Yeah, I might raise it at some point. I'll see how I get on. I'm feeling a little better now as I'm making a hot breakfast now, but if the problems persist then I'll try eating 1,800 calories a day or maybe even 2000.

I will try! Thank you!

Made this for breakfast today and I'm happy to report I feel much more satisfied and full having had a hot breakfast!

I thought the same thing! But then I thought because I'm quite big I would drop the weight quickly at first. Like on 600lb me they lose like 20-30lbs a month!

Thank you so much guys, I really appreciate the support and information. I feel much better now. I've decided to carry on weighing daily but instead of getting caught up on the fluctuations, to take the average of all those weights at the end of the week and follow the trend. The best thing that despite the annoying…

Thank you so much for that link! Really really helpful and makes a lot of sense. I'm gonna keep doing what I'm doing in terms of eating and exercising as and when I can. But I'm also gonna carry on weighing daily but work out my averages at the end of the week and record that, as the link suggests. That is a much better…

Honestly I've always had issues with sleep. I'm autistic/ADHD and we tend to have issues with sleep. I'm also addicted to scrolling on my phone before bed, which is really not helping!

That's encouraging to know, that it might not be a symptom of diabetes. But how do people cope with this? It's really frustrating :(

Hey guys, thank you for all the responses. Just reading through them now. The hunger seems okayish now. I think the main issue is breakfast. I am typically having Greek yogurt with bananas and granola, but I am coming to realise that I benefit more from big, hot meals. So I'm gonna start trying to make hot breakfasts…

I might be dehydrated as I often have a dry mouth. But even with drinking only 1.5l a day I am weeing constantly and it's so irritating. I am concerned I have T2D though, so I am getting a blood test to check.

Thank you. I should make them a bigger portion, you're right.

Perhaps it's because I've been mostly home cooking and I don't add salt to my food? I do add seasoning which has some salt. No pretzels left unfortunately! But I had a small slice of homemade pizza, some cucumber sticks and a piece of ham. I feel a little bit better but still empty. I dunno if it's just my body crying out…

That's really helpful, thank you! I didn't realise my fibre was low. Do you have any quick suggestions of what I can add for fibre?

Thanks for your reply! I'm not sure exactly how accurate my weight loss stats are as I started on a different scale and switched halfway but I started on the 12th Jan I think, weighed in at 313.1 on mechanical scales at the gym. I bought my own scale on the 20th and it said I was 309lbs. I've been weighing daily since then…

Yes, it definitely seems worse with not sleeping enough. I really need to sort that out.

That's useful to know. I think I am having enough salt/electrolytes but I'm not sure. Hopefully you guys can view my diary and let me know.

Okay, it's open now. Sorry about that!

Sorry guys, will make it open now.

I know this is literally years later but I just wanted to say you were right :D I was diagnosed October 2019 with autism and diagnosed in 2016 with ADHD!

Getting out of the 300s

Thanks :)

Hi :) I'm from London.

Just popping on here quickly cos I have tons of college work to do but just wanna say thank you so much for replying everyone! Also, thank you to the lovely lady who said I look nice in the bottom right picture, it's so appreciated! :flowerforyou:

You called? http://instagram.com/p/X7XhCDMnee/ Edit: Sowwweee, at work so can't post proper picture yet :(

Need I say more?

Thank you everyone for the replies! I got it taken out yesterday and, it might be psychosomatic, but I already feel like my cravings are reduced. I feel so much better with the artificial hormones out of my blood stream! Expect a thread from me in the next couple months, hoping to be at least 5lbs lighter by the end of…

Bump.

I can workout, but too busy/lazy too. I lost 42lbs without working out and on 1600 calories. It can be done :)

...yeaaah, best threaT ever :flowerforyou:

Argh, it messed up. Too tired to do it again. Thread = funny anyway. That is all. Goodnight.
