Does anyone find their hunger increases around their period? I usually don't get hungry too much. Only if I go too long without eating anything. Well, right before and during my period I find myself getting hungry all the time. Is this normal?

I'll try it to try to get these last 5 lbs off! Cw- 150 Goal- 145

I am 16 months out and down 150 lbs. I am past my original goal. I'm still very strict with my diet. Well, today is Mardi Gras and I've watched everyone eat and drink. I haven't even taken a bite of king cake in 2 years!!!! Well, we came to eat Mexican and I started eating chips and salsa which I never do. I couldn't stop. I just kept eating. I never do this. Now I feel sick and guilty. I'm afraid I'm going to mess this all up! Just needed to vent to people who understand!

I agree. I think maintenance is the hardest part. Losing the weight was easy compared to this!

I've always ran about 120/70 even when I was heavy. Now, 90/50 is my norm! I do get dizzy at times and have to watch changing positions quickly. My heart rate also runs about 50.

Haha! I understand. I do eat gumbo and such with no rice!!! I still haven't had rice!

You are all so right! This weight loss is such a mind game! I'm struggling with the weight loss stopping and going into maintenance. I'm so afraid of regain! Thanks for the support!

153. First unsuccessful challenge for me.

Same. I give up with this challenge!

Where??? I'm in NOLA!!!

Same. Frustrated. First challenge where I won't meet goal. I've actually gained a few lbs. upsetting! Maybe I'm settling in? I'm past my goal weight.

153. I have no idea what my body is doing right now!

150. Don't know if it will ever go down!

Same....no change

I will tell you to stay off the scale and don't worry but that's the pot calling the kettle black. At 15 1/2 months out and below goal, I will admit I still have an obsession with numbers. I know I need to stop losing but I just can't get over seeing the scale go down. I'm working on it. Just keep following your program and you'll be fine but I completely understand what you're going through.

CW- 150 (never thought I'd see this) GW- 145 And that's going to be the end for me! Need to get into maintenance. I'm below goal and way below my doctors goal.

I'm in.

152. Lost more than expected this week due to stress. Never thought I'd have trouble stopping weight loss! Happy new year!

154 and goal!!!!

155 again this week. 1 lb to goal. I'm not going to stress over it!

I would starve if it weren't for dairy!!!!!
