    OK, now I've cleared my work backlog, the proper sleeping, healthy eating & regular exercise programme will resume. Stepped nervously on scales this morning in preparation for it & was delighted to find I've lost 5lbs this month despite having been terrible on all those counts.

        I've shed 3 stone without dieting over the last 6 months. The joy of gallstones.

        No, once I cracked the cause - a bout of jaundice helped there - and knew to keep it low fat to avoid the pain, it's been fine. I've always failed on diets but when I know half a pound of butter a week will bring back stomach aches, I eschew it. Forced healthy eating!

        Congratulations Helen. I haven't eaten much since my surgery 3 weeks ago due to nausea because of the pain I'm in and the medication I'm taking. I haven't lost an ounce. I'm very disappointed.

        Oh no! Every time I've lost weight through illness, it has piled back on with a vengeance when I recovered. So perhaps you haven't missed out on much. It's frustrating though and nausea is THE WORST.

        Don't b 2 pleased w/yourself. Fat is about 20% less dense than muscle. However, if you had converted some muscle 2 fat over past mo, the good news is U'd b more buoyant shud you accidentally fall into a body of water. #YourTweepsLoveU4YourMindAndSpirithttps://www.scientificamerican.com/article/muscle-versus-fat/ …
