Hi Liz,

darn that is annoying1 Is it TOM, or a new food? I expect it'll be gone by weigh day.

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

So, I was so diappointed that I showed no loss after all the work I put in, plus having that retched scale put me up 5 pounds from my old one. But I'm so over it today because I did my measurements, and I lost an inch off my waist! I have a 32 inch waist!!!

I need to say it again, I have a 32 inch waist!!!!!!!!!!!

Today is a beautiful day!

Please share and tell me how it feels.

I'm so bummed this morning... I got on the scale and I gained 5lbs out of the blue... I think I didn't drink enough water yesterday... really upset actually! I didn't cheat! I'm going to flush myself with water today!!!!
Okay gotta go!

Our weight does fluctuate a lot due to hormones. I know that doesn't help to hear that so would you like for me to come and threaten your scale for you? It seemed to work for mine. I went down the next day (after the threat) by 1.6 pounds. Try it!!

Hugs to you Liz, that is a bummer! Get your water in like you said and hopefully you can flush out overnight. Where is that whoosh fairy? We are having so much rain today and I have been in and out of it so much I can't think of drinking water today.

Hello all!

Sorry I've been missing in action for a few days, but I've been in CTO (Communications Training Officer) class since Monday, and I've worked overtime from 7p-11p every night since Sunday. I pretty much had enough time to get home, grab a bite to eat, and get a short nap in. I haven't exercised since last Wednesday or Friday...I can't even remember which one! As a result, I'm up 6lbs I haven't cheated, I've been totally on plan....I am having some major hormone issues right now. What was supposed to stop a couple of months after I had the baby, has now been going on for almost 4 Talk about TOM year-round! I have an appointment on the 6th, and I'm hoping maybe they can give me something to make it stop. It's extremely frustrating and discouraging, because I know it's just hormones and the fact that my body is retaining a good amount of water. I'm not thrilled about the possibility of taking BC pills, but if they stop the bleeding, I'm all for it.

Hi Emma! Hi Everyone! I'm back from holidays and just wanted to say thank you Emma for putting together the Christmas Challenge! I'm happy to report that I didn't gain any weight while away but lost a pound! So I'm really happy. I'll get back into the swing of things once I get organized again and hope to join another challenge!
Keep up the good work everyone on your weight losses! You're all doing great!!!

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

Iyshia, hugs to you, that must be hard having TOM hanging around that long. Hope the pills help you out. You been keeping busy, hope you been having time for that beautiful baby. What is her name? I think I seen it before but can't think right off. Have a good night!

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

Tee, welcome back, you are doing great having lost a pound over holidays. Keep up your good work!

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

Sorry I wasn't here to check in Monday. I've had neck problems and sitting at the computer for very long seems to make it worse. Anyway, I'm better--way behind on posts, but I'll catch up eventually.

I was up half a pound, but not sweating it because I retain water when I take aleve. Hopefully next Monday will be better.

Good work to everyone! Excess water and hormones will settle down in time, I hope Liz and Iyshia.

I'll be back more soon--just don't want to push things right now.

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

Hi guys, Thanks for all your kind words you guys (Alexa, Kate, Purplecat, Atkid, Emma, looseshoes...) well turns out I'm full of __it... ha ha!!!! well, I was... After I went for my MRI today I went to the doctor and after having had a ton of water and going to the bathroom a few times... I weighed 175 at 1pm in my clothes AT THE DR!!! so I lost 3 lbs from this morning already!!!! LESSON LEARNED! Water, water, water! Whew! I have an ear infection as well... I've been on antibiotics for a week for my sinus's but my ear still hurts... so I have to do another round! I'm also having yeast issues. and tummy's a bit unsettled also: taking probiotics... which is much good. If I weren't on this diet though I think it wounld be much worse. Anyways you guys are the best! Iyshiaf... I'm sorry you're having a rough time with your homones! It's aweful to bleed for so long!
Welcome to teezu!
Hey looseshoes, my neck was hurting too... flexeril fixed me right up! I just have to choose between being functional vs in pain.... which one today???? I only take them at night too... but they still last through the next day! Hope you come up with a solution for yours.... it's no fun I know! hugs!
