how do I gain the will power to stop weighing myself everyday? because weight fluctuates sometimes I'm 3lbs heavier and feel like shit about myself and sometimes I lose 0.2lbs and feel like I'm wasting my time.

To the person asking about learning Tableau -

R unfortunately won't get you very far in Tableau because of its undisputedly goofy syntax.

I worked at the Tableau HQ for a few years. Tableau's training videos on their website will get you about 80% of Tableau's functionality. The other 20% is years and years of trial and error. I've been at it for 7 years and I'm probably around the 95% mark. My plan is to put together a cool project to feature in my professional portfolio. For now it's just slopped together with some fitness data. Some of my calculations are wrong.

I'm right there with you, anon. I have been EXACTLY the same weight for 4 days (I drink a ton of water, wake up and shit my brains out every day, and then weigh myself.)

Driving me crazy.

No, there's no way to stop. It's maddening.

Weigh yourself once a day in the morning after your BM and after taking a leak. May help to improve your mood but weight tends to fluxuate by a large margin throughout the day.

>>42027919
that's what I do but I haven't had a nice hefty dump in awhile. But I weight myself at the exact same time everyday and I don't see anything but weight gain some days and loss in others. so far I've noticed that it has been declining but i want it to drop everyday not one day I'm 193.7 and another day I'm 190.2 it's not fair
>>
>>42027769
Well let us say that is about 6 months away or 25 weeks.

My weight loss has slowed from the 256lbs I started to the 235.5 pounds now.

If I say two pounds a week then I should be able to lose 50lbs until new years. Taking me down to 185lbs.

Trying to get in shape again lads. I was 230 when I graduated high school, but after busting my ass I went down to around 180. Fast forward 6 years later and I became a lazy fuck due to my job and shot up to 215. I'm losing it again, but fuck it's a lot harder now than it was when I was 18/19. Hopefully I make it.

>>
>>42027919
Hey Apple, I'm not sure if it's been changed already but tried to catch your eye. I put in the wrong losertown date, should be 17th October. I think I put the end date not first 20lbs.

Do you know if people tend to get a date based on sedentary or if they do adjust the activity for it? I've set mine to light although I go to the gym daily for runs and classes.
>>
>>42028148
There are a few API's that you can call natively from Tableau (Javascript, REST.) R is on it's own island of goofiness. Tableau's syntax is a query language, so hard programming is going to get you further in R than it will Tableau. Tableau and SQL are fundamentally nearly-identical. Most of Tableau's power comes from complex calculated fields (query language programming.)

My suggestion - take any data you have regarding your weight loss/fitness, plug it into Tableau, and just play with it. You can get a free 14 day trial of Tableau desktop (developer platform) from their website, or a free license of Tableau public (basically desktop, but instead of saving files locally, forced to publish to their public cloud.)

Does height increases the weight loss? I mean would shorter person would lose weight faster as oppose to me (6'4 275 lbs)?
>>
>>42028542
no, Height just makes the Fat more spread out, meaning less issues with loose Skin, and you usually look Skinner than you actually are.
>>
>>42028542
It's the opposite, taller guys lose weight faster than us manlets, at least i think so
>>
>>42028469
Doesn't that give you a higher squat and dead same as mine should give me a higher bench and curl.
>>
>>42028542
Height decreases the amount of weight you need to lose to be at a healthy weight. Right now you are obese, but thanks to your height you are not past the point of no return or anything.

I'm 6ft1 and 202 pounds. I'm in the middle of a cut (already down from 220 earlier in the year) with a goal of 180. You could get down to 200 and be at a healthy weight, so your current plan should be to lose 75 pounds over the next 12-14 months. That sounds like a long time, but every day you either stay at 275 or gain weight, it will be that much longer to get back to a healthy weight.

