I finally called Rinette

After fighting tooth and nail with my 2 pounds for over a week now, I finally called Natalie. She gave me the number and said to call Rinette. I called Rinette and explained the problem to her. By now I was almost in tears with fustration. She said to start the slimfast tonight at suppertime and to come tomorrow and get weighed on their scales. She said that I will have to go back to Moncton in a week or so too so I might as well come tomorrow and see what the scales say. Maybe it will make a difference. I'm about at my wits end. I have not cheated nor have I gone over the 1200 cal a day since the last time I was up there. We will see what tomorrow brings. Wish me luck. Can't believe I am this close and may be postponed for a weight issue.

As you know, I have been struggling with the yo-yo gremlin, so my questions are not intended to "blame the victim." Are you getting enough water in? Could 1200 calories be too much for the amount of activity you do?  Are you exercising as much as you can? I am not sure how mobile you are, but  do what you can. anything that gets your circulation going helps. Careful not to over do it though. I went walking today and put my back out. 
Your body may be hanging on to your weight by replacing the fat with water. I am hoping/ praying that your numbers will take a sudden drop any day now.

I too suffer from a really bad back so when you said you put your back out, I knew immediately what you meant.
I called Rinette and she said to just do slimfast for today and in the am and come a get weighed on her scale, When I was talking to her on Jan 12, she told me to eat 1200 cal a day and when I do the 2 week slimfast to do 1000 cal a day. I have followed it to a t. I also have dropped all carbs except what is in veggies.

I don't walk a lot because I am unable to walk very well but Rinette knew that. I am drinking more water even though I hate the stuff. Oh well, too late to worry about it now. Weigh in is 19 hours away.   Wish me luck or a really big poop

He he he  - have you read my story about not being able to?  it was hell pure hell so - honey - I am wishing you both good luck and the other and thanks for the giggle, I needed that.  

Rinette will help you work it out I am sure.  I will keep good thoughts for you and will be thinking of you tomorrow.
