Weighing less and feeling more like a person

I'd like to follow you and see this tho lol

You're only gonna eat chocolate & get your calories from md and wine? I think by the end of the day you're gonna want real food lol.. But hey, stranger things have happened (the twinkie diet) lol

I'm at my halfway point too.. Got about 40 til i'm sarisfied, then maybe more from there

Hopefully gas.. I don't want surgery and downtime and all that

I have my gall bladder, yes. I use light ranch most times, but even without it is the same.. Just raw brocoli, if i eat it steamed it doesnt seem to have the same effect. Im thinking & wondering if it could actually be my intestine, but would i feel it in my back? Maybe it's the brocoli doing its fiber thing?

I'm not sure.. Its right in the middle of my back all the way across... Broccoli hurts my back. I love the stuff tho man

I now have a neck

Wow wow wow!!!! I am so happy for you!!! Congratulations x 100000000!!

I don't really have a quote.. It's just been something my conscience tells me when i'm frusterated & not seeing the results i want.. "Lets see what happens if i just keep going" Whenever i get discouraged i tell myself "just keep going.. Lets see what happens" It seems so simple but honestly it has "kept me going" lol

I agree with the first part of your statment, but ACTUALLY, a "normal sized woman" is a 12-14. No where near a 2 or 4.. BUT, nothing wrong with a 2 or 4 either. Everybody's different.

Focus on where you come from & where you're going. Your own personal satisfaction shouldn't be impacted by models.. They're models for a fitness app, so i think they should be fit.. Isn't that what we're working towards? I know i'll never be a size 2 and i'm so okay with that. I'll be happy when i make it to a 14. But that…

I'm still obese.. But yeah, i'll have to go with not worrying about calories.. At the same time i wish i'd cared sooner.. It's a bigger deal than people know. Meh, we're working on it now. I miss copius amounts of chocolate. Lol

COFFEE❤️ (love how you typed it so i had to lol) Veggie straws

Find a moisturizing daily cleanser for your hair.. I like clear. Very nice

Idk why it always cuts off some of my post... Anyway.. Hidden valley dry mix seasoning 1 cup kraft olive oil mayo 1 cup whole milk ( even lower calories if you wanted to use skim or something.. Do the math) Follow directions Bam... 25 calories per tbsp You're welcome

Ive yet to succeed the 8 glasses of water but i did manage 7... So today its 8!! No matter how much coffee i drink!! Lol

Also wanted to add its under 500 calories and salt free.. Add salt if u want

It kind of sounds like it's a little deeper than someone telling you to not think of foods as "healthy, & unhealthy" Seems like it may be something you need to work through. It kind of sounds like your relationship with food is unhealthier than the unhealthy food. Try to relax. Maybe try talking to a professional to work…

Sometimes when people see you all the time the change is so gradual they barely notice.. Keep going

Tbh, that's how i started.. 40 lbs all together down. It's been 5 months & I'm still as motivated as ever

Also, i was gonna go over my calories for a slive of veggie pizza but totally not going to now lol

This terrifies me lol

8 glasses of water, try to eat more fruit

Try a sugar free iced coffee... Im not sure the caloric difference but it might suffice.. It'll suck at first but itll help

But if im under calorie goal everyday, And im not losing like im supposed to then im frusterated and i AM frusterated

Also i bought a new more accurate scale which reads 2 lbs heavier than the one I started with, which is also frusterated but admittedly i believe is more accurate because it says the same thing each time i weigh, and the other one jumps a lot & isn't consistent. So in a sense i feel i have taken a couple stepa backwards…

I asked my doctor before and he just said "idk" So i was like ok, must not be a big deal.. I DO comsume a lot of sodium (ive recently been looking and noticed) also I don't hydrate properly which i am also working on. I just havent been pulling a 2 lb loss each week, its more like 2 per month and its frusterating me cause…

And it's not like consistently i hold a certain amount, some days are better than others

Yeah but when i say i retain water, it's actually really sever in the am, swollen tight hands, feeling puffy all over ect..
