    A lot of people will assume you care about every one of the latest diet crazes and so will tell you about some random detox or diet that sounds impossible to follow permanently but that is apparently completely life changing (or so they've heard). I have seizures (or I used to before I got on medication) so I have had to be careful and talk with my doctor, because if I don't eat enough I have noticed that my threshold gets low. It gets borderline offensive on occasion when people I know say that they read about a new diet that can cure me, especially when I am on medication that works, and knowing that they see me as defective is hurtful. I'm not going to trust a non-doctor with my health or someone who possibly cured their child's autism/cancer/whatever with a diet of avocado and string beans. Or a supposed doctor on television or a doctor who wrote a book.

    I hear you. Have same issue. Too many people try to tell you "should control seizures with 'natural' remedies' ".

    I had no but before and nothing after. Lunges are good, squats are good, but what helped me the most has been weighted hip thrusters!

    That just sounds dangerous!!

    So my time of month had been 27 days after last time ended as I gained weight and i thought age it moved to 23 days after last stopped well as I am losing weight I noticed it is going back to less frequent last month was 25 and this one was 26.

    After a month of healthy eating mine swung from 28-29 days, to 35!!! My husband and I both freaked out a little although I figured it was the changes to my diet. The next month it was back to 28.

    Things i have learned.
    1. Bras. Before i started losing weight i had an extender. Now I have no more hooks left to tighten them. I will have to buy new bras.
    2. My collarbone. I have one! Who knew! Haven't found out if i have hip bones yet!
    3. That the junk food i used to eat - like processed cheese singles- i cant eat any more. They taste awful.
    4. I am so happy watching the scales go down i dont want to waste calories on junk food.
    5. That when you do the right thing and lose in a healthy way with mfp it really is easy.
    6. That i thought i wasnt fat before. But i was. I honestly saw myself smaller the whole time.

    And this is after losing "only" 16 of the 40 kilos i have to lose.!

    Over 35 lbs - that's a whole lotta "only"! Wonderful!
