Ok, thanks! That is so hard for me to do but worth a shot.

No I have not been eating 1500 calories at maintainence.

Didn't think about the weighing of food instead of measuring. I weigh my meat and nuts....but everything else I usually use measuring spoons and cups. I'll try that and see if I come up with a difference.

I haven't been in a deficit for quite some time....at least 6 month.

I usually give it 30-60 days before I'll try something else. I eat back most of my exercise calories just depending on the day. I'm afraid sometime it may overcalculate them. Some days I'll eat them all, some days I may go over 50-60 calories and some days I may have 100-150 calories left. Yes, my BMR is 1800 according to…

Ask you if you have any Advil...killer headache here....

Because you dont like to fill out profiles...

Because you wear sunglasses indoors?

Thanks!

Agreed! Its common sense that a pound of fat and a pound of muscle would weigh the same. However you fill up a container with fat and another with muscle, one will weigh more than the other...

A handful of muscle weighs more than a handful of fat. THAT is where this comes from...

I prefer the elliptical mainly because its more entertaining for me. However, it makes my feet numb and cramp up so I cant stay on it long. Then I switch back to treadmill.

EYES!

That shirt is getting bigger for sure! Great job!

I prefer men that are slightly built. However I prefer my women chubby but not obese. ;-)

Black dress! Well it looked like a dress, until I clicked on it...black shirt then! Hugs "things" very well...

We use coconut oil. My husband lost 224 pounds in 1 year. All diet and exercise. I have lost 80 pounds. We use coconut oil and eat peanut butter!

I have heard a lot about that medication.

I have checked with my doctor. He says I should be proud of the 80 pounds lost and to hang in there....grr.

I was diagnoised 15 years ago. I have always been on Levothyroxine. I've always just trusted what the doctor says regarding the meds as far as increasing doses. I was up to 175mcg. Just recently reduced it to 150mcg after the weight loss I've had. I'm beginning to wonder if I should question trying a different brand.

Yes you are correct. One is name brand and the other is generic. I've heard a lot about the Levothyroxine doses being different from batch to batch. I have been taking it for 15 years on and off. (I hate taking pills and went several years w/o any meds at all. Bad mistake!) Sometimes I feel I should ask for the name brand…

I was on a 4 month plateau and did the same thing. Gained a couple pounds. Then decided I wasnt going to worry with the weight loss for a little while. I changed to eating maintainence. I gained a total of 7 pounds. I've did maintainence for the last 3 months. So it has been 7 months since I have lost any weight. Last…

I agree with this...

THIS! I've been sleeping naked for years! My kids are now 9 and 10. It's nothing unusual. I keep clothes out to put on in a hurry if needed. The freedom is awesome!

<CAT LOVER HERE!

Did it last year and loved it! Can't wait for this year. I'm hooked!

THIS!!! Anyone can lose weight on their own. My husband lost 212 pounds! I've lost 80 with 55 more to go. You CAN DO IT!
