Hi,
Well I have now gained 20 lbs. in 8 mo. and it makes me SICK. I have always eatten one meal a day, and not a big one, and a healthy one, I do excerise, weight lift, ride a stationary bike, and I added walking to my routine, haven't walked in about three weeks, is so cold, so excerise more, I do not like sweets. Don't know what else to do:( I am not happy with my gain at all, will not go back to smoking to loose, just want to loose as it just makes it alot harder fight to remain a nonsmoker. understand what I am saying? some people say I don't eat enough so my body thinks I am starving it and grabs all the calories and turns into fat?????? but I am scared to eat more for fear I will gain more, my family has the tendencie to be heavy, smoking ate and did the excerising also and never a problem so what is going on? I have added more excerise to try to keep my met. going so far nothing has helped. go to my dr. in Jan. for a check up will talk to him and see if maybe he has an answer, I sure hope so, so sad looking like this, I am 5'3" and always weighed around 108,wore a size 4&6, now am 128 and in a size 8 most of it is around the middle, some might say is also a factor I am 66, but I have seen alot of thin 66 year olds that do not smoke. and I want to be one!!!!!!!! any ideas would be so appreciated.
Thanks, (in time I will get the weight off, without smoking, NOPE!
hugs, prayers pixie dust,
Bobbi
