Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Okay I thought I was going to be down a half pound this morning (from yesterday) but no such luck *sigh* so this means that I am still weighing in at 21-9/303 lb/137.4 kg which is 4 pounds/2 kg up on last week! The only thing I can blame it on is the pain killers again, as this has fudged up my system AGAIN! On top of this I went to see the vet, sorry nurse this morning and not only is OHs blood pressure up but mine is as well (and I have NEVER had a problem with my blood pressure! I can only assume that it is partially panic about the weight, partially panic about OH and his job (they want him to be on call 24/7 with no more money even if he gets called in at 3 in the morning!) and partially because we were out for a Chinese meal on Saturday and this means that we had more salt than we would normally have. So back to tracking EVERYTHING again so that when OH and I go back in 2 or 3 weeks to get the blood pressure checked again things have improved both weight wise and blood pressure wise!

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Hi there hon - Sorry to hear you've hit another glitch in the weightloss battle - I found I had gained five pounds (okay, not a lot, but who needs extra weight and I don't want to add more) and for some reason it WON'T GO! I go up a pound, down two pounds, up a pound, down a half, up two Now I know this is really just normal fluctuation - extra salt or some such thing from eating outside the home will mean retaining two or three pounds of weight in any one day, of course - but why oh why do we only see this when it goes UP and not see it go DOWN! Soooooo frustrating. So okay - you get on with your new resolution to buckle down (or is it up?) and lose some and I'll do it with you, okay? Check in next Monday and ASK me in case I forget. I had a look at your membership and everything looks normal - I don't understand why you can't post by email. You aren't moderated or anything like that (*shaking head emphatically*), so I don't think the problem originates with the group. Anyway, I wish you luck with this and hope it sorts itself out - and in any case, as you see, your webmail post DID get through Love and hugs, Pat ---- My blog: http://beanvegan.blogspot.com " Atrocities are not less atrocities when they occur in laboratories and are called medical research.

Soooooo frustrating. Indeed!

Okay - an on-line buddy for weight loss - woot!!!!!!!!!!! > > I had a look at your membership and everything looks normal - I don't understand why you can't post by email.

Anyway, I wish you luck with this and hope it sorts itself out - and in any case, as you see, your webmail post DID get through I think it is a change to the group - I know on a group I run I had to set it to accept attachments otherwise even I couldn't post from the email! > > Love and hugs, Pat > Thanks Pat!!

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 > Okay - an on-line buddy for weight loss - woot!!!!!!!!!!! Yay!! It'll help me too About the problem emailing this group - nothing has been changed lately - but I'll have a peek just in case. I don't think we have ever had attachments here - although perhaps at the very very beginning of the group, I can't recall now - because of the possibility of viruses plus people's mailboxes getting full too quickly. Shall consult with Cindi and Piers and see if they know what the trouble is. Hang in there!
