  • Quote: Antonia.. I am so sorry you hurt your back.. Oh ouch! I have a feeling your body is holding water to repair itself.... I am so sorry. Are you able to move around ok?
    No, I couldn't really move around at all yesterday. I had to have my dad come and take me to the chiropractor because I couldn't drive myself. The adjustment helped some, but it is a muscle thing, so it is just going to take time. I can walk around a little, but not much. Pretty much spending my days on the couch. Painkillers and hot tea are helping a bunch. Sorry to be such a downer, but being it pain sucks. Of all the things to pass down through your family, why did our family have to have back problems?
  • to you Antonia... My family is afflicted too with back problems (My dad sprained his back in our pool when I was a kid and My mom has spasms = valium whenever she gets stressed).. My sister had troubles too. Me I am lucky... I got the good hair (everyone else is balding or did have very thin hair) and a good back... Just relax as I know you know that the pain will lossen its hold on you and fade.. It will!

  • Antonia I'm so sorry about your back, back pain is so debilitating and really takes such a toll not only from pain the lack of ability too be, I feel for you and wish you a speedy recovery.

    Sue looks like you might take this one good job!!!

    I was not bear as bad as I thought I was gonna be, did drink almost a gallon of wine by no funnel cake or chilli cheese fries, I got a hamburger no bun, had a little kettle corn and a handful of cinnamon pecans, I'm sure I will be up in water but started back on the right eating this morning!!! Time to get below the 60's and stay on track!!!

    Not sure what prompted such losses the last couple of days – but I will take it! Lol

    New thread going up!

    Thank you Sue, I’m dying to see the 2’s! It’s been SOOOOOOOOOOOO long! Nice job on the walking too!!! 4 miles! Wow!

    Montes, so sorry to hear about your back!! Glad to hear you are feeling better thought!! I understand all too well about the back problems and how hard that can be to deal with! My dad was paralyzed for many years b/c of his and my husband has injured his pretty severely as well. I struggle with mine time to time, but nothing as bad as theirs.

    Jessie, nice job!! Can be hard to pass up those funnel cakes lol  But you did good to not go crazy  And back on track now! And not bad either, just 1 lb, you’ll drop that in no time!

    Kuselton – great job! Nice losses!
