HELP!... Weight Loss... At the end of my rope!From: JC (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 25 Jul 2002 12:33:19 -0500 (CDT)
This month has been absolute hell. I found out my bf cheated on me (we lived together for 4 yrs, been together for 8) and so I left him and drove across country from NY to CA about 3 weeks ago, by myself, in the worst emotional state possible. It pretty much was a kick in my tail, so I decided I needed to get control of my weight in order to get control of my PCOS. This past year, I have topped out at 232 lbs at my 5'11 height. I left NY at 218 and I am now 214, so in that first week I lost FOUR lbs and in the past two weeks I haven't budged one pound! I am currently doing Atkins. I cheated maybe once a week (not a huge carb blow out, just a piece of chocolate here and there). I keep my carb intake to 20g or below a day, and I also take L-Cartinine to increase my metabolism, plus 500mg of Glucophage/Metformin with my dinner (sometimes lunch, too. I'm trying to work my way to with each meal b/c right now it totally rips my stomach up if I take it with more than dinner), vitamin supplements, and I exercise about 5x a week for 30 mins each. I eat 3x a day... not too much food though b/c with all the stress, my appetite has gone downhill completely so I eat maybe half of what I used to. I don't know what I am doing wrong! Has anyone else had this problem? Any advice or tips? I feel like maybe I should just give up and accept that I am going to be fat forever because I try to do things right and nothing is working. :( Help!
