Help! I've been on MFP for about a month now but I've spent the last 3 weeks fighting bronchitis that doesn't want to go away. I was doing awesome with my calories the first 3 weeks even though I couldn't really exercise for 2 of those weeks. BUT over the last week I find myself wandering back to my old mindset because I still can't really exercise without starting a coughing fit...therefore I'm getting lazy again. I'm looking to make more MFP friends that will help cheer me on and I'll do the same. :)

    Hi,
    I'm sending you a "friend me, please" request. I'm in need of some positive reinforcement too.
    In the meantime here is some cheerleading:
    You can do it!

    Im in! :-)
  • Hello! OMG I totally know how bronchitis can affect weight loss! I was on a fantastic roll at the start of this year (had lost 10kg in 3 months!) then got bronchitis that i had for FIVE MONTHS! I totally fell off the wagon and gained 3kg in that time! Gah! I have now been back on the wagon for 30 days (i got my 30 day log in message today!) and while i have been far from perfect during this time, the weight is coming back off again! Woo!

    I would love to have a weightloss cheerleader, and for the bargain price of being one for you, i think its an awesome deal! Hehe! :)

    I've been down the same road. I ended up gaining back 50 of the 80 pounds I had lost. Don't go down that road. LOL. It's so hard to get back on track, but you can do it!!!
