No. You are not alone, not at all actually. I have been a size 4 to 18 and that is usually within a year. I go back down and get back up. I have probably lost and gained somewhere around 500lbs in my lifetime. I have to realize my first step is that I have an extremely unhealthy relationship with food, and it is taking its…

Hey all! I am Kelly. I have struggled with my weight my whole life and particularly with my relationship with food. In my closet I have sizes ranging from XS to XXL all of which have fit me in the past two years. I have starved myself to near hospitalization, I have abused exercise, laxatives and purged, I have eaten well…

I was just (two weeks ago) diagnosed with Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism, I have started medication (synthroid) and I am also unconventionally treating my symptoms by increasing my selenium intake and cutting out gluten. I have lost a few pounds in the last week without counting calories and have just recently started counting…

29, but being an hour glass figure it will easily be 23 by the time my hips have caught up.

Every time I ever really lost weight before I did not count calories technically. I did write down or record everything I ate though. I think that sometimes seeing that number, for some people, like myself, it sabotages the bigger picture. There are days where I am stuffed on 900-1000 calories and days where I eat 2000…

Height: 5'9 CW: 200 GW: 140 I want to tone and tighten up more than anything, I want to be able to rock cute summer clothes!

It does seem kind of dead here!

Exactly how I am, and I tried to watch the movies multiple times, but I could never really get into the them.

I know this is a long shot since this group isn't active but I would love to meet some Wyoming MFPers. I live in Laramie and am a student at UW currently.

Hey lady! I will add you, I am 24 a grad student and living in WY (your upstairs neighbor, yes people actually live in this state)

Laramie, Wyoming

Added! I would love to help you since we are in similar boats, I understand the harsh school schedule mixed with tying to eat right and exercise.

Metabolism is weird sometimes and for some people. I dated a guy who could not put on weight, no matter what. I would watch him eat two large pizzas and drink a six pack nearly every night, or some variation. He probably ate about 5000+ calories a day and never worked out. He was very thin and the weight he did have on him…

I love 7even and express jeans. I think it has to do with height and my pear shape, but they tend to fit me much better. For my I have a hard time finding tops that are not belly shirts as my torso is very long.

For some reason I go into ketosis super easy, usually takes me a couple hours, around 12 for trace amounts of ketones, 24 for full dark purple to set in. I can feel when I am in ketosis though. My close feel start to loosen and I feel thinner.

This sounds like a great strategy to tackle the holidays!

I cannot agree more. I just started keto so maybe I am not an expert, but the weight is falling off and maybe it is water weight. However I have also lost about 6 inches and I am consistently over my calories. With that said I do not want to steer anyone in the wrong direction. I run a lot and never eat back my calories…

Heck no, I love the way spandex breathes!

Today I upped my calories too, after finding my TDEE. I am 5'9 and run almost an hour or more everyday (sprint intervals) and I was only eating 1300 calories, I was not sleeping and my head was hurting at times. I upped my calories to 1700 but I may even go above that I am not sure, I will note that I am starting to lift…

Plateaus occur, they can happen for a number of reasons. Too much salt, too much water not enough salt or water. The body has so many biological processes going on it is hard o perfectly balance everything. I have heard people talk about refeeding, where you go over your calories deliberately for a short period of time and…

It feels good to get this out, even if no one ever reads it. I was in a really bad relationship last year, I was unhappy but put my whole life into someone and he could not do that for me. I don't blame him, we both made a lot of mistakes and acted in a way I think we are both ashamed of now. I isolated myself from my…
