Welcome NE. This is a wonderful group. Supportive and enlightening. Glad you joined us.
Liz. I'm not going gluten free just yet. I just bought a whole bunch of products that have gluten in it and I'm going to go ahead and eat those because I can't afford to revamp the house like I did last time I gave a whole bunch of food away and it was extremely costly to switch over to gluten-free cost 600 bucks so while I still have gluten-free flour I have coconut oil organic and I'll kinds of stuff like that I won't be going back to gluten-free probably for a while.
I think it's a wheat sensitivity hopefully when I get the biopsy results in a couple weeks maybe the doctor can tell me more maybe it's too much sodium in my diet I'm really not sure I lean more towards the gluten sensitivity though.0 -
I hope you will All check out my picture and recipe in the recipe section it was very filling lots of veggies for only 307 cal. I personally thought it was much tastier than a slice of pizza.0

Karen, I totally understand about switching over the kitchen. I used keep 6-9 months of staples and when I had to switch it was ugly. I don't keep as much now as the flours and pastas don't have the same shelf life. I am glad you came through the tests so well. Hopefully now they will be able to tell you what is going on.0

Hi all, what an eventful week for everyone!
Cindy and mdwstQT, I hope you both feel better soon. The crud that is going around this winter is really bad, I'm still run down.
NEKrebel - welcome! It's great to meet you. I feel very lucky to have found this group on MFP. I'm sorry your doctor isn't supportive but you can find lots of good tips and suggestions here. Many of us are also dealing with various medical issues and it does make managing our weight more complicated. But it can be done and eating well also really has helped my overall recovery.
Karen - I'm so glad you are getting some medical answers. Let us know how you are feeling as you work with the gluten issue - I hope it really helps.
Also I wanted to share my first major non-scale victory since joining MFP - I'm down a bra size!! I'm really big busted and because of neck and shoulder injuries from a car accident and previous surgery, it's actually a big problem. I think a lot about breast reduction surgery but I am hoping that it won't be necessary if I lose weight.
So the exciting news is that I am both down 2 inches band size, and a full cup size. I ordered my new bras and they just came today. Yay!!!

Woo Hoo Barlovo!!! I totally understand the happiness of that NSV!!! I too have always been very top heavy
It has always made me very self conscious and uncomfortable especially when I was young! So far whenever I lose weight...that is NOT a place I lose! I am so happy for you!!! 0 -
Cindy - my cup size actually went UP when I first started losing weight. I was devastated! But after I dropped about 40 lbs, it started going down. I hope I can drop a couple more sizes before this is done.0

I lost 2.8 pounds this weigh in. I weigh in every Sunday. I'm soooo happy. Woot! 0 -

Hi All~
I'm still feeling pretty lousy. I called my Drs office today and spoke with her Physician's Assistant for a good 20 min on the phone...they didn't want me to come in after their interrogation...says it sounds like a virus. I guess they are trying to keep the spreading of the bug to a minimum. They gave me things to watch for and if I get worse I will be taken right in. So for today I have been LAZY! Drinking diet ginger ale and some water...had some homemade veggie soup I made the other day, and have been sleeping on and off most of the day. I did do some light stretching earlier but even that wiped me out and I fell asleep again. I'm kinda bummed out because I started that Biggest Loser Group challenge today and have been very motivated to start and feel like CRAP! I'm hoping to sleep a little more solidly tonight and maybe be able to do our challenge workout tomorrow...we shall see. Thanks for asking about me!
I hope you all are having FAB_U_LOSS days! 0 -
Cindy I am glad you are resting. Don't push the exercise - listen to your body, it will know what it needs. I h0
-
Cindy I'm with Barlovo, don't push the exercise right now. Your body needs the rest and recuperating. Keep lots of fluids in. Praying you get better soon.0

Waving hello QT, finally got some sunshine in California after several days of rain. It will rain again this weekend so I'm going to use this sunshine to walk the dog. When I say walk the dog my gf walks and I use my powered wheel chair, I cannot walk as far as he wants to go. He goes at least a quarter of a mile. One day I will walk it though

I've been missing so much lately with my work load! I do check in & read the comments as often as possible, but can't seem to find a few minutes to type something up!
Anyway, congrats to Barvolo for the boob loss! I'm also pretty busty & I get terrible neck & backaches from it. I have to laugh at my friends who say they'd love to have what i have. You wouldn't want it if you had to endure the pain that went along with it! Not to mention not being able to spend less than $50 on a bra because otherwise they're freaking useless.
Congrats to Karen for your loss! The ball is rolling!0 -
Rest up Cindy. Let your body heal then you can kick butt in the challenge!
You're right Karen, you WILL walk the dog.
Tomorrow is hump daaaaay!0 -
