1. The stress/sorrow diet is the fastest one you'll ever see..
Edited on Fri May-18-07 05:07 AM by lildreamer316
..except of course the drug-addiction one. (Eww)
I hope yours is just stress, right? Busy busy??
After my ex-fiance died I lost 20 lbs in a month. It was crazy.

5. Know the feeling.
I've lost nearly 2 stone in the last 2 1/2 to 3 months, since my boyfriend of 6 1/2 years and I split.

It hurts but at least I look good!

17. I think I gained the weight you lost.
Edited on Fri May-18-07 07:06 AM by Fox Mulder
I've been doing nothing but eating lately. I think it's because I'm severely depressed.

Congrats on the weight loss, though. :)

23. Congrats.
Ten pounds is a lot of weight! I lost eighteen pounds when I was dumped while on vacation in Mexico but weight loss was accelerated by my ingesting an evil organism during that vacation. It's amazing how misery suppresses appetite, no? :hug:

38. YAY you indeed.
I managed to do the whole illness weightless thing a while ago - and for whatever reason it didn't all come straight back on again, and is still off (not that I'm thin or anything) a couple of years later.

40. Good for you!
I have both gained and lost weight when stressed/depressed/chasing my tail. No rhyme or reason for it.

I just recently tossed my scale totally. I rarely think about my weight anymore, and I have lost a little weight in the process (clothes are looser, comments from others).

The best part is feeling good.

Hope you are feeling good! :hi:

10 lbs in 5 weeks is pretty good. :toast:

Sorry it took the opposite of happy to lose it though.

I hope you have happier days ahead. :)

I know that you are happy about the weight loss, but I encourage you to make sure that you are taking care of yourself food wise and other habits.
