I feel so emotional today, I have no idea what my problem is. I haven't felt like this since the first week or two. Anyone else experience this?

Hi Sunny80! I was told that we store estrogen in our fat cells and am wondering if maybe when it's released into our systems we get PMS-like symptoms. I have days like that too. Fortunately it seems to go away as quickly as it appears. Hope you're feeling better soon!

Maybe that's it. Thank you for the reply! Hopefully tomorrow is better.

Feel better Sunny! After my last pity party, the scale finally started moving again. I had to hit Walmart and a thrift store for some stretchy shorts and skirts for work. I'm officially not buying plus size any more!

I can also eat salad.. I can pretty much eat everything. I had noodles and I threw up. Remember this is a tool.

I have lost almost 30 lbs but not lost a full size. How does that happen? I haven't lost a pound in two weeks. I can't eat salads no matter how much I chew. I'm so frustrated right now. I'm a positive person, and grateful for this opportunity. Just stuck.

You will lose a size.. I'm down 45 and just now losing a size.. You are losing fat from all over your body.. It will go.. You might be in your first stall.. it will come. Keep doing what you are doing.. How are your calories? What weight did you start at? Salads are different for everyone.. if you can't tolerate raw veggies, eat cooked ones.

I get it.. but it will go!

Hi girls and guys! I am from the UK and I am struggling with cooking decent healthy meals, I just get fed up with cooking such a little amount and still not being able to eat it all, I end up throwing it away as I hate to reheat stuff it tastes awful to me! I lived on take aways cause I hated cooking! I am just not sure! Some days I end up not eating at all, it slips my mind cause I am dealing with my 3 kids so forget as i fall into bed when they do and sparks out

I have stalled a few times. My first one was almost 3 weeks. I wanted to cry. But I remembered that it does not last forever. Keep eating right and working out.

What do your kids eat?? Why can't you make a meal where you can eat too?

I had surgery on March 17th and have lost 30 lbs. It seems that I am losing much slower than on previous diets. I exercise 4 times/week and my caloric intake is around 900 - 1050 calories/day. I am a bit disappointed, but truly hope the weight loss will continue and maybe speed up a bit.

Usually they don't have a big meal at dinner time as they have one at lunch at school so I give them something light usually egg on toast or Beans on toast or toast with Vegemite or jam, today I have eaten 550 cals but I don't feel that it's enough!

I'm paranoid about my kids being overweight. They eat mostly high protein.. Sometimes they have grain.. But not every day. eggs are a great protein.. We normally have meat and veggie for dinner.< /p>

Have a Protein Shake.< /p>

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
