The results are outstanding, but it seems like maybe it is just a bit too fast? i > I was gone all weekend to Mexico with a gal pal of mine.

I'm not sure what answer you are wanting to that. I have lost 58 lbs since June 15th 2003. So give or take a few lbs/days that would be 11.6 lbs each month for the last 5 months, which works out to be about 2.5 lbs a week if it we lived in a mathematically perfect world. The first 6 weeks it was far far more rapid than it is now due to water/getting a WOE worked out that worked for me/getting exercise routine sorted. You also have to take into consideration the other changes I have made. I quit smoking 2 months and 1 week ago which put me on a 5 week stall. I broke off a relationship and have had a very hard time with that and have almost totally lost my appetite. I am only now(its only been a little over a week) eating properly, according to my own WOE because I know that I have to in order to function properly. I personally don't feel it is too rapid. Who sets that standard? Is there a standard of how quick is too quick? I think it's a very individual thing. As long as I am getting proper nutrients and water - which I feel I am... And as long as I am not losing muscle which I don't feel I am due to the type of work I do ranching.. I sometimes literally work like a field hand.. combined with my free weights and walking..I should be ok. No?

If you feel good while losing weight, I would think that you are fine, although maybe it is a good idea if you could verify that you do not have "gallstones". I also lost about 12 lbs per month. i 223/176/180 > Susan > 260/202/160 [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] >> > 2month 1weeks 3days 4:09hours of being smoke-free, 2,845 cigs not >> > smoked, $526.33 saved, 1wweek 2day 21:05hours of my life saved The only complaint I have is I am exhausted when my day is done. As long as I am up and moving I am fine and dandy. But the minute I sit down to do paperwork, bills or get online in the evenings - when I get back up.. I am physically fatigued to the point of can't put one foot in front of the other without groaning because I am so stiff and achy. I think its just old age lol. I wish I had more than 24 hours in a day to get all that I have to get done every day. As per my gallbladder.. It's fine, I had an full physical/blood workup in June.

First off, congratulations on your weight loss and especially your quitting smoking decision. That in itself will eventually make you feel better and add years to your life, so they say. I never really smoked, but my father does and I know one is better off without those things. He spends a bundle a month on cigarettes per month. Take that money and buy you some nice and new to wear. Forgive me for my ignorance for not knowing the acronyms used. Can you tell me what WOE stands for? Also, I've noticed what I believe are peoples weights, maybe goals. You wrote 260/202/160, can you tell me what each section represents? i.e. ?/?/?. From what I read it sounds to me your losing weight at the appropriate frequency. Good job on exercising with free weights and walking. I've implemented walking and using a stairmaster at least five times a week, and feel better weekly. Currently I'm not working so time isn't a problem to exercise for me, but I can imagine in your case how working affects you energy and lower the desire to get out and exercise. I know if I were working eight hours a day, it would lower my stamina. Just keep it up till you reach that weight you want achieve and I'm sure you'll have more energy at the end of the work day. Take care and kudos to the weight loss, Paul > My current rate? I'm not sure what answer you are wanting to that. I > have lost 58 lbs since June 15th 2003.

Thanks for posting and the kind words about my weightloss and smoking - I feel better than I have in 15 years (I'm 36) As far as the acronyms we use here I believe there is a faq somewhere for that but I'm not sure where. Maybe someone can post that for you here in this thread. WOE means Way of Eating. WOL means Way of Life. TOM means Time of Month(for the ladies) - You will see some folks post things such as DS and DH, normally that will mean Dear Son or Darling Son or Husband etc. The 260/202/160 is my starting weight, current weight and goal. Most do not put in when they started but some do. I started June 15th. I'm very glad to see new faces here on this newsgroup. I know for me when I first started my new WOE I was lost and this group of folks helped me soooo much in answering questions and giving me somewhere to vent and smile. This is a good group of folks :) You didn't mention much about yourself, feel free to elaborate on yourself at any time.
