Is my nutritionist lying?

DP, seriously. Do you ever stop to think before posting about the state of your bowel movements? Do you know what that triggers in some people? Emerald is feeling sick like a dog, a little compassion might be nice. It's not all about you, not even in your own thread, I'm afraid.

well, bragging that you're losing weight by being sick to a recovering bulimic isn't very nice. She could have worded it differently...
 
My scale says I've GAINED two pounds...but today...my body comp...my nutritionist says I've LOST 3 lbs of BODY FAT!?! wtf?! How is that possible? She said that I've lost a total of 12 lbs of body fat in the past two months...which, according to her...is more like 30 lbs of regular weight loss...she says I'm eating great and not eating too much (I feel like I am eating way too much!) I just...I don't know...how could she be telling the truth!? :confused:

you are ridiculous. just listen to her. water weight can make a womans weight yo yo by 2 or more pounds. and muscle weighs more than fat. just listen to the professional. ok???????? damn!!!!!

She could be feeling too sick to think along those lines. I understand the issues that you face but these are YOUR issues, even if E.E is aware of them, nowhere on this board does it say that members must walk on eggs when posting because their post might upset someone.
 
did you even stop to think before posting that? I would think that would be pretty obvious that it would be triggering for me.

Are you kidding? Really?

Besides, you must have at least 10 pounds worth of feces in your colon at any given time...

Hey baby wanna go out and get some grub?
 
Muscle does weigh more than fat. So it is entirely possible you gained weight but lost body fat. I would also suggest to only weigh yourself once or twice a week at most. I know people who weigh themselves two or three times a day and it drives them nuts.
Muscle does not weigh more than fat. Ten pounds is ten pounds, regardless. Muscle is heavier by volume, but it doesn't weigh more. It's time for this myth to be put to bed.

Stop caring about the scale, Doll, go by your body fat%.

Doll, you post on LIT and this was triggering? Pluuuuese


You would rather feel horrible, like shit and have nothing you eat go through at a normal pace.

Do I feel sorry for you?
No, I feel sorry for me. Im weaker then shit

exactly

If posts here trigger you Doll, you should be here.

Im surprised that the pics of peoples gorgeous bodies are not triggering you you.

i hope that you're feeling better emerald. i was sick last week (and the week before) i think i've finally recovered and weight loss at a rapid pace is no joke.
although looking back now, the half stone i lost was a bonus.:D
 
I was a size 24 and now i am a size 14. I didn't go to a specialist. First thing i did was get rid of my car..if i could not walk to where i needed to go i didn't need to go there. I changed my jobs to a very active job instead of one where i sat all the time. I still ate carbs and anything i wanted but did it in small portions. I ate when i got hungry except if it was past 6pm at night. I drank lots of water and juices and left the diet soda and regular soda alone. I did not wiegh myself but like once a month. But you know there are still times i look in the mirror and still see my fat self. It happens, you just have to walk away and realize that you have lost weight and need to think positive and not negative.

but....but.......but......... she's disabled.:rolleyes:

well done on the weight loss, that's an amazing achievement.:)
 
thank you, someone the other day asked me what i did with the other half of me...made me smile

i wish i had that kind of willpower and i only need to lose another stone (in a perfect world i'd lose another stone and a half maybe).
you have every reason to be proud of the amount of weight you have managed to lose.
if i were you i wouldn't be able to stop grinning.:D
 
i do smile alot and my daughters who are all fashion orientated showed me how to do my hair and makeup and well we have fun.

another thing to drink if you need caffiene is iced tea with sweetner. I also eat fat free pretzels when craving carbs badly

i had kind of noticed that when i was ill that i went around 9 days without coffee and i was sure that helped get rid of some of the weight.

although the pile of shit foods i've eaten since i've been feeling better can't have helped.:rolleyes::D

Thanks! it all started last weekend, by Thursday I was feeling better but now I am so tired and so weak again, I think I either caught something else, or this isnt over yet.

Ive dropped 6-7 pounds in a week and think that would make anyone tired.

if you're still ill for this length of time it is possibly a viral thing.
it's the time of year (or so i've been told) for all the nasty bugs to surface.
i really do hope you get better soon.
:rose:

i have to work early tomorrow so I think Ill try to go to bed around 9.... Hopefully tomorrow will be better.


I also started my Monthly on Friday. Since having PCOS (before finding out) it has made that time very hard for me.

oh that's got to be really hard for you, no wonder your energy levels are zapped. considering how ill you've been and this as well if i were you i would take to bed with a hot water bottleand a stiff drink.
