receiving blood

You are welcome Monet!!

Haha great idea for a thread! Well I actually now see my collarbone. I always check my side look to see if I still have that double chin which I don't. I still order size 14 clothes out of habit when am a 10 or a bigger cup size meanwhile my boobs have shrank

lol. I think I need to read that thread. But in your defence you were just voicing your opinion.

hahaha lets eat some miracle noodles indeed.

And I completely appreciate you for that. I am actually surprised that so many people have turned on you instead. Lol. Well most didn't read the thread where I said am only doing this for a while until I can start exercising again.

I totally agree.

thanks hun

haha. I had to laugh at this. That wasn't the response you were hoping to get I presume. I listened to those who had valuable advice and thanked those who encouraged me. So can you quote where I insulted anyone dear? Or do I have to start with you?

Wao thank you so much for the encouragement. :flowerforyou:

Am not seeking to be a special snowflake hun. Am trying to lose weight. I wrote in my quote that I took some people's advice and didn't eat 1200cals only everyday, but i still managed to lose 4lbs first week and now 4.4lbs second week, so maybe its water, or fat or muscle. I have alot of the above and so losing some for…

really? Lol

For those of you who were keen to know how much I would lose on the second week, I lost4.4lbs. Yes I did! And the fun is, I took some of your advice and wasn't that strict on myself like the week before. I wasn't under 1200cals everyday. So now tell me, is it still water weight or just fat? I am over the moon though

Oh really? There we go! So definitely nothing wrong with what am doing especially since I haven't gotten any hunger pangs and its the second week now. I eat snacks between 3 meals like fruit and all. geez some people are just know it all. I do take good advice when given in a constructive manner though. Thanks for the…

Oh i read the thread. Thanks was quite helpful

You think I will lose muscle on 1200? Well thats what most people think but i dont think so. Do you not lose fat first and start losing muscle when most of the fat is gone? I want to reach the point where i have lost most of the fat, and if i start losing muscle, i up my calories and exercise as well.

You didn't read my quote properly. I intend to lose weight while on 1200 then exercise to maintain the muscles after i have lost weight. I explained that i easily grow big when exercising because i have a large muscle mass so the scale doesn't easily come down. At one point it went up and when my muscle and fat and all…

Hooray!!!

On the contrary this was quite relevant. Its post like these that make me rethink my calorific intake but the bottom line is i think i am able to eat that coz am not exercising yet. So i don't need to eat much. Am small as well, short etc. After calculating things my TDEE is actually 1499. so to lose i have to go beyond…

I doubt you know what muscle mass is. You think it means looking like a trainer? lol

Exactly hun, 5ft 2, sedentary (even though many people think i am likely more active coz of my boys but they only know the half of it) but i plan on exercising. The main reason am doing this is i have a large muscle mass actually. I tend to gain alot of muscle when am exercising, and easily grow big even when i lose…

Am not in a haste to lose the weight. Am on 1200 because of my lifestyle. when I start exercising, i will up my calories.

Yea even if its just 1lb of fat and the rest is water, am glad i still lost something! Mscheeeeeeww!

Thank you. And I can see you've lost 165lbs. WAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I don't have to expatiate my reason for not exercising but am sure as hell eating properly. So the "Not eat properly" was just you trying to be what? rude?

Geez! Can't I thank the people who have been encouraging me without some guy thinking am bumping the thread? Geeeez!

My next weigh in is on Monday, I weigh myself weekly and update it. So watch out for my ticker next week. Might surprise you!
