[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 150007, member: 1991"] I'm still not sure what's happening to my weight, with scales that seem to make up the numbers as I go along. But they are consistently weighing me as no heavier than 90 Kg, so it seems I've maybe lost 1 Kg in the last two weeks. I was 91 Kg on the doctor's scales two weeks ago today. Before that I was losing 1 - 1.5 Kg a week. I'm not eating any more than I was, maybe drinking slightly less water. I do forget to take my vitamins sometimes, but I don't think that's it. I haven't been able to do my walking since Saturday (heavy flooding periods, walking makes it even worse) but that shouldn't be it either. I'm going to try to visit mother in law tomorrow and weigh myself on her scales (which are NOT digital). They seemed to match the doctor's scales last time I checked. But if my weight loss is now tapering off - that would indicate these diet pills aren't working after all, which means this diet has just done the damage I was hoping could be avoided - slowed my metabolism even further. The doctor did say that anybody can lose weight if they just limit calorie intake enough. My problem is what happens afterwards, when you get hospitalised for malnutrition, for example... I'm quite capable of limiting calorie intake. All I wanted was assurance that I could do it without slowing my metabolism any more. I'm now wondering if I was given the right advice after all. easy child 2/difficult child 2 sees the same doctor, and her appointment is next week sometime (I think). I know he is going to ask her how I'm going, so I do need to tell her not to be too enthusiastic, until I'm sure the weight is still coming off. I see my GP in another two weeks, when I get to jump on her scales again. Then we'll know for sure. Wish me luck! Marg [/QUOTE]
