Stalled and depressed
Thanks guys, yeah, I know the things I do that are wrong but that's my problem I get discouraged and want to give up, so I need some words or advice to get me over that hump!! I think I'm ok with my protein but my hair is coming out rapidly. I take biotin and I take a multi vitamin. But maybe it's not enough. I do walk every day, 2 miles! Now, I live in the Atlanta area and we have had lots of rain since Christmas and that henders me and the cold also. I started back walking yesterday and I must say I do feel better. Thanks for the motivation and advice!! I'll take all I can get!!!

Afraid of getting back into old habits!
I'm so scared I'm going to ruin my weight loss. I do not work so my day consist of watching tv, light housework and maybe going to visit a friend. I am so afraid of getting back into my old rabbits of emotional eating. I'm working on getting a therapist that can help me a little but I still see myself wanting to eat bad things and too much of it!!! Help!!! If I could think if something that I could snAck on that wouldn't take up a lit of room in mt tummy and wouldn't be bad for me that way i could have it when I feel the impulse to eat. I also am having a hard time getting myself motivated to walk. I can't really do a lot bc if my back and my arms. I go to my neurologist on the 5th about the pain in my arms. Any words of encouragement would help!!!

I have had two concerns or questions over the past 3 weeks and while a whole lit of people view or read my concern, no one is willing to answer or reply to mt post. Am I posting my concerns in the wrong place. I thought this forum was full of veterans who have been through all this and succeeded!! Should I just ask another forum? Bc I'm getting nothing on here.

Fasting
Do any of you fast? (spiritually)? I'm a Christian and recently I have felt lead to fast. I'm only doing it 2 days at a time, as to get my body used to no food. It's been pretty easy so far. I stay in God's word and pray. It really makes me feel good. I do a juice fast. I can only have juice a little at a time. Just looking for others.

Walking and sleeping?
I find that when I wake up I'm full of energy, so I get on my gear and I go walking, but about an hour after I can't keep my eyes open. Does napping after walking hurt my calorie burning or sabotaged my weight loss??

Need help!
Im 3 weeks post op and 20 lbs down. It was so easy at first to not over eat and really, I didn't have an appetite at all, but now I fund myself not wanting to eat too much, but eat things that aren't actually good for me!! I hate my brain. It drives me crazy. I think about food all the time!!! I don't work, I'm on disability due to, two back surgeries, fibromyalgia, diabetes, arthritis and just general poor health. I have a lot of time on my hands. I try to walk when I'm not in pain. I can't do weights because my fibro, is attacking my biceps, I've never felt so much pain. I can barely lift my arms over my head. I want to get motivated. I want to walk everyday atleast a mile, two would be even better!! I need advice. I need an accountability partner. I hate myself right now. I'm still not getting enough protein, I'm supposed to be logging my meals but I just don't.... Please help

Mother is on my tail!
Yeah, eggs are on my list, there are a lit of things on my list that are not on others. And my meal portion in 4-6 tablespoons not 2-3. I understand what everyone is trying to say but my guidelines are just way different than everyone else's. I don't know why. I have talked to lots if my surgeons patients and everyone has done great following his plan. I do put my chicken in my ninja before I make the chicken salad. I can live without bread. I do live with my mother and my two teenage boys. My husband left us for the second time back in 2012 so I lost my house. But oddly enough I'm happier now than o have been in 17 years, which is how old my oldest son is...lol thanks for all the advice, I really appreciate it. Haha...The Soup Nazi!!!

Mother is on my tail!
How am I sabotaging myself. I'm not eating anything not on my list with the exception of bread. I'm not eating too much, only my 4-6 tablespoons, 5 times a day. And I'm not eating 5 meals a day. I have to force myself to eat 3 times a day.

Eggs is the first food listed on my 7-11 day list. Plus finely chopped chicken, fats like butter and mayo. Basically any food I can mash with a fork. These are all in my book. Now the bread was the one thing not on there. But it has not made me sick. I can have green beans, mashed potatoes, melon, strained berries, cooked carrots.
