I lost 70 pounds over the past year and a half. Part of it due to weight loss from Topamax, some from Slim Fast and the remainder from the ED I developed. I just plain restricted. I've been back to sort of eating normal. I ate alot of junk over the holidays. My jeans are tight.
I want to go back on Slim Fast. Just to lose about 10 pounds, if that. I haven't weighted myself (I'm afraid to ) to see how much I've gained.
Starting the day with a Slim Fast shake sets that day off on the right foot.
For some reason, eating a bowl of cereal makes me hungrier and I crave sweets afterward.
I think if I could do the SlimFast plan for a little while, I'll be able to lose what I need to and be OK.
My husband is totally against it. He says I look great and can't notice that I've gained. (yeah, right!) He says that I have an eating disorder (I do ) and this will not be good for me. He's been to my therapist before when she said I was on the verge of hospitalization. He's willing to go with me to see her next week to settle this argument over the SlimFast.
My point is that it will not hurt me. I am not happy. I am heavier and feel so fat and it shows.
He says I want to do it the lazy way. All I do is lay around. Get up and move, he says. Get active.
I just can't stop eating. SlimFast WILL help. I need help!
Any comments? Suggestions?
