Not only that, but the hubby and I only implemented these changes a couple of weeks ago, and [healthy] weight loss takes time and dedication.

I'm not making excuses; I'm exercising the best I can right now. Perhaps when I've gotten my muscles up to speed, then I can start to run. [I don't like the idea of jogging, but running I could probably do.]

Oh, it does?
You're telling me?
The one who was hot before and decided to be even hotter and healthily lose 15 pounds?
You're telling ME it takes time and dedication?
The person who eats right and exercises every day?

Just checking.
I'll repeat--get off your ass.

What you are doing is a joke. Walking 20 minutes a day WON'T DO ANYTHING.

[Solumina]

Tam if you only have 20 min to work out then switch to weights, 20 min of walking will not work. If you can't run because of joint strain then try running on an elliptical or use a bike.

[Tam Li Hua]

Solumina: I beg to differ; it actually seems to be working rather well. That being said, I've considered investing in some good weights, but aren't they pretty expensive?

Ophie: I never said I wanted to be "hotter". If that was my goal, then I would exploit the twins for all they are worth.

Way to completely miss the point, idiot.

[Tam Li Hua]

Ophie, unless you have some exercise technique ideas [other than telling me "GET OFF YOUR ASS!!"], some healthy recipes to share, or even just some encouragement to offer, then I really don't care to read your ranting.

*puts Ophie on ignore for a while. Again.*

Seriously, go for a walk or whatever it is you do to calm down.

[Godslayer Jillian]

"Way to completely miss the point, idiot." isn't a rant.

[Tam Li Hua]

Nope, it's a blatant insult, but if you read back a bit further, you'll see that Ophie -has- been ranting.

Are you fucking kidding?
I gave you a detailed idea already.
I also even told you that your current method isn't going to work.
You claim it is, but how much weight have you lost in the past month?

You just didn't bother doing it.

THIS IS THE RANT THREAD, YOU IDIOT.
Christ.

But no, this works. Distract yourself from the fact that you're doing nothing to improve your situation despite owning a computer and having all the information you need to improve it.
Yeah, this'll work just fine.

Quoting this so that it's visible. Either Tam can read it or she puts me on ignore.
Win/win.

[Underwater Ophelia]

It really bothers me when people have ALL the information and resources they need, but don't fucking doing anything to fix themselves.

Then they go ahead and bitch about it.

Wah wah, I'm fat!
I should stop reading fashion magazines because those women make me feel bad!

No. YOU make you feel bad.

[Underwater Ophelia]

Thanks, GJ.

Meowmeowmeow, same drill.

I -am- doing something. Why you keep insisting that I'm not is beyond me.

So you've never been frustrated with your appearance?

Wah wah, I'm fat!

Well, they -are- a rather unrealistic image of what people are supposed to look like.

No. YOU make you feel bad.

Technically, I suppose you're right, since my own self-esteem tends to get blown away by staring at these terribly skinny folks all the time.

[Tam Li Hua]

By the way, Jilly, I can still read Ophie's posts if I want to without you quoting them.

[Godslayer Jillian]

Which I assumed you won't, because otherwise it would be stupid to put her on ignore.

In any case, the whole thing is that you say you hate your body, so Ophelia tells you to exercise, and you say [here's the operative] you are doing your best which it seems you don't.
Yeah, you can rant in the rant thread because you don't like your body and you are making your best to change that but it's still annoying to wait for changes, but AREN'T doing your best if you only are on a fucking treadmill for 20+ minutes.

I want to weigh more but I'm not actually doing anything about it. Wouldn't you consider it idiotic if I complained about this then?

[Tam Li Hua]

You shouldn't assume things so easily Jilly. After all, I thought you were a girl when I first returned to Gnet, just based on your name.

Well, it's been fun kids, but it's my bedtime.

Because you aren't doing anything.
Walking 20 minutes a day isn't going to do anything. I know this.
If you don't believe me, read the post where Solumina said it.
Is it more true when she says it?

Sure I am.
I was, actually.
Then I did something about it.
You know, instead of just bitching on the internet.

Actually, many of them aren't.
And once again, that wasn't my point.
My point was that them looking good isn't the problem. It's you looking bad.

But it -does- do something; I've been losing weight, and I feel tons better. How long do you recommend I walk? Or, do you have some specific, different exercises in mind?

Sure I am.
I was, actually.

I was feeling discouraged. I don't know why it offended you so, but you really need to let it go.

Actually, many of them aren't.

That's the thing, though; I -don't- look bad. My issue is more with what the scale says I weigh whenever I step on it, and also the fact that I want to go down a few dress sizes so I can wear the clothes that I bought that I love so much.

As far as my boobs go, I've -always- hated them, even when I was a skinny teen; they're just ridiculous, and I'm tired of them. A nice B or C would be cool, but G is just not fair, and I've been told by nutritionists that even if I exercise the hell out of myself, they won't go down in size -that- much without surgery. :/

Alright, I'm sorry for assuming you were smart enough to understand the point of the ignore function.
Now I know better and know that you, just like CCT, are an idiotic bitch that tells people they're on their ignore list which either is false or useless because you will still click on all the 'ignored' posts because you're too fucking weak to keep to your word.

Better?

[Tam Li Hua]

I think you care a bit too much about how I [and others] use the ignore feature, Jilly. If you don't like what the admins have set up for it, then take it up with them.

[Underwater Ophelia]

Tam, it's not up to me to tell you exercises.
YOU HAVE THE INTERNET.

[Godslayer Jillian]

I don't know why I keep giving Tam so much credit. Being a condescending cunt and pretending her idiotic use of ignore is somehow my or the admins' fault?
Christ.

[Underwater Ophelia]

She's also, for some reason, under the impression that it's my responsibility to tell her how to exercise.
