Yes i am having the same problem. I have been on pacil for three years and i have gained 20 pounds due to my attitude change. I was very strict on myself before that. I became very relaxed . I had to exercise like crazy to keep it down . I was told by a friend that i should go on the ultrsimple diet by Mark Hyman. He deals…

My measurements Waist. 31. thigh. 23 Hips Legs. 19 Hîps. 37

I would like to get involved in thè challenge. Two inches from waist

Good job. Keep up the good work

Hi there - I don't weigh myself. I take measurements daily. I try on something that doesn't fit. When i can fit it i will weigh. Hope this helps. When i was obsessed with the scale i did it every friday morning.

Yes Yes Yes I need help in the evening. Please help me

That is a great post. It is very encouraging. I have 15 pounds to lose but it is hell. I love to eat and so does my husband. We allways go out on the weekends. I always feel that i have to start over on monday. The salt makes me feel that i have gained. I am so afraid to get on the scale. The only thing i do is take my…

That is very good. Did you really stick to your calorie count daily. I am trying to find out what i am doing wrong. I am not losing.

I love those kind of friends. It hurts when they say it but it really puts you on the right track.

Yes it is muscle- the same thing happened to me. I gained 10 pounds of muscle too. I felt like giving up. Please don't give up. It is all going to be worth it. How much did you lose in may? Do you feel smaller? This time i have really cut back to 1200 - 1300 to assure i dont get the weight gain. Sometimes the muscle comes…

That is a great report - thank you. I hope that it works. I just want the truth and i will follow but everytime i get some new info that sounds logical i try to test it so far nothing has worked. I have untill the new year 2012 to lose 15-20 pounds. Its good to know that i don't have to rush it.

I had the same problem untill a bike accident forced me to slow down. I knew that i was an exercise nut. I would go to the gym for 2 hours (2 classes) than i would work at the school for 3 hours, that involved walking around the kids. Than i would come home and do gardening or 3 hours. After that i would relax for rest of…

That is very good work. You look very good.Do not stop recording because when you get married you feel very relaxed. I put on 15 pounds when i got married. Dont make my mistake.

If i were you i would consider cutting out bread and go very lightly on pasta.(1/3c ) only. Is it worth it. When ever i eat a lot of starch carbs i gain weight. There is no other answer. There are so many other things to eat. I found that when i am counting carbs i have moreo a chance of losing. I am doing much better now…

I love that part of it. It encourages me to stick to my plan. Yes i think that if you are honest it can happen. Try to learn to love it. It is very mathematical.

Hi there I know exactly what you go thru. It was happening to me all the time. When i joined this web site i told mysel that i was going to stick to the calorie count no matter what. I let my friends all view my menu or diary daily. If i have to have have something sweet i have a luna bar. That satifies me. What will…

This was wonderfull information. I recently was hit by a car when riding my bike..I was told no exercise for 3 weeks due to a concussion. So i went into the profiles and changed my exercise to sedentary. That allows me 1300 daily. Did i do the right thing? I also refused to eat any starchy foods in that period of no…

Hello and welcome :drinker: You sound like me. I love to exercise but i never lose any weight. This time i am keeping a tally on everything i eat. It tells me after 5 weeks i should have lost 8 pounds so i will weigh on the last day of the month. Figures are based on the calories and exercise that i have posted. I am being…

Hi there Just wanted to let you know about my sruggles with that type of eating. I did it for 3 years. It was not bad at first because you were able to get fresh fish. I started losing my energy so i had to add chicken. My strenght has come back. I was eating mostly salmon . How long have you been doing it? I thought that…

That is great. How many more do you have to lose?

You look great

did you use your exercise points? It is very important that i know.

Hi there Yes i am having the same problem. I exercise a lot also and sometimes i surprise myself with all the things i do that is physical. I decided that i was going to put my diary out to friends so that they can detect what i am doing wrong. Are you willing to be honest and put it out there to view. I swear to be…

Go od:flowerforyou: for you losing 12 pounds. Are you exercising? I don't have a problem with the exercise but its hard because my husband eats things i can't handle. I made up my mind that i will be at goal new years eve.

I have found that eating a healthy bar (luna) ater lunch and dinner without going over your calorie count makes me feel very satified. You have to stay away from those commercial sweets. Just try it one day. You are able your meal small because you know that you are going to have this bar that has protein so it helps with…

Hi i know what you are going thru. I exercise like crazy and the numbers never change however i start looking better in my clothes whenever i add those calories. I told myself that i was going to be honest this time. I am not suffering. Do you fell that you are really posting everything that you eat? If you are really…

I tried this and i love it. Hard to eat only one. gratenni1

I think you have done a great job with the 20 pounds. You can definitely see the difference. I am hoping that i have that kind of success. Please dont give up. Look at your pictures. That should give you confidence. Gratenni1
