So I'm trying this for the one hundred time, or at least that is what it feels like. 8 weeks after my back surgery and using my back pain as an excuse for not being more active (sciatic nerve pain is painful so really it was a valid excuse) and a recent trip to Portland, OR where everyone is so active, I am ready! My body is still recovering from surgery but I still feel 100% better than how I use to feel. Looking for some buddies to keep me motivated. Let's do this everyone! :happy:

Oh lordy I feel your pain
I have suffered with sciatica since having my beautiful daughters 16 years ago!! Surgery can't fix mine though so Pilates, stretching and painkillers all the way for me
Losing nearly 2 stone has helped

HI, I've restarted today as well. I've gone added sugar free but need a plan now to get more results . I'll add you If you like.0

You can add me if you would like. I am just starting over this week again (don't want to think about how many times this is) after a heath scare that has kept me pretty restricted for about 4 months. Would love some people to motivate and push me, especially about exercising (even if my exercise is somewhat restricted).\0

Good luck, this is your time this time. Feel free to add me and that goes for anybody else looking for new friends.0

Hello everyone! I too have fallen off and want to start again. I'm finding it very hard to make the right food and stay away from the chocolate. I feel like I can't go a day without it. I don't want to do what the dr. wants me to either. Does anyone have some suggestions? I have restarted I think 3 times this summer. I just can't seem to stick with it. Hope you all have a great successful week.0

Maritili, I feel your pain. Chocolate and bread is my weakness. I figured I can't live with out it and it's ok to have in moderation.0

Hi. You are welcome to add me. I have suffered from sciatica for many years as well due to a back injury at a young age and enhanced by 3 pregnancies. I am just starting back up on MFP. I have been absent for quite some time due to giving up on my goals and then becoming pregnant. My third child was born a couple weeks ago and I am ready to start back up and lose this weight. Good luck to you!0

Congrats!! My back pain was also amplified by my pregnancy. Just more things we can guilt trip our kids in the future. LoL I'll add you.Hi. You are welcome to add me.

Hey, I'm close to Portland (seattle) so maybe some time we could meet up and do something active and fun. Message me if you want to chat, you seem like a nice person!
I have a torn ligament in my foot that makes it damn near impossible to even walk, so I've been losing weight purely through diet. 0 -
I feel ya! I was on a roll exercising 3-5x/week and then I injured my wrist (don't recommend trying to lift a whole case of water with one hand!). Waiting for that to heal then I injured my foot and got sidetracked again. This time I am fully committed to sticking with it - no matter what happens - and hopefully I don't make stupid decisions in the future that will injure my body. lol
Good luck to you!0 -
Get well soon!! I have sent you an add request, I'm new to the site and am looking for friends for support and encouragement xxx0

Wish you a quick recovery and congrats for not just wanting to be healthy but taking steps to ensure it happens.
Feel free to add me too.0 -
Thanks everyone! I have gotten some great responses and I'm sure with everyone help I will stay on track!0

Thanks! I only visted Portland but my husband and I are thinking of moving there in a a year or so. It was so beautiful. The northwest area is just so nice. I live in the desert of Las Vegas so everything is brown or beige. The green was a nice change. I'm sorry to hear about your torn ligament. I'm sure it's pretty painful and it's amazing that you are sticking to a diet plan. Awesome!
