    This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

    7/27 135.5 The aftermath of sitting in a car for 2 days. As I have said before, it takes 2 or 3 days for my food and activities to be reflected on the scale.

    @jerier I am/was that person for at least one friend. For over a decade while her son was in prison and living on the streets she called at least once or twice a week crying. I was always there to listen. I used to get together with a small group of ladies and every time I tried to enter the conversation someone spoke over me. It is frustrating for sure. I, too, am at that point. I am much happier keeping to myself and ignoring everything else.

    @mthomas0228 thank you.

    Thank you to @brightresolve also!

    I had shingles when I was pregnant with my now 4 year old. I was only 27 at the time. It sucks. Rest and get better but know that it’ll run its course and you’ll be back at it.
    Off the rails last round, lets get back on track! It's going to be a hard round with a family camping trip at the end.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    7/27--No weigh in. Well. When I said this round would be hard, this wasn't what I had in mind...I went to the dermatologist Thursday afternoon to address a weird burning sensation in my upper arm. Turns out I am likely in the beginning stages of shingles(!). I am a bit young to get shingles (36) although you can really get them at any age if you've had chicken pox. The doctor writes me a note and tells me not to go back to work, go home, get in bed, and stay there all weekend. Between the extensive rest and the prescription for Valtrex, we are hoping we can stop it in its tracks. So that's what I've done. I've been in bed since Thursday afternoon. It's boring and I keep thinking about the things I had planned to do this weekend. DH reminds me that stress is one of the things that leads to shingles and I need to stop worrying about household chores because they don't matter. He has been bringing me meals in bed and I am not tracking or logging anything.
    7/28--177.0 Decided to visit the scale on my way to soaking in a nice Epsom salt bath; this cheered my mood. I would have expected worse. Shingles pain, by the way, is terrible, and I am now an advocate for everybody getting the shingles vaccine. It's recommended if you're over the age of 50. I did some research on diet changes that can help/hurt a case of the shingles. I have added more chicken, orange juice, and bananas to my diet, and am avoiding chocolate, caffeine, sugar, and processed carbs. So far I don't have any blisters, although my arm is very sensitive and painful. No exercise, just bed rest. I feel like this explains a lot about the past week--why I have been feeling tired and unmotivated. These can be the very first signs of shingles. Here I was beating myself up thinking I need to get back with the program, when really I had this virus starting to attack my body.
