Here with you! I fell off the habit of writing down foods and exercise and stopped the weight loss and have stayed the same for about 4 months after losing 30 lbs. I would love to encourage you! Let's keep in touch and spur one another on! I look forward to the results I will get by being online and consistently working…

Im working with my doctor to break the cycle of yo yo weight gain and loss. At this point they have dropped the carbs to 30 a day and I have been loosing weight by about 2-3 lbs a week. Tons of veggies and meat. Try lowering the carbs from fruit (sugar) to veggies and see if that helps. I eat about 1800 calories daily and…

Start out a little at a time I use 1/4-1/2 teaspoon in water. Raspberry Lemon is good but it is very tart. Good luck. I have very tigh calf muscles and it seems to help…

what is "cool" in British terms?

Sorry to hear you are so down on yourself. Times are tough and being depressed doesn't help. In your pictures you have a small child, have you discussed this "down feeling" with your doctor, could you be experiencing post natal depression? I would suggest getting some support from your doctor and possibly join a mom's…
