Anyone Losing Weight?

[judy]

8 pounds is great Gayle!

I seem to be stuck at about 130 to 131 at this moment. I'm still on the diet, and haven't gone onto the transition phase yet. I am eating too much peanut butter, so I am losing very very slowly.

Oh well! It's too hot to be hungry! I am fine with my weight, but don't want to stop yet because I will probably gain a few pounds when I go on maintenance. At my height, a few pounds show.

I do feel very healthy! I haven't had any toxins in my system since mid-April! Let me tell you, I feel the difference! My whole body feels good, and I feel stronger. I have not had sugar since I began. (I think the peanut butter has sugar, sorry!)

I would say it is all good.

I was down another pound this morning!!! By MY scales I've lost about 9 pounds!!! Yesterday I really cut back on drinking sugar-free drinks and I think that it may have made a difference but today I really needed my diet Pepsi!!! Amy has lost 11 pounds and I think that Dae Lynn's lost 8. I really think that you're suppose to lose more quickly than we are......but I know that for myself........my fat likes to stay on my body!!!! LOL That's very problamatic when you're trying to lose weight!!!!!

[judy]

I think that all 3 of you have lost a lot!!!

But, I do know what you mean about fat liking your body. Mine just will not leave!

Janet, I just saw that your doctor's office has not called back yet. How awful!!! Have you had any luck with them today?

[DianaB]

I can't believe that they haven't called you back yet!!! Is their office in town? If so, then I'd go down there and speak to the receptionist. However calling your regular doctor and complaining might do some good too. They should be able to get through and straighten things out for you. Let them know that you're in a lot of pain. Makes me MAD!!!!!!

It makes me mad too. The office is in Lafayette. I called my Drs. office and explained what is going on and they said they will try to get a hold of them today. I do okay most of the time as long as I keep taking the ibuprophen. There are times it hurts really bad and other time...I can handle it. Good thing I have a high pain tolerance.

The problem is Janet, that taking so much ibuprofen can aggravate your GERD. The faster you can get off ibuprofen, the better all around. It is inexcusable that you have had to wait for over a week for the results of a test that could show why you are in acute pain. It just is not right!

[Janet]

It scares me some wondering if they might have found something else. Not sure what else to do. Guess I'll call again Monday. Well if the ibuprofen is bad then I'll try to do without. If it gets too bad, I do have some Loritabs left. I will never go to this Dr again.
