So very frustrated, self induced. After the holiday I had gained 5lbs., now paying dearly. I had started on Monday with my back on track program...It has been so difficult. The first two days, just protein shakes, yesterday I had shakes, and eggs; but for some reason on the scale yesterday I was 215, this morning 217lbs. WHAT It has only been three days. It has to be fluid. I do remember that last night my tummy was really bloating and it was hard to get liquids in..Now, I feel defeated.

I had watch the doctors on television. A women who had lost 235 pounds, but had a lot of sagging skin..My goodness I became so upset. I have the skin starting to hang. SO puzzled. Lipedema is the caused for this problem. The patient holds the fluids and fat stays on the body.

Access skin doesn't go away on its on. It has to removed via surgery. The liquid and fat remains. Has anyone experienced this? Scary. I know I have to become more active, to rid me of all these aches and pains. My energy level has very taken a beating. I hope the next couple of months are a lot better then the pass five months. I have learned that I cannot cheat, have to more disciplined.

It has been three days today since I started, the scales says 3lbs since Monday, but, yesterday morning I was 215lbs. 2 lbs..Makes me crazy.

I have to huge discovery, I HAVE TO reprogram my mind and thoughts again. I remember the first month was tough, but, the pounds were falling out. After the shakes and moving in whole foods is what has throw me over the hill. If anyone is reading this, please I am in need of direction and assistance.

Thankfully appreciated.
