Topic: RE: 6 LBS 1 Week?!?!.....
Ok-I want to know what the secret is. I have lost like 3 pounds since the middle of Feb.
I have tried eating more-eating less. Exercising more. Increasing protein. Drinking more water.
I have noticed my pants are a "little" looser, but the next size is still too tight for me tastes.
Topic: first time post
Hello - I have viewed this site more times than I can count, but always stopped short of posting myself. Its now been almost a year since I've been bannded...and what a rollar coaster ride this has been! I went from total frustration, trying to get the surgery apporved by insurance...to elation when I got my approval letter. I can remember laughing talking with the doctor before surgery, but waking up feeling like I had been hit by a truck. I must have hit that morphine button on hundred times..The first few days were pretty painful, so it took all my energy dealing with that. About one month in - was when the psychological aspect kicked in. I missed food, I wanted food, and I was so depressed that I could not eat and eat and eat the way I used too. My sisters tried to talk me up, but they are both skinny, and you know the last thing you want is weight loss advice from a skinny person. Well needless to say I made it through. I have lost 55 pounds and am currenly weighing in at 260 pounds. I went from a tight 28 (and always wondered what size came next, that is the highest I ever saw at Lane Bryant...lol) to a size 20/22 depending on the make. My goal weight is 175....

Amen to that. Well, I can only hope for 5 lbs a month at this point. I know we all slow down and it seems to take forever, but we'll all get there eventually now. Just gotta make sure our tools are used correctly.
Topic: RE: What would you have done?
Yeah - nobody works out in those kind of clothes... he was up to no good and you're probably lucky you got out when you did. If you're not comfortable going to the manager - at least write a letter to the manager and drop it off anonymously then they know there is an issue!
Glad you're safe... sometimes it sucks that we have to be so paranoid but there are way too many weirdos out there!

Topic: RE: been MIA - back with new pics!
Thanks Pam! I'll tell you that maintenance is very challenging. More on my brain than my body I think. I know that I need to increase things to prevent further loss, but I'm so darn afraid of regain and couple that with not being able to get that much in at one time and I just can't do it most days...so I guess I'm still slowly losing.
Topic: RE: What would you have done?
Thank you guys all so much for your responses. I really appreciate it. I am still thinking about going to the manager.

Leaving was the smart thing to do...
ALWAYS go with your gut instict or your little voice. If it feels unsafe...get away. Better safe than sorry. He may have been harmless but why take the chance..
How often do you hear stories about women who have been attacked and they all say they felt like something was wrong and didnt act. Offering him the remote was a good idea to...making eye contact lets him know you have seen him and could quite possibly identify him if needed.
Glad you are OK..
