After six months of eating healthy and exercising, I went from 210 lbs to 157 lbs. (I'm 5'11 by the way.) Losing 53 lbs is a huge accomplishment in my opinion. It was hard. I had to basically learn a new way of life. I'm proud of myself. I made the incorrect assumption that others would be just as proud of me. Yeah, those bitches aren't. I get told on a daily basis that I am "too thin", that I "need to gain 10 lbs", that I need to "stop losing weight". What the hell? I can't figure out if I am getting this shit because the fatties are jealous I ditched them or if skinny people deal with this all of the time. Which is it? they are jealous of you. what you did took incredible self discipline. kadoos to ya.

I have not gained an ounce. (Sorry Scruffy, I didn't get fat by Christmas.) By September, I lost an additional 7 pounds and have maintained 150 since then. I just went for my annual physical and my doctor was very happy. My cholesterol went from 225 to 134 and my triglycerides went from 187 to 48. My weight went from 210 to 150. My pants size went from 38 to 30. I'm pretty damn impressed with myself. I am still getting asked if I'm sick though!

Get used to people telling you that you need to gain weight but listen only to your closest and most trusted friends. There is a point where losing too much weight does make you look older and its tough to see that for yourself.

I was MEGA - SIZED before; now I'm just a heavy gal. I hope to report back to this thread this time next year and report that I've re-lost those 10 lbs and another 40 or 50. Then I'll be sex-ay.

Do you have a naturally thin face, MMead? If I get below a certain weight, I get all kinds of comments about looking too thin because I tend to lose too much in my face.

I should compliment you on reaching your goals and more importantly, maintaining them. So kudos for that. But 5-11 and 150? Heh. You can safely add on 20 pounds but that depends on what you are. If you are a biker/triathelete, I can see that. I say it's ok to have that pie ala mode once a week now.

I'm not a biker or triathlete, but I do run a lot and it keeps me lean. I also limit the fat I eat (no red meat or pork). While I don't eat pie ala mode, I did have some pumpkin mousse pie yesterday that was awesome and low in fat! If I can get the nerve to do it, I may post a before and after pic.

You brought that subject up. I just responded to it. So, take that Susan Powter-esque advice and shove it up your fat ass. Maybe people insult you not for being "too skinny" but literally because you're still a c.unt despite losing all that weight. :c\ I suspect they don't want to be so rude as to call you a c.unt.

Congrats! There is reverse discrimination, true. Problem is, we so often meet people who are extremely thin who only manage it by being unhealthy, so people jump to conclusions. It's very rude of people you meet to say shit to you when they don't know how you're living and eating. When you see runway models walking the streets of New York, then you know what a real unhealthy weight looks like. Egads, they look like holocaust victims. But I used to keep that observation to myself.

Oh, and monounsaturated fats are necessary for you. I did know of someone who messed themselves up by cutting out all fat, so do include some olive oil etc. And Tres--congratulations! You are inspiring me. Time to take another attempt.

Congratulations!!! That's a good amount of weight. You're taking it off the right way too. Slowly but surely. If you lose it too fast you gain it back but some. Congrats to you too MM. It's great that you've lost it and kept it off. I've lost 73 in the past 1 1/2 years. I did gain some back (about 8) but I've lost it again. I am now almost down to the weight I was when my son died. I gained that weight in a little over a year from depression eating. I still have more to go but I'm happy to be where I am right now. I'd be happy with losing just 17 more pounds, but my ultimate goal is losing about 31to 37 more pounds. Whoever wrote that that about 100 pounds for 5 feet plus 5 more pounds per inch---that would not work for me at all. I have a large body frame. I'd look like a skeleton.

Ramona & Shaqnanigans... thanks for the supporting facts. I followed my doctor's advice through this whole process. My dad died of a heart attack at age 55! He was not obese, but was overweight and ate whatever he wanted. That was what motivated my to be healthy. I was literally following in his footsteps. I made sure that everything I did, from the diet to the exercising, was done in a healthy way. I am not skin and bones. I have muscle tone. There is no mistaking me for a meth head or holocaust victim.
