Back On Track Together
Recent Posts
Dr. Sharma is an expert in obesity and was OH's key note speaker at a conference a couple of years ago. I like reading his posts and have learned a lot.
He wrote a blog about food addiction and thought it was an interesting post so sharing here as an FYI.

So this morning I called my doctor's office to make an appt to go and have my monthly B12 shot about a hour ago.
The new doctor that took over my previous doctor called me about 20 minutes later and went over the lab work. Meaning that he is seening that I don't need the B12 shot. My levels are fine.
He asked me how I felt. I told him that I was feeling tired and very dizzy. He then told me that it was because I have low levels of Hemoglobin. He will see me today at 2pm for blood work.
He asked when was the last time I went in for iron transfusions and it was about this time last year. So he is sending me there and for blood transfusion.
Im sooooo nervous! All along I thought my Iron levels were good, Not bad but GOOD.
Has anyone been through this?

So I joined this group the other day and have been tracking my food. Last April I had a shoulder injury and completely fell off the excercise wagon and gained some weight. Now my blood pressure is up. Yesterday, I went to the ER because I was having chest pain. Everything checked out fine, but scared the crap out of me. I'm vowing to start my exercise program again next week and stay on track forever I hope. I just wanted to share and ask if anyone else's blood pressure went up with re-gain. Thanks

finally recovered from weekend conference and getting BOT !!
walked almost 20 miles in the three days I was gone ! Did well on food plan two of three days.....the last day I totally blew it !!
Todays plan.....water started✅ Morning Vits taken ✅ walking .......😩. Am subbing today and can't get up and go as much as I normally do......
breakfast.....coffee/protein
lunch...........turkey sandwich/veggies
snack...........an orange or apple
dinner..........chicken/asparagus/cauliflower
evening snack.....? Probably nothing
I hope everyone has a wonderful and healthy eating day !!!
beating myself up and hating myself for slip ups are my biggest problem too. When I have a slip up it's terrible because I instantly want to give up and go back to my old habits... Which of course is so easy to do.
I know I was told to stay under 1000 calories a day. And i HAVE to keep reminding myself that its not gonna fall off like it did in the beginning.So I just keep doing what im doing and pray for the best. I am forcing myself to eat breakfast, then a healthy lunch and dinner and I do slip up and eat a few bites of stuff like cake or whatever but that just means I gotta move more! I am really trying to focus on NOT hating myself for slip ups. thats the worst for me. Its super hard to stay on track but WE GOT THIS GIRL!!!
