Not New but Back

I went off MFP for a while to reconsider what I wanted. I have decided that I want to have friends who are supportive of my weight loss efforts. I am a CHF patient and thus have a difficult time losing weight due to fluid retention. My goal is to lose 30 pounds by the end of the year. I am starting back on my Zumba video and watching my sodium.

    I am with you on both points, I am not new but back. And, I have peripartum cardiomyopathy which has chf as a side effect. Water retention can be tricky, it is hard to tell if you really gained back weight or if you are just retaining extra fluid. I added sodium as one of the items that I track which has helped. Sodium hides everywhere. Hang in there!
