Angel46 2 Posted December 30, 2017 Hi ive been eating really wrong things since THANKSGIVING but im still losing weight, actually more. Is this normal?? And why is this happening Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creekimp13 5,840 Posted December 30, 2017 Who knows, but why question it? LOL. Maybe you've broken a stall...maybe the hectic pace of the holidays is giving you more exercise than you realize? Maybe you're eating fewer calories than you think, even though you're indulging a bit? If you'e really concerned, maybe get a physical and have some lab work done to make sure all is well. Are you feeling well? Any other concerning symptoms? If not...count your blessings and enjoy it! 1 1 Angel46 and ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,221 Posted December 30, 2017 (edited) that's not going to last forever. Focus on developing healthy habits. It gets way harder the farther out you get. addendum - wait - you're a year out and dropping weight while eating crap? I thought at first you were a new post-op. If there's no way to explain that, then I'd mention it to my doctor. Edited December 30, 2017 by catwoman7 1 1 Angel46 and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may turn out to be something simple, but I sure would want to know. 2 Creekimp13 and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creekimp13 5,840 Posted December 30, 2017 Agreed. A good physical and some blood work sounds like a very good idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TexasMommy80 297 Posted December 30, 2017 Maybe you were eating too little? In the past when I have lost weight on my own, if I did it using a really low calorie diet, I would have the same thing happen. It was only temporary and eventually if I continued, I would end up gaining. It did help to break stalls though, sometimes you have to eat more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tenseintexas 182 Posted December 30, 2017 I dropped weight untilAbout 15 months- basically eating whatever the crap I wanted too. Literally. I mean very little of it but still-whatever I wanted . It stopped at 18 months. I gained 5 pounds then - enough to freak me out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
