    I am so sorry I have not been around much since the September group. My life has been crazy.

    I got the flu back in September and ever since my IBS has been out of control. I can usually get rid of the stomach pain and cramping with extra fiber but that did not work. I also fell off the exercise wagon which I think really helped get my body all out of whack. I finally got in to see the GI doctor last week and started a news medicine. I feel better, but new drug causes drowsiness but I will take that over stomach cramps.

    Now that I am feeling a little more human back to the task of loosing weight and getting in shape. I have been back on the treadmill getting in some nice easy walks and slowly building my speed and distance. Hopefully I will get back into some running.

    I have gained a couple pounds this month do to my lack of exercise and bad eating habits that haunt me.

    Hope all is well.

    SW Dec.1: 156 lb.
    Dec.8: 155 lb.
    Dec.15: 154 lb.
    Dec.22: 154 lb.
    Dec.29: 154 lb.

    MFP GW: 140 lb. and reassess from there.

    Still no loss. But I know why, too many goodies around. Thankfully, I have family coming to visit this weekend, and what isn't in the freezer will be eaten. Two skinny nieces, 8 and 10, who just got negatives on their most recent food allergy tests, so they will be wanting to make up for lost time. Haha.
