Thank you so very much Grammy! I guess I have to realize that to lose 5 lbs a week as I have done before...I would be doing major high intensity work outs for a couple of hours 7 days per week and now, that time is not sucked out of my day and if I get out of my own way I will see that this is working and my expectations were likely for something that could be considered miraculous for me

So, thank you again and I can not imagine ever doing this without this forum and the help you provide!

It's VERY rare for women to lose a pound a day. You see it mentioned on here but trust me, it's not common. Women lose 25-28 pounds in 40 days. That's the norm, not what you've read about 30 pounds in 30 days. I've been on here for 3 1/2 years and I get so aggravated at the hype that's out there because it's not true. so just hang in there. I'd take a laxative for your other problem, something gentle like Dulcolax. Good luck!
