Hi . You should ask your dr to change medications because of the weight gain. Having excess weight caused by meds would give me anxiety. Can you take your meds at a different time, like at bedtime… read more
Hi there
I have not been on this site for a while, but have missed it. My mom was sick, and passed away in January of this year. I am not good AT ALL at loving myself. I love others, and want nothing but good for them, but I tend to sabotage myself. I would like to keep in touch with others who might be feeling the same way. I am 53, weigh 240, and I’m only 5’3” tall. I feel like I’m older than I really am. I am premenopausal, and that’s not helping me any. I want to be positive for… read more

Welcome back
Sorry for your loss
I am having a hard time just finding the energy and motivation to even start anything. I know what I need to do, i make the plan to do it but then just can't bring myself to get moving. It's like I talk myself out of it before I even get started.
Put your music on every morning.
I have no idea about anything in Canada, however, a burn center is a burn center. The problem, and solutions are universal. So I would think so. Call them and ask, and let us know.
I'm battling a condition called lymphedema on my thights and it has put a stop on my mobility, I can't do much of anything, I can barely get out the house, I can only walk a few step without being tied, it's a struggle to just go to the bathroom. I've been battling this for 5 almost 6 years now and it's getting harder by the day.
In good spirits, sad, energized, tired, bored, sick? 🙂
Thanks for your kind words, seems it’s the allergy season and I have an illness that flares up at times.
I eat when I am bored, I eat when I am tired, I eat when I am frustrated. I am constantly eating for reasons other than hunger. How do I stop? It's like it just slips under my radar and next thing I know, I have polished off a whole pie, or cookies or bag of potato chips.
When you find the answer please tell me
For me I do small workouts at home to music my favorite pop artist is Taylor Swift. Alot of people motivate you to do better on that app that I was telling you about stridekick. We motivate each other each day.
I gain “sweat equity” 🤣🤣If I don’t go for a walk for motivation, I sit down, take a look at my house….. then continue sitting 🤣🤣🤣 no seriously I look at my house and decide to do a good cleaning on… read more
I am still confused by this site and am wondering when I make an update or ask a question who sees it? only my team? or everyone on the site? Thanks
Doing better thanks for asking.. How are you
I had been having what I now believe was mild sciatica numbness and pain before a weight loss of 76 lbs. When I gained back @ 83 lbs I was hit with constant pain and spasms. It has been going on for almost a year now. Has anyone out there gone through this and found relief? What are my options? Is physio the way to go? I have found some stretches on YouTube but haven't tried them yet. Right now I take 2 muscle relaxants and 2 ibuprofen every morning before going to work so that I can function… read more
Carol I believe you and I deal with a lot of the same issues. The sciatica has been a bear since Dec. for me. I have found the stretches do really help. I have been to PT three times over the past 20… read more
