SMH - Russian Bride

Yesterday's post is laughable:

http://prebabyblog.com/2011/06/i-am-stuffed/

She is being forced to eat 2,000 (and that is so hard because it's a lot of food) calories a day for the baby Confused.  She seems to think that at her height (5'11) that that's too many.  FFS.  In comparison, I'm a damn cow.

It's to the point that I read her blog for comic relief.  She's something speshul.

  • I think comic relief is the only thing her blog is good for.

    word.

    If she's struggling to eat 300 more calories, I suggest a cookie.

  • She's nuts! It's hilarious though. I keep expecting that one of these days we'll find out that this was all a hoax. Surely no one can actually be that BSC in real life. Hard to 2000 calories. Shoot, I do that without even thinking about it.

    I think you should suggest that to her in the comments. Most times when I read her blog, I want to punch her in the face. Oh and the whole doppler thing scrambling the baby's brain cells? COME ON

  • Some one catch my eyes, they are already rolling out of my head and I'm on the first paragraph. SHUT UP! Yet, I'm so intrigued by her, what a strange person!

  • omg.

    "When you don?t eat hot pockets or burgers or meat lover?s pizzas all day long, 2000 calories is a difficult goal to achieve."

    Yeah, because that's what people who eat more than 2000 calories eat "ALL" day. You can eat 10 100-calorie packs of cheez-its and get a 1000 calories!

    It is seriously a train wreck. You just can't keep your eyes off of it. I kind of want to make a blog making fun of her blog. Is that wrong of me?

    I didn't think anything of the 2000 calories being too much to eat (sometimes I've thought that too), but to say what she said (quoted above) is really offensive and ignorant.  I quit reading after that.

  • I left a comment saying she was crazy but I am sure she will not post it. 

  • I have not read that blog at all yet because I am afraid it will make me mad.
    I heart Ben!!

    I don't think so! I'm pretty sure she's BSC b/c it will bring people to her blog and she makes money every time someone clicks on it. She's doing it for MUD and you're profiting from her too. Capitalism :)

  • I definitely think she screens her comments because there's no way that people aren't commenting and telling her she's BSC. She's got to be picking and choosing what she allows posted.

  • I have to eat around 2500 calories a day and I think it's hard Embarrassed But I think that's because I'm so used to dieting (like half that amount).

    I agree, right now I eat 1600-1800/day, depending on the day, at sometimes find it hard to get it all in. I mean, I'm eating 5-6 meals a day, which means I'm eating every couple of hours, and stuffing myself and sometimes I'm just not THAT hungry. 

    As far as the other stuff, that chick is a whackadoo! I almost want to read more, but it's just making me angry.

  • I must seriously over eat then :(. I thought 2000 was what people were supposed to eat!?

    It really depends on what your goals are and how active you are.

    Sparkpeople has me around 1500 a day for weight loss and with moderate exercise (since hot yoga isn't an exercise option).

    She does. I was reading the comments on either that post or another one and she wrote "chill, your comment will show soon, I haven't been able to screen them all yet" or something to that effect. I guess someone must have commented again that they couldn't see their comment or something.

  • And it depends on WHAT you're eating. I think it's completely ridiculous for her to say that people who eat 2000 (or more) a day are eating pizza pockets and basically, crap. My co-workers son has to put away a lot of calories (college football) but it's all healthy things, just high calorie. Eat an avocado.

    Aside from any food talk, she bsc as a total package. Bottom.line.

  • Yeah, I eat a lot of high fiber/high protein and sometimes, there's a lot of calories in there (peanut butter, etc...).  I do tend to over-eat though but I'm not eating burgers and hot pockets.
