Survival Mode Put Us Back to Zero

A lot of you came here many moons ago when I left Sparkpeople.  I loved the community of that place and the support I got there.  It was at the height of us being on our game.  That motivation you have in the beginning when you're consistently rewarded with weight loss, smaller clothes, compliments to keep your motivation high and you somehow begin to step out of being invisible to the public to people smiling at you, opening doors or striking up conversation.  You start to feel human.  You don't have to worry about going to restaurants or 'fitting' somewhere.  You can go to a wedding and see those God awful thin folding chairs and while you still don't like them, you're not concerned.  Many of your worries that fit people never had to think of, have faded away.  We started for the long haul in our 30's and that's when we had the most success, losing 226 and 190 lbs respectively.  When we went on vacation, as long as we came back and got rig...

New plan: Weigh in #1

Welp, I weighed in this morning.

I lost the 3 antihistamine pounds I put on last week and 2 more to boot for a total of 5.

I will take that.

The Mr is down 4!  WOOT!

I also called the pharmacist after some scary stuff started happening with my eyes and asked if I needed to taper off the nasal steroid (basically Flonase) and she said no I could just stop using it.  I'll go into it more Monday but let's just say the stuff I was reading was terrifying.  I'm grateful it reduced the inflammation but the long term effects are nowhere near worth it.

I hope y'all have a great weekend!
