You are eating meals a person that wants to lose weight eats from what you describe.

I am dealing with the same issue. I don't have a thyroid and taking a synthroid (T4) only. I have fatigue, sore legs, hair loss, depression and hard to loss weight! I went to my doctor yesterday to ask if we added T3 to the mix, if it might help. So I will be starting with low dose 5g to see if I get any better. Because I…

Love all the advise. Thank you everyone!

I bring cooked salmon patties I made at home, cooked ground turkey with low carb tortillas, shredded cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, onion, Avocado, sweet potato to make in microwave at work, split pea soup, homemade chili, chicken breast, steamed carrots. I scramble eggs (no fat or butter used) to last four days and bring to…

mental health professionals need a therapist to help with the issue they have to deal with and keep from transferring the issues to themselves which can cause depression Most therapists have their own therapist for this very reason. So it goes with mental health professionals

I don't feel it is my job to judge others on this site. I would not delete anyone unless they were causing problems with what they post.. i.e. hurtful or mean comments. I am an adult and can take what I like and leave the rest. I make my own decisions. I don't allow others to make them for me. I can't always post as much…

Austin Texas has soooo many hiking trails within the city limits. Love to hike. Using this as one of my ways to exercise!

I eat clean. I go organic if I can afford it. I don't eat boxed or processed foods ever! I eat chicken breast, complex carbs, protein shakes, fruit, veggies (don't eat as much of this as I feel I should). Salmon, eggs and turkey as well, Don't drink sodas of any kind. Water, milk, fresh lemon aid. Eat oatmeal, organic…

Thank you everyone. I am losing slowy. Not that I want to, but it want it is. Eating right and exercising is the way I going.

Yep. Seen it on TV. Not pretty and causes problems. Just wanted to know everyone's experiences. I was hoping the problems were in the minority.

I don't have to have a tight stomach, just don't want the excessive LARGE hanging skin that falls way down the body that you have to tuck in. That SCARES ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am 56 and been overweight for about 20 yrs. This worries me too about sagging skin.

Thank you! That is very encouraging! Thank you for sharing.

Agreed. Don't feel guilty. I understand feeling bad about not exercising, but life happens and we have to roll with it. Just start back today. You are golden.

Yes, I log my exercises on here. Thanks for the advise. I will try that. I weight in tonight. Will see how the week went. Have a great day!

"In my opinion, having an idea of your BMR and your TDEE is an excellent place to start. No, they aren't set in stone, but they are definitely a good starting point. :) " I don't know. Someone kindly pointed out to me that the 1500 calories was probably my net calories. This makes more sense. That would put be at eating…

I won't freak out. I have to set a goal so I work hard. I hate to exercise and I have to push myself. Goals seem to work for me. I know I may not lose all the weight, but if I don't set it high, I tend to slack off. I like this - "This is why higher calories is beneficial, because it gives you room to drop your calories by…

Hahahahaha! You told her. She was not a happy person to begin with. So glad you spoke up.
