Daily Maintenance Weigh In - Tuesday 8/14
Good morning. Raining here. Not a thunderstorm, but actual good old fashioned normal rain. It has probably been 6 months since we've had rain not associated afternoon thunderstorms.
I've had a mild earache ever since I was sick last week, and I'm starting to wonder if I've developed an ear infection. Had one once before and the earache was intense. Anyone ever had one with just a mild but ongoing earache?
Today's weight 143.6
How goes with you?

Keep an eye on that ear. A couple of years ago, I had a small ear ache, and woke up one morning after about a week to an ear that was completely closed up. It had swollen shut and pushed all of the wax out (disgusting). It was very painful until my body replaced the wax on the ear canal.
Hope you feel better soon.

Good morning.
Rain sounds lovely; it's supposed to be 109 here today. It's been over 100 every day for a week.
I get mild earaches sometimes with other allergy symptoms. I take pseudafed, which reduces the pressure in my ears and sinuses.
Today 127.6
Yesterday 129.2
I didn't eat much yesterday...I'll push fluids today. It's been so hot here, I don't feel like eating. Good about the weight loss. I still have a couple more lbs to lose.

As far as your ear goes,take an antiinflammatory to keep any in ear swelling down. (I have 2 four year olds..someone always has an ear infection in my house)
I AM AT MY ALL TIME LOW SINCE SURGERY 142.2! I can't believe it! Also my husband green lighted me for plastics, so I am trying to organize that for NEXT WEEK! Love being in a place where you can pull that off, and on the cheap!

What are you going to have done? Your pics look great, but I know pics can be deceiving at times. Yesterday, I made an appointment for a second consult with a PS that I met with, one year ago. I wasn't ready then, but I am getting closer and closer everyday. I'm just tired of not seeing some of the results from all my workouts. I know I have some ab muscles, but I can't see them.
Good for you on the weight loss.

Gail,
I too have been working out in a very dedicated way for the last 8 months, but after having 4 kids and a twin pregnancy, there is only so much sucking in I can do :). I hesitate to even talk about it here, because I know in my case, I don't "need" it, but I want it. I am also going to fluff up the boobs a bit, they are sad little roll up puppies 36D...long!
Good luck with your consult!

149, going in the right direction.. wish me luck meeting the person that may be paid to torture me, err.. make me work my muscles... today.
Yes! That stupid round of ick I had back in June-July.. I had three weeks of recurring ear & sore throat aches (one sided).. it finally went away but it took a lot of time. Ibuprofen helped, but it kept coming back every few days. Finally was gone for good by the middle of July!
