I've done something bad to myself and I'm hoping you can help me out with some sort of answer.
I have lost 45 pounds due to a major depression. I've done it through poor eating habits but also through portion control as well. I just don't eat as much as I used to. I can't. Sometimes I take a couple of bites and I'm just done.
But my question is that I think my body has gone into starvation mode. How do I get out of it?
I don't eat and yet it doesn't lose weight. It think it's feeding off it's own reserves. I take lots of vitamins. I don't want to deplete myself completely. But how do I reverse this? I'm hoping for just a simple direction to go in.
Thanks for all your help.
Oh, forgot to introduce myself.
I'm Marg, CD at Graphics Central. I'm 42. Mom of two girls who are 5 and 2 yo. My mom just died recently which is why the depression and weight loss. I had always been an avid exerciser and calorie counter but this has just thrown me for a loop. I've lost all motivation. My brain knows what to do but my body won't listen and now I think I'm in starvation mode and I don't know how to get out of it. I still can't eat very much so that's not a huge option for me.
Thanks again.
