I have this problem too. Puff right up after eating something that has a lot of sodium. Drinking a lot of water helps me keep that down. Congrats on the weight loss and keep it up! :smile:

The thing with antidepressants is that a lot of people just take the pill and don't do much else to help the situation. I'm guilty of it too. Therapy, yoga, mindful breathing/meditation, kayaking, rockwall climbing, hiking. Getting out and experiencing new things could be extremely helpful especially if things like that…

When its -30° outside and people leave the windows open!!

You can download certain step counter apps and sync thto MFP. In the side bar go to "Steps" and then select "add a device" and it gives you the option to download pedometer apps and sync them up.

Good luck :smile:

I would suggest a cheat meal and not a cheat day. Plan it in advance and stick to the plan. It will help to diverge you in the face of other cravings. And try to fit the meal into your daily calories. Opt for a homemade burger with a hearty salad without fries and a pop.

Cleared for light weights and low intensity cardio. Thank you! :smiley:

Hey Jen, I just wanted to give you some insight on a few things as a paramedic and new father. My wife and I recently had a child and she had the same issue with her BP during pregnancy. She was always around 110sys. and during pregnancy she was usually 120sys. A slight increase in BP durIng pregnancy is normal due to the…
