  4. My doc told me I should be eating 8oz now so I wouldn't worry.
  5. 48 lbs off! It's been so slow for me the whole time - lots of stalls - but it's still worth it! SW 240 CW 192 GW 160
  6. I'm almost 5 months and it's falling out like crazy!! I hate it!! I just heard zinc helps with regrowth. Gonna try it - I'm desperate.

  8. 1 night. I had no complications.
  9. 4.5 months out, 46 lbs down. Feeling happy, happy, happy!
  10. I experienced this quite a bit but less so now (I'm 4.5 months out). I still can't pinpoint why it does it but I do try to drink more water and get my protein on those days. I hate the feeling!!
  11. Really? I thought that was a well known side effect.

  13. Thanks I'll look into that shampoo. Of course I knew it would happen but when reality sets on, it's like Oh crap!
  14. So the hair loss is driving me nuts. Im almost 4 months out and its in full swing or full fall, I should say. I have long hair and its on everything!! Has anyone had luck with anything? Biotin pills or even Rogain or Minoxidil. I know it sounds vain, but I didn’t like being fat with a full head of hair and I don’t want to be skinny and bald either – yikes!!

  16. I can also eat 3-4 oz of protein. If I add in a veggie to my meal (usually dinner) it weighs about 4.5 oz. total. And I can eat ANYTHING. that's good, but bad. I'm down 40 with 40 to go, so it's slow, but I'd rather have a Sleeve of Steel than have the hard time others do.
  17. How many carbs and protein are you getting in? I haven't been tracking as closely as I should so I'm wondering what others are doing?? Thanks!
  18. I literally threw away 1/2 a chocolate cake that was left... My weakness!! But I talked myself into dumping it, then did it before I could talk myself out if it. Playing mind games with yourself can be confusing!!
  19. This was my Thanksgiving plate. For comparison, that deviled egg is a small size egg. I couldn't finish it all, but I did have some pumpkin pie and a little more turkey and dressing for dinner. I did have a lot more carbs than I'm used to but thanks to my tiny pouch, the damage was minimal. Tomorrow, I'm back on the wagon. ????
  20. My biggest pet-peeve is everyone feels like they have to tell me I look great every time they see me - even if its 2 days later and my weight is the exact same. i'm glad I have supportive friends, but sometimes its like... give it a rest people. haha
