What's the biggest problem in your life?

I eat 1500 calories a day and still gain weight. It's absurd. Going to have to cut it back to 1200 I guess.

People, they are just everywhere.

Everything is unfolding perfectly.

Good, bad and ugly.

The hardest thing most days is making the decision to make the necessary decisions.

Your body is probably storing energy as fat because it needs too so cutting back in calories is having a negative affect. Forget about calories and just look societies that have naturally thin bodies (Asians etc). They eat smaller meals more often when the body is working and less food at night when the body isn't working. So the body doesn't need to store energy in the form of fat. It knows energy will be available on tap.

List for me the biggest problems in YOUR daily lives.....

I lost a leg last year to complications of cancer.
I'm just happy to have a life.
Everyday that I don't fall down is a good day.

Your unconquerable soul is mind blowing. Thank you for sharing, lifted me.

1. Forced to live in a society that creates more laws that make repeated offenders felons.

2. Forced to live with a felon and act as an unpaid probation officer or risk becoming imprisoned myself.

3. Forced to live in a society that believes guns protect them and not the Father through Jesus Christ.

4. Forced to live in a society that seems to respect people who have money and titles or those who can offer the alcohol or drugs.

5. Forced to buy cheap products, most made by machines.

6. Forced to live among people who operate machines that do the labor who are still worn out and genuinely physically damaged from operating the machinery/robotics and watching them/us all slowly die.

7. Forced to live next to a hospital where hundreds of young and old are dying slow painful deaths.

8. Forced to live next to a courthouse and jail that have a hypocritical justice system.

9. Forced because there is no better place to go to without the money to do so.

10. Forced to live with a human who had no empathy for my father when he lay dying. Then when he died, no empathy for me when I grieved his death.

11. Forced to save other human's lives, who would never save mine.

12. Forced to under go sexual abuse that involved mind control using radio wave frequencies and other technogy as a child in the late 70's, early 80's by professional educators who worked out of the Monterey County Office of Education. Other children were involved but were seperated. One at the age of 25, tried to seek justice through the court but was denied it due to a 7 year statue of limitation in the state of CA. Forced to continue to be plagued with conspiracy therory headlines revealing other adults and children went through or are going through the same thing and there doesn't seem to be a way to bring the perpetrators to justice as they hide and/or cover for each other.

13. Forced to live on a prison planet that prevents full ET disclosure.

14. Forced to live in ugly housing.

15. Compelled to make things cleaner or prettier or better and no one notices, minimizes it or takes it for granted.

16. Compelled to forgive, be empathetic and love unconditionally.

A poster on another forum I was lurking said in part that the negative spirit fishings in social media are actually spells. Others are using others to get people thinking negatively to bring in their goals, a new cycle, with a negative harvest. This is law of attraction spell casting. It's engaging negative emotions in people. Posts are designed to get emotions involved.

A good defense is to be aware of what your problems really are and not reacting, and then start praying, meditating and imagining a better world, and that the posters and others wake up more and walk away from the negativity and just see good happening all around them and just see all waking up and refusing to follow bad orders or be terrorists or their agents which consists of both groups or a lone poster in support of any of the above. We should also take good self care and be innocent as doves and wise as serpents. And don't put yourself in danger. Like I did here.

I forgive them in Jesus's name.

"Pray then like this: 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.'" Luke 11:2–4

John 17:20-25 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— 23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.

24 “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.

25 “Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. 26 I have made you[e] known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.

I feel you don't love yourself and that negativity is limiting your life. If you cannot love yourself how do you expect to recognise love from others. So I suggest you try meditating on your own soul giving greater compassion and understanding. A wise man once said... You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.” Buddha. Buddhism isn't a religion but an introspection. It is not incompatible with Christianity.

I wish you the best! I am glad you still have a sense of humour but I hope you also vent from time to time.

Mine would have to be a seemingly permanently broken spine. Going on 9 heavily fractured vertebrae..

