Do You Think I'm Starving Myself

A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭
Nampa, ID

My friend, she started out as my cousilor but that was 3 years ago. She's more like a second mom to me now. She thinks on the new diet I started yesterday that I'm starving myself. I eat 4 90 calorie snack a day ( 1 every 2-3 hours) 1 500 calorie lean an green meal ( 2 peices of chicken and a cup of green beans) coming out to about 860 calories a day. Do you guys think I'm starving myself? I just feel like this is the only way I'm ever going to loose weight

A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭
Lakewood, WA

Then a series of events took place that made it impossible to continue my three day a week routine. Yes my family makes sure that I have a car available on Tuesdays and Thursdays but what they don't understand is that because those are the only days I have the car, all of my appointments etc must be scheduled on those days so I can't get back to my class.

Weight Gain With Heart And Cholesterol Medicine...

A MyObesityTeam Member asked a question 💭
timbuktu

Has anyone (besides me) gained a trillion pounds after taking Heart and Cholesterol medicine? My Cardiologist acts like I'm nuts when I say my weight goes up every time I'm put on a new medicine and tells me neither one cause weight gain. I have gained 50 lbs in 11 years on this stuff. Does anyone else have the same problem? Or am I truly crazy? And if you have the same problem, what have you found to help? (I walk on the treadmill and lift weights already) Thank you...
