      I can't do as much exercise because of my back, but aqua classes help and walking isn't bad so I am going to do that

      I'm back after a hiatus due to a health issue. I think my SW is artificially low, I've been dehydrated because of swallowing problems. Not trying to lose weight right now, just making sure I eat enough protein daily and don't fall into a sugar trap, since I have the perfect excuse to live on shakes and malts. Just a holding pattern this month!

      I had a really big loss in March because me eating healthy is radically different to me in full throws of binge eating disorder, a lot of that loss was water from inflammation and swelling that went down when stopped binge eating stuff I am intolerant to. I hope to lose 10lb in April.

      Well---I am going to jump in with the weight loss challenge. I think it will help me stay on track --I can totally use a bit of incentive!
      My goal is a bit lower than most of you, but I know that I lose slowly...being over 50 and hovering right at my calorie limit.
