@jm216 Thanks so much for doing that, Jill. 🌹☺️

Thanks for the prayers. :) I agree with Amanda that you should get rid of the cake. Give it to someone so it can't tempt you.

@jm216 Very nice...you just might hit the ones by the end of the month! @nannerkay I hope this new plan really helps with your cravings. My husband is very much like that too. He has to have sugar. I will be interested to see how it works for you.

Lordy, I feel like a complete dummy because I finally saw the link I was provided was there all the time in the "must read" section of Health and Weight Loss. I will say I find this site a bit hard to navigate but I am getting older and I know what that does because I have seen it. I guess I have graduated from middle age…

@joans1976 You are so close now I am holding the fizzy pops and whiz bangs...You got this!

That is true. But I was speaking to the posts where people have been on a longer duration of little to no weight loss and posters were suggesting too low calorie deficit. But thank you for your input.

Thank you for your response. I did address that in an earlier comment. I am sure you missed it. That is a common occurrence and a valid concern.

@PAV8888 Thank you so much for your insight and help.

You did it! Congratulations!!!!!!!!! 🥳

@AnnPT77 Thank you again. A lot of info. I think the info on taking "breaks" is really interesting. So much more to read.

Thank you. I will read the link. I think what you are linking to would suggest the same thing that I have come to understand. Some people overdo calorie deficit to the point of starvation....like anorexia....just not the disease. Although, I guess it could lead to that.

Yep, that would be overdoing and I agree adjusting is always very good. But aren't you saying the same thing? In the end, it is a calorie deficit within reasonable parameters that equals weight loss? Aren't you just pointing out how they might be overdoing and setting themselves up for a downfall? That's what I was getting…

I have no idea of what you are speaking about. Pretend, for a moment, I am a baby...lol What are you saying....in layman's terms? I mean it. Speak plainly. If there is something more I need to consider then please explain.

Yes, I agree. I was going to say basic anorexia....but that is not quite right. But I do agree and think I have more understanding.

I will say this helps me understand what happens when people lower their calories to a point they stall or won't lose any weight. I know this sounds dumb on my part but I never considered people who just slowed down to that point where the weight stalled. So thanks!

Thank you. That is what I thought. So, when I am reading these replies people are just trying to get to the bottom of what is happening with these individuals.

Ok so you're saying what I thought the first posted suggested. I do get that many times people don't count calories quite right, either because they are guesstimating or because they want to plug in numbers they know look good and not being honest with what they are really consuming. But I guess what I am hearing is if you…
