Re: Losing Weight Like Crazy

[Guest guest]

You ARE NOT the only one who wants to lose weight. I am 5'7 " and 155lbs. I

can't lose weight no matter what i do. I work out an hour an day...most days

anyway. I don't know what to do anymore either. I wear a size 10 but

still...I want to weigh less. Just know that are NOT alone. I have been

reading a ton on the internet and am wondering if I need to do a " colon

cleanse " . Something about that was in a post here today (I'm sorry - I don't

remember who sent the post)...it got me to searching and I think I am going

to do one. We'll see if that helps at all...

Why does it seem like most people loose weight on this

diet, except for me? I excercise hard for 30 min.

every morning, but that still doesn't help. I have

more muscle now, but it weighs more than fat, and of

course no one can tell it's muscle!! I am 5'6 or 7 " ,

and am cursed with having a larger bone structure

(from my father's side), people tell me I don't need

to loose weight but I REALLY want to, I weigh 150lbs.

and would like to weigh about 120, ideally. I weigh

the same now as I did my sophmore year in high school,

when I ran laps every day in p.e. class, and did a lot

of weight training and toning. I could never loose

weight then, either. I am curious to find that the key

ingredient in those metabo-life type drugs is

chromium, does this give you energy, or help you loose

weight, or both? A lot of people buy metabo-life, but

what they don't know is that they can get a bottle of

its main ingredient at the health store for 10 bucks!!

Most of them don't even know what chromium is when I

question them. I know it would be bad to loose weight

if you're already too thin (as in poor Deborah's case,

and several others here), but if I was that thin I

would be checking in to modeling agencies! LOL. I

guess growing up in California has gotten to me ;-).

Weight is really a number. Big deal. I know...I used to be caught up in the

same thing. Weight is relative. You said your bone structure is

large...okay there are some pounds there. A fit, muscular body...many people

LONG to have. Muscle weighs more than fat. In my opinion...120 would be

underweight and not healthy looking. Try not to think about the number. As

long as you are in great shape...and look great in your clothes, most

importantly, feel good about yourself...who cares? I know....it is hard.

But we are all blessed with being an individual. I know I will never be

blonde and petite. I am tall and brunette...BIG FEET AND ALL...and that is

just me. Can't change it...I just work at being me. I hope this helps.

Deborah

I am in the same situation. I have found that I tolerate corn very well, so

I have natural corn chips(tacos) with hummus as a snack, or Ryvita biscuits

with hummus and carrot sticks on them, or sometimes as a treat, a bag of

potato chips...not that this would be good for you all the

time....unfortunately we have to eat a lot of protein, which means a fair

amount of meat. Chicken salads are good, rice puddings made with Stevia and

Rice milk..... I feel like I am eating all day....most woman would be

envious......

Keep going... you will start to gain as you find what works for you

Have you cut out all carbs as much as possible? Just eating protein and

salads/veges should make you lose weight..... Might be your thyroid

otherwise...

- that's 114.4 pounds. To get a pound, I think you multiply

the number of KGs by 2.2. You are REALLY thin! I weight 40 pounds

more than you! Egads! :>

I didn't want to suggest that I don't want to lose weight...just not to get

caught up on the number. That used to be what it was about for me ...I have

come a long way to realize to be the best " me " I can be.

A size 10 is not large at all for 5'7 " (In my opinion). But I have noticed

that many 8's, 10's and size 12's are different sizes depending on the

manufacturer.

I AM in support of all of you. I just meant...don't get hung up on the

numbers. Sorry if anyone read me wrong.

I don't think you suggested that at all. I thought your message to

be uplifting actually.

JMHO though.
