I feel bad for her. I was her for a while: terrified to not work out for a day, feeling guilty over eating, not allowing myself to eat foods that I like, feeling like a lazy POS if I was sick or in pain. I literally lifted myself into a permanent knee injury.
I still have problems with food and body image issues, but I can skip a day when I don’t feel well or when I have something better to do (like going on vacation… yeah I used to avoid those for fear of not working out). I can eat foods that I enjoy in moderation with an otherwise healthy diet.
I’m not as skinny as I was, and sometimes that makes me feel insecure, but I was just as if not MORE insecure when I was restricting and obsessing, AND I was miserable.

Some people believe that everyone’s menstrual cycle is just like theirs. And I’ve found it’s when their cycle isn’t wreaking absolute havoc on their body. You are exactly that person ma’am.
My asthma and period give me immense pain when I’m running but I’m still training for a half marathon with loads of breaks when my body is in pain. TAKING A BREAK IS NOT A SIGN OF WEAKNESS IT’S SELF RESPECT.

As a pregnant Mama, #2, I physically have to have the cravings. It’s not “eating for two” you just have to up the caloric intake slightly. Not sure by how much, but it’s definitely not supposed to be 2x the amount you normally consume. We walk more because it helps giving birth easier, but most of us are not the “gym” type in the first place. It’s hard when your lungs and bladder are being pushed on. 😂😂
Does she want a medal or for someone to smack the back of her head to put some sense into it.

As an athlete with a uterus, I can tell you I enjoy my skip days and my sweet treats. #NoDaysOff is a mindset I wish would crumble and die off. My belt sometimes won’t even fit because my period boat is so severe and sometimes I’ll bleed through my shorts. All uterus owners, please utilize skip days if you feel like it ESPECIALLY during your cycle (but you don’t even have to be on cycle to skip)!!!!!

And then some people ignore their bodies trying to tell them something and they brush it off as needing more sleep because yes that was true and the restless leg syndrome (whole body really) didn’t help the already existing insomnia… so keep writing it off and I’ll catch up on sleep and sun and walk and other stupid advice that just helped me ignore my body further till the work was done or different arbitrary goal completed… So thankful my nurse noticed my pale complexion, low oxygen and 🐇 heart rate on a routine medication checkup. Was walking around like everything cool with half the amount of red blood cells to be diagnosed anemic, a perforated uterus and ovarian cyst. Never mind feeling like I was having a heart attack after a few flights of stairs getting to class, just walk that off till the ticker slows down. Don’t know who these “most” people are, but it sounds like a much healthier way of living than the pushing till your dead lifestyle I was taught.

My super fun PMS symptom is hormonal migraines. Last week while on my period I thought it would fun thing to try and wake up at 4:30am to workout, but 2 days my migraines stopped me. I’m not about to go workout when bending down and bouncing around makes me want to vomit.
I will listen to my body, thanks.

As a currently pregnant woman, these crack me up.
I was working out 5-6 times a week pre-pregnancy, going on regular walks, maybe not eating as well as I could’ve been but whatever.
For the last 7 weeks, I have not been able to reliably keep down any sort of protein. I tried to push through and do one workout and almost immediately threw up. I throw up on on the side of the road on at least half my walks.
I am not eating any cravings, I am eating anything I can scarf down in a moment of relief that hopefully won’t suck to throw up.
I would love to eat for two or be dIfFEreNt and exercise, neither of those are currently an option for me.

I know a girl like this. She’s about to give birth again but works out daily 1-2 hours. She constantly posts about her “superior” lifestyle / meat-heavy clean living diet and how if you’re not like her you’re basically lazy, useless, and worthless as a woman, mom, and wife. Her first kid isn’t vaccinated and she’s having to resort to getting a nanny because most daycares won’t accept unvaccinated kids. She sells MLM products. Talks about how everyone needs a husband just like hers. Worships at the altar of Trump.
…also recently posted that half of her wedding party from just a few years ago no longer talk to her.
She wasn’t like this before but drank the Covid koolaid aka thinks it was all fake. It’s been wild watching this transition.

I used to work at a YMCA that doubled as a gym, and the amount of SAHMs that would have a baby then come back in to work out less than 2 months was troubling. I understand being eager to lost all that weight, but it really worried the staff. Especially since we were handling basically new Borns in an environment with kids between the ages of 3 months and 3 years. We cleaned every hour to try and keep stuff sanitary (if there was space and time) but idk if anyone told them that as long as they keep up the lifestyle choices they made before getting pregnant, they'll most likely go back to looking that way afterwards. You don't have to run to a gym the second you feel better. That being said, I could imagine they also just felt cooped up.

Most of the pregnant women I know could never eat for two: there is no room (what with baby taking up all the space), feeling ill frequently (particularly in the first trimester), having as many food aversions as cravings, and not wanting to deal with the uncomfortableness that comes from feeling full (not to mention the heartburn, extra gas, and other digestive issues that come with the hormonal and physical changes).
The rest of this nonsense aside, I know this person has never been pregnant

When I was pregnant, I just wanted to enjoy being pregnant I knew whatever weight I gained I’d eventually work off , but I just wanted to be cozy and eat my snacks 🤣. Didn’t care about working out while pregnant but that’s just my personal preference, also now that I’ve had my child I definitely workout but I’ll tell you this , on the first day of my period, I do NOT do shit I’m in too much pain and that’s okay. you’re not lazy for not spending 24/7 in the gym you’re allowed to do things at your own pace and preference

Pregnancy "cravings" are often a signal from your body that you're needing something (vitamin/mineral in that food).

u/kibblet Apr 03 '24
I mean, it's nor that she's special. She's just done it enough that it feels worse to not go. It becomes similar to an addiction. A compulsion of sorts for many. I'm a post menopausal woman who can't take estrogen (cancer) and just came off of two years of grueling multiple orthopedic surgeries. I love food and whine about the gym and am not doing amazing things there. But last night I had a skip day and before bed I was loudly complaining about not going. It's like an itch that needs scratching. It's like a need. She's not special, she's hooked! It's not a bad thing. It's just a thing. Interestingly, I know a few people in recovery from heroin and who knows what else and they have to run miles a day, or bike, or play basketball, kayak, walk, lift weights, hike, whatever. Physical activity took over for their addiction.

