Short and Sweet Weekend Recap
Good Monday morrow to you all. I hopeth thee hath much tomfoolery to reminisce upon from thine weekend. (Damn that would be exhausting to talk like that all of the time.) We've had biblical rain all week and weekend so road tripping would've been out of the question. No one wants to drive on slick roads for hours so we were stuck at home. I am pretty sure unless it's for pizza, we're done eating out for a while. I got so ticked trying to order from a new place and all of the hoops they wanted you to jump through that I said screw it and the Mr was ticked too and said they were shysters. ($42 for what equates to Chinese takeout "bowl". Nope.) Then he mentioned a BBQ place and I was resistant because BBQ always makes me sick, without question. I relented because we'd spent 20 minutes trying to find a place by that time and were both getting irritated. Not like we spent less than we would have if we'd gone to th...
I'm sorry. Hugs to you today. It sucks to work hard and do all the right things and have a medication hold you back, or an injury take a fair number of your favorite workout methods off the table.
ReplyDeleteBe careful with that thumb, though. My husband had a similar sprain and using the splint was what let it heal.
I know you'll keep working your plan, no matter what, so I hope you enjoy the weekend and yourselves!! You're doing all the right things, and can only control what you can control - and you've got that part covered in spades!!
I had to laugh at your, "If only I could get my sweet tooth pulled"! Me too! My weight loss journey would be smooth sailing if I could lick that one.
ReplyDeleteI just started following your blog, and haven't read earlier posts, so I don't know if there is a reason that you must be on birth control pills. For what it's worth, my husband and I have used the Billings method of fertility awareness for 34 yrs., and have had two planned pregnancies. It's easy to use and has no side effects.
My heart does go out to you in your present circumstances. Plateaus are nasty, and to have hormone problems and a sore thumb at the same time..... arghhhhh!
Don't give up. I'm amazed at what you've done so far, and know you'll keep losing as you persevere.
Sounds like things should turn around once you get off the BC pills. Although if you change high cal days at the same time you may not know for sure what did the trick.
ReplyDelete*sigh* Once again I typed out my comment and in brought me to the blog sign up thing. I clicked that I already caved and filled it out, and it brought me back there twice, then gave me the dreaded Error 404. Not sure if this will go through or not.
ReplyDelete*hugs* You know how these things go. You'll be ready to kill or die with frustration because you're doing all the right stuff and that scale is stubborn and stuck, and then --BAM-- you'll get a four pound loss in one week. You are the queen of consistency. Just keep doing what you do best and the scale WILL catch up.
*thumbkiss* Heal, little dude, heal and QUICKLY!
I'm sorry these pills are giving you fits. I'm on my new one as well and I have zero clue how I'll do once I'm "regular". Taking pills and bleeding every day kind of seems counterproductive, eh? Everything I've read says bc pills are so low-dose now that weight gain isn't nearly as common...and yet.... It's just frustrating to think this tiny pill can alter things so much. Keep working your plan and taking care of that thumb in the meantime. Women and our bodies...pfft.
