Lost quite a bit, but not entirely happy about it as I'm also having a horrible IBS episode. Would rather have lost 3lb and not have a sore tummy in all honesty.

I'm glad to see your good loss but not happy that you are having IBS issues.....maybe I can help you figure out which food your body is having trouble with?
Do you log your food into your journal?

I do, but I suspect that it is the caffeine in Pepsi Max or just a general excess of artificial sweeteners. I haven't felt quite right since I tried some diabetic sweets containing polyols/sugar alcohols last week.

I suspect the caffeine/Pepsi as I was fine all afternoon until I came home and had a sip of Pepsi Thanks, Judy!

So sorry! Many peopple are very sensitive to sugar alcohols.... you are wise to see this so that you can avoid them after this.

Once upon a time, I thought I was so smart to find a no sugar added soft serve ice cream and went ahead to have a rather large cup......uhoh! it was loaded with maltitol...which sent me to the bathroom for the next several hours. I learned my lesson!!

Ouch, Judy!! You can be sure that I am reading labels very carefully now, especially with sugarfree treats. My tummy seems to be no longer in distress which is a massive relief. I haven't tried anything caffeinated today as I'd quite like to have a nice comfortable day!! I have also done one mile of WATP which was v.energetic and I feel great!!

Hope everyone has a fantastic Saturday

I just realized that I forgot to put in my weight for last week. That's ok. Not much of a change. But on a positive note I didn't gain a ton of weight considering the fact that I fell off the wagon!

Hello All, I have enjoyed reading your posts. JudyNYC you've got some good advice and DonnaLiz67 I love your siggy, I'm a flybaby too!

Well I will start by saying that 2 years ago My son was killed in a tragically on his way home he was 19. I just didn't want to live anymore and ate my way from the 125 pounds that I was to 174. Thinking dying of a heart attack might make me be able to live with my son in heaven anyway. I praise Jesus that he was saved, and I know I will see him again. It seems from scripture ezekiel 38-39, and Psalm 83 that the Rapture of the church may take place any time now.

I care again about life, and living and I want to lose the weight I put on during the first 2 years of my grieving process. I need you guys to help me stay accountable. I love the daily weigh ins I know some people say don't weigh every day, but It helps me.

On a happy note, we are going on our first cruise with our son who lives with us and is now 19, (a whole other reason to worry since he's the same age as his brother was when he was killed) anyway, we are going as a family with his girlfriend and her family. I'm really looking forward to it, and want to drop a significant amount of weight before we leave October 30th. Just a couple months away!

So glad to be on board with you all, I hope to be an encouragement to you all as we journey this road together!

Dear RaptureRdy~
I am so sorry to hear of your tragic loss. I hope that your faith provides comfort for you when you need it most.
This website will provide a lot of support for you. There is a recipe forum to draw from, a challenges section you can join, as well as a personal journal you can start. I wish you much success.
~Renee4LC

Renee4LC Thank-You so much, it's still so hard and at times seems unbearable, but then I think how far Jesus has carried me and I know he won't drop me now! I love that there is a recipe page here too, that will really help when I have to take my sb book back to the library ;-)

Ok Here goes! I must start to plan or even cook my lunch and dinner ahead of time. I did great on the first 2 weeks of the plan, when it was time to shift to phase 2, I started thinking I could make some changes do it my way and still stick to the plan, boy was I fooling myself! ;-)
