Thank you for your wonderful post. I appreciate your time, thought, and perspective.
I have made progress...(as I hope we all have)...no longer do I go for large portions of everything and snacks that never seemed to satisfy . I am becoming much more aware of the role of food in my life. These last few weeks I have been working to change negative behaviors that made me feel crummy and have started implementing more positive choices. Change is essential and takes time and patience... let's all keep climbing and continue on in the journey-one day at a time...Glad to be in this group!
Really pleased to be in this group too! To continue the journey metaphor- when you travel with companions, and you step across rocky ground and stumble there are people around you to catch and steady you, and you are there to do the same when they find themselves on uneven ground.0 -
Trying to not just say f-it all and give up. Sick babies and TOM last week, oh 0.6lb gain, well could be worse. Now I've been sick all week, feeling like crap, still tired from last week and now being sick, zero energy, eating all the things then not eating because don't feel well...and...put on 2lbs...in 1 week...:(
so a total gain now since I started of 2.6lbs...

Love thyself...take it easy on you! It is VERY difficult to diet when your energy and emotional resources are depleted. Take care of the babies AND take care of you! I was sick last week-made huge pot of chicken soup with lots of onions, garlic, carrot, celery and chicken broth. Ate lots of soup and salad with tea and it worked! Better than Twinkies. Get some rest (when you can), eat good foods, and you will be better in a few days...and then re-visit the perspective on why you to lose weight. Hang in...we are in your corner!0

late with weigh in....but now
19.5% bodyfat,
thats a 1.2% drop since start and built some muscle so very pleased.
Weigh in today and used the gyms Inbody230 electronic bf machine that u step on and hold electrodes in both hands. It said I was 15.9% bf at the same weight as last week..... I would b impressed but as it's TOM today unfortunately my body is screwing with the machine so next week it will give a bit more actuate reading. It was nice tho thinking I could b that bf% building 2kg of muscle in a week and losing the same in fat....just shows u those machines can be off 5% in bf, so unless u know your own body don't put too much credence into the readings!!!0 -

I've been going up and down all week. I'm not sure, I don't usually fluctuate this much, so it's probably the stress of our move.... Yuck! I usually stay within 1lb of a weight. My husband says our scale didn't like the move too, so maybe it'll settle down.0 -
EXCELLENT!!! Keep up the great work!0

Still sick, Went to the docs...sinusitis and a sinus infection. He said probably because I didn't get any rest that I got sick and then couldn't recover from it. So, now on antibiotics for 2 weeks but hopefully it will take care of everything. My weight has been all over the place, up to 249 at one point but for the last couple of days its been 248.0 so, I'm hoping its just the cold screwing with me. We will see. I have still been logging and it hasn't been looking good. Trying to figure it all out and going to follow the docs orders this weekend of rest, rest, rest. Oh...and the antibiotic can cause tendonitis in some people so he advised me not to exercise til its done...yay....but I can still do stuff like walks so its not all bad.

Sorry to hear you're still sick. Avalox or Levaquin? BE CAREFUL...if prescribed..read the IFU enclosed. They are effective but the proclivity for tendon rupture is very real and can extend beyond the dosing time. Ask your pharmacist. I had better luck with Augmentin 850 without the worry of the tendon issue. This may sound crazy, but I breathe steam with 3 drops each of thyme, clove, and cinnamon leaf essential oils that I ordered from Amazon. That with mucinex and tons of fluids at the start of a cold have kept the badness away! Hang in there and take care of yourself. Keep eating nutritious foods and get rest-hope you get well soon!0

Did my weigh in today! and even with all my setbacks, I lost 2 pounds! woot, here's to getting on track. I decided to get a gym pass and hire a personal trainer... hopefully that will provide some motivation 0

way to go, mooly22! sounds like you have a good plan in place 0

Weigh in day 1/2 lb this week total so far 2.5 better than gaining 0

I've been tightening up on my food this week, since I can't exercise. I did read the info packet on my antibiotic (cipro). My doc didn't tell me anything about it, the packet said do not exercise while taking because of risk of tendonitis. yay. I'm feeling better, still a little phlegmy and sinus pain in the morning, and I was downing mucinex like candy (not really, but taking every 12 hours) that stuff is awesome. Babies are sleeping better, turns out my youngest is waking up because she kicks the covers off and then can't figure out how to get back under them at 3am, so is cold and cries cuz mommy will fix it. Putting her in warmer pjs has solved some of that, gotta get more fleecy/ flannel pjs though for her. Lost 1lbs this week
