I ate nothing for several day with the stomach bug and ended my week with a binge last night. I always gain weight when I am sick and the binge didn’t help. It is what it is! Also, it is important for me to remember that a year ago I weighed 230.6.
Be back to catch up on post later.7 -

I just woke up. I got up early as I knew the back specialist was calling between 8 am and 11am. He called shortly after 8. I didn’t sleep well last night and I binged because I knew what he was going to say. There are no more injections he can do. I now have to see a surgeon in his office. I fell asleep right after that. I am bummed as I am not keen on have surgery on my spine and I know I have to put Scotland on the back burner for now. I am going to talk with both my daughters about Scotland( ones a nurse and the other less than a year away) and get their thoughts. The Covid situation doesn’t make it ideal for travelling right now anyway. This is also a it’s what it is monument. In the meantime, I am going to continue with massage and chiropractor soon. I am going to start physio that offers aqua therapy on Tuesday. Hopefully, soon I will get into the pain clinic very soon and they may offer some new forms of relief. I am also going to do my best to lose the weight gained since mid December plus some. Sorry for the rant.
My oldest granddaughter is coming over tonight and her sister on Saturday. That will keep me busy. What are your guys weekend plans, the first one after the holidays?
Happy FriYAY!5 -

I can tell I'm retaining a lot of water right now...salt? carbs? I don't know but I've got those fabric lines all over my body every time I stand up. Ugh.

@rwood566 Amazing steps - I'm so sorry about the lightheadedness - I hope it goes away soon!
@jayenguk This will definitely be your year! I hope to be joining you with regard to reaching goal weight!
@Bluetail6 You are back on track - and have been doing so well in the grand scheme of things - you will get to that goal weight!
@Lessennan Having a plan for food and exercise is so helpful when trying to lose weight!
@sweetlady9783 and @alexanderrob Amazing losses! Congrats!

Absolutely ...you just tell me a step pledge that you want to hit daily and post your steps either daily or weekly ... also tell me how long on your stationary bike and if it was leisurely, moderate and vigorously and I will convert it for you 1 -

Megan, thank you! I think I'll do 10K then. I'll probably post weekly when I do my weigh in.
This is motivating. 2
