  • Thanks so much for sharing ladies. It really helps to know I am not alone in this. Athenalove46- we are almost exact the same in terms of starting and ending weights, I have gained a few more than you. I measured my hips and I have increased 1 3/4 inches! GEEZ. No wonder nothing fits. I am thinking that I will need to do…

  • Thanks for this. That chart is a bit confusing to me, and giving me a bit of anxiety. I think I will come back to it later, it is too much for my overwhelmed brain at the moment. Honestly, logging all my food is not the most ideal approach for me with my past and ED but I am doing it for now just so I have the data. I am…

  • This is SUPER. Thanks for unloading. I am saving all in word doc to refer back to. In my case- I am in a catabolic state from too much dieting/ and excessive exercise. I also was alternating days of just eating pure protein with protein and veg because of my stomach issues. I WAS SUPER STRICT PALEO and very very low carb…

  • OK I weighed myself. I have gained 13 lbs in about 5 weeks :( Horrific! I would say about 6 -8 lbs of what I have gained is actual fat, the rest water that I would have gained back instantly any way. Lucia had mentioned maybe I should stay off the scale for a while but I just bit the bullet, my heart was racing! Oh well,…

  • OK thanks for this will look at the calculator. So I am not sure what to do then-I have already been eating around 2000 calories per day for the past 3-4 weeks....should I just stay at that or should I lower? I have no idea how much I have gained now since I am not weighing but nothing fits, so I know it is not good. But I…

  • Hi Lucia, What information did you want me to send you? I will send you whatever you would like me to send :) You just have no idea how happy I am to be part of this "family" :)

  • Thanks so much for all this information. It really really helps to know that others have gone through this and come out the other end. My husband, ever the cynic (he eats low carb, works out about 2 hours a day and 9% BF) said "well how do you know these women actually are telling the truth about how much they eat."…

  • Hi there My BMR is 1439 and my TDEE is 2200. I haven't been logging for the first few weeks of this reset because i just needed to get away from the restriction mindset. Now I am doing better. I still dont have your ebook though Lucia, is there any way I can get it and send you a cheque? I am coming from a background of…
