More crap about eating MORE calories? ...Seriously? More crap about eating MORE calories? I've already upped from 800 to 1200! Eating MORE to lose weight makes no sense at all. 2000 is average daily maintenance and some of you are suggesting I should be eating 2000 +? I'm starting to think you're just morbid people who want to see if you can get me to fail by insisting that I'm not eating enough. I didn't get fat on a 4000 calorie diet. I already feel like I'm eating more now than I did when I didn't care and ate whatever I wanted whenever I wanted. No possible way that gorging myself is the path to weight loss. Look at my actual food...not the calories, the FOOD! It's more than average. I feel like I'm eating all day as it is. I'm so done. Something else that was different between now and when I was losing, I didn't have a bunch of Wormpudges whispering in my ear that I should EAT MORE FOOD if I want to lose weight. Absurd. Look into why gastric bypass/lap band is considered a cure for diabetes in most cases. Talk to a Dr. About why the new recommendations for controlling type 2 diabetes includes a LOW CALORIE diet. Show me one person, my size or smaller, who lost weight on a 2000 calorie diet without drugs or killing themselves at the gym every day.Lynseehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06752254017919024864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4436259672320992437.post-63753777579617593592011-12-13T10:48:24.543-08:002011-12-13T10:48:24.543-08:00Hi,
Oh sure just when I get caught up with readin...Hi, <br />Oh sure just when I get caught up with reading your posts that I missed you decide to leave!!! J/k, you need to do what is right for you, and if blogging has become a chore then it is time to stop. You are suppose to be doing this for you after all, the rest of us might miss your posts, but, hard to believe I know, we will somehow manage.<br />I wish I could somehow send this to you privately, but I don't know how, so I will just have to post it here. I, like many have been very concerned with your low calorie intake. I know you say you aren't hungry, and I believe that to be true. After awhile our bodies and mind go into survival mode and we don't feel it any more. This happens to people that are starving by choice and those in 3rd world countries that are just starving. I'm not suggesting eating junk to get your calories up, but maybe scheduling times to eat every few hours, not a lot, just a piece of fruit, or something. I am concerned that you are messing up your metabolism for life. The fact is the larger we are the more energy it takes to move us, just like a compact car needs less fuel than a semi. Not calling us, or anyone semi's, lol, but you get what I mean. The other thing is our bodies are amazing machines, and if we aren't getting enough fuel, it will steal the fuel it needs from other sources, and because fat doesn't contain what our bodies need, it will steal some fat, but it will also steal some protien from muscle, and calcium from bone, etc. This amazing machine will also adjust the amount of fuel it will burn in order to stay alive, so your resting metabolic rate keeps getting lower and lower.<br />I am not suggesting that I think anyone should get this product, it personally isn't something I would do, although I know lots have, but I was looking at the "Slimband" website because I read about it on another blog, and they are saying that even after you get the band if you weigh less than 275 lbs you should be eating between 1200 and 1400 calories per day.If you weigh more they suggest more calories. Pretty much all successful and sound weight loss programs, (ie: weight watchers) advocate that you need to eat more calories to lose weight that you are currently consuming. You are such a smart woman, that is so obvious by the way you write, the courses you are taking, the marks you are getting and all the rest. However, I wonder if you are like I was and feel like you can do this your way? Just as you are taking courses from people that have more knowledge than you with regard to your degree maybe you should consider taking some advice from others, (not me) that are real experts in weight loss, weight management and good health.I know that there are other potiential difficulties for you with the meds you take, but there has to be a way to get the meds you need and lose and control the weight. I feel I need to mention this, mostly because I feel like I messed up my metabolism when I was about your age, and I have spend the better part of my life dealing with that.Brendalynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17527215991516465142noreply@blogger.com