You being 6ft4 gives you an advantage many people don't have when losing weight.
>>
>>42028542
yes and no. manlets have smaller frames, and therefor smaller organs and reduced muscle mass. what this means is that a 5'6'' dude and a 6'2'' dude who both start at 275lbs would both be able to maintain a ~2lb per week loss for the first series of weeks, but the manlet would be able to continue that rate for a longer period of time due to having a lower basal metabolic rate.
however, just because the manlet can lose fat faster and for longer, that doesn't mean he's getting to his goal any faster. the taller guy may have to cut weight more slowly, but won't have to cut as much weight to get to the same bf%. the same principle applies when comparing two people who are both 6' and 300lbs, but one is 22%bf and the other is 40%bf. fatty mcjiggletits can lose weight at a rapid rate and keep it up for a while, but beefcake will have abs first

>>42028202
Updated. Also with calculating anything that requires an activity check I put in sedentary. Any calories I gain from exercise are just a nice bonus. For instance I'm eating around 1300 right now (PSMF, I both do and don't recommend it) and but about 3900. That's just 2600 of sweet, sweet bonus.
>>42028274
Plateaus happen. If you hit 7 days of plateau, switch to maintenance for a few days (people recommend a week, I've personally done 3 days and then switched back and was back to losing significantly).

reached 158lbs, been lifting for 5-6months while dieting but there was not a lot of progress IMO, should i start bulking now? the handles are still there, but i don't think they will dissapear if i keep cutting.

Holy shit, duck is filling as fuck.
>>
>>42028542
Obviously, there is a positive relation between one's lean mass, and the amount of weight they can lose weekly, therefore it should be easier to lose 70 lbs as a tall guy (assuming individuals who are averagely muscular).
>>
>>42029182
Benefit is having a lower body fat percentage, really. Lower fat gives you a bit more wiggle room for building lean muscle mass at a more consistent pace.

Continue to lift as you cut to 190, then switch to maintenance for 2 months while focusing on lifts. This should see you to 4-6 lbs of lean muscle mass while tightening up loose skin.

>>42027829
First, you have to realize that there is no fucking way you gained fat if you stayed below your calorie goal, and therefore you shouldn't worry about the days the scale shows an increase. Second, you shouldn't stop weighing daily, because you'd probably experience the same problem if you only weighed yourself once a week, but you'd panic even more, as you'd think that that definitely can't be a fluke. Third, you should log your daily weight, so you can make a sexy graph out of it, and just look at all your progress when you feel like pigging out.

graph that shit in excel. Cool to see while there are some fluctuations day to day if you're dieting right you can see a steady trend going down. linear regression it
>>
>>42027829
>>42028987
I like weighing myself every day, but you need to make sure to be objective about it. Keep in mind what you ate for the last 1-2 days if your weight stays steady or goes up. Maybe you ate something or continue to eat something that you shouldn't, or perhaps you need to drink more water to keep things moving.

What's important is to just watch it trend. Don't feel defeated because it went up a little, or stayed the same. There can be many reasons for this. If you stick to it, it *will* go down.

Also, if you aren't measuring any other way, you're doing it wrong. Measure yourself with a tape measure in the fatty bits (tummy along navel, chest along nipples, thighs, biceps, maybe other spots).

Also, measure your energy levels. Keep a log of how you feel every day. Make sure your tracking your water and sunlight exposure. All of these things are important.

no, our metabolism slows down when we sleep. but ~8 hours of relaxed inactivity is great for recovery, stress reduction, and general wellbeing. while we are physically capable on living on little sleep, our brains are programmed to want to sleep regularly, and will signal that there's a problem even if we are almost fully rested. regularly underresting can cause a buildup of stress reducing overall quality of life, so sleep has more impact than just "fat burned over time". if you get less sleep you'll burn less fat, but it would be from fatigue reducing your ability to work effectively during waking hours and not the lack of fat burned while sleeping.

