Hi Brit -
I feel your pain... I quit smoking 2 weeks ago ( i needed to inorder to have plastic surgery). I have gain 3 pounds over my acceptable 5 pound range. I hang out between 148 and 152, yesterday I was 155. I am freaking out..... I need to get it under control - because its starting to mess w/ my head. I'm trying to go back to mostly protein and less carbs....I can only hope that I will stabalize in a week or 2... everyone tells my its just my body adjusting. I hope so.
The holidays are not helping w/ all the "special" foods around either.... good luck to you as well.

Hey Brit:
It is so hard but those are two good motivators you have!! I had a really good eating week last week and then on Saturday it started to go down hill. And I have not gotten of this slippery slope yet..but I will. Tomorrow is a new day! And we will bot h work it out. At least you are still within a normal bmi and don't have too far to go to get back to where you want to be. You know we are here if you need us and also you and I both know what are problem areas are and we just have to correct them and be consistent with the changes. Email me if you need to support or just to vent. ((huggs))
what a great week you had!!!
Keep it up!!
I'm really struggling- I'm up to 138 from 124 and it's really starting to freak me out.
I've got 5 weeks til we leave for Cabo and then another few weeks til my 2 year surgiversary. These 2 things are going to keep me motivated to get some of this weight off. I have just been eating terribly.
Here's to a better week!!!

Amazing what can happen when you stop grazing and binge eating......Let's keep the ball rolling...Ephesians 4:13.
I was not taking extra iron at all. Don't think I was ever told too. Anyway, the last few months have felt rather lathargic and not much energy despite regular vitamin, healthy energy drinks and exercise.
After my blood work last week the Doc office called and put me on a one-month Rx called Repliva that I take for 28 days and then get retested.
BTW - before I found out about the iron I went in for a B-12 shot, which I had not been doing either so I thought the lack of energy was due to that. I broke out horribly - has this happened to anyone else? I researched that is could be a common thing after the B-12. Lots of little "pustales" on my face - yuck!
