Topic: RE: stuck !!! HELP !!!!
I have had a couple of plateau's. They have lasted up until a month. I just increase my excerise and protein. It is funny how you can not lose anything for a week, then loose 10 pounds in a weekend. I also found wieghing just once a week helps, keeps you from getting depressed. Jeremy

Topic: RE: Ok, am I the only one still loosing hair??
I started losing.. about 3 weeks ago. I got my hair cut shorter..seems less to notice But it is for sure getting sparse up top. Here is my addition to the thoughts.. my head hurts to brush my little bit of hair. I thought by brushing it .. that would manipulate the hair folicles... you know the ole thing your mama taught you about brushing your hair 100 times... but I can't.. my head hurts... Any body else?

Catherine, I LOVE my new PJ's, haven't gone bra shopping yet, but will have to soon! Since you can't find your size locally, have you tried tried online ordering? Victoria Secrets has their own web site and you can order all kinds of things, and so does Bali. Good luck bra hunting! Sarah

Hey Albert, Both the protein and water intake is a struggle for me as well. I dont know what it is but I have never liked water much...But I put in a ton of crushed ice in a BIG glass and that helps. I also drink ALOT of crystal light. The Sunrise flavor reminds me so much of "Tang" and I like many of the other flavors also. Its so low in calories and really tastes wonderful and refreshing after struggling with water, lol... Have you had bloodwork checked lately? My B12 was WAY low, so I am getting B12 shots once a month and it helps energy wise and I notice the scales seems so move after I get it. Whether coincidence or not, I feel happy seeing it go down Good luck to you Albert, and hang in there. This last plateau I had lasted 6 weeks. Argh!

I would really work on the water intake. It can make a difference. the length of plateaus vary greatly.
