Battered But Still Here….. Hope everyone is working hard. I have had a few set-backs

in my life plan but the last couple of days I have gotten outdoors for a tentative spin around the block. I was also able to finally climb on the scale….AHHHH. I have gained back 4 pounds in the last two months. Taking cortisone and wearing neck brace. Had to stop exercising and was hardly able to move for wayyyy too long. Got out my notebook and began my food journal AGAIN!! That whole 4 pounds is on my midriff. UGH. Take care and hope to see you again soon. Big hugs. I need hugs. Love, Marge

    Big big hugs to you Marge

    Its great to hear from you.

    It must have been nice to be able to get outside for awhile?

    Hey 4 pounds is nothing if thats all you gained with being inactive for 2 months.

    Good for you for starting up the food journaling again. That always helps me.

    Continue to get better
    We need you around here
    More hugs
    Lori

    AWWWWW….Hugs to you Bebe. You wrote on my blog that you are also a food hoarder. Y2k is when I really started…but I had a touch of it earlier too when we had 2 teenagers and 8 foster children. My husband also worked in construction which can be seasonal….but like you….my kids are grown..and I have no real reason to hoard food now….I dread any future power outages myself……I’m working now to use what is on hand and I’m staying out of the stores..Thank you for your advise…i’m taking it to heart and I’m hoping that you feel better soon. Have a wonderful weekend.

    So sorry you have had troubles. Its very good to see you back here tho. I bet that 4 pounds comes off quicker than you think. Enjoy your spins out in the Fall air. Good to see you :)

    Hi Madge,
    So glad to see someone I know still here. I have been gone too, but am back. Bigger than before thanks to quitting smoking, but now I am gearing up to tackle the weight problem again. It feels great to no longer be dependant on cigs, but now I have to feel whole again by losing all this dang weight.

    So glad you are here and lets git-r-done together.

    Major hugs,
    Kriss
