Update on Hunter: Lithium levels are off the chart (literally so elevated, it couldn't count it). Caused kidney toxicity. She's been admitted to ICU for emergency dialysis. The nurse is starting a 6 hour dialysis and i was told she'll be in ICU for 2 to 3 days.7

Just a really quick check in, this not sleeping has been knocking me on my butt.
@TeresaW1020 so sorry that happened with your husband, that must’ve been scary! I know with seniors electrolytes can wreak such havoc!! Glad they were able to quickly get a handle on it!
@vegan4lyfe2012 I am so sorry that you are going through this with your daughter, your poor daughter! That really has to be so scary for both of you, you are definitely in my thoughts and prayers♥️
My day isn’t so busy tomorrow, so I will check in, in the afternoon, when I still have some brain cells left

@GabiV125 - my husband and I joke that once you are in your 50s it is possible to hurt yourself while sleeping.....
Oh the joys! Good for you, losing while on vacation. Glad you had such a good visit with your daughter.
@Katmary71 - Yay you for doing lunges etc without falling. You work very hard to stay active and it can't be easy with the pain you have.
@vegan4lyfe2012 - I will pray for you and your daughter. Oh boy, now I just read the dialysis post. Hugs to you.....very scary for Mom when a kiddo is sick.
@leonadixon - glad you are back on track- that's awesome!
@TeresaW1020 - Yes, I make lots of lists, and sometimes I wonder if it's a waste of time, but I guess it helps me think things through?
@RYcare - glad to hear you are having a good healthy week!
@lose4me71 - nice loss!
@trooworld - I'm hoping those headaches will back off on you soon. Nice deficits you are scoring this week. And your fitbit doesn't have to know everything lol!
Well, I have joined the insomnia group this week. Sometimes when I am awake at night I eat things. And then when I'm tired in the am, I slack off on exercise. Between that and my weekend splurge, and fatigue, I'm not feeling too good about anything right now. I'm going to go take a long walk and get my head together so I don't go on some kind of "I'm discouraged" binge and make things worse. I know I can get back on track asap and I will, just have to get that to be the predominant message in my mind.

@vegan4lyfe2012 Holy cow, your poor daughter, no wonder she's feeling awful! I hope she starts to feel better soon and bounces back fast. I hope there's no long-lasting issues with her kidneys and this clears up fast, good thing you got her to the hospital fast. Huge hug!
@trooworld Glad you're getting a break from the awful headaches today, hope your day is awesome! I can be cheerful feeling pretty awful but if I have a headache (especially migraines) I'm a grouch.
@Cornanda I hope the walk helps, it's definitely harder to stay on track not getting enough rest with cortisol then you don't feel like moving because you don't have energy. I hope tonight you get a great night's sleep!
Hi gang, I'm listening to an energy medicine summit this week, it's pretty interesting because it combines a lot of different things. I signed up for a yoga summit too so I'll be doing that at nights, hopefully it's not too hard because it's an hour long! I like short videos, at least it's only 5 days so it's a short time-commitment! Not much really going on, I'm doing a lot in the yard and did my workout then have been reading a lot. Another day of squats and holding-onto-the-desk lunges!2 -

@Katmary71 - thank you, I did get a good night's sleep last night! Enjoy your summits!
@trooworld - So, your scale was hiding it's dishonesty from you? Shame on it!
My walk yesterday helped some, but I sorta stayed in the "I've already ruined it, so what's the difference mode yesterday." It was not a binge, but I did not make the healthiest choices. I fully recognize that I did not put in the work I needed to this past week. I'm back on track as of today! It's a new day, I know what works and I will do it.

I have been feeling so discouraged about my rapid weight gain, and haven't been eating healthy or exercising. I decided to get back on track today, and have a long workout scheduled for tomorrow.
I hate thinking about how my lowest weight was in January of this year at 205 lbs. I can only move forward now and get back on track to accomplish my health goals.4 -
@TeresaW1020 Glad to hear your hubby is doing much better!
@vegan4lyfe2012 Praying for your daughter's complete recovery, and for your peace while you are helping her with her recovery.
Welcome to all of our new members!
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

😔 I was doing good until Wednesday then I lost it Thursday & Friday. I just don’t do good when I am upset and stressed- had a whole chipotle burrito on Thursday & Nothing Bundt Cake on Friday. So I am back to 248…
Today I will be planning next week meals & snacks so I don’t fall again.

