Topic: RE: Stuck... and worried...

Yolanda, I am sorry to hear about your BIL, I will keep your family in my prayers, may everyone find comfort and peace in God. Can you give us an idea of what your daily food intake is? How much water you're drinking, what about exercise? Maybe we can help you more if we have something to go on. I track my food intake in www.fitday.com. My daily goal is to get at least 60 grams of protein, 30 or less grams of carbs and fat, and calories at between 700-900. I also drink a minimum of 80 oz of water a day. I don't think you're done losing, however, at 9 months out it takes more work on our part to continue losing. You should still lose just slower than the loss during the first 6 months. Dana

Steph, your pictures never cease to amaze me. You don't even look the same, what a wonderful transformation, I can tell by your smile how wonderful you feel. And, look at the weight stats, almost 200 lbs gone forever, WOW. Hugs, Dana

Topic: Stuck... and worried...

I was doing great... and in July hit the century mark... very cool... then shortly thereafter my brother in law died and my whole family went into a tail spin... so here I sit 3 months from since I hit the century mark and I have not lost a pound... I have not had my period.. .and I feel like I am eating right... and now here are the holidays... which are tough.. as my sister and my nieces are struggling to get thru them... and the worst part is... my previous comfort was food.. and I don't have that.. yet I am not losing weight... is there something wrong with me?

Topic: RE: size 12!

Thanks so much! I'm super excited about all the changes, and I hope that I can steal my Mom's camera (it has all my pics) on Sunday, and post them by next weekend. I have so much going on in the coming weeks. Shee****he hollidays! I think I'm supposed to wear the binder for 6 weeks, so another week or so. I'm glad that there are people that enjoy my writing, and I hope that the final chapters will live up to the expectations of my readers.

LOL Thanks for all of your support. I really appreciate the kind words that you are always ready with.

Robin
