dreamingblue's Journey

I had a graduation to go to on Friday and everyone was eating pizzas and brownies and orange flavored malts. I just stood there kickin rocks lol. There really wasn't a single thing there that I felt like I could justify eating. The rest of the day I had mad cravings. I ended up making a healthy stuffed burrito and some super sweet watermelon. It helped a lot. But yeah, sometimes I can handle watching cooking shows and being around good food, other days, it proves to be a bit too much and it's best that I back away... slowly. ;)

LOL. I hear what you're saying. It's maddening.

Mmm, a healthy burrito and sweet watermelon sound delicious though. Yum.
 
So I have been in constant pain for about 4 days. It was worse a few days ago, I had to just lay in bed and moan. Horrible.

I finally decided to go to the hospital to see what was going on. And of course, nothing was wrong except for my GERD acting up.

I swear, it makes me think that I'm one step away from death sometimes. I have been to the hospital multiple times cuz of it. Severe chest pain. This time it felt like my kidneys were exploding.

But nothing. Everything looks fine. Blood pressure is fine. Urine test came out fine.

Damn GERD, I hate you.

They prescribed me some medication and put me on a bland diet. Since I have not been feeling well for a while I haven't exercised since Thursday and I have been eating whatever, without even caring.

I weighed at the hospital at 312. Yikes! I hope its just water weight. I'm not too concerned about it. I had to take care of my immediate health issue first. Now I can focus back on my exercise and food.

I'm glad he put me on a bland diet. I'm sure it will help me lose weight.

So that's it for me.
 
hey girl, so sorry to hear you haven't been feeling too well. hope you feel better soon. i'm sure the rest will also do you some good and like you say health comes first. hope you feel better soon, let us know how your getting on xoxo:seeya:
 
Thanks guys...

I'm a big baby. lol. I hate feeling sick or having any sort of problems. Ugh.

Anyway, I'm doing okay with food. Although I'm still nauseated and I can only stomach things like crackers and soup. I'm kinda worried cuz all the sodium I've been eating with that stuff.

I went to Curves today and I actually feel better AFTER exercising. I thought that exercising would irritate my symptoms more, but it seemed to help. Exercise and eating healthy seem to be the answer to everything apparently! What kind of world was I living in before?
 
I'm here :)

I've been coming to the site, just not posting here much. I'm annoyed that the time when I wasn't feeling good I seemed to gain back 3 lbs! I guess it was just the accumulation of memorial day weekend, my period, and the fact that I was sick that did it to me. So I'm at 311.2. Ugh, I'm so annoyed.

But I feel much better. I'm pretty much all better now.

I have been exercising at Curves and at home cuz I really want to drop this weight that I gained back.
 
This morning was the first Saturday that I've ever been to Curves. I am so not a morning person, but they close at 10:30 am on Saturdays. I'm determined to get back down to 309 or passed that. Sigh. My weight was 310.6 this morning.

It's going back down...
 
It will get back down there. You're so determined and you have the motivation. Now it's just simply a matter of your body playing catch up, especially after being sick. Great job at getting up in the morning to work out. That had to have been pretty hard to do since you're not a morning person!

Anyway, great to see you back posting in this area of the forum. I always look forward to reading your thoughts.
 
Nice job going to curves yesterday. I'm so bad at getting to the gym during the weekend. It takes a lot of effort.

I hate that weight fluctuates during the month, i know how we want to steadily lose weight and it doesn't happen but it'll come off.
 
Thanks for stopping by YMCA and PEC :)

Weight this morning was 309.0! Yay, I'm back to where I was, now I can look forward instead of backwards. :D:D
 
Thanks Kori :D


So, I don't have much to post at the moment, not a lot going on. I'm trying to resist different foods that cause me pain. Anything too sugary, I'm staying away from milk, so that means that in the mornings I'm either eating toast or fiberone pancakes or some egg whites.

Went food shopping yesterday and resisted the urge to buy 100 calorie cupcakes, cuz it seems that I can't control myself to eat just one. I have to have like 3. Ugh. So no more of that. I bought strawberries and lots of fruit instead.

I've been exercising pretty well and I think I'm going to continue to go to Curves on Saturdays. I need it and the only thing stopping me is me.

Weighed in at 309 this morning again. I'm glad that I'm keeping that steady and that it's not going up for any reason. I changed my ticker finally to represent that.
 
How are those fiberone pancakes? That actually sounds good! And I hear you about those 100 calorie packs. I won't buy them because I don't trust myself quite yet.

BTW, Congrats on the 309. :)
 
The Fiberone Pancakes are okay. But I always add cinnamon and a bit of splenda to the batter to liven it up a bit. And I either put a little bit of honey on them or sugar-free syrup. After all that they are pretty delicious. lol

Thanks for the support. :)

I did a pretty good workout at Curves today. My calories are in range. I haven't drank enough water though...

I love when there's a lot of people at Curves because I can really feel the energy in the place. It's so positive and upbeat.

They took the board down where they put the top losers of every month. So I guess they're getting ready to put new names. I'm so excited to see that maybe I'll be either 1st or 2nd on the list.

Hopefully the board is up tomorrow. I can't wait. :)
