    I hate this, but it's another pass day for me. 2/3

    Is it the tracking or the calorie limit that’s proving difficult? If your calorie limit is set too low, it will always be a struggle. It could be helpful to raise your limit a bit. Too low will just set yourself up for “failure”. Slow but positive results will help build momentum. 🤗💐

    Report for Wednesday:
    Exercise - yes, walking round the airport, reached over 12,000 steps.
    Tracking - yes, breakfast at home, sandwiches on the journey were in packs with labels.
    Calories under allowance? Only just, I'm allowing myself a temporary uplft to 2,000 a day plus exercise while on holiday.

    Another pass.
    Passes used up.

    May 2022-UAC goals: 1/7 days. Hopefully, I will start to post some more successful days of reaching the goals.

    Thanks to all of you who are so supportive & tolerant of those like me who are struggling but keep returning, here.

    And, thank you to those who are posting without comments. Y’all are inspiring even if can only post “3 yeses “. It is great to see that even if I’m in a hurry, I can still keep track here & that it is not required to comment on posts.

    I know that I haven’t been successful here, yet, but I have it in me to do this!
    My goals here will start being met. I can do it.

    And thank you to the others who post here that are in similar boat as me. It helps knowing that I’m not the only one.

    Thanks @SilverSage1
    Sometimes, long story, my body is in pain and I can't barely move. I can't do any exercise, not even walking. I have to wait until the pain is bearable.

    Just jumping in with some cheer and support for Wednesday’s folks… 🥰

    Champion behaviour through reporting in 🏆

    @Elbee1 I see your struggle and you are successful when you keep showing up. You do have it in you to do this. 💛 Have you tried to focus on just one of the three UAC goals for a short period? Continue with us and keep reporting in — but give yourself one consistent “win” every day. And then grow your success from there? 💐 @StayFITTer is right — the light is always on here — and a good reminder for us all. 💡

    Thank you! I have been hyper-focusing on tracking no matter if bad. Don't think that I've missed any days of tracking so far this month... maybe 1. My other goal has been to report in every day to UAC even if bad day... I am hoping to put together a plan this weekend and start exercising this weekend...

    I am worried a bit, too

    One specialist doc took my symptoms & prescribed medicine but said PCP would need to do if pre authorization is required as they don’t have resources to do that outside of their specialty area

    My PCP (who has been dramatic different in the past 6-9 months) almost angry. Not smiling. Basically refused to do it & asked me to get the other doc
    To get In Contact with Jim’s

    My parathyroid hormone
    Was 218 April 2022
    69 Jan 2021
    124, 70, 106, 76 in 2020
    57, 55 2019
    92, 165, 60, 61, 67 in 2018

    I’m tempted to get a re-test.

    But when I look up
    Symptoms…Fatigue (even posting my food seems to wear me out - very odd), tire easily, depression (mild but a change for sure) muscle/joint pain, and dramatic loss of bone
    Mineral density (now osteoporosis)…
    I have them - new since October.

    Big hugs - ty for caring
    Maddie

    @MadisonMolly2017 As if you need any further source of stress — your PCP should be helping reduce it rather than cause it 😠😤

    Stick with it in asking for retesting and I hope (for goodness sakes) one of them will just do the prescription. It sounds like something is going on (and thank goodness you do attend to your health as a priority and note and respond to changes by seeking out medical support).

    I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and hope that you can get some medical support to turn this around. All of your symptoms are unacceptable if there is a way to get them managed. I know doctors and all healthcare workers have had a terrible time through the pandemic. But so have many of their patients with complex medical needs.

    Sending encouragement 💐
