Good Morning!

Great Job on the loss!

If you do another round of P2, when would you start?
I think I will try the mug cake this weekend.
How much cocoa do you put in it?

Now I wasn't able to clean my plate - I ate until I was pretty uncomfortably full though My calories for the day were around 2200 at my best estimate. So today is a DD and hopefully tomorrow I will be even closer to my LDW of 184.8 I'm still thinking about a short P2 before my 40th birthday to get me into the 170's.

I drank 2 bottles of water yesterday with Braggs ACV and some sweetener - maybe that helped my loss. My tummy was sort of hurting though after dinner - anyone ever experience this with ACV? Also, TMI, Bernice has already generously visited this morning so my weight is probably down more I'll drink it again today and see what happens tomorrow.

I'm taking DD Gracie to the high school play "Grease" tonight - I think she'll love it. The only problem is it's at the same time as the hockey play-offs! Go Penguins!!! It's do or die now

Congrats Gracie!! You totally rock JUDDD! I can so understand wanting to do a quick round to get to goal especially with you being so close. Whatever you decide, I'm here to cheer you on!

[shari]

Good morning Gracie! Hope you had a wonderful weekend.

Hi peeps - quick fly by. I went to MedExpress yesterday because I've been feeling like crap. They diagnosed an upper respiratory infection and prescribed a ZPAC. I took two pills yesterday and one this morning. I didn't get out of bed for like 30 hours I'm still weak and not eating very much because my throat hurts. I had a good DD on Friday and Saturday was an UD but I didn't eat a lot because I felt like poo. Yesterday I laid in bed most of the day sleeping. I didn't weigh this morning and my appetite came back a bit. I had a ham, egg, cheese mcmuffin and a small whoopie pie. Hoping these meds kick in real soon so I feel better

Saturday morning my weight was 188 lbs. - so I'm staying close to my LDW.

[KOO]

Feel better sweetie!

[wmac]

Hope you feel better!!

[12yrslater]

Oh no Gracie! Sorry you are feeling crappy and hoping the meds work well. ZPak rocks!

Get better soon and don't worry about your diet in the meantime

[shari]

[12yrslater]

Hoping you are on the mend Ms. Gracie!!

[12yrslater]

Hey Gracie! Hope you are feeling better honey!

[Gracie514]

Thanks for all the get well wishes I'm feeling a little bit better but now I think I have a yeast infection on top of everything else I'm going to call my gyne to see if I can get an appointment.

Today is a DD - yesterday I pretty much ate whatever I felt like. I did have a chocolate cupcake while watching TV - and yes, it made me feel better
I weighed yesterday morning and I was 187 lbs. - so 2.2 lbs. over my LDW. Not too bad considering everything going on. Hopefully after a good DD today I will be closer to virgin territory. I'm almost done with my ZPac - one more pill left for tomorrow. I hate being sick!!!! I just want to lay in bed and sleep!!!

Hope everyone is doing good - miss you all!!!

Keep on keepin' on Gracie!!!

[shari]

Glad you're feeling a wee-bit better. Ugh, a yeast infection is no fun... I think you're doing good maintaining while eating what you want. Hope you have a great DD!

[12yrslater]

Morning Gracie! Hoping you are feeling better :hug:

Have a great day

[Deb294evr]

Feel Better Gracie!!...

[shari]

Morning Gracie, hope you're feeling better. Being sick sucks!

[Gracie514]

Good morning and TGIF! Wow, this week has totally sucked!!! I went to the gyne yesterday and I do have a yeast infection so I started on the Diflucan - feels better already Also, I thought I was going crazy - I was having major anxiety, heavy chest, headaches, and heart flutters???? I had anxiety in the past but not for years. So I decided to look up side effects of the ZPac and they are horrible!!! I found tons of people who experienced the same effects while on the ZPac. I am so mad that my doctor didn't tell me this!!! I went back to her on Tuesday and told her I was having anxious/doom feelings and she didn't even mention that the ZPac can cause this! I still had the heart flutters all night long and my sleep is horrendous. Luckily I took my last pill yesterday morning - if I would've known I would not have taken it. Apparently it takes up to 5 days to get out of your system I also read that the drug of choice for Strep infection is penicillin - not sure why they gave me a ZPac instead? I will NEVER take this drug again! Hopefully this will help someone to know that this drug can be awful!!

Okay, sorry about the rant TOM is due like TODAY and the scale is up a bit. I weigh 189 lbs this morning but I know that TOM can bring a gain of anywhere from 3-5 lbs so I'm not worrying. Once I feel better I may jump back into a short P2 to get to my goal of 179 lbs. for summer. My 40th bday is only 17 days away

Sorry to hear that the medication they gave you made you have anxiety and that you developed a yeast infection, what a crazy week for you. Oh Gracie and now TOM! Yes, only once you feel better do not go to P2 you are a yougin' and can get that weight off in no time. Take care sweetie.

[shari]

Wow, I'm glad you discovered the source of the attacks!! That's scary. I'm glad you're feeling better though. I hope you continue to get well and can enjoy the weekend.

TOM~ugh...

[wmac]

Glad you are feeling better!

You seem to be doing good with JUDD......it seems like it might work for me to maintain my weight once I lose it.

Have a great weekend!!!

[shari]

Good morning Gracie, hope you're feeling better.

[Deb294evr]

Get better soon lady!... I hope your weekend went well despite all that other stuff... have a great day!

[Gracie514]

Good morning! Thanks for all the well wishes- I'm feeling better. Of course TOM showed up today I think the Zpac is almost out of my system - never will I take that again!!! We had a busy weekend and my eating was pretty good until yesterday I had huge TOM cravings and ended up eating over my 1900 calories but I'm not worrying about it. Today is a DD and I shall do my best.

Friday is Erin's 3rd birthday! I'm going to have her party on Saturday so my DDs this week will be M-W-F and then Saturday will be an UD I can't believe she's 3 already!!!

Got lots of work to do to catch up. Everyone have a great day!!!!

[12yrslater]

Glad you're feeling better Gracie!

Have a great day!!!
