Happy Birthday, Dagmar, and congrats on seeing 149!
I'm sick and have no appetite. Symptoms are upper abdominal pain and fatigue. No fever, nothing else, except I caught a small cold from DH which doesn't help. I hope I can get an appointment tomorrow with the doctor. Down another 2 pounds to 131.5. Good, not good. I'm trying to stay hydrated.

Bill, is spring on the horizon in your neck of the woods?

I hope you feel better soon Alice. :wave:

Can't declare that Spring has arrived in the Boston area, Alice, but I did venture out yesterday without a coat. Felt nearly naked, LOL. Some of the snow is melting from the piles that keep cars from parking right against the curb.

Happy Birthday, Dagmar, a happy scale reading is such a neat Birthday present. Flan sounds just right after dental work.

Back up to 151 lbs. DH has been cooking this week. First time in 30 years. He plates my food, though I have asked him not to do so. I have been staying out of the kitchen and have been eating all of the carbs he is cooking. I have to start leaving food on my plate and changing up the bowl for the fruit we eat later in the evening. Weighing and measuring food is the way I lose weight. I'll explain it to him and I hope he doesn't then say "well if you don't want my cooking I'll stop doing it".

Dagmar :sumo:

I am cooking this week and I'm down below 150 - 149.6 lbs. :goodscale:.

I have to get quite insistent next week about plating my own food. And, though i appreciate DH's making fresh bread I'll have to limit myself to one piece with my dinner.

I find it really hard to diet in winter. So much snow still. There will be cherry blossoms in Toronto in a couple of months. Nothing like that here. :shrug:

Dagmar :yay:

Nice to see a 14x number, Dagmar! Slow and steady!

Once I rehydrated from my gallbladder/pancreas episode, I'm back up to 131.5. But that's lower than I was. I'm having something called a HIDA scan of my gallbladder as soon as they can schedule it. Then we'll see if removal is indicated. It's keeping me on track with my diet at least.

Wish I could send some of our record heatwave to you and Bill. Your snow would be gone in no time!

Hope all goes well with the scan Alice and that there is a solution to whatever is wrong.

Dagmar :(
