@charita - i have read about yeast and wondered... my immune system has definitely been compromised by the black mold. I will look into it further. I don't do sugar (maybe 1x/month) and never do yeast of any sort due to my extreme allergic reactions to it, so that shouldn't be a problem. But, thank you sooooo much for…

All great ideas...I will take all into consideration and put into action that is possible with my restrictions! Mental notes: I am not counting exercise to add back in calories at all; A cheat day sounds extravagant!; printing out my food log is a great idea to show my doctor; changing doctors probably would be better :);…

@LEMON ON WHEELS - OK...I'm reading the same thing everywhere on this site! I will try to eat more and will keep posting my progress! Thanks to everyone!

@Hummingbird...thanks for the advice about the endocrinologist. I will give that a try once I find a job again and can afford it! Guess I figured a family doctor would be knowledgeable and treat it. Blessings!

Aren't you two the cutest couple ever! I am actually consuming between 900 and 1200 calories per day. I thought the same thing about "starvation mode" but there seems to be such controversy about that now, and I find it difficult to eat much more, primarily due to all of the foods I am allergic to! No wheat, gluten, eggs,…

I'm allergic to eggs, but I will watch to be sure I'm getting protein in those percentages from other sources. Thanks so much!

Very frustrating too because everyone keeps telling me I'm doing all the right things. It just isn't working. Other suggestion was thyroid, which tests within normal range, albeit on the low side, but conventional medical physicians don't seem to want to do anything until it actually registers way to low.

Well, perhaps not enough protein. IDK. But, I eat some at every meal except one when I eat a big salad...i put Sunflower Seeds on it instead of meat. I will watch the protein intake. Thanks for helping. i ReALLY appreciate your trying to understand and help, because I am more concerned about my health going into this stage…

In all honesty! I NEVER go over the 1200 cal/day !!!!!!! And I DO use a food diary online !!! I have told my doctor this and he just keeps telling me... calories in must be less than calories burned. I keep telling him that they ARE !!! Very frustrating! The only thing I can say that I do wrong is I do not drink enough…

Thanks for replying. I am a 54 year old female, 5' 7" 185#. I have always been a very slender gal, never weighing more than 135# until I had a hysterectomy in 1999. I gained about 20#, but it leveled off and I could live with that. Then, I lived in a house full of black mold and have developed tons of food…

Just by your photo, it appears to be pear? My guess only. Gees, I often have the same question, because even tho I personally hate my stomach/ab/hip/butt areas more than the rest of me, but lately my weight is showing up more and more all over my entire body! My question for you is...what is the importance of understanding…
