Weight Gain in Stomach from Depo Shot ?

oooh I forgot about the special K diet. I've been thinking about going on a diet because I've gone up a size and I feel sooo fat. I'm 5' 4 and I'm 147lbs. My belly is a bit big as well, but I'm generally unhappy with my whole body. My thighs are disgusting. I wouldn't feel like this but now I don't have any time to go to the gym.
So I want to go on a diet, but I dunno if I can really. My weakness is going out for big meals. Especially curry. I don't usually eat during the day, or I'll just have snacks for dinner, and then I'll have tea and then want a big meal again on the night. But even if I don't eat at all one day I'll still feel fat in the afternoon and on the night.
I might consider the special K diet hmmm.

I know how you feel. My weakness lately is food in general. It's really bad since I was always small and never had to worry about it before. So I like everything.... a whole LOTS of everything. The worst part is I don't eat any meat except for white meat chicken, hamburger meat, and pepperoni, so I'm sure you can imagine the kind of crap I eat. And I LOVE fast food. This will really be a challenge for me as well.

But yeah... let's get started!

Starting weight: 120.5 (eeeek!)
About to have my first bowl

i think i'll have to go to the store to get a scale! I went last night to get some special k product. I got the cereal and ate a bowl last night! I'm reallydon't like the strawberries so I'll just take them out and put bananas. I also go the meal replacement protein bar, those are alright. I got the K2O packets that u put in water and it's really good. I got the strawberry lemonade. I thought about getting the waffles but they're too expensive! I'll post my starting weight as soon as I get a scale which will be today!

I've been wanting to try that protein water, but I didn't want to buy a bunch of the bottles since I thought they'd be pretty expensive. I love pink lemonade, so I'll go today and look for some of those. I guess it's like those crystal light packets? I need something though because I'm completely addicted to sodas.

I noticed this morning when I was eating the cereal that those strawberries are pretty freaking tangy! But anyway I hope I start to crave cereal instead of french fries

lol yeah i meant pink lemonade. I paid it $5.48 for a box w/ 10 packets. The bottles were to expensive and it was only 4 in a pack. I'm gonna eat some waffles this morning. Then I'm going to get a scale!

This is hard for me already, but it may be just because I'm sitting on my butt at home. I want something salty and a can of dr pepper, dang it! How am I gonna do thissss

Well this is officially the worst day for me to try and start a diet Lance just came home and told me I didn't have to worry about making lunch because he's getting pizza and wings for the football game.

First off, he'd think I was a freaking weirdo for sitting next to him with a bowl of cereal instead of a hot wing. And second, he even thought to get boneless ones for me! [droooooolll] I love him... but this sucks

I guess I'll just have this as [a really awful] regular meal and another bowl tonight for dinner. Jeesh. I hope you're doing better than I am!

Start weight 135lbs!

Oh yeh it's very hard! I ate waffles then a half of a banana. I really want some mcdonalds right now! I could just taste the salt from the fries!

Man don't do it. I ate two slices of a medium pepperoni pizza, a can of Dr Pepper, and two hot wings and I feel hooorrrrrible. Stick with it girl!!!

And yay for getting a scale!

I didnt do it! I ate a bowl of cereal instead...yay me! But now I'm eating some cookies and a bottle of the protein water. I couldn't resist the cookies, my fiance makes them soo good!

My husband made cookies yesterday too, but I only had one. I really did horrible on my first day though. I've got to clean up my act!

Day two: 120 lbs

Can I join yous too? I bought myself the equipment today, I'm all set.

Start weight is 145lbs. That sounds so much compared to you both lol

It's my friend's birthday on Sunday and we're all going out for a meal, lol. how awkward.

Hate to burst your bubbles, but that cereal diet will get really really OLD FAST.......once you do loose some weight, mainly water weight at first, if you don't continue to just eat cereal you'll gain hte weight back/ The best thing for loosing weight and keeping it off is to change your eating pattern to healthy foods. Also, walking for only 20 minutes 5 days a week........thats not much......I have been on every diet imaginable and wasted so much $ on books, products, diet pills, hoodia you name it from Sugar Busters to Dr. Atkins.....Weight Watchers was grat for my Mother, its a point value thing, but still the companies are out to get money from you. Crying shame someone wanting to loose weight and keep it off can't find a reliable website for FREE........ Water.......drink lots of water. Put lemon in it, don't wate $ on that flavoured crap....better yet, eat a large marshmellow and drink a full glass of water.you'll be full for a LONG TIME...........I just got off dreaded treadmill, oh boy tomorrow night is weight lifting........,I can hardly WEIGHT....I just don't want to look like other 50 year olds............so I guess I'm obsessed about gaining weight..........Just wanted to save you girls some time and money and not let the companies rip you off.................

I messed up today bad! I ate the mcdonalds i been wanting this pass weekend. Shoot I need to step my game up! It's hard to change your eating patterns.

Fairy*Godmother I know exactly what you are saying. Me personally, would NEVER get on diet pills or anything like that. I eat 1-2 bowls of the Special K cereal a day and dinner can be what you normally eat. I'm gonna also start excerising both walking and running which will help out alot with losing weight.

Day 2 135lbs!

I'll see how it goes but to be honest I LOVE cereal. I'm really weird. I am the fussiest eater in the world, I hate fruit and I hate water. I like veg but I don't so much like cooking them lol. but cereal is nice and easy, and tasty.

I think part of my problem is not so much what Ieat, it's when I eat. Like I said before I'll skip dinner and won't eat til like 3pm then have loads after that.
I'm going to the gym tomorrow!! I used to go twice a week but since uni started I've had no time for it, but I've got half the day off tomorrow so I'll go then, and next week there's an aerobics class starting on Friday mornings so I'll go to that too. I felt great when I went to the gym, but since I came back off holiday I've just had hardly any time and I feel so flabby now.
