avilla 1 Posted September 27, 2006 I have also heard that if you dont get in enough calories that your body goes thru a starvation period and stores everything that it can...I went thru this the last several weeks before my first fill too...The scale wouldnt move no matter what I did...I thought I was doomed from the very beginning and was very depressed until I had this explained to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mariecarmen 1 Posted October 19, 2006 Boy, this advice couldn't have come at a better time for me. I've been struggling mightily. You've eased my mind, now I'm refocusing. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kmwwmk 0 Posted October 30, 2006 Leatha, what does it mean write a post that just says: "bump. bump, bump"? I know it has o do with re-posting something that ws good an applicable again, but can you explain specifically what yours mean? thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leatha_g 4 Posted October 31, 2006 Exactly that. I am merely placing a reply on an old post in order to bring it up to the top again so that new people can view it. There are certain questions that come up again and again and with each new wave of new members, some discussions come up over and over. So, when I see posts that refer to this topic, I might often 'bump' it up again, so that the newest members can possibly use it. Make sense? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HarleyNana 10 Posted November 2, 2006 I had a problem in the beginning of not losing, and I had gained muscle, so just because you're not losing, you MAY be gaining much needed muscle. Of course, now a year later...hmmmmmm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

juliegeraci 7 Posted November 8, 2006 Love the repost. It reminds me again as to why I am doing this and to be patient with the fills and weight loss. I'm losing a lb a week and so far its better than gaining. Thanks again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