Freshly certified nutritionist and personal trainer here. Been participating in the thread for a while but I'll take off my name to not bring undue attention upon myself. I see a lot of you that struggle with the nutrition and exercising aspect of weight loss, especially macros when you aren't actively running or lifting. So here's a brief period of time where you can ask me anything and I will do my best to help you. I've got about 2 hours free so go ahead and toss them out there.

I'll give you some from a human perspective. Unfortunately as a nutritionist and personal trainer I'm in contract to a gym to pull people in. When I do get the opportunity to help people as an aside I give them useful information but first and foremost I'm a high commission salesman.

That said, the best tip I have for you in losing weight is to exercise during. A starting program for lifting weights, regular morning cardio and a strong diet. CICO is law but if you need to work on your ability to resist food and strengthen your force of will then I am personally a fan of ketosis or low carb diets. You'll see significant fat loss and have less issues with loose skin if you lift consistently throughout.
>>42029901
1. 1g per pound of lean body mass.
2. During a heavy cut? Loss of muscle mass and general weakness in your day to day. Per the other anon's post, I recommend lifting the entire time so in respect to that you'd fail to make progress on your lifts and probably stagnate early which would lead to a lack of motivation and likelihood of relapsing or 'fuckarounditis/'
3. I've personally only every tried 23:1 or 18:6 but I feel you can have a lot of luck with it during a cut if you can stick to it. Makes eating and sticking to a diet a bit easier. As for HGH levels and the like, the science is all there for fasting being significant in seeing upticks but on a personal level I never noticed a significant change outside of making cuts easier.

I'm here because I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes about 3 months ago.

Since then I've lost about 35 pounds, cut out junk completely, and been going low carb very close or in ketosis.

My ultimate goal is to get diabetes in remission. If you have any advice nutrition wise on how to do that, I'd appreciate it.

Also: excess protein turns into glucose. Would that be enough to increase blood sugar? How careful should I be once I've hit my goal weight and want to increase muscle?

Good questions - I actually just helped a client with type 2 diabetes and he's on the path to putting it into remission.

Basically low-carb is really the key for this process. Depending on your height and weight excessive protein does turn into glucose but if you keep it to 1g per lb of lean body mass you should be pretty golden in taht regard. A handy tool that i used is the keto calculator which tells you the max amount of protein that you can take in - google 'keto ankerl' and you can enter your stats from there.

Also, you need to be careful with intake of sugar alcohol as a diabetic. A lot of atkins and keto foods boast the low carbs because they offset the sugar with that sugar alcohol. Your body can't process it so its traditionally flushed but I've seen it have some intense adverse effects on diabetics when they do try it. I haven't done the leg work on researching it as of yet but I try and steer them clear or at east keep their sugar alcohol consumption limited.

Good luck, man. You're on the right path.

Hey there, I'm 5'10". I've decided on a gaining diet, with a 1200 calorie, protein-intense diet.

>>
>>42028377
I gotta plan better, i end always up buying too much fruits, veggies and other stuff that goes bad like eggs. Then what happens is i'm not even hungry but know that if i don't eat this bell pepper today it will go bad soon. I'm still under my calorie goal on all of these days, but why eat 1800 if you could eat 1500 if you just bought less shit. The sad thing about this is that it is all because of laziness, i'm a neet, i can literally go to the grocery store 7 times a week if i want to but i rather buy grocerys for a whole week at once because i'm lazy.

>>
>>42030384
I really appreciate that. Maybe one or two more questions: what does remission mean, in terms of insulin resistance?

I don't plan on going back to eating carbs and sugar heavily, but right now I'm still basically too afraid to eat them in any significant quantity. I know remission is essentially conditional, that diabetes never goes away. But in remission, will my insulin usage return to some semblance of normal?

Sorry, I'm living in a foreign county. My doctor speaks English but pretty clearly isn't a diabetes expert, and I don't have access to a nutritionist or dietician here so I've been winging it (erring on the side if caution very strongly).

