Today is WI#2 and Im not feeling the excitement this week. My "moody" mind is saying that I wont lose. Man these mood swings suck lol. This is too much but regardless of what the mood is right now I will continue to be OP 100%. Im going to fight the mood and the weight. Have a good day.
needlessly. I'm just a mess this morning, almost on the verge of panic.
Good luck on the diagnosis, Dakin. At least you caught it early. Maybe there is something that can be adjusted in meds or diet that doesn't require completely giving up IP.

Congratulations, Samba! I know the feeling....

Good morning everybody! Up and at 'em!!!
Friends are coming over this afternoon to help carry shelves up from the basement for my garage sale next weekend...stuff that is too hard for one person to carry up the stairs. It rained on and off yesterday so I painted, stopped, helped a friend with a stalled car, painted, stopped...one of those days...
Just realized I have a doctor's apptmt this morning so I gotta run...

Good luck Prettyone and hopefully the mood swings will pass...soon.
I woke up with blood in my urine this morning. I'm pretty scared. (I'm notoriously a big wimp with anything medical.) Will call my doctor at 9:00 and hope to be seen today. A quick google search shows a higher incidence of UTI or kidney infections with high protein diets. Believe it or not, my biggest concern is that the doctor may tell me to stop IP cold turkey! I really, really don't want to stop in a manner that will make me gain back everything I've lost! I'm hoping that, if anything, they let me phase off properly. I know, I know.... I'm probably worrying about the wrong thing..... or even worrying needlessly. I'm just a mess this morning, almost on the verge of panic.
Wishing everyone a great day.
I am glad you called the doc right away. try not to worry until there is something to worry about. Good luck.

YAY Samba.. It is so wonderful when we hit those personal goals. Good for you.

Used my one and only Ketostix today and that puppy was bright purple! Hip hip hooray!!! Although I feel almost sick. Sweaty and hot all over, keep getting thirsty (drank almost 20 oz of water since waking up 15 min ago, and still thirsty). I ate a restricted yesterday after dinner to see if that'd help; nope. Any thoughts? I had all my vitamins and salt/oil yesterday, but was exhausted by 9pm, same as the night before. I almost feel like I have the flu it's so bizarre, was wondering if walking is what did it, but that seems awfully silly doesn't it?
Just had weigh in #5. Had to use a different scale. Down 5.2#'s and another scale victory is it was the normal scale not the big boy/girl scale. I've been over weight limit on it for a long time. My scale in my BDay suit at home read 410 so that's good to know.

I can't wait to see the 170's again, let alone the 150's! Seems like a far-off dream, but if you can do it, so can I! Thanks for fueling my motivation!

Dakin- Hope everything works out fine for you. I have never had this happen but best wishes for a speedy diagnosis and recovery! Off to another busy day! One positive note I can say about my job is that every day is something new- never redundant and never boring. Have a great day all!
Congratulations on those WIs - it's going to be a good day!
Dakin- don't panic , it's probably a UTI & if not your seeing the doc right away so your on it. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!
I have WI this afternoon - not feeling like I lost though . Also keeping my fingers crossed! How will I teach my students with all my fingers crossed?
LOL Have a wonderful day IPeeps!
Good Morning Everyone! It is another beautiful day.
Today, my goal is to just focus, stay on plan, look toward my goal and not get mired down in the muck of where I am right now (weight wise). I will overcome this!
Good Morning! Up and at em early today! I hope everyone has a great OP day! Day 6 for me. Finally started chewing some sugar free gum in the afternoon to curb some cravings to munch! Hopefully it doesn't negatively affet me! Good luck to everyone who weighs in today!
