  1. Bumping this to the top? How are all y'all doing? I had lost 60 starting wt 210 5'0" now 150. I was stuck for a few months 15 away from goal. Now I have gained 5. But I'm just not feeling to great the past few weeks I been feeling like poo. Tired. So maybe I need a check up?
  2. They also aggravate or exacerbate neurological symptoms. If you have MS or seizures or other problems these chemical laden artificial sweeteners can trigger or magnify the symptoms. They basically turn to formaldehyde in your body due to the chemical combos. It's just bad for you period!
  3. Yep I'm 43 lol. And YES carbs and sweets are my downfall right now. Plus I haven't been drinking enough water. Doug I know that there is way too much artificial crap in our foods and products period. My youngest daughter has seizures from formaldehyde exposure. So I've learned more about chemicals in the past 3 years than I ever cared to know!!! I will have to check into that aspect more. After my vacation next week I hope to find my motivation. Thanks y'all!
  4. Mine fell out pretty bad from the 5th-10th month. Now at 17 mo out I think it's thicker than it has been in a few years. But still alittle thin. I take my vitamins and biotin everyday since 6 month before surgery.
  5. Ya it sucks! I have the hormonal sweet tooth also and just found out a few weeks ago that I will be a grandma. So I think I'm gaining my 22 yr olds pregnancy pounds instead of her lol.
  6. I will have to check out the group. Thanks! I mean of course. I'm WAY better off than I was at 215 being only 5 foot. But I'd still like to get to goal. I feel SO much better now though.
  7. Surgery was feb 2012. Still 15-20 away from my "goal" weight. I had been stuck at the same weight give or take a pound or two for 7 MONTHS. Now the past 6 weeks I have been feeling hungrier and have gained about 5 give or take a pound. I really want to at least get to my goal even if I gain 5 after that just to say I GOT THERE. Not feeling motivated or exercising doesn't help. I just need to buckle down again and DO IT! Blah.
  8. Idk how much in average I lost per week or month i tried not to drive myself crazy tracking it all. And I do I'm sure eat more carbs than I should. I just didn't want to feel deprived forever. I think after my daughters grad party Saturday I'm gonna do really low carb for awhile and try to lose this last bit.
  9. I pretty much lost slow the whole time. And at times I just felt like I was never even going to get where I am now but here I am. Like I said I haven't lost any thing to speak of in about 6 months so the first 10 months I lost the most.
  10. My height is 5'0". Starting weight 205, highest weight 218, current weight after almost 16 months is 145. I would like to be 130-135, but I'm lazy= don't exercise and don't always eat exactly as I should....I never wanted to feel like I was on a perpetual diet for life! So I'm happy with how far I have come without much actual effort. If I lose the last bit I do. If not I'm OK with that!! I've been stuck for about 6 months now give or take 2-3 pounds up n down. Size 12-14 l/xl to 4-6 s/m AutumnChallenge_Oct.xls
  11. Here's my pics I look pasty in the new one plus no make up. Was running late to go out so i had to do that in the car while hubby drove. lol. Dang flash is possessed! Before 205-215 now 145 5'0". Still wanna lose 10 more eventually! Been stuck for awhile now.
  12. I'm 5'0 started at 205 (highest was about 215) now 145. Been stuck here for awhile and I really want to get to 135 LOL. SLOWLY but surely! I hope I will! I'm wearing a 4 jeans and small or med tops from American eagle now though.
  13. Lost inches around also but no real cup loss. They are holding up pretty good pun intended. I have about 10-15 left that I want to lose. So I think they will be ok but I would love a mini lift! But my flat behind is even flatter lol o well.
  14. Thanks y'all I just got it too. This was the first time I wore the shirt. Mug? I'm confused.
  15. I really haven't exercised much at all. Bad I know . But even so the skin is looking better over time. I plan to hit they gym hard in April and May bc i lose motivation quickly so I wanted to wait til closer to summer so I can firm up.
  16. Yay buddy! Now need to lose 10 more to be at my "stated goal weight" LOL or the weight I been saying I WANT to weigh for years and years. It's almost here! Can't wait! And I'm also excited that my slightly loose skin is going away yay!
  17. How did if go Jenna? How r u feeling???
  18. It's my favorite milk ever! Great for the shakes too.
  19. Sorry for the misspellings it's late and I can't see. Gezzz.
  20. Started at 5'0" 205 now 145. Would like to lose 10-15 more but heyyyy I'm happy and I feel alot better! If I do good ...if I don't o well. Plus I'm KEEPING it off! Never could do that on my own! If I was diligent about exercise and what I eat I'm sure I get t off but I never wanted to feel like I was on a NEVER ENDING DIET I wanted to feel normal and I DO. mission accomplished! Here's a pic of my little black dress that my hubby bugged me for 3 days to go back to the mall and get after I tried it on and sent him this pic. Lol.
  21. Plus there are hormones stored in fat cells that are being releases whether u are male or female. I spent 20 years always being hot, now I actually get cold most of the time. Sooo weird! The moodiness does get way better.
  22. Well the hormone test were normal. But FINALLY the past 2-3 weeks I'm feeling alittle more back go my old self in the bedroom. Not 100% but 75% lol. Hey I'm not complaining!
  23. CVS has an adult chewable multi vitamin (cvs brand) and they have them bogo free pretty often. They taste like the kids Flintstones I love them!