Both are calorie restriction in nature, but ketosis has the benefit of having your body quickly burn through carbohydrates (due to the limited quantity) and producing ketones which burn fat for energy. People at a heavier weight see a lot of fat loss if they're actually in ketosis but a fair amount of them don't do all the research and are just in a deficit. I don't have experience with 'lazy keto' but even on that you're still well below maintenance and burning fat under the assumption you're also exercising.

In summation...
Keto Pros -
>Body fat burned at an increased rate
>During a cut, if you lift weights in keto you're more likely to see gains in your lifts after the first 2 weeks
>Energy levels after 2 weeks are sustainable and you're less likely to feel fatigued in comparison to severe caloric restriction
>Easier for heavier people as they can begin incorporating leaner meat and cooking for themselves while still feeling full
Keto Cons -
>Keto flu if you aren't intaking electrolytes during your initial entry into this phase
>People struggle without carbs in the first 2 weeks before their body adjusts - this can be a deal breaker for a lot of first itme dieters
>High amount of fat in your diet can lead to health issues in the future so its not a sustainable long term solution. I find 'keto lifers' to be ignorant in their research
>People try to do sweets on keto with the sugar alcohol approach and end up shitting their brains out
>If you don't supplement fiber you're going to struggle with bowel movements which can lead to impacted bowel and IBS-like issues

Calorie restriction is pretty simple in comparison. If you can get your protein you can still intake carbs and keep your fats low which will still show weight loss. Keto just incorporates both.

Spot fat reduction is a miss so as long as you're still cutting your body will burn these fat deposits first. If you're intaking protein and working out you'll fill in the muscle over time but that steep of a deficit at your height may leave you hard pressed to make significant gains in your lifts. My recommendation to you is to up your calories while remaining in a deficit, eat at your forecasted protein levels and take the time to lose the weight but make muscle gains. Find a lifting program that works for you and you'll see the results you want in your chest, stomach and hips.

>>42030468
So type 2 remission is a bit more of a process. Remission in this regard is considered as 1 full year of normal A1c. You won't have to take medicine but you can't just go back to normal as its always there. Your doctor will still have you on regular checks but you do get some leeway as long as your blood sugar levels are kept in check. Insulin usage and levels will normalize to a certain degree but you'll still need to exercise and eat properly to ensure a long term fix. Once you lose the weight you want to you can go to maintenance or even a gaining diet to put on muscle but you still need to keep that blood sugar focus in mind.

>>42030592
That's fair, that's pretty much what I figured for blood sugar. One more for now: my doctor is pretty clearly skeptical about me getting off medication. I don't know why. I'm obese but not absurdly so. About two months after diagnosis, I was doing so well he reduced the dosage of medication.

My A1c last month was normal, but he said maybe in 6 months we can take me off medication. Does that seem reasonable?

I'm eating very low carb, I know I'm doing ok. I'm just not sure what kind of numbers I should be hitting regularly to press him to get me off this shit.

Depends on your height and current weight so I've no way of knowing for sure. 2000 kcal seems fair though, during my long cut I was on 1800 the entire time and I'm 6'2". If there's one piece of advice I can give you, I recommend going to the gym at least 3 days a week.

>>42030689
If you continue to cut and get your weight under control, I think 6 months is more than fair for removing your medication. Make sure you're keeping your exercise routine in check but I'd refer to your bodyfat as for a hard number on what you want to be. If you can get at or under 18% body fat then I personally would find your diabetes more than managed. Keep in mind that's 1 of 12 months that your A1c has to be normal so I believe your doctor is just being cautious which is good for a doctor to be. Check back in at that 6 month mark and then just stay the course.

Set a weight loss goal for yourself. What you want to be to be comfortable then achieve it and maintain it. By the time you get to the physical fitness level you want to be I bet you'll be tentatively cured.

>is pretty bad
It is. Losing weight has become more difficult over the years. I've been on long diets on and off for a couple decades and my metabolism has slowly become increasingly efficient - and not in the "breath around chocolate and gain weight" fat logic, I mean in a real, measured quantifiable sense.

