SW:153 CW:152! GW:135

1 pound loss this week. i've noticed i've been losing inches rather than weight but thats okay with me! :)

darn, we're supposed to get rain tomorrow. :( i don't like rain. but i guess April Showers Brings May Flowers. and the farmers will be happy. it just sucks cause no capris + t-shirts for me.

yeppers, it just went up to 14 though. lol in the sun its pretty warm though. everything is melting so fast, i went for a walk and had to take some major detours because my trails were completely flooded lol. should have wore my boots, but i was just too antsy. i wore shorts and shoes twas awesome yet my calves are brown with spring water haha.

am a redhead, youngest of six

I can't stand Joelle!! Tara asked her if she want to be on the campus, and Joelle hesitated, she didn't even answer her. Yet Tara votes for Damien. Joelle doesn't want to be there, send her home.

Plus if Joelle does go home, what if she gives up all the time, and doesn't lose anything?! lol wouldn't that be kind of funny. they'd be like, "lets see how the voted off contestants are doing today! Joelle has lost 2 POUNDS! since she left biggest loser campus."

i feel so...fat

Anemia related to poor nutrition: Vitamins and minerals are required to make red blood cells. In addition to iron, vitamin B12 and folate are required for the proper production of hemoglobin. Deficiency in any of these may cause anemia because of inadequate production of red blood cells. Poor dietary intake is an important cause of low folate and low vitamin B12 levels. Strict vegetarians who do not take sufficient vitamins are at risk to develop vitamin B12 deficiency.

^ got that from the site i suggested in previous post. i suggest you take a multivitamin and an iron supplement. but really you should see your doctor!don't leave this untreated.

 I eat around 300-500 during a meal and eat alot of snacks too, hmm. I also miscalculate alot so I'm probably eating 1200-1600 day (like cookies I thought were 100 then it turns out its more like 200-400. and I eat at least two everday)

And during winter break, I really doubt I was undereating (i mean burgers, fries, lots of smoothies @_@). I actually had a time that I ate TOO MUCH and went to point of nauseousness (I think alcohol might have had something to do with it too) and I had to throw up (not bulimic, I just think my stomach is infinite and apparently it's not. That was the last and only time I've ever thrown up in 4 years)

 you're in denial, you posted ealier that you eat 1000-1400 calories a day, and then when someone says this is too little you change your mind and say you eat 1200-1600 a day.

also "i had to throw up" (not bulimic...) yeah...right, not bulimic at all.

i'm sorry if it sounds like i'm 'attacking' you, i'm not, i just care, especially when you've been told before on other forums that you are an 'undereater'

pls, see a doctor! loosing your period for over 3 months is the biggest sign that somethings not right. whether you're underweight or not. Any woman of any size etc, missing periods is a great deal. i wish you luck, and hope you get your period back!

try taking certain foods out of your diet that seem to bother you, after a week or so, put them back and notice your body's reaction. This is how i figured out i was lactose intollerant, and as lalabanana refers to, i have intollerance for other foods specifically greasy foods. Also portion size is a huge factor, even though i'm lactose intollerant, i can still eat lil bit of cheese, and a yogurt a day without feeling any discomfort.

so definitely 'self test' your diet intollerances, and if you still have problems, talk to the doc. could be a number of things, gall bladder problems, ibs, lactose intollerance.

by the way pizza and naked fruit juice both have dairy in it. (some naked fruit juice, depending on the kind you had)

take pepto bismol and if you find you have an intollerance for lactose, you can use lactase enzyme with all dairy products.

 Then don't listen . Subscribe to "pgeorgian". Holy crap..she is too human. So many of you are just too wound up in your own envy to recognize that.  Shall we demonize every rich person on earth? Good Freakin' grief....

 

 i love pgeorgian, i think her comments are quite 'witty' so to say, it makes you laugh yet you know what her opinion is. she doesn't skirt around the truth, she's blunt, but she's honest. keep it up pgeorgian!!

i love gi-jane's advice! i'm going to try that one, the only thing is, my mom does the shopping, and she doesnt like my healthy food suggestions. so i'll have to work around that!

yes i was also prescribed minocylcine, but it was too harsh on my stomach, i stopped taking it. plus i didn't like that you couldn't eat for 2-3 hours prior taking it, and 2-3 hrs after. i felt starved.

thanks for your reply, i was starting to worry that no one would! i'll keep going with Dianne 35 for a couple more months, see what happens, and maybe i'll start the minocycline again! thankyou

i love how ppl are still responding to this forum a year later...lol

BC pills are progesterone/estrogen 'tablets', your body is lacking these hormones, because your body does not have the means to produce them, which is the reason why you need to gain weight.

 the pill is getting your hormones back in track, then when you gain the weight and stop taking the pill, your body will take over and produce the progesterone/estrogen hormones by itself.

Also the pill is important, because these hormones (estrogen and progesterone) help regulate the female body such as temp and other things, they also affect other hormones, therefore, its very important to have them!

and as others suggested talk to your doc,  we're not doctors we give advice but all in all, its your doc that truly knows!
