  1. That is terrific. Congratulation.
  2. Gen you deserve this break. Hoping things work out the way you need them to.
  3. Please let us know what they say. I went back to the liquid diet for a week to lose 2 lbs and as soon as I eat anything I stall out. Actually as soon as I started eating soft foods I stopped losing. My calories are under 900 which is what I was told also and most days I exercise enough to actually create a negative count for the day. My protein levels are around 90-100 daily the only thing is I'm still lacking a cup or two of water. I've lost lots is inches from 24w to 16w and 41 lbs I'm getting really really frustrated.
  4. I guess it depends on what position you take, literally. Ha! I think on the app Lose It they have it as a cardio entry but not MFP. I don't think I would log it as exercise though I don't count stuff like cooking or leave my pedometer on all day or stuff that is just part of an everyday routine I only count what I do for exercise purposes.
  5. My back is also very itchy. I was thinking it was dry skin because of winter and taking really hot showers. The skin on my thighs, tummy, ect doesn't itch but it is sure irritated around my stretch marks
  6. That's to funny! Just found this thread...very entertaining! I have always had a high sex drive but the weight loss, the exercising, the confidence has made the sex addict come out more I think. For the record I swallow and do all sorts freaky stuff in the moment. I think sex is the greatest pleasure sport ever created.
  7. Gen take care of yourself. So sorry you are being tried like this in life. I will pray for you.
  8. I guess I'll ease up a little with the disappointment. It seems we are all around the same loss. Maybe it's is where we should be or our week was cursed lol.
  9. Yes I think I can get more fluids down that way. I like hot tea now lol
  10. Lol I just asked about the term NSV on my fitness pal I didn't know what it meant either. Congrats on the pants it is a wonderful feeling when my 24s looked terrible and wouldn't stay up I went shopping too to my amazement I went to a 18 and then a week later I wish I would have tried the 16 so I put on a belt and today when I put them on ...I think I'm ready for a new pair again I def love the NSVs cause the scale hasn't been giving me much love. On another note does anyone know how many mcg of biotin you are supposed to take daily to help with hair loss?
  11. My date was nov 19th and I've lost 41 since. I really had hoped for more and I compare myself to others all the time:( I try to remember that I'm way better than I was 10 weeks ago and there is still much work to do so I just keep after it with blind faith that it will come. And I agree I stall out around my period or even pack on a couple pounds.
  12. Hw 260 Dos 260 Last week 219 Today 219 Stalled again!
  13. I hope I'm not constipated. I take my stool softeners daily and have bm. I wouldn't say that I stick its not noticable but if you put your nose in my pit it's bad. My husband has noticed a change in my smell hopefully it will go away
  14. I had the sleeve. I now can not find a deodorant that will control the odor of my armpits. I was never a sweater and still not but its like my glands are secreting a very strong odor since surgery. My hair is oily and my face is breaking out all the time which is funny because I never even had acne in high school. Oh I hope it goes away soon. My water bill is crazy with all the showers. Lol
  15. I'm living in a small town in West Virginia. I had my surgery with dr. Nease in Huntington wv at Cabell Huntington hospital.
  16. I'm using body fortress whey from Walmart. It's under 20$ and 26 gm per scoop. I mix it with skim milk and its decent I've got used to it I guess. I have it in chocolate but I'm tired of that all the time so I'm going to get vanilla and a couple sugar free syrups and maybe some fruit and make smoothies.
  17. I'm 10 weeks out tomorrow and I average about 90 a day.y dr and nut told me 60 was the number you need to hit.
  18. Thanks I will look for that in the store.
  19. Wow momof4boys that is awesome.!
  20. Same here I haven't tried juice because of the sugar but my nut said 100% juice no added sugar and water it down.
  21. Don. Great job 100lbs in 5 months is awesome! You are def shrinking lol.
