Lost progress

Post Reply New Topic

I'm sad. I've been trying to lose weight all summer but only lost 4 pounds. Then I checked the scale this morning and found that I gained two back. I started to cry, family yells at me, I cry more, they yell more, etc. What's with NTs being so damn insensitive? They know how important it is to me but why do they act like my being sad is the worst thing ever? I could have turned out a lot worse than a fat aspie girl who can't drive. I could be an attractive NT with 9 STD's. Just saying. :/

You are beautiful. You don't need to conform to any unnatural idea of beauty

Thanks but I'm just trying to get to a healthy weight - not anorexic weight. I need to drop 100 pounds to get to a healthy size, which is already a daunting task as it is. I don't have room for any backtracking. It's gonna be a looong 2 years at this rate.

It is quite possible they yell because of their own frustration over not knowing how to comfort you, and as coupled with their inability to understand why anyone would be upset by a couple of pounds that could easily represent nothing more than just a quart of water.

Because I've made such little progress over the summer, I need to keep as much weight off as humanly possible. D:

I've tried telling them to just let me cry and I'll get it out of my system. It's a stress release. By attributing to the stress level, I'm gonna cry longer to relieve the stress. It makes sense, right?

That's not fair. You should really be supported more.

I think so too. That's why I love it at college, my friends are more supportive than my own damn family. :/

WP is good like that too.
