    Okay ... went back to the doctors to see if it's normal to be feeling so yucky with the antibiotics and she said that’s just what antibiotics do ... they wreak havoc on the digestive system ... so I'll suck it up and I'll be done with them on Monday. I've decided to give myself a break for now. My tummy feels better when there's something in it and I'll get back to fighting the fight starting on Tuesday. Sometimes you just have to roll with it.

    I’ve also had terribly sore feet for a couple of months now. I was told by a doctor years ago that I have arthritis in my feet. They hurt sometimes and then it will stop and so on and so on. But this time it’s just getting worse all the time … so my doctor that I have now is telling me it probably isn’t arthritis … she says it’s rare that arthritis will hit the feet. Really??? Anyway … I’m off to see a Dr. tomorrow who specializes in the treatment of feet. Hopefully we’ll get all this fixed up and next week I’ll be back to my full force healthy life mission. Woo Hoo!!!!!

    I hope you start feeling better soon magglett. I would HIGHLY recommend taking a probiotic supplement. Antibiotics kill of the 'good bacteria' that you need to digest food and probiotics help replace them.

    Sorry I've been MIA...I've been logging my food and exercise...just haven't had time this week to post AT ALL! I'm so sick of being so crazy busy! But...come June...things should slow down...hehehe how long til then?!

    I'm starting to get SUPER sick of this cold weather...it's brutal out there this morning. And to make matters worse...when I woke up this morning our house was 62 degrees!! EEEEKKKKKKK...waking up to work out at 4:30 and instantly freezing your muscles as soon as you get out of bed is a BAD way to start the day. Hopefully things will improve.

    It sounds like most people are doing well...can't wait to see what happens with this weeks weigh in. I was TERRIBLE this last weekend and sick Sunday then Monday took a 3rd day off of working out and went out to eat for dinner with my beau (we never get the time to have dinner together so I went with it). Haven't been on the scale since last friday and I'm TERRIFIED of what I might see! BUT...this was a recovery week and I know next week will be INSANE again with Insanity...so here's to hoping I maintained :)

    Good Luck everybody :)

    I use to be the manager of a rehabilitation department and I learned from the physical therapists that sometimes diabetes can yield something called diabetic retinopathy which can cause a lot of pain in the bottoms of the feet and can sometimes be mistaken for arthritis or other disorders. Just was curious! I hope you feel better soon!!

    Magglett keep your head up, things are bound to get better soon!

    I'm weighing in today instead of tomorrow because I'm going on vacation tonight and I won't have access to a scale (plus I know I won't be losing this weekend). I'm happy to report I'm down 3.2 lbs since last week which means I hit my Valentine's day goal right on the head at 165!!! Good luck to everyone with the weigh-in tomorrow and I'll be back next week. Now if I can just maintain while I'm in ATL....

    This morning was kindof a funny weigh in. I only expected to maintain b/c of how bad my weekend was and I took 3 days completely off and then this week was Insanity recovery week...BUT I lost!!

    So I got on the scale this morning and saw 130.2. I was like wow...good...I lost .6 pounds...I'll take that...I didn't expect any loss.. But while I was in the shower I was like wait a minute...wasn't I 131.8 last week? Wouldn't that be 1.6 pounds lost? So I weighed myself 2 more times throughout the morning to make sure I was right! LOL

    I've never lost more than 1 pound at a time...SO EXCITING!!!!

    Can't wait to say goodbye to the 130s next week...I don't think I've been under 130 since sometime in college...in my first few years of college probably!

    YEAH! What a way to start the weekend :)
    Can't wait to see the spreadsheet and see the big losses again this week...I LOVE THIS GROUP...so motivated...and dedicated! Keep it up :)

    Okay all ... the specialist was incredible ... I think I love him ... I do have Plantar fasciitis ... have had it for a long time, have been able to control it for years, but it's other stuff now too. I will be getting orthotics and other treatments. He showed me some new exercises and gave me my first treatment and it's already made such a difference. It will be a lot easier to exercise soon :happy:
