  • Yeah, I've been thinking that if it was diabetes it would be type 2 but I just find it weird that it's manifesting itself almost two years after I've made a big lifestyle change. I don't know much about diabetes though so I'm just guessing really, so I could very well be wrong. And yeah I know that anxiety attacks can be…
  • Thanks for the advice so far, and I'm not asking you to diagnose me, I'm just asking for tips and if anyone has had an experience with this sort of thing. Tomorrow I will book an appointment since today is Sunday and my local clinic is closed, I just came to ask if there are any ideas. I doubt it's anxiety since I already…
  • Yes, lately I've been getting really sick of doing it. It wasn't a problem for the first year, but the closer I am to my goal the more tiring it gets for me. It's weird because I should be used to it, but honestly it has been making me really anxious for the past few months.
  • Thanks everyone, I think I will rest for a bit because I feel weak again and I think it might be because I was too impatient (also sorry for the late reply, I have a really bad habit of forgetting to answer threads I have started). But I have seen a few people say that you should eat at a maintenance while you are sick so…
  • No I didn't get the vaccine, but I will make sure I will next year. And oh god, that long? Damn, I was looking forward to going back to my old routine but after the failed attempt earlier today I'm again feeling weak and sleepy. I thought it would be okay to exercise after my fever disappeared but after this I think I'll…
  • Thanks for all the advice, and you're right, I shouldn't be mentioning I have 7 kg left, not sure why I do that to be honest haha. And I have been thinking that maybe I should possibly try to gain some muscle after I have reached my goal weight. I have pretty small hips and butt compared to my shoulders and I absolutely…
  • Well, to be fair I still draw and I'm proud of the progress so far, but I used to make it get in the way of losing weight. You can absolutely lose weight and still have art as a hobby. I still draw when I'm not working out, but I've started to draw a lot of work out inspired drawings admittedly haha. I just put a little…
  • It's currently set to 1250 but I used to have it 1325.
  • Yeah I'm using a food scale. I eat about maybe 100 gr of Greek Yogurt, add 1/2 tbsp of honey (I know it's a lot but I really love that combination) and I usually add about 10 gr of granola and 10 gr of pistachios. I usually eat around 30 gr of all bran in the morning with a splash of skimmed milk. Those keep me full for a…
  • Yeah I actually have my eye on some clothes that I can buy in the next size down. I originally awarded myself for weight lost by buying some clothes I want but I'm starting to think that's not the best idea, at least not right now since I'm obsessed with the scale. I am super happy though because all my pants started to…
  • Yeah could be. I do weigh my food on a scale though, so I don't know if that is the issue, but it does make sense. Some of the foods I eat aren't in the MFP registry because they are of Icelandic origin but I usually read the nutritional information and I try to calculate circa how much I eat and how many calories it has…
  • Yeah I had my TOM a week ago so I don't think it's related but I always keep my eye on that and I know that my weight fluctuates the week before and I always get super hungry. I know it isn't fat, but I'm just always worried about the number on the scale. It's dumb, I know and I need to get tougher, I just never want to be…
  • Yeah that makes sense. I had that doubt as well, but I was so happy from losing that weight so I didn't think much of it. I'm just scared that I won't be able to lose much weight for the next months because of this. I know it's normal for weight loss to slow down when you're smaller but it's disheartening to me. I recently…
  • Yeah I know it's not healthy. I do weigh myself first thing in the morning before I do anything else and so far it has worked well. I know about the water retention and I've been wondering if that is the issue, but I drink 2 liters and sometimes more of water everyday. I am thirsty though late at night despite drinking 2…
  • Thank you all for replying, really appreciate it. Now that I look back on it I feel silly for letting it get in the way of walking. Just needed a little bit of reassurance since I'm a bit weak when it comes to pain so I didn't wanna risk it taking longer to heal in case walking would somehow hurt it more. I have applied…
  • Aww thanks, that's very sweet of you. And yeah it's getting better, it's swelling a bit but it's not too bad. I will try the ice pack trick, thanks :smile:
  • I just took the bandage off and it hurts a lot less without it, so I think it was a wrong type of bandage definitely. I applied some Aloe Vera on it and that stung a lot worse than the disinfectant I applied but I can walk a little easier. It still stings though, but even just lightly touching the area around it hurts even…
