just being poor has caused me to not eat much for about five years now and it paid off…I am below 200…( 198 ) but it makes me really happy to be under 200! now just 30 more pounds and I will be at my perfect weight. I am sorry if this sounds like boasting but I am just in disbelief it finally happened…

Good for you @jukebox!
I’m headed going under 200 lbs at this rate.
My stomach is seriously ■■■■■■ up and I’m losing weight rapidly!
I was 218lbs a little over 3 weeks ago and now I weigh 208 lbs!

Guys, guys,
Its great you’re losing weight and all,
But saying stuff like ‘I’m poor so I’m losing weight’ and ‘my stomach is fckd so I’m losing weight’ is not good AT ALL.
Dont damage your health to take care of it.

No in my case it’s not a good thing.
I wasn’t bragging @anon57786250.
My weight loss is unhealthy and extreme.
I do realize this.

Sorry @Wave,
The way you wrote your sentence made me think you were happy about what’s going with you.
My apologies.

No @anon57786250 I’m not happy at all.
It’s ok I understand.

My dad is also losing weight because he can’t afford to eat enough. It makes me sad that he’s not closer. We may not have a lot, but we get three square meals a day, and I’d gladly feed him, too. I’m glad you’re losing weight @jukebox, but I’m sorry it’s because of this.

Hope you guys get your weight under control,
I’m still working on mine. I’m free of nicotine so that’s in the right direction I guess.

we’ve learned to eat much better but still in small portions…every morning it’s eggaritos with shredded cheddar cheese melted into the scrambled eggs with pickled jalapenos mixed in…fry up tortillas one a piece and slide the egg mixture into the tortilla…simple and so good…cheap meals…
@shutterbug I empathize with you…when I had a lot of money (we thought) I cooked every night some ham with rum glaze or jambalaya or gumbo or steaks or fried chicken…always something expensive to make…that’s when I peaked out at 360.
the temptation to eat like that when you can afford it is hard…good luck

I once lost 14 pounds in 2.5 days due to illness. Try to take it in stride. I believe that you will have answers, soon.
My PMs are open.
