Daily Maintenance Weigh In, Wednesday July 10, 2013

steroid inhaler? you probably already know that taking any steroids makes it darn near impossible to lose weight and in fact makes you gain. so don't beat yourself up. D

I knew that, but I didn't think about it until you mentioned it. Well, **** That does explain why I'm still gaining at 600 calories a day.

*hugs* TY for the reminder.

120.  tons of stress and stuff to do this week but it is coming together now. a big memorial art event for a dear friend and wonderful artist who died in Feb.  should be good.   diane

Hey,

I know you know this but it's consistancy.  It's not long since your friend party and for ***** sake you are on steroids.  Having said this i have pretty much stopped weighing but the other day i stepped on the scale and had gained 7 lbs.  so i freaked out. Well i'd been away for a 5 day weekend with booze and food but my weight has not crept up one bit in fact the opposite.  So i was likedamn. So back to basics but then the next day i still hadn't lost anything so i was furious.  Then i really had to laugh at myself.  when have either of us had a golden bullet.  this will be gone but it will take a couple of weeks of consistancy and i realise that the thing that gt me through the first ear of saying no to everything even a latte remember, those days are over.  so i say i'm being good but it's relative good, not first year losing good so i have to remeber with everything, no in loss mode again.  I don't know how i did it the first time nd while i want to gain some i don't want to do it like this, i want to gradually get somewhere that sounds comfortable.  This amount of weight in such a short time is whack.  So yes you can do it but it's a different discipline at this stage of our weight journey.  Hang in there.  I'm gonna start a thread about something else.

As usual please excuse the typos and nonsensical data you find in this thread OH screen is completly blank and will not show me what i am  typing.  So annyoying especially for a control freak.

When you're right, you're right. SOS different day - I've been through this before. Many times. I need to listen to my own straightforward advice--KISS (keep it simple stupid--or slim in this case). 

7 lbs is so damn normal for you after a trip.

I'm just not seeing the drop that I've been expecting. But, I realized after I read diane's post, that I had to go back on the inhaler for a few days over the weekend. So, I really didn't stop it until Sunday-ish.

Okay. I will hike up my big girl panites...again. I will stay on course and see what the **** happens.

Thanks for the reminders. I needed it.
