Okay, it might be time to go on a diet now.
I broke another toilet seat yesterday...

Lifelong battle with my weight, body image and food.
Problem being I had a decade long battle with anorexia/bulimia...but, I have always loved sweet and unhealthy foods. It is like a control issue really. At one point I was 70Ibs at the height of 5'11.
I was plump at the age of around 10, which is also the age at which I was abused and I think that set up some sort of a complex about being anywhere near the weight I was then.
I am 5'10 now (anorexia shrank me) and am at my heaviest...(or was. I have lost 7 ibs in the last 2-3 weeks. )
I am 143 at the moment and aiming to get back down to 130 or so by xmas.
I oddly found that doing a lot of walking was making it harder for me to lose weight... not sure if it was muscle mass or what.
but the last 3-4 days I have been losing half a pound a day.
It isn't really to do with looking good or health for me.
It is about having a phobia of doing exactly the same sort of thing as another poster said they did...breaking a toilet seat, breaking a chair etc.
I only have to make a floorboard creak and I get into a mad rage about my 'heavyness'.
So imagine my current situation, living in an apt that has a series of nailed down boards usually used in attics/lofts covering the floor.
Jump up and down on one and the whole lot shift.
But year. I consider myself overweight at anything over 139Ibs, no matter what my BMI is because to me, anyt hing over that is a man's weight, not a woman's weight. |

Graelwyn,
It's very unhealthy to think that 150 lbs is heavy for someone who is 5'10" tall, even if the person being weighed is female. Please DON'T lose any more weight. The only thing that losing more weight can give you is death.

I've been overweight for much of my life myself. I've never been fat, but I've been privy to the food-as-comfort phenomenon a lot of people have on here. I was bullied and very lonely as a child, so I would snack and eat to numb the pain. I know how hard it can be.
I am still a big guy in frame and not weight anymore. I have a footballer's body and a very large upper body (ironically, this makes buying new clothes hard in the sense that if you took away my large upper frame, I'd fit into a medium size, but because I'm so built up top, I have to wear XL and it's damn frustrating).
Here's how I've been dealing with my weight -- I don't drink exceptionally often, I don't eat a tremendous lot of carbs and I exercise.
Thing is, I'm doing it for my health, not image. I'm in my early 30s and I'm honestly concerned that, if one was to let themselves go, there's a huge risk for things like diabetes (a truly evil condition that's affected a few of my friends), heart disease and other conditions. My motivation is seeing how important it is to maintain a reasonably healthy body weight, not for any particular image-related issue. Bottom line is this: some people are lucky to have the bodies ideal for our particular time. But in fact, they are in the minority (and, if these were pre-historic times, would probably have been the first to die off). Many of us have to work hard to keep pounds off, let alone get thinner, and many celebrities that society worships have personal trainers, dieticians, money to spend on maintaining a near-perfect physique. It's an illusion and unattainable for the vast majority of us. |
