Hi I am back again. Had a rough year, gained 20 lbs. partly due to meds, now I need to lose 40lbs. I am going back in for surgery in December for cancer but need to drop some weight first. Not all the 40 but would like to lose at least 10 lbs.
I have a hard time eating early in the day but am really focused on doing so even if it is a bit. I love to cook and do cook very healthy. My big problem is I sleep little, again meds, and then crave salty foods like popcorn, chips, pretzels. Anything dry and salty I can taste and learned to enjoy. Prior to this never ate salt, now it affirms that I am actually tasting things.
Anyway NO MORE EXCUSES. I need to get my weight under control regardless of steroids and meds. For my life I need to lose 40 lbs.
I am 55 female and 5 foot tall at 167. People that see me do not see the weight and say I look good. I cover it well but my face is round and puffy so they figure it is the meds and the cancer. It is because I am FAT!!!
Looking for a support system.
Thank you
