B*TCHFest: My head is exploding!
For you NEW KIDS, HERE ARE THE RULES:
"B*TCHFest" is provided as a public service to those of us who have gripes and grievances but who (whom?), for whatever reason, lack a regular forum in which to air them. You are welcome to voice any problems - large or small, important, mundane or ridiculous - that currently have your panties wadded, your shorts frosted and your gears ground. Don't hold them in and risk future medical issues, wrinkles and/or those pesky gray hairs.
ANY and ALL issues that are plaguing you are open for you to voice; there are no "sacred cows." They say that "feelings aren't facts", so if you're feeling it, it's legit to you. NO ONE is allowed to flame a poster for something he or she writes, however commiseration is not only welcomed but encouraged. Please, no personal attacks against other OH members (at least, not by name) and ABSOLUTELY NO SURGERY WARS!
I'll start you off with a few gripes of mine, and you all can join in at any time! No limits - come back as many times as you like!
WARNING! Adult content ahead! Posts may (and probably will) contain "adult" content and language. I know that MINE will. Rated TV-MA.
I was going to take a pass on the B*TCHFest this week, out of respect for all that's gone on in Japan, and how we really, really don't have things so bad. But then I saw this bull**** Tickets at Radio City are 79-109 dollars, but he IS donating a dollar from every ticket to Tsunami relief. So there's that.
Charlie Sheen adds 5 more shows to 'Torpedo of Truth' tour
Dripping with tiger blood and coursing with warlock power, fired "Two and a Half Men" star Charlie Sheen has announced five more stops on his tour, "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not An Option Show."
The first two shows -- Chicago and Detroit -- sold out in minutes. The newly announced shows will bring the tour to Cleveland, Columbus, Ohio; New York, Wallingford, Connecticut, and Boston.
What can fans expect? Apparently lots of questions.
"Will there be surprises? Will there be guests? Will there be mayhem? Will you ask questions? Will you laugh? Will you scream? Will you know the truth? WILL THERE BE MORE?!?!" the actor's website CharlieSheen.com says.
Sheen also makes a promise in the midst of the questions.
"This IS where you will hear the REAL story from the Warlock. Bring it. I dare you to keep up with me."
Sheen, 45, has been known for his highly publicized marital, legal and substance abuse problems as much as his acting. Lately he has been known for a bizarre series of rants, especially on his immensely popular Twitter account that logged 2.8 million followers in a few week's time.
Warner Bros fired Sheen from "Two and a Half Men" last week after he conducted a long-running rant against the show's producers.
When I'm done vomiting, I may come back for more *****ing, but right now I just don't have the strength. So . . . YOUR TURN!
1. I've been stuck in the 130s for a month; no scale this wee****il Sunday. PRAYING it has moved. I want to see something below 132.2lbs so badly!!
2. A coworker (male/early 40s maybe) came up to me this morning and said "so are you where want to be yet? I hope so" and I was like no, I have 12lbs or so left until I hit my goal. And he goes ohh okay I mean you look great now but I'm not sure you would in 12lbs. Just remember the cake button. (or something of that nature; I was ignoring him by that point)
All I can say to that is what the HELL, and a nice SCREW YOU Of course I did not, but deep inside I was tempted. Maybe he can shove the "cake button" up his...you know ;)
I've been pretty good feeling this week otherwise..

I think someone needs to throw a net over Charlie Sheen and shoot him with elephant tranquilizers. Then a few electroshock sessions, and finally an IV lithium drip while he's forced to watch videos of himself.

I'm frustrated with my scale today if I could pick the damn thing up and toss out the window it would be laying outside by my camper right now and then I would take a hammer with me and go pound the **** out of it lol.
I have been stuck between 307 and 309 since the 25Th of Feb I just keep bouncing between them two numbers and I'm so tired of it.
I keep losing the same two pounds over and over again each week.
I thought okay go time to look at my food journal and see where I can cut back even had a friend look at it for a different set of eyes .
I'm looking good there. I eat no more then 1100 calories a day , I'm staying in the range of 30-60 carbs per day , no more then 50 grams of fat per day *sigh*.
I do Zumba Monday nights for a hr the Curves circuit with Zumba T, Th, and Sat . So now going to pick up a Zumba class starting tonight hubby is going to love this , I'm already spending money on two different classes now adding a third at a different place. *sigh*.
But Zumba has become my addiction now I just love it and money really isn't a issue I just feel guilty cause I'm not use to spending money on myself.
Anyhoo, I go back to my doc on the 28Th of this month and if I only show a 2 pound lose that damn nurse is going to insist giving me a fill. I'm not sure how my doc will say about this cause I have always lost more then 7 pounds per visit not two or at least that is what it would be if I dont lose anymore :o(
I wi**** would so easy that a fill would fix. That I'm eating more then I should, I'm getting hungry in a hr or 2 hrs but that just isn't the case *sigh*. I can eat my cup of food and still go a good 3-5 hrs at a time so I dont think I need a fill if I can go that long and to be honest I think a fill would make me upchuck everything back up if I can go that long right now without eating .
This is always the part of my diets that I would quit and get frustrated at. I watch what I eat , I exercise my ass off and nothing on the scales .
I know check clothes sizing and all that , and how do your clothes feel , but that scale to me gives me a atta girl you did good this week because you can see your progress as you move your slider down the scale .
Everybody around me says go get a fill go get a fill you haven't had one yet, they just dont understand I dont need one wi**** was that easy though .
I'm just plain ole stuck at these stupid numbers lol.

Maybe you need to eat more? I too was doing 1200 a day and then my weightloss came to a halt. I've since upped to 1500 and will weigh myself Sunday to see. I used a pretty-well known equation to figure out the amount of calories I should be eating. If you want PM me, I'll shoot it your way. I don't want to thread hijack.

That is what I was thinking to Reverie I though gosh Im a 300 pound girl and just eating anywhere from 800-1200 calories a day dont seem very much especially when you add the exercise in .
I have asked about that everybody keeps telling me the same thing with the band you dont need to eat that many calories.
I know that dailyplate and sparknet both have me at 2100 calories a day with my weight and height but gosh I know I dont need that much lol.

I'd try eating 1500-1600 for a week; I bet the scale moves. You may think you don't need that many calories, but your body does. Average body needs 600 calories to function (more when you're heavier) That's half of your calories gone. You're working out as well, which is more calories burned. I'd try going up a little calorie wise. Start off slow.
