  1. thanks for the inspiration. just what I needed to see tonight. Very frustrsted. I am almost 4 months out and lost total of 45 lbs. I know I should be doing more for exercise but geez shouldn't i loose a couple more lbs. a month at least. Seems like I go 2 or 3 weeks with nothing thn loose 2 then another 3 weeks and then another 1 or 2...It can't be possible to eat hardly anything and not use better than this.
  2. me too. get it first thing in the am with even a sip of water. Have to take my pills first thing when i get up before anything else.
  3. WOW John so sorry to hear this story and all that happened to you. Will pray God gives you the strength to get through it all, and heals you quickly.
  4. hi there. I was feeling the same exact wat last week. I am 5 weeks out tomorrow, and have been at a stall for 2 weeks now. The scale FINALLY moved this morning, and I dropped another 2. Very frustrating, but hear it's normal. Hang in there it will come.

  6. well stated. thanks and best of luck to you
  7. put egg into boiling water for 3 minutes, that's it. be careful not to crack shell. i run min under tap water a couple minutes so it's not real cold when putting in water. good luck
  8. well I have heard you all talking about stalls, but now i believe I am also experiencing one myself. I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO frustrated. How can we possibly only be eating 3 oz. of food and not have the scale move in over 10 days? It just makes no sense to me. even tonight at dinner my hubby said "I can't believe the weight isn't just falling off of you with the little amt. you are eating." How long does it take to start loosing or did I do this for a darn 25 lbs total? I surely hope not. Please help!

  10. So glad to hear it happened to others. when I was in the hospital I was drenched. They came in to do my vitals and thought I had a high fever, but was normal just drenched. Had to change everything. Continued every night for almost 2 weeks. Talked to the doc during my 2 week check and he said he'd never heard of it before. weird!

    ended up calling dr today and he said to take 2 TBLS. of milk of Mag. finally had relief....Hopefully scale will now start moving again!

    anyone else having problems with constipation? I haven't gone in almost a week since starting pureed foods. if so what did you take? I am thinking of eating some activia today and if no results calling dr tomorrow. Any suggestions?
