After a serious binge, like Thanksgiving I def restrict. For more minor ones I just get back on track. Also I keep my baseline calories lower than recommended since a) binging is inevitable and b) we tend to underestimate our caloric intake. That way I'm back where I need to be (maintenance) in a day or so.

I gained about 40lbs and didn't have much trouble losing it.

Happy Birthday!!!

Yea, mine was two years ago in June. We were going to my friend's daughters' birthday party and realized I did NOT want it to be summer because I'd have to wear summer clothes! In public! I just couldn't take another frustrating as heck morning trying to get dressed and hating everything about my wardrobe and my…

I'm 5'4" and maintaining btw 126-129. My starting weight was 141 but all time high probably 150 or so. My suggested maintenance cals are 1640 or so but I keep it at 1500 so I have wiggle room. This is really working for me! Feel free to add me as a friend!!

I feel best when I am over my daily recommendation. Try eating apples, sweet potatoes (skin on), greens and popcorn. Also fiber one bars are yummy!

Omg I eat a large baked sweet potato after almost every morning workout. Baked in the oven (the only way!) and totally plain or with hot sauce. So satisfying and uber healthy! It's helped my lose lbs!

Forgive yourself. We all have moments of weakness. Look ahead!

Good luck to you and hang in there. I'm on your same dosage and have had success losing but thats b/c my levels are super stable which did take a while. Patience is easier said than done. Enlist your endocrinologist to allow you the highest safe dosage possible. And continue to listen to your body!

I am 5'4" age 46 and maintaining around 127lb. Not sure about my body fat but I exercise 4x week and maintain at around 1500 cals but always eat back my exercise cals. Nice to hear from all the ladies over 40!!

More power to you!

I quit wearing underwear running and I like it better!

Congratulations on your weight loss! Maybe you guys should talk to a professional? Wishing you all the best...

You did good, sister! Keep communicating! You sound like a wise person already. Take care of you and love will come again!

Good luck; letting go of longstanding friends is hard to do and not always worth the end result. I have a friend of 20+ years who actually said my best friend's probable divorce makes her feel better about her unmarried (read spinster) status!! Go and cultivate with your new lady friends and look for others. Stay the…

Congrats on your loss! When I lost 8ish pounds I could not stop admiring myself. Lol! I got comments at 15lbs. Don't you worry - just keep doing what you're doing!

I always leave calories for a few glasses of wine! When in doubt, dilute with seltzer to make it go farther. Long live the grape!

I really enjoy making quesadillas with Tumaro brand high fiber low carb tortillas. They are only 60 or 70 cals each so you can customize a quesadilla with veggies/salsa/low fat cheese easily for 300-400 cals. Also great as a bread or bun substitute. Good luck!

You are welcome to add me; I love being of service and supporting people! Currently I'm maintaining a 15lb loss and still excited every day.

Keep up the good work!!
