Unhappy Why???

As I Have Posted B4 Thru Out This Journey I Have Never Bounced With My Weight. I Would Lose Or Hit Stalls. So Why In The Hell Am I Bouncing Now, 6 Months Later!?!?!?!?! I Went From 158 - 160, Why?!?!?!?!?!? Im Not Doing Anything Different Except I Have Been Slacking In The Drinking Water Dept. I Just Cant Understand This If Anything I Have Been So Super Strict Lately.

The Weight Has Been Slowing Down Soooo Much And Hitting Stalls Much More Lately Also It Scares Me That The End Is Near Which I Hope Is Not Because Im Still Considered Obese. Im Only 4"11 And I Weigh 160. How Do You Know When The End Is Near? And What The Hell Can I Do If It Is Because I Still Have A Lot Of Wt To Lose.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

All I can say Edie is that keep doing what you're suppose to do. It will come off. I'm over 8 months out now, and for the past 1 1/2-2 months I bounced from 187-185. But guess what? This morning I weighed 182!!! As long as you do what you're suppose to do, it will come off. You're not far enough out yet (or so I think) for you to stop all together. But at about that time, my loss slowed down ALOT!! Hang in there girl!!

I too have been thinking a lot about whether I am coming to an end or not. To be honest, I am obsessed with it. From the time I get up in the morning and STILL weigh the same, until I go to bed at nite and lay there thinking of nothing else but "Is it almost over??" I am happier weighing 245 than 315 but I really wanted to be in the 100's at least. I know, I am only 4 1/2 months out, but it seems like I hit a stall every 5 lbs. now. I just have to stop obsessing I know.

I too m frustrated and wonder about EVER losing any more weight! I lost 90 lbs like nothing flat and now have been stuck or 'hovering' for six months!!! I HAD weight loss goals that were quite modest and have failed them all. I am sticking with the plan because I'd rather eat this way anyway. But I have nothing real uplifting to say! Other than the fact that I have just accepted this way of eating, have stopped the cutting back and starving myself, and am going about my life!

XOXO
Mya

I think that if you haven't been drinking as much water, you may be retaining more fluids and that could increase you weight a couple of lbs. I bet if you up your water intake again you will see that 2 lbs go away.

Keep the faith
