Can't wait to celebrate my first non scale victory!
Thank you for responding. I would probably be in the same boat and am not going to take the chance. I think regain is an issue that hit many two-fold during the pandemic. Before my surgery, I was binge eating like crazy.
Yes! The same thing with me in the beginning. I got too use to wearing my masks and hiding behind that all these years later.
Thanks. I got only a canned response from the chat person who couldn't tell me what the legalistic sounding response actually MEANT, and I sent them a message to which I have received no response. I specifically wanted to know when the change was made (if, indeed, it ever had the 1500mg of calcium indicated) so I know how long to tell my doctor that I haven't been taking ANY calcium... because, based on the packages I purchased last year, it appears to be close to a year...

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.

Lucile777, the point is everyone's weight loss is different because each body handles the processing of food differently because of factors inside each body. things like enzymes, and good gut flora. I do not count calories.
My aim is daily protein of 90 grams -animal protein,( i don't process nuts, legumes,milk) i try for 30+ grams protein in morning. and limit carbs to under 50/day.. for best weight loss for ME. about 25 grams thru the day is my sweet spot. i eat almost no fruit, only natural fats...olive, avocado and butter. if my weight goes beyond my clothes i add 15-20 more grams of protein and cut carbs to minimum.. intermittent fasting works for those who tolerate it.. i can go about 12 hours most time without eating.....and no unwanted side effects.
Truelove33, Try slowing your meals down... eat 1/3 portion, stop.even if you must get up from the table...walk around do small chore - 5-7 minutes. go back to table. eat another portion and repeat...adding int he 15 minutes to your meal time in addition should give you the time to feel satisfied. generally it takes a total of 35 -40 minutes.. slowing your actual eating by chewing each bite many times, slowly and savoring each bite also helps.
