Daily Maintenance Weigh In - Tuesday 8/14

I have the occassional ear stuffiness and it's not been an infection most often. But you never know! Can't hurt to get it checked.

153.4 today. Feeling good, other than not being able to work out for a few days. Had a stubborn wart removed from the heel of my foot yesterday and it's ouchie!!

When I get ear infections the insides of my ears itch, strange but that's how my body lets me know. I don't get them often but they do happen. I agree with going to the doc to get it checked, I let one go for too long once and ended up with conjunctivitis in my eye on top of the ear infection. That eye infection was AWFUL, and I wouldn't wi**** on anyone.

130 on the dot today. Right in the middle of my range, though I do prefer the lower end... But I'm not complaining!

Made some ricotta bake last night so all I have to do is throw it in the oven for lunch today (and the leftovers will last all week for lunches).

Hope everyone else is doing well!

172.7

Down a pound. Heading in the right direction.

So I have been down the past week because the scale really haven't been reflecting my efforts to stay on track.  I definitely feel the health benefits of eating the right for me.  I have less bloating and more energy, and the cravings have stopped.  All the said I got on the scale today and had a 5.6 pound lose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

177.4 today down from 183.0 yesterday.

For those of you in maintance longer, if I stick to program should I see this number stay or should I be prepared to see it go up again before it comes back down.  During weight loss at first it was steady downward but then as I got closer to goal it bobbed a lot. 

Thanks for the support.  Just being back here has given me the drive to get back to the real me.

I found that the closer to goal I got, the more the scale would wobble on me.  It was important to keep a graph going so that I could see the downward trend and not get discouraged.  Congratulations on the five pounds! 

Sorry you are hurting, Mom. I have only had a couple ear infections but they are awful. Pain meds and hot compresses worked for me until I could get to a doctor.

138.0 this morning, middle of my range but I'd rather be .5 lower. Have to cut back on the sodium.

121.2
Slightly up but it's ok.

107 this morning.  I am still about two pounds heavier than I would like, but the scale is down .4 pounds so at least things are going in the right direction.

122. i am off to old lady osteopeosis exercise class. it was enough work to make my legs sore last week. gotta be some good there.

hey mom, look after that ear. i had an ear issue once that went on for a month and i finally went to doctor and it was an infection and i needed antibiotics. took awhile to clear up. don't wait too long to get care.   Diane

Could actually be your sinuses. Earaches/Sinus infections are not something to mess with. Go to the doctor if it's not better in a day or so.

129.8 today.  Big workout last night. Getting back into my regular groove.
