    Struggling over here! I'm within my calories but I was told no exercise by my physical therapist (back pain) and I'm grumpy, bloated and frustrated. Grrr.

    Everyone else is kickin' butt though and I'm happy to see it!

    @joans1976 Sorry to hear that, but it's still something to celebrate that you did not see a gain and stuck with your calorie goal. Good job! @guinevere96 5 lbs is fantastic progress, nice one!

    TOM/period time for me. But...I'm not frustrated. I looked at last month's TOM weight...146.2lb. I'm 3lbs less than last cycle, and that's a WIN!!!

    So, for those very sensitive to hormonal bloating and inflammation, keep that in mind.

    @lolo_bunny preach it sister. I know it's the truth. The lack of exercise has got me grumpy.
    @williams969 way to stay positive! And it's the truth!
    @jopalis you hit your goal!

    Joans....hang in there. To stay the same or just have small losses is a feat under the circumstances. Far better than gaining. Drink plenty of water and add a squeeze of lemon for the bloating. Maybe some fiber as well but be sure to drink plenty. Maybe ask p.t. or a doc if you can just do a little walking. For me being a little active makes me feel better than just sitting. The p.t. I was seeing ended up causing me an additional injury. But that's just me. Hang in there.... Eat more things with less calories when can't be active. Plenty veggies... Hugs!

    @jopalis thank you for your kind words! I swam today-I can't sit still any longer. Just light laps but I did feel it. I've been released from PT, it didn't help. I'm on to a pain specialist in 2 days, then an MRI in 4 days. I am a water FIEND. People make fun of me because of my water bottle! I didn't think about the lemon though! I'm within my calories every day. Lack of exercise made everything slow down. I'm going to BEG the dr on Wednesday for safe exercises. I lost 40 pounds to help with my back pain, not hinder it!
    Thank you! ❤️

    hang in there joans 1976. My husband had back surgery for L4 and another one. If you need the surgery, don't wait. You can get some permanent nerve damage. Swimming is great. Or maybe one of those water classes. Just don't overdue. It's not worth it. You are doing great!

    Please give encouragement to others.

    NOTE: These posts reset at 500. If the thread locks go to the last post and look for the link to get to the second installment.

    To make things easier let's keep the same weigh-in days from last month what was a Saturday but if you want to do it on another that is fine.
    Will September be a new thread or continuation of this one? Thank you!
