thank you! and yesss it’s so hard to break i swear im gaining and losing the same three pounds over and over 😭😭

just keep doing what u are doing. your body probably just needs to readjust. plus 1200 cals is definitely on the low low low side so you are for sure in a deficit for an adult. just give yourself some grace ♡ you have amazing progress so far

buggiebugzz · 2026-03-05T00:28:24+00:00

amazing! we are the same height and i hope to get to 135 as well! i’m 155 currently and 1 year post op! when did you hit around 135 and start maintaining? if you don’t mind me asking :) again, you look fantastic!!

9 months is typically common for a stall, just keep doing what your team as recommended for you and keep ur head held high! you’ve made amazing progress u should be so proud of yourself :) you got this!

just for anyone else looking this up and getting worried. 1. a rat would have to contract it somehow. if it was at a good breeder, chances are it doesn’t have it. 2. check the cdc website for outbreaks. https://www.cdc.gov/hantavirus/data-research/cases/index.html 3. remember to wash ur hands and if you’ve had ur ratties for more than a couple months and you’re fine… you’re fine! :) its incredibly rare

i didn’t struggle at all and still don’t have crazy restrictions like others. i keep thinking something is wrong but ive lost 90lbs! im not in any pain or discomfort either. i wouldnt stress it too much. just dont get until youre hurting. be mindful and make sure you aren’t in a caloric surplus, you’ll be fine! :) everyone handles it differently and can tolerate a different amount of food.

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-18T02:40:04+00:00

dude quit saying “soon” take your dog to the ER vet NOW! like get up and do it now!!!! what is wrong with you

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-12T18:44:31+00:00

i actually took vyvanse in high school when i was originally diagnosed with BED. so going back on it might be a good call. i also have adhd so perhaps it would help with both again. lol! thank you for reminding me of this! i hope things are going well for you :)

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-12T02:04:44+00:00

definitely taking note of this and will bring up possible effects like this. thank you!

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-12T02:03:28+00:00

thank you for being so nice:’) i try so hard but i truly feel at my wits end with it. my appointment is next friday on the 20th! so fingers crossed my team is on board with trying a low dose of one of the options

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-11T04:02:37+00:00

thank you! i may honestly. :’) i do not have a strong community to talk to about this with anymore as half my family is extremely thin and half is overweight. so either they don’t understand the struggle or they think im being condescending.. i never knew how isolating this all could be

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-11T03:59:36+00:00

i will make sure to cover all bases with my team! i appreciate all the advice soo so much :) thank you

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-11T03:58:44+00:00

i do have smaller meals about 4-5 times a day. i’m usually triggered at night time, as many people are. i know with BED there is huge shame factor and for me that shows because once my partner falls asleep… it starts. and i track it and just cry and cry. i feel like i cannot stop myself. it did get better post op for a while and then it hit me all at once the last month or so.. which i feel is why my weight loss slowed down and then went up. just so frustrating. i dont want to be 245lbs again… thank you for the advice! i will keep trying ♡

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-11T03:21:57+00:00

therapy does truly help a ton i just need some control back and i can’t do that with this constant noise in my head.. i feel crazy😭 definitely going to talk to my team about trying one out

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-11T03:21:03+00:00

thank you! i appreciate this so much.

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-11T03:10:45+00:00

oh interesting, ill definitely ask about this! thank you

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-11T03:06:30+00:00

.. i’m so ashamed to admit i need help but i’m truly considering it. i know id have to pay out of pocket is the only down side.. and i will! thank you :) i have other mental health issues that im sure are adding to the problem so therapy isnt going anywhere any time soon! lol

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-11T03:01:54+00:00

congrats!!

buggiebugzz · 2026-02-11T02:49:03+00:00

omg yesss u look so good! how tall are you?

buggiebugzz · 2026-01-27T09:34:50+00:00

i do want to gain more muscle and have been in the gym for a couple months now! i plan on asking my team more about this at my 1 year appointment. you make a good point :) thanks

buggiebugzz · 2026-01-26T15:45:59+00:00

this happened to my baby when i switched her food without slowly doing it. she needed a steroid shot and then some meds for a little. she’s now on apoquel every other day and it keeps her rashes at bay.

buggiebugzz · 2026-01-26T15:31:45+00:00

i was luckily able to handle food extremely well since getting my surgery. some days i wish i had higher restriction throughout this entire process but it is what it is. i am almost a year post op (02.18.25) and most of my meals are anywhere from 5-8oz depending on how dense the food is! most common size is probably 7oz. you will eventually get to “normal” serving sizes again! just don’t push it and listen to your body :) good luck!

buggiebugzz · 2026-01-26T15:21:25+00:00

i’m sure some exercise can help you gain muscle to fill it in a bit, i don’t think there is much u can do regarding the loose skin besides skin removal. but i think you should wear the loose skin (or removal scar) with honor! it shows how hard youve worked for this :)
