losing weight over the holidays

I would def go to the doc if it continues after the holidays. But weight loss is not uncommon with anxiety. Some people gain and some people lose. Guess we are two people that lose weight from it.

I put on 37lbs with my son last year. I lost a lot of it during delivery and the weeks following. Then I did next to notjing and went back to my normal diet and was back to my prepregnancy within 8mths. I just wanted to focus on my baby so didn't worry that much about it. This time ive been more careful tho and have only gained 12lbs so far at 32wks so I'm hoping its mostly baby.

i dont like the holidays. my dad died in december his birthday was 12/12/12. im having a rough time. losing more weight and cant get my nerves under control. i guess i will be home alone thanksgiving. my niece has to work thursday and friday. for black friday. she is dreading it. i will get me a turkey dinner. yummy. yuch. i was invited to go be with mt other niece but everything is so messed up if i go i will hurt someone and if i dont go i will hurt someone.

Hi everyone. There is a really quick and easy poll that they are asking as many as possible to participate on within the Healthy Cooking Community. Peekawho is the moderator and it is just a choice about whether you are trying to maintain your weight during the holidays or lose it. I'll post the link in a second but until then------ you can go to Forums and find it in the Community section. Thanks!!!!

First, if you're at all muscular, you're not all that overweight. If you're not muscular, you don't need to lose a ton of weight. Calories aren't key to losing weight -- how quickly and efficiently you metabolize your food into sugar and how well you digest your nutrients is far more important.

Try asking yourself this .. Do you want to greet the new year having remained on a healthy plan, losing weight and being the belle of the ball or the striking prince? Wouldn't it be great to have people come up and notice the difference and say, "My, YOU look stunning .. how are you doing that with the holidays?" How are you going to approach the holidays and greet the New Year?

m 33 wks n have gained 30lbs so I feel your pain, but what I have tried to do is maintain the weight I am. I try to keep busy around the house and since its the holidays I walk a lot in the mall. Also try to eat more fruits, vegetables and drink plenty of water. I've been the same weight for 5 wks now, so I know it's working.

We know that losing weight over the holidays is hard -- we actually had a challenge going to "not" try to lose, but to simply maintain our weight........I think we are going to get a new challenge going soon........... love to have you stick around and join us.......

Hi Lisa, my sister who is a doctor actually called me yesterday and cried. She is still struggling with my mother's death after 2 yrs. There is no way around it. My mother's birthday is next Wednesday and it's another year without the woman who gave birth to me and her birthday is Thanksgiving. It's still difficult, but our family is going to get together, take her flowers for her birthday and Thanksgiving and we have so much to be thankful with a new baby in the family.

I was wondering if losing weight (if thats even possible with the unexplained weight gain I seem to be having) would help out with the nasty side effects i know are part of the treatment. I have heard that many people lose weight while on the treatment of peg interferon and ribo. Is this true and does it lower your dose of the ribo? I am confused about treatment as I am only a grade 1 and stage 1. Yet I am developing fibromyalgia and RA.

Every year this comes up, and every year I appear to spread cheer -- people don't gain weight at the holidays. It takes more time than one or two binges to reset your metabolic rate, so if you keep up your regular routine after the holidays there won't be any permanent weight gain. So have fun out there and don't worry over a couple of feast days. Peace, all.

Im eating but losing weight and have not thrown up at all. Is this normal? The first time i went to the dr i was 176lbs average body size... And now almost three weeks later i am down to 170lbs. Yes ill admit i am drinking water and only water.

d suspect many are gone during the holidays and not much is being accomplished with the available staff remaining. Did you call the hospital directly to request a copy of your results?

Well, since I just started a new challenge, in which I said I was going to suspend the weigh in for a while, I wasn't going to post one this morning........... but since I just posted the challenge yesterday and I see there are only 2 of us signed up, I thought maybe I should go ahead and post the weigh in, in order to give everyone a chance to catch up, since I know everyone has been busy with the holidays, etc. I'm still holding steady at 150.

You all are so wonderful, thank you for being here. I think the Holidays are the hardest, I am more emotional during these times. I hope everyone has a Wonderful Thanksgiving!

Hi hubby on wk20 on Tues out of 24wk when he finished with the teleprevir his appetite came back but he is still losing weight so far he as lost over 2 stone and we cant understand why when he eating so well.

m trying to increase my cardio by twice a day and now im doing the 30 min free run on wii fit! So im hoping to keep losing and for the tape measure to start giving me a break too!!

I was 215 when i found out i was pregnant andi lost over 20 lbs within my first 5 months ... At 36 weeks i still haven't got back up to 200 (not that i wanted to) but i think it depends on your starting weight ... Just as long as you continue to eat right the weight loss shouldn't b a big deal ...

I weighed 158 before i got pregnant and I'm 20+4 and weigh 144 i actually got down to 141 a few weeks ago i hate this bcuz i did everything to lose weight before i got pregnant and could only get down yo 158 and now that i actually want to gain the weight I'm losing it!

Im not over weight im very petite I was 115 before I got pregnant now im 103 and scared as hell...and no I dont have any morning sickess at all just very nausiated (spellcheck) I went to the dietian today and she told me I have to eat every 2hrs...

I I am 20 weeks today and I have lost 23 lbs so far. I am actually at the dr now so we will see if I have gained any back maintained or lost weight again. Dr isn't worried all the ultrasounds have shown baby is big.

Yes it's normal to lose weight while pregnant. I lost weight the first trimester and my doctor didn't worry as long as baby is growing. Just eat healthy and stay active! !

You don't really need to gain if you were over weight when the pregnancy started. Eat healthy meals, normal portions, exercise moderately. You may lose weight naturally as baby takes up some of the excess calories you were consuming. I'd consider yourself weight neutral right now and just eat healthy with proper portion control and not worry about the end result of your weight.

I also like to watch movies, listen to music and avoid the commercialism of the holidays. I like to savour the quiet moments and be grateful for another sober year that has past. My recovery is always number one!
