ugh.. why do men lose weight so much faster.... hahaha Great job! just change it up a bit and you will start losing again :smile:

thank you for the info... very helpful!

i totally understand ... i have been on both spectrums but cannot find that happy medium ... i am doing well now losing weight but try not to go overboard b/c i def dont want to be on the other side again either it becomes an obsession though so just try not to go there ... easier said than done, i know ... self talk helps…

congratulations and thanks for sharing ... you look amazing! and yes, this inspires me more to get to my goal : )

i just go onliine and look up recipes that have good reviews ... i stick to low carb but always modify i definitely get tired of the same old thing and adding something new just once a week helps out a lot

definitely feel the same way .... but we are doing the right thing and in a few weeks or months you can feel a bit more confident when you lost more ... hopefully get the same check-out gal ... and then whose laughing :wink:

WOW!!!! great job!

than you for sharing your amazing story! you are doing great so keep on going ... i know you will reach your goal :smile:

that is great! well they say that every pound lost is 9 lbs of pressure off your spine. keep up the good work :happy:

congratulations! you can do it and this is just the site that will get you to your goals. :wink: good luck!!!!!

i am soooo a cheese lover! i have switched to part skim or 2% .... not as good but at least still having cheese :happy: i noticed when i made that switch my fat intake was reduced and i lost a lil more that week ... play around with amount and the reduced fat and see if it makes a difference in weight loss for that week…

i was doing 8 glasses per day (64oz) but this past week increased to between 9 & 10 cups ... lost more weight this week doing that .... not sure if is a coincidence but sticking with it. i also did hear that you should be drinking half your weight in water but not sure i can drink that much :happy:

my doctor suggested this to me 2yrs ago but i never went through b/c i just was not sure about it. let me know how it goes b/c i may re-think this b/c constant pain just sucks : ) i think my doctor told me there would be relief right away???

i have a similar situation but will prob never be able to run again... had PT 3xs and not much help any way.... swimming is good but i get bored unless i am swimming with my son ... i also do the wii dancing but dont do any jumping movements so its mostly arms... still sweat so i think it works good for upper body and…

magnesium helpsme sleep and almost forgot ... lidopatches! those help when the pain is bad

i have tried every med that is supposed to be for fibro but they all have side effects... some helped the pain but side effects were worse. i used to be very active and now know that you have to move no matter what ... if you can only walk then do that ... do a little at a time and work your way up.... sleep is a must ....…

all of this helps... i am making a list and will try one at a time to see what helps... maybe combo of things, who knows

thank you ladies! i have cut out carbs and sugar too. i did read about the d-ribose but i will def try it now.

i have not lost that much yet ... but almost 10lbs. i am 5' even and when i was thinner a 10lb weight loss was noticeable but now i think i look and feel the same. i am sure with the amount you lost that it is probably noticeable to others that know you. i do agree with ambie35 that maybe try toning up a bit and that you…
