too many nuts

[Myca]

I think I am gaining on my Raw Food Challenge. I haven't weighed but my stomach seems to be growing. I think I am eating too well. I might break down and go weigh tomorrow...

I definitely have to watch my intake of nuts/seeds/dried fruits/dehydrated items, etc. I have seen an obvious pattern of not being able to continue my weight loss when I eat too many of those things. I do a lot better when I eat a green smoothie every day, or even drink only lemonade all day long on some days and then eat a nice raw dinner. Also - exercise is definitely a key for me. I have lost weight many times in the past, but this time is harder - each pound takes more work to release than in the past. Maybe it's my age?

QFMother, I hear ya! I used to be a host/helper of an infertility forum, and the minute those young gals began taking FSH, they'd begin complaining of gaining a pound or two a-week. Sigh, as you age that FSH just keeps 'a crankin. It sure does get harder. I love nuts, and have to watch it too, just like you.

BTW, Congrats on the 50 lbs of weight loss. You go girl!

What's FSH?

And at what age does it start getting troublesome?
