    Losing weight rapidly is NOT a problem, SO LONG AS YOU ARE NOT STARVING YOURSELF. Everyone's body is different. Some put on muscle easier than others and some lose fat easier than others.

    To make sure you're eating enough, I suggest eating at your goal weight's TDEE. So if you want to weigh 170, eat at maintenance for 170.

    Here's a weird one.

    So I caved and gorged a ton over last weekend. Real bad. Gained like 6.5 or so pounds over the weekend (yeah, real bad). So I went up to around 177.

    This week I've played by the rules, and today I'm at around 172.

    That's weird to me. I've seen water weight fluctuations like that but not from food before. Very strange.

    Woot! I was pre-diabetic and no longer am due to my weight loss and lifestyle adjustments. Fab.

    That is awesome! That's what it's all about right there - non-scale victories.

    Reached my goal. Reading my old posts is very satisfying. Crazy to think who I used to be. Thanks for the help all!