Just for example, for over a year and a half when I was in uni I ate 1700Kc a day, measured down to the grams of honey I put in my tea, written down in a food journal I still have, and my weight was static. Starting to eat breakfast before work after I graduated made me gain weight. By now, losing weight requires me to eat less than a literal skeleton in a coffin, so progress is very slow. I go to lunch with colleagues in fancy restaurants and leave most of the food on my plate, and the waiters keep asking me if I didn't like my meal. I'm not even hungry by the end of the day, I don't have cravings, when I tried to push for 140g I would use 2 scoops with water just to spike my protons for that day, and the extra calories would often make my diet stall.

Jesus I know it sounds like fat logic and the instant reaction would be "you're not counting right", but I do and this is what I have to work with.

you could do a rollover trend like the Hacker's Diet describes

Here are my LibreOffice codes for it (will probably work in Excel too):
Weight in A column, Trend in B column:
B1: =IF(A1="", "", A1)
B2: =IF(A2="", "", ROUND((A2-B1)/10, 1) + B1)

Then put your cursor on the lower right of the B2 cell, drag down, and it will apply the B2 cell formula to the B cells below it

Looks like your TDEE should be around 2,200. So if you were eating at 1,700 you would roughly be losing a pound a week. If I were you I would try limiting to around 1,500 for at least a week and weighing yourself daily. Making sure to weigh in the morning after going to the bathroom. If a week goes by and you haven't lost at least a pound then I would be concerned.

But that leads to confusion, walking for an hour spends hundreds of calories, while you eat a meal which can easily have several hundreds of kilocalories. Try calculating raw energy expenditure for moving a 100 kg body upwards for 40 meters and, convert to calories and you'd be surprised how little potential energy you gained. Meanwhile imagine going upwards by feet to 10th floor, that is the same energy.

Your assumption about losing that pound a week is completely based on that arbitrary standardized TDEE measure, which for me is obviously incorrect; I just explained how, for a year and a half, I measured everything I ate and did not gain or lose weight at 1700k. If I ate 2200 a day I'd be gaining, fast. There's nothing to be concerned about - my metabolic rate simply became very efficient after decades of strict dieting.

That's why I suggested eating less than 1700k. But I guess it's better to keep complaining
>>
Alright so far I'm on a steady 3 day streak

I got a bunch of light and fit yogurt whenever I feel hungry and can't hold off until the next meal

I excerisze on the treadmill then eat dinner
Or if I have work, I eat dinner beforehand and exercise afterwards

Any tips for good meals before and/or after excercising?
>>
anyone here have trouble staying on a strict diet/cut for more than a month at a time? longest i've gone is like 5 weeks. i always get this strong urge to celebrate/cheat once i reach a goal. i've probably been on 4 cuts now and i'm getting to the point where i'm scared to start a new one because i know how shitty i will feel when i fall off again ;_;

>>42031352

Fucking hell I'm complaining yeah, 1700kc a day for the rest of my life kist to maintain is fucking awful of course I'd go to Tibetan sheep shaving forums to complain.

>>42031420
M8 I don't have your problems and yet I will still eat anywhere from 800 - 1,300 calories on some days. I agree that it sucks that you can eat at a cut and still not lose weight. The point is that you should try cutting more until you find out at what deficit you can still lose weight and then adjust your diet and exercise accordingly.

So if you need to only take in 1,300 in order to be able to lose a pound a week then put forward your best effort to do so and on days where you feel the need to go over try and do some extra cardio to make up for it.
>>
>>42031407
>4 cuts
you mean you're yo-yoing?

I dunno man
I find losing weight to be easy. Just a few months of deficit and I'm done, but I struggle to keep it off for any meaningful length of time.

