What I'm Reading This Week #19
Hello hello, mah peeps! I hope you had a good week. A quick birthday shout out to my FIL. I'm sure he's whipping up quite a party up there and DJing like he used to back in the day. It's very hard to not think that today was supposed to be our first full day walking Ogunquit Beach in Maine after finding a place we could finally afford there. I'm also failing at knowing we should still be gone for another week. and we're especially bitter given what a complete disaster our attempt at a smaller getaway was when we stayed at the worst place we've ever rented a few days ago. When I say there was nowhere comfortable to sit/sleep, I mean NOWHERE. The Mr is crippled and we spent our anniversary hoping he didn't end up on a telehealth call for strong pain meds. I had borderline migraines daily and by the end was also limping with my SI joint joining the hobble party. It rained torrentially every single day which we're fine with n...
Sounds just like some of my post :)
ReplyDeleteOh Sweetie--that just sufcks. But at least it wasn't a gain. You're doing so great, I relaly don't understand why the pounds don't fall off more quickly. I think sometimes our bodies hae a set weight and they want to stay there. Maybe your's is where you are now? I got down to 139 right before Halloween, then during the holidays and winter I put on about 10 pounds. At this point I would be happy at 145. My body likes me right about 150 evidently, and I work very hard just to stay there. I had surgery 10 days ago, didn't eat anything for two days basically, then ate really lightly the rest of the week, and lost like maybe 2 pounds, which are now back. This morning I weighed 149.4. So back to that "happy" 150.

ReplyDeleteThank goodness it isn't a gain, but I know how frustrating that is. All that hard work, and nothing to "show" for it. *hugs*
It might not show on the scale but you are fighting cancer, stroke, high blood pressure, heart disease, etc. You are working to stay healthy and that is awesome!

ReplyDeleteI agree with K. The scale is not showing the changes in your underlying health and it doesn't show that you are doing what is right for your metabolism so that it isn't jacked up for the rest of your life. It doesn't make the current situation any less frustrating, but it'll change, it'll move down again. Hugs and this is going to be an AWESOME week no matter what the grumpy scale says.
