You do not need to restrict to 1200 a day. I have suggested to people that they enter the weight that they want to weigh and make your goal maintain weight You will know the amount of calories you can eat for the weight you wish to be. It is a slower weight loss but you can work on living the lifestyle you will need to…

I was using weights and I have tendinitis in my shoulder. It really started to hurt and I just made an appointment with a physical therapist. They will give me safer exercises I can do at home

If you have a large amount of extra skin insurance companies pay for tummy tucks. Mine did

I have wondered this also. There are people on here trying to gain weight, People like myself who are trying not to loose any more weight and some people who enjoy the site.

your profile pic seems very thin and fit. You could be having problems because you do not need to loose any weight? what is your goal weight?

And it took years of learning and a slow weight loss journey to figure this out. Good luck to anyone trying to obtain balance

Yes i do believe your body can learn. I do not limit what I want to eat. I eat any food that I want. I did over simplify. Portion control and listening to your body. I think If I ate my teats before having my dinner I might not make the best choice Or if I waited way to long to eat :)

I hear you I used to be the exact same way! My husband was shocked at the amount of ice cream I packed away. I am telling you when I was doing that (all the time) I was not paying attention. I did not even know what it felt like to be full.

I also could not eat that much chicken or that much ice cream with out ignoring when I am full. OMG 4 cups!!! I would get sick! Not the case when I was living a day to day unhealthy life and morbidly obese. Years of learning to listen to my body and learning when to stop has opened my eyes. I had no clue how bad I felt…

I love my ice cream, I love my chocolate and I ate plenty of it in order to get to 330 lbs. I did not feel good at 330 lbs and I did not feel good eating that way. I believe in general a person who eats as much ice cream as you claim you can eat and feel fine on a regular basis is not going to feel so great. Doing it once…

getting full on ice cream and nothing else will make most people feel not so great. If you know how to listen to your body you would realize that. I have maintained my weigh loss for 12 years. I feel pretty confident about my methods

simple learn to stop eating when your full instead of eating more because it tastes good. Listening yo your body takes practice but it will not lie to you if you pay attention.

I reported it hrs ago yet this thread is still going

Not a place to be pushing product. Especially a fad!

FAD!!! You need to live on real food not shakes

Its HARD work being this pretty!

starting weight 330 goal weight 140 current weight 128 Maintaining for 11 years (i did have a weight gain of 70 lbs between my two babies) but I lost it again. My oldest was born 5 years ago.

I hit my goal 11 years ago. I still have the fat mentality. I did finally see myself in a mirror from a different angle and could not see my face and I saw my self as skinny for the first time. I wear a size 2/4 Its a hard thing to get over.

I really hope they do come back. I like my pants at my waist. I find them more comfortable. My runners tights sit at my waist. My skirts sit at my waist. My mid rise jeans from express do sit at my waist. Its great we live in a world where there are many stores with lots of styles to fit a variety of tastes. Just don't…

:laugh:

good luck to you. I think making foods off limits instead of learning portion control sets people up for binges. Say you think Ice cream is bad and you eat some then you feel like a failure You screwed up they day so you eat as much ice cream as you can and start over the next day. What if Ice cream was not off limits and…

I think you have all the right attitude. Good luck to you :D

I give myself a 5 lb window before I worry about it. Day to day fluctuation is normal

every moment counts :) :smile: :wink:

Small goals is a good way to go. I was 330 and I said I would be so happy under 200. I got to 200 and I wanted to not wear plus size cloths. I got to the point where I could shop off the rack and then I wanted a BMI that was not considered over weight. My goals kept adjusting along my journey. I have kept the weight off 12…

130 is a good weight for your height. Smaller goals is a great way to go about it but I am 128 and 5.5 1/2

you do not look like you have a BMI of 30 in your profile pic

Low rise jeans are awful! I just found some mid rise jeans at express that are pretty comfy. I am looking for more places that carry mid rise :)

why not be strong and a healthy weight? and congratulations on how far you have come.

Do not diet exercise you are not overweight. Be healthy
