    July: Week #2

    Original starting weight: 273

    PW: 160.3
    CW: 161.3

    Going in the wrong direction. Unfortunately I have been on Prednisone for the last week and it has made me absolutely miserable. I can't sleep, I feel bloated .....yuck. Last week I wasn't so great with my steps either (only 55,000 for the week). I have had a bad cough and the Dr. thinks it could be inflammation from allergies. I hope this week is better.

    I hope you. feel better soon.

    I know that I was stressed yesterday. My mom, who is near 90, lives in NYC. I call her daily and her phone call yesterday has me feeling guilty. She thinks that this virus is all nonsense. I think some of this has become so political it is so hard to know what is true and what is not. In any case, I was feeling so bad I am going to visit her today ( I live 3 hours away ) in normal times I would have hopped on the train and gone down but I don't feel it is normal times so my husband and I will drive down. He had work yesterday. I have tried to have her live with me or one of my siblings but she is an independent lady and does not want to. She also does not really like to have someone live with her. My daughter had an internship for a semester in college and asked when the internship ended if she could spend the following week with her. My mother said "no". I am one of four children but my sister passed away from cancer about 5 years ago. I know my brother who lives even further away is having difficulties during this time as he owns a restaurant and a brewery in a resort area and between closures and then difficulty getting help things have not been good. My sister has some lung difficulties and although she lives the closest in NY it is not good for her to travel although she too does not believe in the virus. I feel like this is crazy times. Something to me that is black and white is not. Sorry for the long post I just know that my emotions impact my health and then also how I control these emotions.Thanks for giving me a place that if nothing else I could spill them out.

    OK. I'm back. Ive been slacking off and not watching for the last 6 months or so. I've been checking in but not making much more of an effort beyond that. Well, that's it! I'm back on track and ready to get this done.

    For those who don't know, I'll give a little history. My highest weight was 340#. Got down to 313.3/when I started this challenge about a year ago. My low was 219 but I 'm back up to 225.2. So, thats where I stand. Not real sure of goal, but somewhere around 150 or so.

    Good luck to all.

    You will get back on track. I know it can be frustrating at times. Myself, I started at 266 in Dec and have struggled with my weight my whole life. But we got this! :smiley:

    It would’ve been my late grandmother’s 89th birthday. She died fifteen years ago. I miss her. I worked my regular part time job and filled in at a cousin’s work, so I’ve been up eighteen hours on four hours’ sleep working almost twelve hours. I made myself go to the gym after I got off at 8pm.
