Topic: RE: Are we slipping?
Now don't start going and being nice to me it makes it real hard to feel self rightous!!!
I should have not taken it so personal...I was snappy and I am sorry about that!
I think we should just smile and chalk it up to writing our thoughts and feelings and the other person not being able to hear our tone or read our face.... and I am soooooo jealous of your size 7 1/2 foot my size 11 wide one would never fit even in my BIG mouth!!..lol
hugs

Topic: Anyone's spouse having a hard time with your weight loss?
Is anyone else feeling like your spouse is not completely supportive? I know I have made lots of changes both physically and emotionally the last few months, but I am still the same person. Maybe I am missing something. I get compliments from everyone I see, but not much from my husband. Anyone else having this happen to them? Any suggestions? He says it is an adjustment for him too. I am not sure what to do. We are going to couseling, but I am worried.
Topic: RE: Spring Break is over...Time to get back on track!!
I had been on a major stall and started recording my food intake and approx calories....an eye opener for sure! This last week I have done well (except for Easter Day...ooops) and managed to lose 3 lbs. I hope it works again this week. My weight loss is somewhat behind what I had hoped it would be at 7 months out. All I can do now is try harder and I will.

Not much but at least it is less. I too think that over the course of the last month, I'm not where I thought I would be. I am going to try the pouch test too. Thanks all who have posted and shared their stories of the week - both the good and the bad. It helps to know you aren't the only one having issues at times and it is nice to have some problem solving done for you already! Have a great week everyone!

I am not down any this week. I didn't gain but didn't lose either. I am ok with that. I have really been working out so I think I am gaining muscle too.

Last Week's Weight: 212 lbs.
Today: 216 lbs.
This Week's Loss: + 4 lbs.
Yes, I'm 4 pounds UP from last week. I'm not happy about this, but I understand what happened. I weigh myself daily so I knew my official Monday weigh in for this week was going to be rather icky, LOL. I was sick (throwing up & diarrhea) from the 11th to the 18th. So I was dehydrated somewhat and hadn't eaten well the week before weighing myself on the 17th. Now add to that, I had salty baked ham yesterday for Easter, water retention city, here...I'm up 4 pounds from last week. Yuck. I hope it comes off quickly and takes 2 more pals with it so I can hit 100 pounds lost.
Seeing the scale go in the wrong way is quite disconcerting! I can't wait til next week's weigh in!!!
I hope everyone is doing well!!
Have a good week,
~Brandi
