Guest guest Posted July 27, 2001 Report Share Posted July 27, 2001 <<! But worst of all was the amount the nurse read out from the scale, I had NO idea I was that big!! well fat, lets be honest here! That alone has shocked me into a quest to lose weight. I need to lose 56 lbs, to get back to my wedding weight I need to lose 80 lbs! thats long haul, (its taken 7 years to put it all on!) ugh, but I am so shocked at myself that i must do it, sigh. Anybody out there with a load to lose that would like to be weight loss buddy? Compare notes, encourage the battle to continue, that sort of thing? i don't want to go to a club but know I am very weak willed with dieting!! sue wong>> Hi Sue, I know what you mean by shock...I don't own a scale and when I renewed my driving license she asked is hair, height and eye color were the same...well I said maybe the weight had changed! lol I'd love to be a buddy with you. I did cut out my daily coke about 3 months ago. But I am still not doing what I should be doing. Gail in Cleveland, Mom to Ted 10 today!

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Wow, it seems like since I've been taking Lexapro, I've gained weight. I believe a multi-vitamin would help you. But you might want to check in to something specifically for energy boost. Take care. Weightloss >I have been on Lexapro for 2 months and I have lost 8 lbs!

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 When I went to the nutritionist I was at 85 lbs and I am 5ft. She put me on a 1072 calorie diet and I was able to lose weight on it. She used some sort of formula to come up with it, but I dont remember what it was. She was not sure if it would work but wanted me to try it for a month and then check. I lost weight in the first month so she assumed it was a good goal. After that she said to just barely go over that in order to maintain. Otherwise I dont know what our exact intake should be. Im sure it still depends on your height and current weight.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 I weigh 55 lbs. I used the USDA Food Tracker web site to get a sense of how much I eat and how balanced my food intake is. It's pretty individual how much we need. Before I was ventilated I burned a lot more calories. For me to maintain my weight I eat between 900 and 1300 calories a day. When I'm successful at more consistently eating at the high end of that range, I gain weight. Gaining is my goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 The only way I've found is by eating way, way, way less. For me that's under 800 calories a day. And that is still slow going. It's always been a struggle for me. Jenn On Mar 7, 2009, at 5:13 PM, samie_a_brown wrote: > Has anyone figured out how to lose weight when we can't exercise??

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 I just came across a very interesting article with regards to weight loss. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05...enge-to-obesity.html The following is an excerpt. It is well worth your while to read the entire article. quote: That the conventional wisdom of 3,500 calories less is what it takes to lose a pound of weight is wrong. The body changes as you lose. Interestingly, we also found that the fatter you get, the easier it is to gain weight. An extra 10 calories a day puts more weight onto an obese person than on a thinner one. Also, there’s a time constant that’s an important factor in weight loss. That’s because if you reduce your caloric intake, after a while, your body reaches equilibrium. It actually takes about three years for a dieter to reach their new “steady state.†Our model predicts that if you eat 100 calories fewer a day, in three years you will, on average, lose 10 pounds — if you don’t cheat. Another finding: Huge variations in your daily food intake will not cause variations in weight, as long as your average food intake over a year is about the same. This is because a person’s body will respond slowly to the food intake. Ralph Giarnella MD Southington Ct. USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
