  1. Yes' date=' yes, I have just come off a four month stall. FOUR MONTHS! Now I am losing again. Went down two lbs overnight. No explanation. Can't think of anything I've done differently. Just be patient, your body is fighting to stay the same weight it's always been. It'll come off eventually[/quote']

    How far out are you? I am 8 months out.


  2. I have not lost any weight since February. I am eating around 1000 calories a day. I am walking, doing squats and pushups. I take cinnamon tablets. I just cannot get the weight to come off now and I am 40 lbs away from my goal. I have tried increasing my calories, decreasing my calories..upping the Water. Does anyone have any tips, clues?? Could this be a thyroid problem? HELP!


  3. I don't know about stretching, but what i know about is that "feeling of restriction" or feeling of tightness is influenced by how you eat.

    So, try this - go back to the basics for like a week. Measure, eat 5-6 very small meals a day, or go on Protein drinks etc. Eat as though you were 8 weeks out not a year out. Drink lots of Water, but not with food - all the basics. Restrict carbs. I wonder if in a week you feel more of the feeling of tightness again.

    It is worth a try!

    How far out are you Jane? I was 303 when I started and I am now 207. I need to get to 160 but have been the same weight for 2 months. I will be 1 year out in June. I can eat more about a cup per meal.


  4. I just had my 9 month checkup' date=' I have lost 116 lbs since June 18, 2012, I'm 5'11" and started out at 334.9 lbs, I am so excited about getting to onderland!

    Awesome job. I have been on a stall for a month and finally lost another pound. I was sleeved June 25th and I am down 96 lbs and have 47 lbs to go, hope I get there! Thanks for sharing!


  5. People are just plain rude and jealous. I have lost around 90 lbs and someone posted a picture of me on FB. I had someone (not a close friend) send me a private message that said "I hope you don't take this the wrong way but you either need to lighten your hair or darken your eyebrows..just a pet peeve of mine". Really...not congratulations on your weight loss or I bet you feel so much better after losing that weight...my hair is the wrong color. Give me a break! I didn't respond right away...had to wait so I wouldn't make a rude comment back. I just said...well if my hair is the wrong color...tell God because it is the color he gave me...lol! I know my eyebrows are thin but not really sure what I can do about them...maybe I should have some tatooed on!! She sent me the phone number of someone who could tatoo them on! Go figure!