I think we're the minority here.
Most here are on their first ever cut.
>>
>>42030819
Sorry, went and made some dinner. Fair goal, I'd say aim for 130 but if you feel comfortable at 140 you could probably maintain there comfortably.

>>42030945
I think you'll be close just dieting but again, personal recommendation, don't just diet or else you're going to have loose skin and be pissed. At least run. And yeah, you can gain lean mass while losing fat at the same moment. Not quite that easily but you'll still make significant progress.

>>42031039

>>42031407
I know you probably want some unique advice but it's really just about willpower man. You can't have the attitude of having a cheat meal, ESPECIALLY not when you reach a fucking goal. That's the last time you should fucking cheat. "Oh boy I just got down to 200lbs! Let me celebrating by instantly ballooning backup to 205!"

It's gonna take time, especially if you're really big (duh) so you have to be thinking of that. If you have a mind set that you're almost done or that "it's just for a little longer!" then you're bound to fail.

Also, it got a lot easier for me to keep under my limit calorie wise after a few weeks. I feel like a problem a lot of people have is that they keep too many shitty foods in their diet. Sure you can still eat twinkies, but you're gonna be limited to a lot less food. Point being that it's easy to get filled up with healthy shit.
>>
>>42031471
>I find losing weight to be easy. Just a few months of deficit and I'm done

Ideally that's what I will reach some day. But for now it's a long road just to get to a decent weight. If I did a short cut I would still be obese.

>>42031505
You're absolutely right, I can't make any excuses I guess. I think if I could cut out drinking juice, milk and soda I would be good. Obviously I've been limiting them but it's hard to give them up.
>>
>>42031542
>I think if I could cut out drinking juice, milk and soda I would be good.

You would be a lot better off for sure. You know that feeling at night when you just want to eat one more bite? One more snack? Cut out every drink but water and you'll have enough calories to have that extra bite.
>>

Assuming you're /fat/ per the thread, I'd peg you around 130-140 lbs of lean mass. Eat at 135g of protein, around 1600 kcal a day. I like low carb but as long as you're exercising you're golden at 1600 so you could do...

135g protein leaving you 1060 kcal to work with... 120g carbs, 65g fat?

Fair, balanced diet.
>>
Question. So my TDEE is around 2,200 so my calorie limit is 1,700. Say I do a crazy cut for a few days, say 1,000 calories, and drop 5lbs and then I go back up to 1,700 calories for the next few days I will gain some weight back and then level out eventually.

What I'm wondering is if that weight I gain after I go back to 1,700 calories is fat being gained back, or just extra weight from eating more food. Is it possible to gain weight while still on a cut if I go from an extreme cut to a less extreme cut?
>>
>>42031704

>going to do another 30 mins of cardio tonight before bed
dropping the fat feels gud m80s
>>
>>42031542
>juice
>milk
>soda

One of these is not like the others, anon.
Just to give you an idea, I am on an average 800-1000 calories intake per day, with about a 700-900 deficit (womanlet who almost made it to skinnyfat) and to reach my protein goal for today with easily stomachable calories (I do OMAD, and it's really tough to eat more than 700 cals in 1 sitting), I drank 4 cups of milk (309 calories, 30g protein).
It's not all black and white, for milk. Of course there are people who will overdo it, but there's a reason skellies use it to bulk up, it's because it has lots of proteins and helps with people who can't eat much.

Shit like store bought juices and all sodas should be avoided at all cost, though.
If you really can't avoid it, get sparkling water and infuse lime slices, mint leaves, or a strawberry cut into pieces in it.

>fighting cravings but realize I'm getting closer to my goal than ever before and the hunger stops
>>
>>42031709
That's not how it works. Your TDEE is what you need to maintain your weight. If you are eating less than it, you be losing weight.

Also, you won't drop 5lbs in a few days eating at 1,000 cals.
>>
>>42031817
>Also, you won't drop 5lbs in a few days eating at 1,000 cals.

