hi all
yes I realised about the magnesium, but since I have upset stomach almost every day at some point, I really don't want to make it worse
I am going to try bathing in Epsom salts - which is magnesium, and can be absorbed through the skin and should help muscles along the way
re. B12, I had bloods done 3 weeks ago and it was totally fine, as was my vit D - for the first time in several years
I think I will get some rock salt as it clearly has far more sodium than sea salt (although I wonder about the mining ethics)
I looked at the report section of mfp and the sodium chart - oh my word it was low, only once in the 10 days I have been on here has it almost reached 2500mg
although of course it is only counting the sodium in the foods and not the added sodium as I never bother to include that because I cannot weigh a pinch of salt
so - last week I lost 4.5 lb and this week? half a pound
?????????????????
doing the same
except for the humungous cheats of 1 small glass of milk, and 2 gf choc chip cookies - in the whole week for goodness sake
my body is fighting to hang on to all the gross fat it can, and I hate it
if its not refusing to lose, its giving me stomach upsets, or the opposite, or making me too tired to walk, or making my hips too painful, or something happens to my foot
oh what a winge bag, but it feels like my body wants to be fat and stay fat
AND I DONT WANT THAT0 -

I'm just going to drop this here. Full of truth, and not just because I wrote it.
Myself, I'm 7.8lb above my goal weight. But my clothes fit better, and I look smaller than I did 6 months ago when I was 150.

Patience, young Padawan. Patience and time. Which is damn hard, I know. You don't know me, but I lost 102lb. So I know the frustration and the hard. Scale nonsense is frustrating in the extreme! It's hard to remember that it's nonsense, but it IS NONSENSE. Consistency, persistence, patience, and time. Stick with it. As my friend @SuperCarLori says, "Time is going to pass anyway." What are we going to do with that time? We're going to use it to improve our health and coax some weight off. And all those efforts, even though it's probably going to happen much slower than we want, are going to pay off. The effort is worth it. YOU are worth it! Hang in there.
