After reading all the posts, I am not sure what the answer is. I have been much slimmer on WW and other plans and always sick-dealing with C and bloating or occasion bouts of D. So I would be miserable because my tummy would look 4mos pregnant.
Now tummy is flat, but I am up five pounds-10 from feeling good weight. I am 5'4" and between 126-130 depending on the day. Lately closer to 130.
I exercise a lot. My sister had a trainer tell her that our bodies get used to the exercise and after a while it doesn't really work to lose weight, just maintain. I am starting to wonder if that's my problem. I spent 90 min running and doing eliptical each day Fri, Sat and sun and did weight training. I can't fit anymore than that into my schedule. I will probaby do an hour tonight.
I am starting to think acceptance might just have to be it for me. 30+ years of IBS is quelled with this eating plan and it beats looking pregnant all the time.
I eat oatmeal for breakfast w/ground flax meal. 1 TBS Benefiber, oatmeal w/ fax meal for lunch with canned fruit (no sugar added), snack on fruit in between, and have 3 vegies, a sweet potato or brown rice and chicken or fish for dinner. Last night i splurged on a wheat free dairy free choco chip cookie. I drink 128 oz water daily.
