That sounds like a plan. I will look into getting back to my therapist. Thank you all for your comments and advice. It's good to know I'm not alone.

Yes. Thank you.

Thank you for your words

I am safe. For the time being. But I understand what you are saying. Thank you.

Lean meats, fruit, I stopped carbs but caught myself eating small portions of crackers or 2-3 handfuls of cereal. Not overdoing it, but worried because I was staying away from carbs. Mainly protein. it's only been 2 days I've been feeling like this.

Thank you for the support

Thanks.

Since Oct I lost 25-30 pounds eatting this way. I just never counted calories. Like I said I was almost 200 pounds. Now I'm 168.

Oh ok.

How did you loose 6 pounds in 4 weeks being sedentary? My calorie limit is 1,390 and am trying to loose 1 lb per weight. I went from 195 to 168 in 6 months. Kinda slow. But how do you manage to eat only 1,200 calories. I'm hungry trying to do that.

Hi. I was 195 in Oct and I'm 168 now. I'm sedentary. As long as you count calories or stick with proteins, fats, and fiber. You will lose it. I have always been 130 so almost hitting 200 really affected my confidence. Hang in there. Add me so we can stay in touch.

It took me 6 months to lose 30 pounds. No exercise but restricted my calories to mainly protein and fats.

Who knows? I read a lot of success stories about CLA. But it depends on your body's reaction to it. So it may or may not work. Worth a try. Lots of negative people on this site! Good luck!

I'm 5'4 and weigh 168 pounds. Trying to get to 130 but I'm curvy.

Thank you

I did not know I couldn't use a word that you figured was a curse word by filling the blank. Lol. I'll never lose weight on .5 lbs a week. I think I lost faster in 5 months (25 pounds) on about 1,600-1,700 calories. I stopped counting calories 2 months so I'm back looking to lose 30 pounds sooner than 5 months.

Can you explain keto diet? Does it have to do with Ketosis? Burning fat instead of carbs?

Cheat not chest! Lol!

Thank you so much for all of your replies and diary entries. I am lactose and glucose intolerant so my diet is protein from meats, fiber from fruits and veggies, some condiments for flavor, and my chest is a daily diet coke. I've lost 25 pounds since Oct 1 without exercise. I went on Atkins before and lost 55 pounds same…

I was eating about 1,700 calories a day for about 1.5 months. Before, around 1575. I just started 1,390 3 days ago, so I realize I have to get used to the hunger. I still take the meds. They help. I'm lactose and glucose intolerant so my diet is very basic and repetitive. I'll just incorporate 1 tablespoon of coconut oil…

No because it's ritalin and provigil so I'll be awake at night

I was 195. I'm 168. Need 30 pounds to go too! I'd love to see your diary and compare.

I fast in the day but wake up about 4 times to eat chicken or a plant based shake and banana, or coldcuts. I was 195 and am 163 but gained 5 pounds drinking Starbucks frappucinos and lemon pound cakes for 2 weeks. Even though I eat at night, I still seem to be losing weight. As long as it's protein you're eating.

Thanks!

I don't know. I only eat during sleeping hours.

1390 to lose a pound a week. Some days I'm under. Some days I'm a tiny bit over.
