Thanks for the well WISHes! But..I think I blew it on the stress part! I have been such a wreck...I have so much going on right now...I really did blow it yesterday. I was feeling a bit too sorry for myself and ate like a P-I-G!!!

Today is a new day...yesterday is behind me(I hope it doesn't attach itself back to my behind)...but I know what I did and it's over!! I'm back on track today... I kept trying to stay focused all day with today being a weigh day...but I just didn't have the strength to fight it anymore..so I caved! Since Monday is my 2 month weigh and measure day at Curves...I will wait and use Monday's weight. I'm drinking Xtra water today and tomorrow to flush.

Have a great weekend!!

Thanks for all your support! You guys are great!! I went to my doctor appointment and my thyroid is way out of whack! 18 point something...the normal is like .5 to 5.0...so I'm starting my thyroid medicine today...talked to the doctor and she wanted to know why I stopped taking it a year ago...I told her I was going through some sort of depression etc. Well, she wants to treat me for depression...I asked her if I could start the thyroid medicine until my physical on April 5th and see if that helps...since I feel much better now...don't feel depressed...just super stressed. She agreed to wait until then.

I stopped back here to eat(that way I eat right) before getting my mammogram! I'll get to journals in a little bit! Thanks for being so great...oh yeah...my weight is at 208.5!!! Yippee...I have to change my ticker...that's 18.5lbs since Jan 1!!! I'm happy...shooting for that 20 lbs this week...I want a new clippee!!!

Mammogram is over...wasn't that bad. Have to go back next week to have a sonogram on my thyroid.

Things have gone well today...I am in much better spirits than I have been in a while! Hopefully by releasing this stess and taking my meds, the scales will be a bit more friendly! Wishful thinking!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

good luck with the thyroid sonogram..i almost stopped taking my meds bc of depression, but i was still like 16 and mom wouldnt let me hahaha--i took a bunch of different meds and i eventually was okay,,so dont let that stop you this time good luck

 

[sarahsmom73]

WOW Gail! I am glad you went to the doctor! Good luck with the thyroid!

Hi Gail!!

I've gotten all caught up on your journal - my last post here was prior to the Valentine's Day flower fiasco! I'm so sorry for not stopping by more often.

I'm very glad you are going back on your thyroid meds! Sounds like your weight loss will go much easier once your dosage is regulated. You've been melting away those pounds - YAY!!

Reading your journal has inspired me today - thanks!!

Have a terrific Tuesday!!

Congratulations on your weight loss, Gail! Keep up the good work!

I hope that the thyroid medication helps.

Have a wonderful day today, filled with and .

I just couldn't help myself!! I had to change my ticker again!! I know...I'm a scalaholic...but I just had to share...down another .5 from yesterday! That 20 lb clippie is so close. Then my next victory will be 10%, then half way to goal...then 25lbs then ONEderland!! I'm just getting so excited!!

Congrats on the loss Gail.

I am also a member of the scaloholics anonymous. Keep up the great work, and that 20 pound clippie will be yours.

Yay Gail!!!

Unbelievable!!! I weighed myself this morning...205!!! That's a total of 22 lbs...and 5 lbs since Monday! I'm following WW...feel like I'm eating all the time!! I couldn't believe it...so I went out and bought new batteries for my scale(it's a Tanita) came home...put them in...it was the same(I even used put one of the regular scales at walmart on the floor and weighed myself there)...so I had my son weigh himself on it and his weight was right. Next I'm going to have my daughter weigh herself, cause we weighed her Monday. Everyone says it's my thyroid...that it's kicked in and doing what it's supposed to do. I still can't believe it.

My friends keep telling me to accept it, but of course I'm going to remain in doubt! How did this happen? It just doesn't seem logical to me. Guess I should just take it, cuz we know how disappointing some of these weeks are!

Well..I just had to share...anyone else have this happen?

WOW Gail! Did you say 5 lbs. since Monday? That is wonderful, Gail!! I am so glad that Weight Watchers is working for you! Keep up the good work!
