Re: too much weight loss?

How long have you been nauseous? Are you feeling well otherwise? There's a few things going around right now is why I'm asking. From experience, when I lose weight during an illness, as soon as I eat again, it comes right back. That really stinks! Hopefully someone else will pop in and give you some advice.

Don't give up! Sounds to me like you've caught a bug. Hang in there... try to eat something easy on the stomach every six hours...even just a couple of bites. Keep fluids up.
Hope you feel better real soon!

What would you want to eat if you could eat? Being now 7 pounds from goal, you definitely should be going through OWL and pre-Maintenance phase. Remember this is WOE not a crash diet. Perhaps in figuring out what you are hungering for, it might lead you to find out what rungs you should definitely hit.