Really, all my other issues seem to stem from the inherent limitations of that. A decade ago, before the first fractures, I always thought any problem could be overcome with cleverness, creativity, and perseverance. Not quite the case..

Everything.

What? Are you paralyzed? O siht!

a reply to: QueenofWeird

Luckily, no. All of the fractures are in the thoracic region, which is stabilized by some pretty big muscle groups. If it had happened higher up, or lower down.. it might be a different story.

I do get a lot of spinal headaches from changes in spinal column pressure due to the breaks, but can move relatively normally. Kind of interesting really.

The pain is genuinely severe though. If you have ever broken a bone, its like that initial very painful stage, but for years on end and slowly getting worse. Hopefully my bones start to heal at some point. There would still be issues, but they'd be much more manageable.

Despite constant pain levels of 8-9, I find it equal parts interesting and brutal.

What is this affliction? And can't it be healed???

Diagnosis is "Metabolic Bone Disorder," which is quite a vague and fancy way of saying "we don't really have a clue."

It doesn't seem particularly consistent either. I severed my femoral head, and the subsequent hip replacement actually healed normally (thankfully).

I've tried everything from the newest medications to homeopathic remedies over the last 10 years, with no results. There is a lot of strangeness surrounding it all. I've actually been curious if similar bone issues might be on the rise in "younger" demographics, but its a really difficult area to get solid info.

You need an artificial exoskeleton seriously though, what a Sh!t disease. Seems to be about certain minerals.

Not being able to legally and presently do drugs that I want, know and love@(like DXM)

Not having enough cash to eat the best type of foods..for the most nutrient impact..
Not having enough cash to buy the books that i want and need..

Not having the guts or ware with all to be able to compete at a high level in Super Smash Brothers Melee!(I'm Sprocket btw)

Having honestly to have to cure diseases before I have sex with a Woman..and by a Good God damn time I am good with women!

Having honestly to remove the suffering in the world as a Messiah...and Having honestly to winning in Valhalla..to save my freinds and parents...and the people of Rome!

I have a GAP, no one can explain what it does,in my brain (VA says I was born with it and SARIN GAS from Desert Storm ,most likely can't do that so it's NOT their problem and the description is in MED alien speech and THEY won't deal with ANYTHING dealing with that experimental Anthrax vaccine,much less the ADJUVANT used)and an algorithmic disconnect somehow.
I have a Scf Fi talent that I will NEVER pursue because I am a combat vet(A walking microaggression,toxic masculine army scout and NOT really feeling a damn thing to be shamed about killing while I was one,but the natural guilt of survivors) and can't do math any way if I wanted a business.
Other than that I wish my close friends hadn't died and I wish my father once talked to me about life before he croaked...

I live angry now and walk softly behind and expertly crafted armored face..
The rest I forget ,bad memory...OH yeah I have COPD...and 24 other things...

"Snatch-squad" recruitment agencies on LinkedIn and the Internet. Whenever I apply for an interesting job (mathematics, programming, desktop PC's) by E-mail anywhere and am offered a face-to-face interview, within days I am pestered by recruitment agencies for the mobile/electronics industry with "I've got this really exciting position, the closing date is 5pm this afternoon, send me your CV and I'll get the application in on time". Turns out to always be device driver work for mobile tech companies.

The loss of all my UFO technology manuals that were in storage when our basement flooded. They got thrown out or at least I can't find them.

I stopped having problems when I realized that my perspective was biased. I may find myself facing many challenges off and on, but challenges can be overcome easier than problems. Problems is a negative connation offering no resolution. Challenges are more positive, offering you the ability to focus on possibilities. That perspective change enhanced my life in my opinion, can't say whether it will help others or not. Just my 2 cents.

My biggest problem is laziness.
I work enough to cover my needs then chill out, haven't worked a full five day week for longer than I can remember.
I'd be a millionaire if I wasn't so lazy, but meh, I like chilling out.
