Right new grand. I was told that by someone who I just saw about two months ago. Like I said my clothes are fitting better. A size 10 pants are looser but the scale says differently. -

Well hello everyone. I have been catching up on the posts and it looks as if everyone is doing great. As for me my word is frustrated!!! Nothing has changed since my last post. I upped my calories changed my work out routine and still nothing. I go between 158-160. I am about 25 away from goal. I have talk to nut and such and done what they have advised. Please chime in in anything that can help. How can I jump start my metabolism and is it possible to bottom out only after 8 months. -

I know how you feel. I have gained like 7lbs. Went to my 6mknth checkup and was advised that I really don't get in enough calories especially for my workout regimen. I have placed my body into starvation/survival mode do I have to change some things eat more etc. we will see. Hang in there. Aldo my vitamin d was almost none do that has an impact on weightloss mood swings energy etc. -

New thanks do the encouragement and info. I need to have my Calcium again also I didn't exercise for a couple of days, ate a lil more and stayed with my water intake(no Protein shake) and well this morning I was back down to 157 at least. I will see what I can do to keep it going. I guess I'm just afraid of the carbs!!! -

Yeah I know something is wrong. I did labs a few weeks ago and only vitamin d was low so my doc will have something to say about that. I will just keep doing what I'm doing because I think what I'm doing is right and see what happens. I really can't complain. I'm down from 212 to 158-160. From size 18/20 with xl-xl shirts to a comfortable 10 maybe 8 and medium shirts !!! -

Ok so I am sooooo discouraged right now. I had stayed away from the scale but hot on recently and almost had a heart attack. Not only have k not lost weight but I have gained weight. No it's not that TOM!! I have gained 7lbs it says!!! I went back to the basics because I was in a stall and usually when I do that it breaks and I loose like crazy. I was 153 now 160!!! I do my protein shake two times a day, get in about 80oz water I eat pretty much stage one and two foods. I'm getting about 70g protein and exercise 5 times a week. I don't know. I have been itching like crazy for the pass six weeks but not all over. Please help!!!!!! Also, sorry about the long book but I am SOO frustrated. Oh yeah and my feet are swollen I think!!!! -

I go don't know what's going on for me!!! I saw 153 about 3 weeks ago and since then not only has the scale not move butbitbhas gone up!!! That 153 was after going out of a 3/4 week stall and having to go back to the basics which was just liquids grrrrr. I'm doing that again but I don't know. I work out. Cardio and weights about 5 says a week. Also I have developed a serious itch over almost my whole body(breast abdomen area back of thigh near buttocks under arms etc) am I the only one who has encountered this? -

Right!!! I have had to buy a completely new wardrobe because I have wore the old clothes until there was nothing else I could do to hold them up!!! That's when all the compliments started coming when I wore clothes that I could fit. Tell your doc to get off the numbers and look at the pictures. -
