Do you also have to go up a cup size from what you normally wear with this company?

I had forgotten all about posting this. Well to update all these months later, I am not having that issue anymore. For whatever reason it was just early on in my weightloss. But maybe I wasn't getting off all the sunblock properly either before sleep because that stuff is really hard to wash off sometimes.

Ok. I will watch the carb grams and the protein and let the fat be what it will.

Hi! I will add you. Anyone else, please feel free to add me too. I don't have any low carb friends on MFP.

Hey, thanks for sharing all that! I have had a similar experience and am trying to find the "normal" way to live. I learned a lot when I went to a hospital a little under a year ago. They put me on different meds too. Are you on meds now? That helped me a lot, but also being taken off the bad meds was helpful. I want to…

Well I'm seeing a new doctor in a few weeks and I am going to ask about some of this stuff since I am trying to lose so much weight. Hopefully she can help or refer me to a separate nutritionist. (I'm assuming nutritionists are considered medically necessary to most insurances. Mine is limited so idk.)

Thanks for the advice! I did end up finding a pretty good back support for my computer chair. And thankfully I do have health insurance again, so I will be scheduling a doctor appointment with someone. Hopefully there is not a huge waiting list!

I am probably going to let myself have more calories. Especially if I work out hard I will have 1500. No workout or little just 1200. But I do want to continue to work out hard because it feels like an escape. I want to become someone who only has to eat a little bit each day. Otherwise I will binge. It's so much harder to…

Yeah, it could be sweat plus all the sunscreen I have to use now that I'm outside a lot. I was thinking of words like "detox" as any bad stuff I'd put in my body like even old medications could be surfacing, getting pushed out.

The most I've done is 1,084ish? So I've gotten the negative net calories, but I would still end up eating something before bed. I would mainly just walk at a good pace around my neighborhood, to the store, other places, throughout the day so it would accumulate to hours of walking. Then maybe an hour in the gym with…

I know someone who had to do that. I don't know what their condition is, but they had to get some of their husbands poop transplanted into their body, their colon I guess, to try and promote the growth of good bacteria. I don't think it worked very well though. I guess it might technically be beneficial for weight loss,…

I always forget that ice is good for pulled muscles and strains.

Hey. I'm Caitlin. I'm 27 and have at least 50 pounds to lose. I started at 240 and am now at 230. I'm doing whatever it takes to lose the weight I need to become the real me again. I don't want to waste my youth this way! Yes, I could use some younger friends too with my level of weight problem.

Well it's more like sometimes I just find myself at the end of the day and I haven't eaten that much. Like days where I mostly eat vegetables. And I don't want to just pile it all on at the end of the day. Those are some good points. And the fat thing, yes, I 've seen that keep people from losing weight until they upped…

I gained so much weight after quitting smoking and so have some of my friends. I beat the one thing, now whoops, I have a second difficult thing to beat. :/

Yeah, hey. I got disenthused by the whole nerddom thing in mainsteam media lately. Geeky is just a way to be not something to aspire to or like show off how geeky you are. Meh, mainstream ruins everything for me. But yeah, I haven't really been able to cosplay for the last couple years after, gasp no, gaining 100 pounds…

I love eating too much in the evenings. It's like the last things I get to do that day and I want it to be good. Sometimes I'll make myself stop when I'm full with the promise of like a cup of pudding or something right before I go to bed just to have something. I'm doing very poorly with it though.

I have tried meletonin and actually use it every night, but it only works like a second blanket kindof if I'm already very ready to go to sleep. I will probably try the soap thing just in case but yes it sounds ridiculous. The book idea is something I really need to do. I need a low light lamp so I don't bug my bf. We keep…

I am on it 600 mg 3x per day for headaches, sleep, RLS, and arm pain as well as anxiety and depression. If anything it is stimulating to me and I will lose my desire to eat sometimes, especially if I have coffee. It does make me lightheaded and dizzy all the time, however I'm scared to go off it as I've become so dependent…

I didn't even know they had light ones. I use the mission tortillas. I probably am overfilling a little bit. I will try putting them in the microwave or even steam it a little bit in one of those bamboo steam pots. Thanks y'all.

Yep. I'm 27, live with my bf of 6 years. I haven't had kids though. But I'm trying to go from 240 to 185 after gaining 100 pounds rapidly in this last year. >_> Anyone may add me. I could so use the support of other women.

Ah. Yes I definitely didn't press it the right way. Thanks for the suggestions. I basically have to use something softer than meat so my boyfriend will eat it. For some reason the texture of the ground meat just irks him.

Hi. I'm Caitlin. Trying to lose 60 pounds to start with. Maybe 80. I recently gained 100 very quickly so I'm very uncomfortable in this new body. I'm up for supportive friends. :)

So you just purchase the actual cd's? I worry that cd's will have the copyright component to it, where it won't let you copy it to the computer.

Thanks guys. I have been to a dr. and had my blood done recently. And I'm working on getting on a proper combination of meds. Just having some problems w my doctor, so I might switch soon. Ok, I'm going to go treadmill in a few.

I've so done the not eating thing. Permanently messed up my body. Yes, eating enough and staying hydrated are super important to me now. I could definitely use the motivation. I'll add you. :)

I log in every day, even when I have the occasional but major slip up. I'd love more friends on here so yeah, add me. :smiley:

Thanks y'all. :) I look forward to helping each other out.

I'm 27 and weigh 240. I'm trying to get to at least 180. I have the Jillian Michaels kickboxing but I like the 30 day shred better that I tried before. Her workouts are good though. :) I totally need someone to help me out and vice versa. I do occasionally have to take a few days off social media in general just like for…

Feel free to add me. I'm 27 but I'm just getting into college again and yes, whenever I come home from school I am so stressed out I have to eat like every carb and chocolate in the house. :( I have fitness room at my complex but I get lazy and also nervous of the other people there. -__- I want to get over these things!
