Guest, The MLPTP's Fundraiser and Prize Giveaway will be returning on June 1st! Check out this thread for all the latest news!
I haven't seen any new ponies in my area in ages. I hope maybe he shows up here sometime.
I'm completely unable to lose weight. I think I've just finally reached the combination of age, thyroid dysfunction, and post menopausal state that is preventing weight loss. I gained weight just after my shoulder injury in August. However, I've been back on my regular diet and exercise since November. Exercise has increased now, and lack of available food made my diet stricter. Yet I'm gaining! I can't afford a new wardrobe!
This needs to stop!
Stress can make you gain weight. Your body feels your unease and assumes bad times have arrived, like a famine or such and it starts packing on fat so you'll have a reserve. Women's bodies are cruel creatures.
I lost 20 lbs in one day though. I bought a new scale. Mine has been weighing an extra 20 lbs on everything. I thought I'd gained so much when I hadn't gained any at all.
You know what the same thing is happening to me too. I was like 115. Then all of the sudden I got those dizzy spells remember that? Well, I had to take medication for several months to stop that and I gained like 15 pounds. Now I am off of the medication, but I am on a colon medication now for two conditions I have. I don't eat all that much but, I am thinking that medication is affecting my weight. Now most of my clothes still fit me. Some of my jeans are not though and my shorts are not. So, I am living in leggings which for me with pain and stuff is better anyway. I have managed to lose two pounds. So, I am trying, but I admit that my love affair with Dots certainly did not help me. ROFLOL I also think the menopause stuff is an issue for sure.
I know once I had the hysterectomy I was wrecked. I've gained 40 (which I WISH was a scale mistake, but it isn't). All the sudden I gained a ton. I lost some finally quitting Dr Pepper, but I have a long way to go. But my knees are screwed up from a long ago injury, so I can't run like I used to. I'll figure it out.
Or stay fat. I could just do that too. Sure is easier!
That is so cute!!!
So, R2 went to the TMNT meet yesterday without me because, I decided to fall and injure myself badly. He didn't find any of the NT's on my wanted list. Boooo hissssss So, I took Gnaw and stuck him on top of OP's head in retaliation. Now Gnaw is being guarded by a police car transformer of some kind. I am going to break him out of that jail and stick him in R2's sock drawer and let him munch on the socks.
Today my graceful self slipped on my mother sleep pants fell over a baby gate which was blocking our dogs from getting into the laundry room. I then fell forward hit my head on the wall, fell on my side and hit my back on the tub and scratch my finger on a nail that is in the wall.
ONLY I COULD DO THIS....

You know what is interesting too is that I have lost weight many times in my life. The one thing that has consistently worked for me was grain free, no sugar and only water for beverage. I avoid all processed foods, eat lots of veggies and meat. When I add back my grain it is only oat and none of the others. My problem is allergies too. After three months I add back one cup of blueberries or a pear and no other fruits. I never needed to work out either. I also gave up eating out. Most people don't want to do this and I don't blame them. The only issue is, if I am on medication of any kind this process won't work well. Medication just really messes up my body. Most of the time I don't have to take a lot of medication. However, with this new illness I have its messing up the way my organs work and now I am having to take things for my digestive system. blaaa
I do declare eventually I will give up my Dots again!!
Anyone know other place that sale target gift cards I need to order something but I don't live near a target and my mom wont order it for me. I have been looking and looking for a place that sale gift card to get one. I got the money just no way to get a card. This suck majorly....
I've never had trouble losing weight before. Maybe our utter brokeness will get me on the starvation diet.
Otherwise. You only live once. I enjoy the taste of some foods. I'd rather be a little fat and have a little enjoyment than inflict a diet that will depress me on myself. Or my daughter for that matter.
My problem is I never had to lose weight before. We're pretty small people, so gaining weight is like a big deal to me. People tell me I look fine, but of course they say that, they're being nice! I know I've gained it, and I need to lose it, but I work hard every day and nothing is shifting. What do I need to do? 500 sit ups? Like that's gonna happen.
Let's all just be fat together. I'll make us some snacks.
Yea I come from tiny people too. My dad is 5.5 my mother was 5.3 and I am 5.0. Then there is R2 6.2...baaaaaaaaaaa 500 sit ups yea right. I wouldn't make it through one before everything would go into a crick and my head wouldn't turn, my hips wouldn't rotate at the joint, my knees with not move, my thighs would go numb, my ankles and toes would start to burn and my bum would feel like a hot potato. I had to get a walker with a seat at my age good grief. So, to celebrate that I look like Granny smith now. I plan to put MLP stickers all over my walker. The only problem will be when R2 needs to use it and its full of ponies. Perhaps I need a few Marvel/Transformers/Star Wars stickers too. I am ready for my first walker race I can sit on the seat and R2 can run and push me to win a million dollas. Oh that reminds me I need streamers and some cans and bells too
