Isn't great when someone else notices that you are looking slimmer and healthier? I think that is one of the best motivation boosters ever! Keep up the great work and thanks for the boost for us too!

Thanks...good info...

I like these recipes....I just made some Indian Red Curry Chicken today in the crock pot. Just put 3 breast halves in with 1/2 cup water, salt & pepper, and heat on high for 4 hours, Add a bag of baby carrots and a jar of Red Curry cooking sauce (Pataks) Heat through . Shred chicken and serve over brown rice. About 300…

Im doing the same thing at night....after dinner...I think I see that I have some leftover cals and I go overboard when I start eating. It doesn't even have to be junk food. Fruit I think is not good to eat too much of because of the sugar and I have been known to eat several bananas, apples, pear,s or whatever just…

Hi...I have a personal question for....sorry...I havent had bloodwork done for about 6 months so I dont know what my prolactin level is at now. But , I have been having unusual symptoms that Im a bit afraid of. For one I cannot lose any more weight no matter what kind of food I eat or how much I exercise. Two: my breasts…

I need more blood work done next month so I'm stil not taking anything to regulate the prolactin levels. I am taking Desmopressin nasal spray for my ADH deficiency though, and since I started it last June I have gained 10 more pounds. Coincidence or no? Not sure but I know I am eating about an average of 1600 cals daily…

At 5'10" and 49 years old I am at my all time heaviest weight of 240 lbs!! Yikes! My goal as of now is 190 but lower would be a heavenly gift. I have always weighed between 150 and 160 and looking back I looked pretty thin, although I was always convinced I was a cow.. Now I long for those Days! My smallest clothes size…

Oops that's just Vladdie....my grandpup! All these pets are just so cute!

Let me try this.....My pups and grandpup! Casey, Harlin, and Vladdie......

I'm only taking Desmopressin currently for my ADH. Havent been really medicated for the high prolactin levels yet. I see my Endo next month and I'm gonna ask about the Bromocryptin. What does it do? The side effedts dont sound like much fun but if it helps with feeling better overall, maybe I should try it. How is you…

You look so good.....congrats and keep up the great work! Please add me as a friend as I would like to keep motivated by your success to reach my own goals. What other exercise are you doinng besides the awesome pushups?

Thanks for the information...I am going to have to change my diet quite a bit I guess (carbs are my life!) I guess more fish and veggies would work? And more nice long walks ....my dogs will love me for that! Any recipes or meal ideas would be great if you have any. Good luck to you also on finding the right mix of meds.

Yep...Me ...5'101/2"...since age 15 or 16. Mom is 5'4" maybe less. Dad is same as me about 5'10" to 5'11". Bro the shorty, 5'8"! He's also 5 yrs youngr and always wanted to be taller than me....still never happened LOL!

Hi...I'm so glad I finally found someone else who has a similar disorder as me! Not that its good but at least we can support each other. I have a thickened pituitary stem that has caused me to have Diabetes Insipidus as well as elevated prolactin level. At first I lost 10 lbs in a month but now that Im taking medication…

Hi...I'm 49 and feeling great! Except for the pounds that won't budge...Oh well...good to have support on here from people of all ages. But youre right about the lack or reduced amount of energy. It is def different than 10 years ago!

Im not a true diabetic but I do have Diabetes Insipidus....newly diagnosed about 10 months. Its more of a water loss problem..have to take medicine or I will dehydrate! Also doing the menapause thing! I have been dieting off and on all my life and have always been able to lose weight successfully ....until now....No matter…

Just wondering....what kinds of foods should one eat when needing to increase calories but not carbs, sugars, or fats? Any recipes or suggestions?

Thank you for putting into writing what many have thought for awhile but were too afraid to say it!! :drinker:

Depression is tough to beat ...add me if you like. The more friends the better to stay focused!

Same here...lost about 20 lbs 2 years ago and then gained back all plus 10!! Very depressed right now over 200+ is not fun... Need some motivation. Empty nest with my girls gone, hubby LOVES pizza and its all bringing me down. :( I guess just looking for that Kick In the A** needed to get back on track.

How about an entire LARGE bag of peanut M &M's? Over the course of about one day....didnt even calculate the calories but the guilt rating ....about 100!

RN supervisor in a long term acute care facility. 11pm to 7:30 - 8 am. Been on nights for 7 years and have slowly gained over 25 pounds....have more computer stuff to do on nights and am too tired to do much exercise. I know what I need to do but have lost my motivation to get moving....Im thinking lack of sunlight might…

I'm also a nurse working 11p - 730a. Very different eating pattern than most people. Biggest downfall: all the high fat, high carb, high sugar stuff sitting in the break room. I'm a carb junky and havent found a satisfying replacement yet. Lunch overnight is usually yogurt, salad, fruit, or sometimes coworkers bring in…
