The last few days I've been feeling really sick, with an upset stomach and lack of energy. Could I please be excused from my next weigh-in day on Saturday 23rd, so I can take some time to rest and recuperate. Just need to concentrate on getting better.
Thank you,
Karly
P.S @Slimmersixties Love the jar idea! Once I'm feeling better, I'll have to give it a try.
Have a great week everyone,
Sickness and upset stomach = less food and more weight loss! I'd be looking forward to this week's weigh in!0 -

You're probably right! lack of food does equal more weight loss. Not the best way to lose weight, but a loss is a loss. I'll go ahead and Weigh-In on Saturday. We'll see what not eating does!!0 -

Great job!Hey everyone, I am so sick! Fever, body aches, chills, sore throat, teeth and head hurts. Right when I start to up my steps again. I feel like something keeps dragging me down everytime I go to focus on me. I need some positive vibes please. I hope all of you are doing well and staying away from the flu bug.
Sorry you are feeling sick. Sending you lots of post vibes.aactuallyaash wrote: »

Mini Walk: 2/5
I have been dealing with pain in the lower left side of my stomach since before I went to Vegas. It was annoying but It has got a lot more intense since Sunday. Finally gave in and made a doctors appointment. I see her Monday. I will head to urgent care if it gets worse before then. I am going to stick with mini walks in the apartment until it settles down. So for this week I will switch my goal to 5 days of mini walks.
Hope everyone is having an amazing day!

Good choice! I find if i remove the "threat" of weighing in, it can head to some very bad food choices! Hope you're feeling better soon x1 -

I ended up with 25 minutes of walking. My stomach hurts more when I move. I am going to the after hours clinic tonight as I don’t think I should wait until Monday.
I signed up for a seminar yesterday with the arthritis society. It is called Arthritis Talks: The vital role of nutrition in Arthritis Management. It is run by a rheumatologist and a dietitian. If you have arthritis check out the Arthritis Society of Canada. I am not sure if you can join from the website but they have wonderful resources especially if you live in Ontario. They offer physiotherapists, occupational therapists, Social workers and more.4 -

Oddly enough, when I weighed myself first thing this morning, the scale indicated a 2 lb weight gain!? I panicked, did a strict fast all day, consuming nothing but water, and weighed myself again when I returned home from working 8 hrs. Now, my weight has dropped by almost 2 lbs!? I'm so confused by this body of mine...😢😓3 -

NSV: I brought a bag of salad greens, a container of shredded chicken and a bottle of my favorite salad dressing to work yesterday. I mixed some together in a bowl for lunch, but left the rest in my mini fridge to have over the next few days. Much more noticeable & easy to remember than buried in a fridge drawer at home.

Sorry to hear. Hugs & prayers that you get some lasting healing soon.2 -

The joys of the scale. Our weight can fluctuate throughout the day depending on what we eat, bathroom breaks, etc.Slimmersixties wrote: »Friday weigh in

While I am happy about breaking into a new decade I know it’s because I haven’t been eating much because of the pain in my lower left stomach. I see my doctor again on Monday and if things haven’t settled down I will have to go on antibiotics.
Happy FriYAY!2
