OMG, I too went to the ER thinking that I'm having a heart attack! I was strapped to the EKG for 4 hours! Doctor said everything is normal and gave me Femotadine. Two weeks ago I went to the company holiday party and had a few sips of a Cosmo, that night when I lay down, I felt gurgeling feeling in my stomach! I never had…

I'm glad this is issue is being discussed! I too have been having problems lately and I can name the day it started! it was on Wednesday, August 6, everything was fine in the morning, later that day I walked home from work about 5 miles, then went home and had a large salad followed by popcorn and I haven't been the same…

My doctor told to drink whey protein,. My trainer told me to use Isopure. Very good!!! not a powder but a ready drink in melon apple. It has 40g of whey protien zero carbs. they ready shakes are good to without causing bloating!!!

I love them! I take them to work and have then with slissed tomotoes! My favs are tomato basil and buffalo chicken!!!

I hate those scales. 4 weeks ago I weighed myself at work in front of my colleague and was shocked to see that I weighed 158lbs. That afternoon I almost walked into Manhattan trafic, I was like a zombie. I feel better now and will not weigh myself again. I'm happy you didn't despair and are strong. You will do it!!!!

Italy!

I had some injuryies and coulding run. If you have a friend who knows boxing, you can have a great workout hitting the mitts. Also, if your gym has TRX suspension training! I hope your recovery is quick!!!

Tomorrow is a new day!!!!

I did Atkins years ago, I did lose weight quickly without exercising. You should occaisionally add an apple to your diet to keep "regular". I couldn't do it now, I'm older and need exericise to lose weight. Good luck!!!

Maybe it's too much protien? Eat some fruit. Years ago I was doing Atkins and was eating too much protien and felt heavy and bloated, so I added some fruit to "help out". Don't despair and don't give up.

You can add me as a friend. I have a personal trainer and we box at home I also started running again after a year of injury!

You can add me too. I need to lose 30lbs. just started running again. I work in a Australian investment bank with HOT Aussies. What type of exercises are you doing for weight?

Thank you, I will try this too!!!

Hi Tracy, I have the same problem. Hurts so much after running and I feel it all night like a dull pain. My trainer told me to use Arnica gel and it's helping with the pain. I too do not want to stop, it is the only way I can lose weight, plus it feels good!

OMG, i had hip issues to. I've always been a runner (to keep in shape). last year I had extreme pain in my right hip. I couldn't run, it didn't hurt during running, but after. I even felt the while in bed. It got so bad that it hurt to walk. I gained 20lbs since last year. My personal trainer told me to see a sports doc.…

I agree with the two previous comments. Tomorrow is a new day!!!

My cat is my family! how many do you have?

Most of my friends are married with children and they all tell me how lucky I am to free to travel and keep a clean and well decorated apartment. As soon as I lose 35 lbs, I will get myself a young, hot boyfriend to complete the package!

Me too, over forty and no kids!

Many times I've been offered a seat on the train :embarassed:

Hi Shiela, I think it's just a disclaimer - keep doing what you're doing!!!

Add me as a friend and let me know your progress. I have to lose 23lbs. I hired a personal trainer (very handsome) and he's been a great help to me, I also have some work colleagues who are using MFP!

You can do it by Sept, even sooner!

how much weight do you want to lose?

First thing I want to say to you is that I work for ANZ Bank in New York, I love you Aussies! Keep loging in your meals and snacks, keep it to 1,200 calories and exercise. You're very young, the weight should come off easily!!!

I'm Italian and I can give you some ideas! You can make a Fritatella! : 1 egg beatten with some chopped onion and some crushed, dried mint flakes. Mix all together and fry in a pan. Let it spread the whole pan. when done, you can slice like a thin pizza and eat with a slice of toast. Or some cheese (good cheese like Greek…

Feel free to add me as a friend. I give great support!!! There are 5 of us in the office using MFP!

Welcome back to MFP. Feel free to add me for support. I too joined recently and need support!!!

I'm Italian and work for a big Austarlian bank in NYC. You Aussies are great!!!! You're very friendly and fun to be with. I love working with them!

I'm really sorry you're going through this. Last year when I went to visit my family, as soon as I walked in the door, my mother said "Mama mia, sie una patata". Translation, "mama mia, you're a potato". Families think because they've known for so long and you're stuck with them they can say or do anything without…
