You have posted a lot of topics that are making me think you may have an issue. Please talk to someone before you go down a road of an eating disorder. At 98 pounds, you are very thin & do not need to lose weight. Please seek out advice from a professional. |

Thanks so much for that information! I will do some research on that. I usually don't eat many carbs...just once in a while. Yesterday, I didn't have any grains, just fruit, veggies, protein & some nuts & I lost 2 pounds. It's amazing how I store water weight easily as soon as I eat brown rice or wheat! I experimented by having oat bran organic hot cereal this morning. I cannot wait to see what the scale says tomorrow. |

I have the SAME BODY! I think you look great also! With my body (I am 5ft 3, 33 yo & currently 120lbs) I am upset the way I look with acrrying a big but & heavier thighs. The reason why is that about 7-8 years ago, I was only 108-110 ponds. When you do get that low & are a size 0, it is very tough to put on 10 pounds & be happy. I understand that most people on here would be excited to be our weight & feel it's healthy, but everyon'e view of where weight wise they look & feel the best is different. No two people need to think or look the same way. I do have thyroid issues now. My doctor feels that it is from constant dieting & taking diet pills years ago. So, be careful that if you do feel you need to be thinner to do it wisely & healthy. I know that being a size 0 at 33 is a bit unrealistic now, and I know way back by restricting so much that I hurt my metabolism. We live & learn. |

| I found out that I had a thyroid problem. I weigh 120lb 5ft 3. Some people would say I am in "the healthy range", but if I eat anymore than 800-900 calories, I gain because I am hypo. I seriously cannot even lose 1lb even if I go to 500 calories & if I go to 1300, I gain another pound. I am still working with my doctor with the dosage of medicine. I am not an expert, but bloodwork is always a good test for us as we get older. Your family dr can check your levels easily. | |||

| I would love to know this answer also! I have a terrible endocrinologist now. I'm looking to switch. She puts everyone who is hypo on synthroid. I also heard good things about armour. Even with synthroid, I am exhausted! I find it hard to lose any weight either. I have cut back calories to 800 even & the sacle won't budge! It's truly hard to push yourself to exercise more too with being hypo. If anyone has had success with another drug, I'd love to hear it! | |||

| Sleep deprived? Nope..I go to bed between 9:30-10. I have a job that I must leave the house by 7am. I basically grind my teeth at night, so I wake up with headaches a lot. That's why I find it so hard to wake up early & get it over with. I just read that working out in the morning burns fat 3x as much as the afternoon or evening..I would love to try it! | |||

| Sounds like a food intolerance! It could be the fiber content also. Oatmeal makes me bloat & I don't have a wheat intolerance. | |||

| Wow, I have been diagnosed with IBS too. I almost feel like this is what they diagnose patients with when they don't have an answer! I am lactose intolerant, and now Friday I am being tested for fructose intolerance. I eat so many vegetables & a lot of fiber-rich foods, and my stomach is always bloated. It has taken over my life & I am always cranky & feel awful. The only thing that does not bother me is brown rice or bland chicken. I am trying Protonix now & also had my thyroid tested...I'll keep you posted if anything works! | |||

| It happens when your body is trying to adjust. Give it another week. Be patient. =0) You are doing great. | |||
So you can log your weight -- which allows you to do the following:
- Plot your weight curve
- Analyze the trend of your weight (see under Recent in the figure above)
- Determine the projected target date (see under Overall in the figure above)
