Young Calorie Counters	Do you think this is too much?	Apr 20 2008 20:26 (UTC)
I have a friend with a similar problem. She's 5'8" and 115 pounds. She wears a size 1, I believe, but has love handles right at her waist. No matter how much she diets or exercises, they never go away. Some people are just like that.
Pregnancy & Parenting	Calorie Counting while pregnant	Apr 14 2008 18:23 (UTC)	13
1800 sounds good for a couple months, but I'd up it to more than 2000. Remember, you're eating for two people now, not just one. Also, I wouldn't worry about weight too much while pregnant. It's only a few months, and you can lose all you want later. Make some room in your diet for more protein. Drink whole milk, etc.
Health & Support	What would you do with a 5 inch belly scar?	Apr 14 2008 02:21 (UTC)	24
If it were me? I'd flaunt it. If anyone asks, make up a crazy story to go with it. Make it fun! "Yeah, I got in a fight with a tiger while I was digging up ancient artifacts in the jungles of Africa." "I got in a bar fight. You should see the other guy." "I used to be a paid assassin. This was the initiation process." Something like that. You're always going to have the scar, no matter what you do to make it fade, so make it fun for you!

Health & Support	hair loss????	Apr 11 2008 20:28 (UTC)	4
Original Post by wendylouu: Well, I think that you are not getting enough protein. I had surgery and wasn't able to eat a lot ...due to the fact that I was lacking protein my doc said that my hair would fall out! Their is a shampoo out for Chemo patients that will help thicken your hair back up. :) I found it at a shampoo place in the mall ...Hope this helps ya Yeah, my friend Will had the same problem. He dropped 100 pounds in five months and now is a bit bald, and the rest of his hair is pretty coarse. It's a protein deficiency. :( Eat more protein to stop it in its tracks, then use the shampoo listed above. Also, you're eating less calories than you should. Up it by a couple hundred if you're exercising that much.
Weight Loss	Does anyone LOSE more weight at TTOM?	Apr 11 2008 20:24 (UTC)	1
I wish I had the reverse effect! lol. I gain a couple pounds before, and a couple days after, they disappear. I feel all bloated and icky :( Do you feel any thinner when it happens, or is it just stepping on the scale and going "Oh, awesome!"
Weight Loss	what made you fat/gain a lot of weight?	Apr 04 2008 02:20 (UTC)	35
I worked in a chinese restaurant for three months, gaining 30 pounds in the process. They sent me home with free food every night. :(