@vegan4lyfe2012 I am continuing to pray for Hunter and for you!
@trooworld That is good that your DH discovered the issue with the scale. That could explain some of your more erratic weight gains that didn’t make any sense.
@Cornanda I’m glad that you are back on track. I know it can be hard when you are in the “I’ve already ruined it” mindset. You will get that gain off!
@TheGlwUp I understand your frustration and discouragement but the best thing you can do it draw that mental line in the sand and just start moving forward. You can do it and we are here for you!
Good morning, Team! So, yesterday I was just going to clean my house and get it ready to put up Christmas. Well, my tree is up and ready for me to decorate and all the boxes have been brought out into the open. So, while hubby watches his precious Georgia Bulldogs, I will be transforming our home into a glittery display of merriment.
I thought I better write now because I predict that I will be very exhausted by the end of the day. But it will be done and that will be wonderful!
Day 45 of the 100-day challenge—Work out will be decorating my house since my workout space is full of boxes. Eating should be on point. I’m planning a chicken salad for dinner.

My name is Hannah, and I live in Iowa with my husband. I teach high school students with significant cognitive disabilities. I am also involved in my church and enjoy sewing, walking, and traveling. My motivation for joining this group is to achieve a healthy weight and have more energy to do the things I enjoy.
@vegan4lyfe2012 Praying for you and your daughter.2 -

Another quick update on Hunter. They did three 6-hour sessions of dialysis and her lithium level is now back in a normal range. She's been moved out of ICU and into the general patient area. Since she hadn't been taking her antipsychotic meds, she was seeing things today like bugs in her cereal. Thankfully she's old enough now to realize when she's seeing things that aren't there. The doctors are slowly adding her meds back in and tomorrow her team will be working on possible alternatives to the lithium. They are keeping an eye on her kidneys and the specialist is pretty confident they will be able to repair themselves with no lasting damage. Thank you to all of you prayer warriors. It was a real possibility just a few days ago that I'd lose my baby. Thanking God for bringing her through this and His continued hand on her as she continues healing. She will be in the hospital for a few more days.5

@vegan4lyfe2012 Thank goodness Hunter is doing better and in good hands. That's so frightening, I hope she's stable soon and able to come back home.
Hi gang, I just got back from hanging out with my brother, SIL, and nephew. My SIL had a biopsy right before I went there last time and the kids didn't know and I couldn't ask today in front of one of them so I just found out it was negative via text, thank goodness! I've been praying like mad! I had my pain clinic appointment yesterday and it was my first time seeing a doctor there, he's very pro-spinal cord stimulators, I've been hammered about them for years along with drug pumps (all implanted in the spine) and don't feel that great about it because anything that's been put in me that's foreign (spinal fusion hardware most notably) has had to come out. He really felt with the extent of my damage being worse in the legs it would help but I don't know, sometimes you get them implanted and covered by insurance but if there's issues you can't get it removed. I could have a week trial and decide from there but I'm not in a rush. I'm doing fairly well with the yoga series, the last two nights were a little more physical then I was expecting but you know me and challenges.
Have a great Sunday my friends!3 -

@trooworld Mmm chicken and beer sounds good to me! And yes, it is a journey toward good health and fitness. Those who sprint almost always end back at the starting line.
@vegan4lyfe2012 That is wonderful news about Hunter and that she is improving! Did the doctors explain why her lithium levels were so high? I know how scared you were. I will continue to pray for you both.
@Katmary71 that is a wonderful praise report for you SIL! I will pray that you make the right decision about the spinal meds. I can see the pros and cons of such a treatment.
Good morning! I’m sitting here getting some work done because we had to cancel Sunday school today. It seems that the gas company only turned on the gas for our main building and forgot our other building. And of course, they can’t come out and fix their mistake until Tuesday.
I’m getting my grocery list and other computer stuff done so I can finish my decorating when I come home. Tomorrow, mom and I are going to Hobby Lobby to get a few things that I'm in need of. The scale is not budging so I need to really push harder this week to get this gain off.
Day 46 of the 100-day challenge—Work out will be finishing the house decorations. Eating will be good today. It has to be!!

Hunter's port was removed from her neck today and she was able to shower. They are monitoring her blood and as long as she's stable by tomorrow, she'll get to come home. She's looking much happier!

Sorry, we use kg instead of lbs over here.
Hello everyone, how did the first week of November go? I can't believe the year is almost over. My week was mostly good. Except I went over my calories by 1000ish on Friday. I went out with friends and over indulged with wine. I felt terrible the next day. But strangely I didnt affect the scales much on my weekly weigh-in.
@vegan4lyfe2012 I'm glad Hunter is feeling much better. Sending good thoughts and prayers2
