@cherrymajoni Congratulations and welcome back!
@trooworld So glad you're sleeping better, it makes a world of difference when you do.
Hi everyone, I'm way behind! The pain clinic wasn't very promising, it was the PA and not the doctor and she'd never heard of anyone injured like me so that was discouraging but she wants to research it so we'll see if it's just talk or she follows through. She wants me on pain killers and anti depressants then I asked for physical therapy so all of it is in referrals. I just stopped an anti depressant because of weight gain but I'm in worse pain so I'll have to weigh the pros and cons of it. I stopped gaining at least (I'm technically logging where I should be losing about .5-1lb a week so this stinks) so I'm at 175, I put half my weight back but have stopped gaining since I stopped steroids a few months ago. I can't have it as my main focus right now because if I'm in so much pain I don't want to live then what's the use of not using something?
On a fun note my friend is picking me up at Noon to go to her house for the day and lay around watching movies and getting take-out, throughout all of this I've really been craving time with my girl friends so I can't wait. I've talked about her before, we've been friends since I was pre-teen in the neighborhood I grew up in, she's like a big sister to me and we're about 45 minutes apart now. The other COVID thing I've wanted is to be by water (preferably a beach) but I can't get that far yet.1 -

@TwistedSassette I hope you can get a really good night’s sleep and feel better.
@trooworld Wahoo on the weight loss!! Kick some butt at the boxing class.
@Katmary71 Well, I certainly do hope that they research your pain issues and can offer you some real help. And I agree that if you are in that much pain you have to take something for it and let your weight be what it will be. You can manage it some by eating healthy foods that are good for you anyway and do what exercise you can. I think spending some quality time with your girlfriend is also great medicine.
@Firefly743 and @Cornanda Great weight loss this week!!

I didn't exercise at all this week because of my schedule and the weather.
My hormones and cravings contributed to my weight gain this week too.
I am creating a new plan for August to help me get back on track
because the exercising has really made a difference for me.2 -
Hi all. My test came back negative, no COVID! Life can go on as usual now. On another note, after 2-3 years of horrible sleep, I think I've found the key to better sleep for me: using our portable A/C unit in the bedroom. I get hot and wake up apparently. I've been getting mostly "GOOD" sleep scores according to Fitbit for the past 4 weeks that we've been using the A/C unit at night.
My phrase for the year: CHANGE HAPPENS
Glad to hear you received great news with the negative test results! Yay! for the portable A/C improving your sleep! That should really help improve your energy levels too since you will have a better quality of sleep.

Wrong thread, sorry0

Sorry for the delay in weigh in. We had a very busy day yesterday. We had some good eating too!! One of my nieces is being deployed and we had a couple of gatherings for her. It's both exciting and scary at the same time. Sad to know I will not see her for a while. We also had to help her get things settled before leaving. I know she will be alright though. I'm trusting that!!

My knee also started hurting again yesterday. Maybe it's because of all we did. I'm praying it gets better. I do not want to have to get another shot in 3 months.

As I have managed to stay under 160 (my goal weight) for the whole month of July I am going to bow out and head to the maintenance zone for a while.
I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for their words of wisdom and encouragement, without which I probably would not have succeeded!
Wishing you all the very best in your personal journeys and (in the nicest possible way) hope not to have to re-join this group in the future!!
Let's clear up some info about being in the Goal Zone! You ARE still part of the Slimpossibles, just on a different part of the spreadsheet! You DO still weigh in on your chosen day, and aim to stay within your goal (usually about a 5 pound spread). If you go over your top weight for 2 weeks, you automatically get put back on the regular part of the team until that is gone. You still post here, keep up with the team, and can also drop into the chat thread for those of us on maintenance, but you do not leave your home team. Maintenance is a skill and you can be there to inspire people to join you in that zone!1 -
