We all must be doing well, messages are slowing down.

I guess we all must be enjoying our weight loss. I've noticed the messages are really falling off lately.

Does anyone have any good news to report?

My hair loss has almost come to a complete stop. Now I just have to wait and see how much grows back. What's up with you?

I am doing well, I guess.  I am being more active - I shovelled for the first time in 25 years, I can now run up a flight of stairs.  Two days ago I went ICE SKATING with my class.  

I am a tad upset that I can not eat normally and lose weight so I am back "on a diet" to get to my goal weight.  This means lots more protein shakes and less real food until I am at goal.   Oh, well.  I wouldn't give up that drop of 75 lbs in 8 months for anything!  It enabled me to get ACTIVE again so I can be healthier and live life a whole new way.

I have 26 lbs to goal.   SOmetimes it seems like a lot and other times it seems so little that I get impatient!    

I joined the gym YAY never thought i would enjoy it but i can some times go 5 miles and then i get off and can still walk LMAO! Feels good i am still frustrated cause i am stalling out but i have noticed my clothes are smaller i bought a dress from old navy today XL holy cow and i could alsmot go to a large. My hair loss is slowed i lose a few here and there but nothing like it was i know it is growing because my roots are showing gasp! I don't post much here any more but i surf a post here and there on other boards. I have put away my scale  cause were not friends any more lol.

I have good news.  Today I went outside to play with my 4 year old niece.  We were supposed to just toss a ball back and forth, but she wanted to practice kicking.  We ended up basically playing soccer!  I have not been able run in I couldn't tell you how long.  Ofcourse I got tired way before she did.  But it was very exciting and I actually had FUN!
So Lisa actually ran today!!! Yay me!

PS - My computer crashed so i haven't been on the boards for a while.  Missed you guys.

Hey, that's wonderful. Doesn't it feel great to be able to move and bend again. I so happy for you!

Thanks, it really is great.  I wish I had a picture of it.  Now that would be great to post, me running LOL

I know! This board used to be poppin! I think it starts to slow down. I know I stopped comming here for a while when my weightloss was doing good. Now i am out of control when It comes to carbs so im doing the 5 day pouch test like butterflydreams. Just to get back on track. Its on 10 am here, but so good so far LOL. I really didn't want to start this at work but, Its better than not being able to eat meat on my weekend. I hope I can lose this last 6 pounds so I can be under 200! Sounds like we are all in the same boat as far as weightloss slowing down. But, I am confident we can be close to or reach our goals by july!

 I am thinking of cutting my hair because I had lost quite a bit. I don't know if that will make it look thinner though? I hate hate hate myself with short hair. I started with pretty thin hair so it is really thin now. I don't know what to do? :( 

Good news to report. I am 30 lbs away from reaching my ultimate goal! :P
I am working out to Jillian Michaels regiment and it is kicking my butt. 
I am also FINALLY getting those protein shakes in! YESSS :)!!!

I cut my hair super short about three months ago because of the hair loss. It definitely made my hair look thicker (and my hair is really dark, too). However, now that the hair loss is slowing down, I'm ready to start the growing-out process. I really do like it better longer but I was so self-conscious of the thinning, I decided to go for it. You can rock it either way. :-)

Hey butterflydreams,

I didn't lose much hair but mine has always been fine and thin.  I have gotten extensions a couple of times.  They can be expensive but I like the change.  I hate to get my hair cut shorter (its just below my chin now) but it is getting thin looking again.  I might go wt the extensions again.  They have several types, glue and fusion and clip in.  I've had the glue on and the fusion.  It does feel a bit weird, then again, for me, having thick hair is weird.
