All this girl wants to do is whine and make excuses instead of seeking real lhelp. That's starting to become a tireless trend here in the love & dating forum. :roll:


Well there's the simple fact that you have chosen to jeopardise your health, and therefore are in no position to criticise anyone who is making any effort to improve theirs.

I'm not suprised most americains struggle with maintaining a healthy body mass. It simply is not easy to access healthy fresh food at all in the states. And the size of your portions are ridiculous all of you need some serious Portion Control Therapy enforced by the government ASAP 8O

Plus your health profession seems all too eager to hook up people with ASD's ADHD etc on medication which leads to weight gain and increased insulin resistance. I mean WTF its quick buck for the drug manufacturers but its a long term health crisis for the majority of your population to have type 2 diabeties

Why should I feel bad for a "hormonal" girl who can't watch what she's eating. Plus every fat person says that line of crap - it ain't true.


People are overweight for different reasons. A small number are compulsive eaters, most simply have had, at some point in their life, poor eating habits/life style habits, and some have medical conditions which make it difficult to anticipate the number of calories one needs on a regular basis, or experienced an injury or illness which limited their mobility and they found it difficult to find a new caloric equilibrium.

If your metabolism fluctuates significantly it can be very difficult not to gain weight. People with Cushing's Syndrome can gain weight on 1,000 calories a day. Since most individuals with Cushings Syndrome are overweight, I do not think it reasonable to assume that it would be easy not to gain weight if you have this disorder.

A person with hypothyroidism can also gain weight with a low caloric intake, and very quickly because most individuals with hypothyroidism have auto-immune hypothyroidism where their metabolism is not stable. Again, since most individuals with this condition gain weight, I don't think it reasonable to assume that you would not.

And then, medications such as SSRI's are notorious for causing weight gain. Some of them actually change the bodies metabolism and causes it to produce more fat, while others cause an increase in appetite, while some do both.

Most individuals do not count their calories. They gauge do a qualitative analysis based on how hungry they are. Hunger is ultimately controlled by the hypothalamus, which isn't always in sync with other areas of the brain and the body.

Most people who are of average weight only have good communication between their hypothalamus and everything else to thank for it.

1) That is not the same thing at all.

2) The OP isn't even trying to help herself which makes your argument void.

Look, I have been helping myself, all right? I have been eating more vegetables and grilled meats instead of starches and fried foods. All I'm saying is that I'm frustrated that the results aren't what I expected.

To you shallow guys- Get lost. You're the reason most girls are depressed or commit suicide. I hope you feel good about yourselves.

Celexa may be the problem. If you google celexa weight gain, you'll see what I mean. But on the good side, once you are able to stop taking it (and hopefully you will be able to at some point), it will get a lot easier to lose weight.

I figured that may have been the culprit. When I was just on Adderall, I was fine. I weight at 140, in fact. Hmmm... *strokes chin* I has ideas. :D

Guys with AS tend to care less about looks. I want to date a girl who not too fat because when I get married, I want a wife who will teach my kids healthy eating habbits, and I want to know that she will agree to healthy foods when we grow grocery shopping.

I've dated probably 3 girls over 200lbs, I've dated one girl under 100lbs, and the majority I date are between 140-190.

Also, probably not a good idea to go off adderall. If you do things will likely get worse, two of my ex's blamed going off adderall for their weight.

Well, she lives in PA like I do, dont know what secion, but one good thing about the state is that its pretty much a "agricultural state" for the most part. very easy to find fresh vegetables among other things. I go to the farmers market whenever possible to stock up on vegetables. Id rather support agriculture in my local area/state then go to a supermarket and buy stuf f that was transported cross-country/cross nation (although certain foods you have no choice but to really, such as mangoes and oranges.)

In that case then diet isn't the issue.

Also stop calling us all shallow and trying to guilt trip us just because we are not saying what you want to hear, it's pathetic. Grow Up!

Yeah, its kinda been weird that I have been very much less confrontational lately on these forums, so yeah I dunno. So yeah Erisad, I normally am not as Amicable and friendly as I have been when trying to give ya advice today. It is wearing thin though mostly because of Bugzee, the reasons are obvious. If someone genuinely wants help you shouldnt just be an a**hole and rip them to shreds entirely. Your just gonna make said individual feel how much worse which knowing from my experience with AS can cause people to simply withdraw and become totally inactive, or even harm themselves. So really Bugzee, I suggest you tone it the f**k down. I dont need to be an ass right now but I can, especiallly when someone tells you to lay the f**k off but your too ignorant to.

I'm towards Harrisburg. I try to eat well by cooking everything myself. Of course, when my grandmother insists on cooking, I have to let her sometimes, it's her house. But she makes the most fattening things ever. I try telling her that I want to lose weight, she agrees and then continues to make the same food as if I never said anything. :/

I am still not following you. What does that have to do with being overweight and not getting dates for it. I am confused by the point your trying to make.

Yes, some people are overweight because of conditions out of their control, but that's not the majority =- most people are fat because of their poor eating habits. And Cushings Syndrome is rare, so that's a bad example to support your argument.
