I was on the meds for 5yrs, took nearly two years to get off them.

^this.Just saw my Dr.
He is thrilled with my progress ("Davena, you've lost more weight!") ... He thinks the 'slow down' of my loss may partially have something to do with lifting... "You are smaller, you clearly have less fat on your body. It IS possible you have built SOME muscle." ... And/or "are you sure you are counting the calories as closely as you did 20kgs ago?" ... And/or ... "Weight loss naturally slows down after a big loss. It WILL be harder to lose weight from here on in. Mix up your calories. Exercise one more day a week, move more!"
He saw absolutely no reason to draw bloods.

I weigh in Sunday mornings so I thought I'd update this thread with progress.
I did change my cals/macros as suggested on Thursday (since it was only 50cals a day less than I was already eating), but I have been eating back some or all of my exercise cals. As suggested I'll stop eating back those.
So starting weight (today): 100.1kg
Bust: 113cm
Waist: 102cm
Hips: 124cm
I'll update with my progress next Sunday.0 -
Hahahahaa.
Oh I love my body.
100.8kg.
An increase of 700gms.
I did get two PB's yesterday though.0 -
Deeva...you know I luvs ya - but you have been averaging a little over 1,900 this week. Really try to cut down to the 1,700. Also, your carbs have been a bit high so try to keep those in check due to the prior PCOS.
OK, I know you hate me now!
But - get you with your bad *kitten* self with the PRs - congratulations!0 -

I've been focusing on bringing my own lunch into work, rather than leaving it to chance. Once I get that right, I think I'll be flying.0 -

So starting weight (today): 100kg (total loss = 100gms go me!)
Bust: 115cm (???)
Waist: 101cm
Hips: 123cm
So I've lost some 'size' if not weight. Unless all that size has moved up to my boobs.
I think I'll keep going for at least two more weeks because my exercise in the past two weeks hasn't been 100% consistent, and I only now feel like I'm starting to hit my macros.0 -
