Scale stuck - I'd love a diary review
I lost tremendously well in January - but the past week/10 days - pretty much nada - Not sure what's up - paying super close attention to my macros...trying to get in as close to my 10k steps daily - 30 minutes of daily exercising. I'd really appreciate taking a look at my diary and seeing if anyone had any tweaks or…

So fustrated and disapointed!
I'm trying hard to focus on the positive, I really am - but after playing with the same damn 10 pounds since January 10th - I'm completely disheartened. I work out at least 3or 4 times per week (40 minutes cardio/weight training) and try very hard to eat nutrition - not junk. I thought I had the diet part down - but I am…

Any medical professionals around - post CT scan/diet questio
I had a ct scan today with contrast (big, gross drink of God knows what & a shot of dye). My tummy feels vaguely off (assuming it was the drink) - planned dinner, but not really feeling like eating. Question is if anyone knows if this is normal - would eating help? Any idea of what the drink was and if it would be…

In an effort to break the no -weight loss in forever trend I see - I'm trying to up my protein and lower my carbs - but I"m not at all sure how high/low they should be. I would appreciate any insight

Help - not loosing
I'm so frustrated..I eat well, getting (for me) lots of exercise(3 to 4 days of 40 minute cardio & light weight training) and watch my sodium - but I have only lost 3.6 pounds total since Jan 11th. What am I doing wrong? Can anyone recommend any tweaks? My 25th HS reunion is in March and I was really hoping for slightly…

Need a diary review and suggestions
Apologies if I am putting this request in the incorrect forum - but I would really appreciate frank reviews of my food diary. I've not lost any appreciable weight in weeks and it's starting to get discouraging. I have added at least three days a week of cardio and weight training at the gym and have tried hard to keep my…

Please look at my log - what am i doing wrong?
I would truly appreciate a more experienced eye to review my food log - I have barely lost any weight in the past month - I really thought I was excelling in the food department - lots of veggies, staying w/in my calories - no alcohol -at least 60 oz of water each day - but I am having little to no weight loss since Sep.…

Follow up with my Oncologist
I am so happy-I just got home from my 1 year follow up visit with my Oncologist. He was sooooo proud of me, loosing weight - exercising - He said that I could not be helping myself remain cancer free in any better way than eating right and exercising. Plus, it was a total hoot to see myself weigh less then 200 pounds on…

What are we hungry for?
Starving for something? Ad nauseam, I have been sort of complaining about my insane schedule the past few weeks – this weekend has been yet a new level of insane. I got back from a business trip tonight. I was very good while I was away – handled restaurants/cocktail parties socializing/long hours & late nights with will…

Staying positive when you DON'T loose
So for no particular reason, the scale did not budge this week. Even though, in my mind I had an awesome food week. I drank a ton of water. ( I have also worked 85+ hours, but who's counting). I was very cautious of my sodium. When I weighed in today (same time, same clothes as usual) I did not see the decent loss I felt…

My eating epiphany
I am alone tonight. Hubby is away, Daughter is at a dance. I got home from a LONG day at the office (in a week of insanely long days) and immediately took care of homecoming /daughter duty. Once she and her date got off safely, I realized it was 7pm and I was starving. While I was tempted to stick a Lean Cuisine in the…

Even 17 pounds makes a small difference
Because I was feeling a bit down with the amount of weight I lost in the past few weeks (17 pounds since 8/25/10) - I decided to look at a picture from when I started at the end of Aug and one today - I can actually see a difference. It has def.helped renew my confidence and determination. As painful as pictures can…
