I am now 217.4 lbs. My BMI is 30.3, so I am still obese. I was at one point this week 216.2 but I bet you can guess what happened. Yep. Those cookies on Thursday turned it to 219 by the next morning. I am reading Jillian Michael's new book about metabolism. It should help. It was the first time I've seen lithium in a food book. I've heard all sorts of urban lore from first-hand experiences that lithium increases weight and makes you keep it on. I don't believe it, because I've listened to my Dr.'s but there is always that nagging 'this can't work' at the back of my brain. I found a new site. BMI for Females I think I will use this site from now on. It seems more accurate since additional measurements are taken into account. Also, I may just be paranoid but it seems to me that the graphs are skewed. Recommended weights for women in thick of average heights seem to be a good 5 to 10 pounds more than those that start getting over 5'9...
