  • Yes, been to the doctor a few months ago, albeit 5 pounds ago. They weren't concerned, though they don't really know my natural weight. I'm not even 100% sure, but I do know I purposely restricted calories. When I wasn't, I was at least 100-105. Also want to mention aside from whatever my stomach is doing and these…
  • Hmmm I'm not so sure about "over eat" as a solution unless you were just eating a teeny weeny bit! But I've added things that are nutrient and calorie dense I suppose. Like peanutbutter, nuts, bananas, yogurt, avocado. I'm a vegetarian btw so not sure what meats are best. I believe other oils are good but I don't really…
  • Thanks all, yes have been logging everything, definitely was surprised by the loss. The stomach feeling I'd suspected was going to stick around, and it did. I know some people have increased hunger with increased calories. Yesterday was awful in that I felt like I had a headache, couldn't feel satisfied. Today bloaty, not…
  • I'm curious what happened since? Did you ever stop getting the intense hunger? I have increased from the same starting point and the same amount in increase, and am experiencing the same thing.
  • Thank you for the tips!! Fortunately I got the Ensure on sale. By the time I finish them I'd like to have figured out another kind of Shake. I do find it easy and helpful but only just started.
  • Thank you for your support! Yes I am in the process of looking for another doctor. I have a feeling ultimately I will be referred to a nutritionist but otherwise I really could have used guidance from my doctor. It was not easy to make the appointment. As for sodium it never has been a conscious effort to avoid other than…
  • I've been to the doctor. Needed a prescription refilled, not sure if you'd call it a physical but I was weighed with clothes on and came in at 92 pounds at noon time. This is about what the scale says at the end of the day. They didn't even say anything... It really upset me because I've felt very alone with this. I know…
  • Thank you all so much for replies. I've gone back and forth and back and forth but this time I'm finally moving forward. Had a great day yesterday and ate very differently and more calories. It's amazing how I've gotten so used to having such low energy and what a difference just that made. I have been so hung up on and…
  • Thank you for replies, actually just do the 30 mins of riding the bike and nothing else, and a website told me 150-160 calls burned for 30 minutes. But again I am sure it could be different, I have managed a little higher resistance than when I first began, for example. I updated the calories/weight on this site and I'm…
