General Discussion / Re: Technical issues
Last post by Cate -
The forum has been in text view & behaving very weirdly for quite some time now. A few of us have been getting huge house icons that take up all of the screen and it's only rarely that we get HTML. I have noticed a few people have gone back to the old forum, mainly for that reason I think. Does anyone know anyone who could let us know what can be done to fix it?

Weight Loss / Re: Knowledge is power

194 - 3/27

I have not been eating well, and to be honest was shocked that I have not gained more weight.  I guess weight gain, like loss is slow. 

Funny how I had imagined my clothes fitting much more tightly and the like...  First weight in a month or two. 

As some of you know I tend not to post when my eating is bad... that hasn't changed but it should.

That happened to my stepmother. she lost a bunch of weight not eating anything but seeds and other bird food. she lost a lot of weight but her body adjusted for it so she could barely eat a half of a sandwich and she would gain weight. this made her not want to eat even more and it was just a spiral downward.I don't know what her weight is now its been years since I saw her but hopefully she was able to get back and eat normally.

Ugh, sorry I keep missing your posts here!  I hope you don't worry too much about plateauing.  It's hard getting the last pounds off, in my experience.  And I hope you don't feel bad about eating lots of pizza on your birthday!  I try to give myself a few days a month where I eat a lot because I'm really hungry or really snacky.  Then, if I am calorie counting, I just watch my calories especially or I  skip a meal here and there.  Are you still eating way below the recommended calorie amount?  That can make it hard to lose weight if so because your body goes into survival mode and will hold on to every single calorie you consume.  Sometimes you have to experiment with eating a bit more for a while and just exercising more.

Thanks for the hugs Marsia. Hugs back. Binged on some pizza on my birthday last week. Then binged again yesterday. hasn't affected my weight so far but we will see. still at 166 it hasn't gone down but at least I'm maintaining.

I’m sorry about your mom.  I hope you have lots of good memories of her.  My mom is loosing muscle also at age 72.  I don’t know what her weight is she won’t tell me. She is much shorter than me.