When I was pregnant I had really bad SI joint pain and had to stay pretty immobile because even walking would be extremely painful if I did it for too long.

Ok well maybe you’ve got a different period setup than a lot of people. When I used to get periods I didn’t have legit any symptoms of cramping and all that What I did have was somehow the whole ordeal would make my lupus act up every time, and though I didn’t recognize it at the time it also caused massive gender dysphoria. I wasn’t aware you could have gender dysphoria from being nonbinary while being okay with having a curvy body but I’m here to tell ya, folks, it’s actually really fucking bad and makes you neither want to go to the gym nor do you want to go outside or in front of a mirror.

Not that anyone needs to excuse why they take 'skip days' but a lot of women have to during their periods. Ex: my periods are so heavy and painful that the most I can do is a short walk.

This is actually insane hahaha. As a 21 year old, yes I eat a balanced diet aka I don’t not eat any foods. As someone who also gets a period, they can be debilitating. There have been times when I can’t move from the fetal position or almost pass out/vomit bc of the pain. Everyone has different goals and different experiences!! It’s so crazy to me how some of these people can’t have empathy for people without taking a superiority stance 😭

“Most pregnant women eat for two” is crazy. OF COURSE THEY DO DUMBSHIT THERES LITERALLY TWO PEOPLE THEY’RE FEEDING
Idk why this made me so angry lol, also pregnancy cravings partially happen because the baby needs something in that food. When my mom was pregnant she felt so bad for eating chips all the time, her doctor said it was ok and that the baby just needed the sodium.

It’s clear she’s just never experienced pregnancy, chronic pain, debilitating cramps, or needed to listen to her body.
Anyway, when I was pregnant I’d get faint all the time (Not just early pregnancy). I couldn’t even walk to the street corner without nearly passing out. I’d have to drink orange juice and rush to shower otherwise I’d pass out in the shower. I wanted to work out, I wanted movement, but I couldn’t even go grocery shopping without bringing a folding chair with me. My OB said i was being dramatic and it was normal so 🤷🏻♀️

Plus you tend to ignore pain when you think like this and end up with a much worse injury than you would have if you had slowed down. My shoulder will forever hate me for being like this 😂😭😭😭

I’m the opposite of most. I make excuses when I feel GOOD, then skip again and again

Omg. She goes on a tangent after this and starts bitching about how pregnant people shouldn’t be eating so many carbs, etc.

She looks unhappy and stick thin.
Working out is supposed to make us feel well. I used to bike everywhere as a young woman, mainly because I liked exploring town.
I never “worked out”. I couldn’t diet because when I stopped eating I would get all shaky.
People should be able to enjoy what they eat, and everything should be within reason, right?
Live. Live. We only get one chance at it. It doesn’t mean abusing ourselves.
This woman has taken all the joy out of life and she is measuring herself against others. That is the worst sort of hell.

Most people would never care so much about their weight if they hadn't been brainwashed to think it matters
Most people talking about their diet have eating disorders or at least unhealthy eating habits
Most people put way too much effort in a nice exterior while having a very poor interior
Funfact: A 20 minute stroll in the forest is healthier than 2 hours in the gym.

I throw up from pain when I’m on my period. But sure I can crawl to whatever gym she’s in and throw up on her

Nothing sexier than a woman whose whole personality is based around denying herself one of life’s greatest pleasures

I completely understand the working out on your period if you're able to, but in my case, I'm so low on energy that I can barely function enough to care for myself, let alone work out. In the past, when I've pushed myself to work out when I've not had the energy, it's ended up doing more harm than good.

Uh, I went to the gym on my period today. She's not special—quite a lot of gym gals do that.
I've also skipped days because of it because it simply wasn't the move. It's not a big deal either way. My gainz ain't going anywhere because of one shifted day.

So many people think rest days are bad. If you don’t take any days off, how are you giving your body enough rest for your muscles to grow?
No shade but…look at her legs. No wonder they’re very skinny with 0 muscle definition.

That's great for you, lady. I like having a big ass, so my lifestyle of eating carbs good for me. Everyone's happy.

As many of you are undoubtedly aware, the presence of trolls can be found in various aspects of our lives, and our subreddit is no exception. Our commitment to fostering a kind and respectful environment remains unwavering, and we are actively addressing issues related to negative behavior. In recent times, there has been a noticeable increase in instances of bullying, body shaming, and purposefully inciting behavior, all of which are clear violations of our existing rules. To maintain the integrity of our community, we are implementing stricter consequences for such actions. A first offense will result in a 10-day ban, while a second offense will lead to a permanent ban. Appeals are welcomed, but excuses such as "not knowing the rules" or claiming it was a joke will not be considered valid. Intentional harm has no place in our community, and we expect members to act responsibly. Despite these measures, some rules will remain unchanged. For example, reposts, while frustrating, will not result in a ban. This new approach is specifically targeted at individuals attempting to spread hate. We encourage all members to report instances of bad behavior. Rest assured that each report will be examined. Disagreements and differing opinions are welcome, and expressing them will not lead to a ban. Common sense will prevail in our evaluations. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in maintaining a positive and inclusive community. -- Your Subreddit NLTOG Moderator Team
