Quoting i ♥ bacon:“ Thanks for the people who gave me real advice. My Avi is an inside joke.   So glad people can call me a pig and make me feel worse.”

I totally forgot this was my name on here   I probably would have changed it if I realized it.

awwwwwwwwe i dont think you took the easy way out. you did it for your health. some ppl need extra help and you should never be ashamed of that. you are now healthy andyou may be suffering from side affects but i believe you did it for all the right reasons. I wish i could get a tummy tuck. Im ok with not having the flat abs i just wanna be able to wear a op and my tummy not look so much bigger then my other body parts. Im shrinking but my belly still looks 3 mth pregnant sheesh dont think this will ever go away. the past 2 days ive been really sick feel like im dying. ive lost 4 pds in 2 days. im 140 now. i was 200 5 mths ago when i gave birth. i was tiny my whole life 118 before kids so 200 was alot of weight for my barely 5'2 frame. its wierd when im sick i lose weight. i keep it off too. i havnt worked out in 2 day its been hell for me with 2 kids to take care of while so is at work too.

it doesn't matter what your avi is. no body has a right to say the things that were said. I think if you try diet and exercise and nothing works then i would go get my thyroid tested because so many people are hypothyroid and don't even know it. i found out i had hypothyroidism in may (very very severe) and then i finally lost the weight. i delivered at 184 lb and then at my 6 week apt i was 175 lb which was very depressing then i dieted like crazy no more then 1200 cal a day and went to the gym for 2 hours each day (elliptical machine at it highest incline and highest resist) and only went down to 153 lb in 5 months. I was also breast feeding. i was sure the weight would never come off. i found out my tsh level was 33 and the highest range of normal was 5. after taking the meds and continuing my work out and diet i went down to 133 by the end of august and with eating pretty much what ever i want and not exercising as much if at all i am down to 128 lb now and still losing. i would get a whole work up at the doctors office and make sure it is not a medical problem then if every thing is okay i would ask my doctor for a diet and work out plan. good luck!!

I personally said it as a joke not making fun of you in ANY way..I wasn't even lookin at ur avi like oh she eats bacon all day everyday I knew it was probably a joke ..

I wish I could help you though but i can't even work out myself or go on any diets... The one thing I know is that if you eat late at night I know that can really make u gain weight or at least make it harder to loose. Try cutting out late night meals and SODAS.. they are the devil.

none of us called OP a pig or made fun of her....we joked about the bacon name. Come one people we werent cutting her down we were having fun with her avi!!!

I'm on the gymnastics team at my school. So I do that 2 times a week sometimes 3 for a few hours. But I think I'll start hitting the gym and eating less. I don't eat bad I just eat a lot.

You know my Mom is forever trying to diet too and she always goes to the store and buys tons of fruit. She will eat really healthy and when she snacks she eats fruits but like I tell her, just because youre eating good doesnt mean you wont gain weight. Fruit and stuff is good but you have to eat it in moderation too because its natural sugar but still sugar. Its better than candy or greasey stuff but still. It has to be a balance of calories in vs. calories out! You could eat donuts all day long if you are sure to burn them all off!
