Oh good! I thought it was just me. Last night, here in Mass, it was 18* and I was FREEZING!!!! I mean 18* is cold but it felt like it was going straight through me to my bones. I couldn't get warm even with 3 blankets on me, the heat on 80 and 2 pairs of socks.

You look awesome!! Congrats!!!!

I’m the same, I want to graze and nibble things. I still can only eat very small meals, but in between I want to eat nuts finding it hard to stick to 800 - 1000 calories.

You look awesome!! Congrats!!!!

Before surgery of August 29, 2017, pre-sugery weight of 244 to today at 204! 5 more lbs to go, then on to the 100's. Im am super happy, and loving myself again!!! :0)

Oh, I'm having a moment where I need people who have been there to "talk me off the ledge". After my rough start right after surgery, (internal bleeding with an extended hospital stay), I've been one of the lucky ones who has lost pretty fast. I'm down 49lb from 247lb before the pre-op diet. My freak out moment is, I weigh myself every Tuesday morning and for the last 2 weeks, I've been only losing 1lb per week. I know it sounds crazy to obsess about it but I'm honestly scared of what is going to happen when I plateau. What if I start trying to binge eat again?

I used to love Pasta but I don't think I care if I ever eat it again. It's so much work to avoid carbs and eat enough Protein that the idea of eating a pile of carbs with zero protein... not for me.
Are you all having foods you used to love but don't think you want anymore?

hang in there! You got this!

I knew it would happen to me eventually, but here it is: I'm stalled now too. I've only lost 1 pound in the last week. I'm not upset about it or anything. And it may have more than a little to do with me having been sick this week, both in terms of it being a strain on my system and in terms of me not being up for walking every day like usual.
I also sort of have a paranoid suspicion that because I'm now at my lowest weight in ten years, my body is fighting me to hold steady.
Nothing to do but wait and be extra careful with what I eat, tracking, etc. I do have a doctor's appointment tomorrow so I will see if they have any thoughts on how I might tweak my macros.

I noticed something about myself and I was wondering if others out there were having the same issue. When I'm making myself a plate of food, I'll take a look at 3oz that is on the plate and think, "that is not nearly enough" and add more (yes, I use very small plates). I never can finish it of course but I don't want this to turn into a habit and then over eat. Can anyone offer me any help on how to overcome this?

I ate something too fast this weekend and felt like I was going to die. I feel that I have lost more but my husband (who I made him do this) is not permitted to let me near the scale unless its Tuesday.
Other that that, I feel great! I have some of my energy back and then a some.
Question, how do you know you have overeaten? Is it kind of like when you are watching the TV and have a bag of chips and the next thing you know its gone? How long after you overate did the hurtful feeling come?

You have been to hell and back, but now you have to try and relax and let things take their course - Why would you put weight on? It's not really possible while your hardly eating anything, you might stall but that's your body sorting things out. You will get there. I've had the same feelings as you, but it's slowly working. I've stalled a couple of times and it's made me depressed and panicky, but even when my weights not shifting, inches are! Try to only weigh yourself once a week otherwise the scales will take over your life
my biggest problem is meal times, I struggle to eat more than an ounce at a time, if I do - It gets stuck, I feel sick and get a headache, I know I'm dehydrated, just can get the Protein and fluids in!!! One day at a time,
