For your indigestion and tightness in the throat I'd look into acid reflux or GERD. Maybe try some over the counter acid reducers and see if that helps, sometimes it takes up to 2 weeks for you to notice a difference though. 33 pounds is an awesome accomplishment! The holidays are tough, but maybe the present you'll see will be a loss. I'm hoping to at least maintain through the holidays and just not gain. Good luck!! You can do this!
