lam57 after about 12wks on Tx I started loosing weight & now I'm on week 39 my weight has dropped significantly from 250 to 171 pounds I feel better with the loss & on the plus side I don't need blood pressure medication anymore ... But like someone said here that we all don't loose it, some actualy put on weight... I don't want to put it all back on after Tx maybe just 10 pounds to get normal ....
I lost about 15 lbs but now all I think about is food since I've finished with tx. I gained back 5 already in a couple months.
i put on a stone so far think from sitting around so much still eating like mad sauseges at this minute and still sitting on my bum so no not every body loses weight
Also if you develop any thyroid problems that will impact you too.........I was extremely hyper and lost 20 pounds which I really didn't have then when I went hypo I gainned them all back again (plus a few but I admit I ate like crazy afterwards cause food tasted so GOOOOD again!)
My husband's on week 18. I think he's maybe lost a pound or two, but nothing substantial. He's more or less maintaining. He doesn't need to lose, though, so I'm happy. I'd say overall his appetite is down a bit, but he wants more sweets, so it evens out.
I gained around 20lbs. I could always eat. The weight gain is really depressing. I am 5'3" 145 lbs. I think a lot of the problem is I used to always work out a lot. Now I don't have the desire or energy .2 wks left if I finish this. Then I will work out again hopefully.
Good Luck
I lost some weight over the past year (~15-18 pounds) but for the most part it's come off slowly. I'm hoping to keep it off since I could afford to lose it. What is more noticeable (to me) is loss of muscle mass and I think alot of us wrestle with this.
Good luck to you ! Pam
As always in life it seems to me the folks who don't need or want to lose weight do and the ones who want to and need to don't.......cause that is just the way life works!
all are different, i personally did not lose weight, i actually gained a little (ugh) i got many other sides but losing weight was the one i would of preferred (lol) anyway- it's hard to tell what each individual will go thru on tx, everyone is different. just keep coming in here and asking questions-you will learn alot!
some gain some lose some stay the same
eat noramaly and healthy if underweight u could try to bulk up, but dont eat too much fat