That was just an example for the sake of simplicity. But I have done extreme cuts and then gone back to regular cuts and gained 3-5 pounds by simply going back to normal. I figured it wasn't actual fat gain but it feels like a lot to just be the food I'm eating.

Actually start eating right, getting regular exercise, and normalizing your sleep schedule and you'll wake up with a ton of energy.

Now I'm up two hours early, shower shave brush my teeth, prepare something to eat, and I'm actually energized for the day. It's so much better, man.

Been there too /fat/bro. Keep your eye on the prize. I reached my goal previously and then screwed it up big-time. I almost achieved it ... again ... on numerous occasions. This led to additional binges. So yesterday I weighed myself and OH, YEAH!!! Goal Achieved. So, today instead of participating in my traditional Holiday buffet at a casino--I dined in. Dinner was a chicken & broccoli frozen dinner (180 cals & 27 gs of protein). For dessert I'm gonna have yogurt w/ blueberries & strawberries. Keep your eye on the prize! Sorry for the long post.

No, it was a frozen dinner. It was actually penne noodles but they tasted great. I honestly wasn't expecting much but for 280 calories it was great.

And no, it wasn't a great amount. But it was enough to satisfy me along with everything else. Like I said, it's about matching low calories with high amounts of food that you enjoy.

Probably gave up during a cut and is now trying to feel superior to us because he's just eating whatever he wants. Happened to my brother after he was successful and lost a lot of weight.

God, that must be even worse than just being fat. Always being fat and getting fatter sucked, but I can't imagine getting the weight all the way off and then regaining it while doing nothing to stop it.

>>42032781
Yeah it was very strange to me. He was always insanely skinny until his late 20s and when he did the weightloss he had probably only been big for maybe 2 years. I figured he would keep it off for good but he basically spent 6 months getting it off and the second he got there he spent the next 6 months putting it back on.

It's a good reminder for me of what can happen after reaching my goal.
>>
>>42032760
I cook pasta almost every day. 1 oz = 100 calories uncooked, ground beef has a similar ratio. To have spaghetti, meatballs and some kind of tomato sauce and be under 500 calories must mean the portion is very small and not at all helpful to what anon was asking terms of quantity and quality.

Not sure how much longer I can go on. When I was a 380lbs fat fuck I was so happy. Now i'm 190lbs and think about driving my car into a river every day.

Losing weight made me think i was hot shit. Started picking apart the flaws of my fiancee, after months of that she broke down crying and asked me if I loved her anymore and I said no. She moved out the next day,

Same applies to my already strained relationship with my family. Wasn't gonna take any shit anymore so after some comment from my mother that she made a billion times before I hung up on her and blocked all numbers that my family could use to call me.

Now all I do is work, not because I need money but because when i'm at work I can keep my mind off the crushing void that is my life.

I can't remember the last time I was happy.

Sounds like you made a wise relationship choice. You'll likely find someone better who can appreciate your new lifestyle. Sounds like the family thing wasn't really related to your weight loss. But you really do need to watch out for being overly arrogant just because you lost some weight.

M8 pay attention. I clarified it was penne noodles and a frozen dinner. Although to be fair I'm sure I could re-create the frozen dinner myself and get similar results.

Or better yet add some veggies and mushrooms instead of the beef. Hell, throw in some chicken breast for protein and have chicken parmesan.

>>42032960
I'm struggling with it defining what is arrogant and what is having some standards for myself. I know for a fact I could get my fiancee back with one phone call and patch things up with my family with the same.

I just can't bring myself to do it, I want to be treated with respect. I want my needs fulfilled for once, my preferences. Have someone tell me "It's ok, go relax I can handle this" about any life issue. With my fiancee, I felt her her fucking father, she was helpless in any adverse situation.

My mother and father? God the can worms with them I could open. I asked my mother a million times not to make this one comment, but she kept fucking doing it. And my dad, Jesus would it kill him to just fucking notice me? Does he even know now I cut ties with the family? Fuck
