value of habitually reading this board.

It's all starting to loop around and around in this anxious cycle of angsty mental health issue driven repetitive slurry.

I'm starting to identify these stereotypes of posters that repeat over and over....

The Bird....I will not eat over 500 calories because calories are bad.

The Protein Addict....Must never eat carbs again or the world will explode.

The Why Me Whiner....Where's my yellow brick road, Dr. Nowzaradin?

The Documentarian.... Ate one and three quarters blueberries this morning for a total of 4.37687calories.

The Rebel without a Clue.....I ate a whole pizza yesterday just to see if I could cram one in there. I could! I want my money back!

The Pain in the Ass angsty Know It All.....who writes offensive insensitive rants like this one.

The Research Junkie.....sort of like the pain in the ass angsty know it all...but with more links.

The Fat Shamer.....let me endlessly describe how much I hated my fat, and by extension how offputting I find other fat people

The Size Queen.....Can I slip my new pants size into casual conversation?

The Oblivious Question Asker.....Um, I'm two weeks out, can I have chicken McNuggets and a large coke and fries yet?

The Lonely Soul.....Hi, We should be besties. I'm going to write 9/10 posts about how cool I think you are.

The Stuck Veteran....I lost weight ages ago and kept it off, but I still obsess about weight loss daily.

The Message Board Christian.....Lets slip Christ in there, just for the hell of it. Pray for me!

Maybe I just have a shitty attitude today. I'm bored. I'm tired of thinking about weight.

I'm glad I had surgery. A few bumps in the road, but I'm doing really well all things considered. I'm committed to following through.

But I'm so freaking tired of thinking about this.....and having it consume so much of my life.

And equally scared of not being vigilant.

Just kinda....ornery. Sorry.

    Here's a rant: You know what I don't like? Country music. So when I stumble into a local bar called "Cowboy Saloon" and there's a room called "This Room Is All Basically Country Music At High Vol

Who/whAt is the OP?

Original poster - the person that started the topic and/or original topic the thread was about. People usually do this when a topic gets pages deep and has been side tracked.

Sure you do.

No, I don't. And I'm not the OP, so I'm not sure why you issued this sarcastic response. Editing is only allowed during a brief window, maybe 10-20 minutes after the post. So I legitimately don't understand why the fact that the posts are edited is worth a critical comment.

When the OP has edited every single post in the thread. Sigh.


You can’t edit posts after about 15 minutes. And you can’t edit other people’s posts.

You also can’t delete an account (for the person who asked) however you can turn off notifications in your settings.

Yes, I know.

This post continues to be hella entertaining - even though the OP moved on like 6 days ago.

LOL!!! Nah. I’m sure she’s keeping count of her bumps. They mean so much to her.
