I had my gallbladder removed in 2011. Also never had issues until I lost 50lbs on a real low calorie and unhealthy diet an expensive dietician put me on. Thing is once I had it removed I never had any issues with food. Maybe I'm unsure of what the negative side effects are and consider them normal. I started paleo again,…

I agree with what everyone has said. And consulting with a doctor isn't always the best either since many doctors believe eating 1200 calories a day, which is unleahty for anyone. Do your calculations on this page that I will post, and do not select higher than a 15% cut, and also I would say you are doing moderate to…

I'm brand new to the whole SL concept as well. Was told about it and downloaded the PDF, I did not finish reading it yet. Hope I understand it well enough to start. :-)

Also looking into finding more Paleo friends on here...

I'm guessing this doesn't get update often....

I don't see why you would go down 20 lbs you are at a very healthy weight according to your height. Actually a little under currently. Maybe you should work on strengthening and toning and it'll change your body as well. Wish you well and health!

Awesome job! You look younger, healthier, and happier! Amazing transformation and a work in progress. Very inspiring, and I hope to be as successful as you! Thanks for sharing your success story!

Awesome job! You look amazing! Congrats to you and all your hard work!

I remember when I was 145, nice figure and all, but I was a size 9 in jeans, and I'm 5'5" ... Don't remember seeing a 4 ever lol .. Good for you!

That is awesome! Congrats on your accomplishment!

I'm on the eat more to weigh less state of mind, but I have days that I don't make time for all my food... But my goal is high! Good for all of you out there succeeding!

How often does the chart get updated? Thanks!

Hey all... Well to start I tweaked mine a few times, and settled with 15/60/25... I try to get 50-100g of carbs a day, but only healthy natural carbs. Which come from fruits, veggies, and nuts, etc. The fat I eat is all natural, and healthy fats as well. Comes from the meats, avocados, oils (coconut, olive), and for…

Mine is in the 40s% unfortunately... I'm taking this from my scale and calculations online. My goal is also 20%... Wondering how and how long it'll take to get there.... Good luck ladies on your journey!

It is too low, whether you are trying to lose, maintain, or gain. You need to go to http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/ and do the calculations. I did them based on your sex, height, weight, and age. YOUR NUMBERS Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): (to just live, without counting any physical activity) 1497 Daily…

Anyone from Jersey?

Anyone from any part of NJ?

Thanks ladies.... It's going good so far. Just got to get myself into the working out concept. I've got the eating down pretty good, and am feeling awesome. Just need to get the fitting in my physical activity other than my everyday activities. I eat a piece of cheese once every week or two weeks. Don't have any raw dairy…

Awesome! I too have pcos and plan on getting myself back into shape, the healthy way, with the right food and the right amount of exercise. No starvation here or over exercising. I wanna kick pcos in the butt! It's possible to reverse pcos, and its one of my many goals! You look amazing and you must feel it too!

Add me too! I'm also on the em2wl journey plus I also just went primal/paleo a month ago!

Awesome! I can't believe how many dress sizes you dropped and weight in pounds wasn't a major change. Scales are nothing in this world but a stress factor. Great job and I hope to be as successful!

@hilliardjoe Thanks for posting. I've been feeling a lot better since I started on the 7th. My clothes fits better, I don't feel so bloated and heavy. Of course I still am pretty heavy, but I feel like my sides and back have gone done. As far as measurements and lbs I need to recheck them since I started but I don't want…

@skwidlund Thanks for contributing. I am eating what you've mentioned but I've wanted to add more for variety. I want to try the digestive enzymes and the ox bile because I've also been feeling a little bloated and a little pain because of gas. So, I'm hoping its nothing major and that these supplements can help. :-)

@Cerebrus. I was in the ER when it got to getting sick non stop for 12 hours, husband rushed me in because I felt like I was going to die. Of course I hadn't been diagnosed with galbladder issues, the quack of a dr I had just said that I had acid reflux. Was checked and ultrasound showed my galbladder was inflamed and had…

That's totally awesome and completely inspiring! Looking forward to some amazing results as well! Congrats!

What weight training are you doing?

Thanks Anitra, I don't know how everyone is able to find specific topics so easily, and I on the other hand need to go through each one and there's a lot. :-/

Awesome! Quick question though, how do you change your percentages on MFP for protein, carb and fat? Can't find that :-( Thanks!

I'm also new on here and if there are other members that have been doing this and find it successful, who wouldn't mind answering some questions when they come up let me know and request me as well. Thanks!
