    Default So I guess its time to gett back on the weight loss wagon.

    I have been feeling just comfortable in my body for the last few weeks and i had thought for a few days i was done and 189- 195 would be my comfortable place but my body seems to have other ideas. I had a baby 4.5 months ago breast fed till it just stopped last month and now its time to get back to eating 2 bites per meal and drinking milk. I dont believe i have stretched my sleeve but with having to force myself to eat during my pregnancy and after it has put my mind into a place i dont want it to be. I start getting hungry when i know i shouldnt be so time to curb the head hunger and drop this last 40 lbs. I honestly wouldnt be thinking anything about it if it wasnt for the fact that my hips aren't working correctly and my doctors have now ordered me a wheel chair. Now i dont want you guys to think I am in any way letting that get to me. honestly it has helped a lot because since Christmas eve (when i got shots in my hips) I have been falling my legs go week and just stop holding me up. I think i may have nerve damage from the shots. They were just b-12 and magnesium but as soon as the mag was given my leg went numb and i almost fell on the nurse. Since then i have fallen 30 times so a chair is the best thing i can have. I can at least get around and take better care of me and my family this way. But the fact that i am not able to walk much means i have to amplify the weight loss efforts so we are getting a Y member ship this week and since my mom needs to go there for therapy i know i will get there and be able to work in the pool. I am also starting back on high protein low carbs and sugar even thought i dont believe carbs and sugar are bad for you i think i have gotten too lax with the amounts i eat. especially when i started drinking my hubbys sweet tea again. I hope everyone else is doing well and loosing I can't wait to see 145 instead of 189. If i can get there which i believe i can I will have lost a total of 290 lbs, I know because i believe that, I got this

    So sorry to hear of the troubles you are having. Hopefully this will be a momentary thing and the problems will cease, or that you will at least find a way to productively live with the problems. After my kidney cancer surgery, I ended up with a blister on the opposite side that basically covered my hip. I know for a fact that nerve damage took place during this time. I still cannot feel anything on it. However, I eventually got used to it.
    Will keep you in my thoughts that you feel better soon.
    Hugs,
    Kathy

    Oh, hugs to you my dear!! I have 9 more weeks until my little one is here and I live in fear that I have stretched my stomach. I still feel restriction, but I haven't said no to carbs and bread like I would normally. I hope that I can give that up when Baby G is here. I look to you when I feel that I am going to fail after delivery so you have no other option other than to succeed!! No pressure!
