Don't take this the wrong way, but I am so happy to hear other people struggling with EXACTLY the same issues. I have had doctors, friends, etc tell me to just cut back calories and exercise more. I really feel as though I am going insane. Then I read threads like these, and it helps so much. Thanks for posting.

It's not impossible, but it is a lifestyle change. I was in the same boat, and it did take time, learning to love myself, and above all patience. Time, because this didn't happen overnight, although it often feels like it did. Love, because I had to realize that I would never treat someone I loved this way. Patience,…

Hi! Thanks for doing this kind act. I was curious have you ever worked with someone who works in a high stress environment, and struggles to lose weight? I have never struggled so much, until I started grad school, and working 10+ hours a day, 6-7 days a week. Yes, I work out and record everything, but I am really starting…

I've been battling this for almost 4 years. I cannot get past 140 lbs (I'm 5'3''), and now know I am dealing with an allergic reaction which causes me to swell with water weight. Not saying you have the same issue, but it was maddening to deal with the endless plateau even in doing everything right. I too hired a trainer,…

I hear you, about the free food! Any event on campus is either pizza, candy, or whatever else! My campus is always saying it's the "healthiest campus" but they always seem to supply cookies, doughnuts, and pizza nearly everyday! I love free, but it's so tempting!!! I'll be happy to help out. I know this time of year is…

I'm a chemistry grad student, and embrace my "nerd" title. This looks like a job for science! Friend request sent :)

I'm 31, and I've been struggling with bloating for 1.5 years. I found my body developed a nasty intolerance to refined carbs. It's not a gluten allergy. It's that I literally (like milk) cannot have too much or I retain water horribly for days. I can gain about 5-10lbs of water weight if I don't watch myself. Never in my…

I'm 100% vegan. Feel free to hit me up. One of my favorite haunts is "Oh, She Glows." Love her recipes, and they are mostly budget friendly. Vegan is not difficult at all, and can be done with a budget, I know, I'm a broke grad student.

Joined this group, and thankfully I did. Like usual, I was about to say "well, there's always September to start." Then, I remembered this group. Which the voice in my head screamed "no, you will start now!" So, even with a sick day and little exercise, I'm giving it all I have for this challenge. Good luck everyone! Down…
