I think it's just the way your body hold weight. I'm 170 pounds, down from 235, and I'm in a size 6/8 pants (US) now. I don't think mine is all muscle but I lift weights to preserve as much lean mass as I can while I lose body fat. But I'll be interested to see what others have to say.

Could you please stop? I'm just trying to look for motivational friends.

I tried it, it is really hard for me to now binge after a long fast.

Will do! I've set small goals for the rest of the weightloss. Hoping they'll help motivate me!

Thank you guys so much!

I'll add you! :)

Thanks, I will!

That's awesome that you're finding a way to get your steps in staying in. I'll add you!

Haha! That's actually a great idea. I've been brushing my teeth when I get cravings right now. It seems to do ok, but I'm not always in a place I can practice good oral hygiene.

That's great advice. Cravings for higher calorie food are really getting to me!

I tried that, but I just got so hungry in between. I don't think I could sustain it for very long without binging.

I'll add you! I have been just maintaining since the holidays. I'm having trouble getting back to it.

Hoping to meet at least a few new friends!

My boobs and hips. I still have plenty left, so I was happy with it.

5'6" Starting weight: 210 size 16/18 Current weight: 165 size 6/8

I'm halfway to my goal. But 210 was my starting weight. You can do it! I'm 40 pounds down now. No looking back!

10% (20 pounds) of my weight before people noticed. It took me longer. Sometimes I still can't see it. I'm 40 pounds down now.

I like veggies and have many fruits. I have strawberries and banana for breakfast and an apple for snack, I also love berries, they just aren't in season. The problem I have with veggies is that they have to have something on them for me to enjoy them, butter, cheese, dressing. I haven't been able to shake the high…

That's a great idea! I will go to the pharmacy tomorrow and check it.

You have a good point. Yesterday was a bit different than normal (boyfriends birthday, he wanted those things for food, plus the first soda in forever just for the caffeine!). But I know that I certainly don't hit my macros very well. It's just something that I haven't taken the care to do. I will start being more…

Yes ma'am. I will make sure the one I pick out has those supplements in them. I'm walking to the store later today.

Thank you everyone. I made a doctor's appointment, but it's 3 weeks out. In the mean time I'm picking up a multi vitamin and eating back my exercise calories better.

Yeah. I'll make an appointment. I'm just tight on cash this month.

Typically between 1450 - 1600.

I do not take a multivitamin. But I certainly could start.

Not at all. I feel so lazy. I'll add you! Any accountability buddies are good for me!

That's awesome! Congratulations!

It hit me hard. I got so unmotivated as fall and the holiday season came. So hopefully I do better this year! Congratulations on hitting halfway!

Ditto.

1-2 pounds. Alcohol dehydrates me, so if I drink the night before I see a 2-4 pounds drop.
