Weight History
showing entries 1 to 1 of 1
13 February 2012
I am 64 years old, married 45 years, 4 children, 9 grandchildren, retiring 2/29/12. I have been overweight for years,adding weight after each child( I have 4), topping out at approx 280. I have been up & down from 250 to 270 for the past 10 years, doing lowcarb, never getting below 250. I also have osteoarthritis, difficulty walking, all joints affected, hands, back shoulders, hips,feet,etc. For the past 15 years, I have been taking kind of anti-inflammatory drugs. Occasionally, I would have heartburn, take Prilosec, the hearburn would go away. On Sunday, Jan 22, I had the worst hearburn ever, not just burning, a sharp pain that shot through my upper chest straight through to my back. Couldn't move,lay down,sit up,walk, just so painful. Worst than when I had a kidney stone, but not quite as bad as childbirth. Dr stopped Aleve at once, I am now taking Tylenot Arthritis. I got online & started an ulcer diet. For a week, I ate nothing but toast,baked potato,bananas,no caffeine, 4-5 small meals,low fat. I have slowly added back coffee(1 cup a day.), small portions of regular food-1/2 c of chili yesterday.etc. In 3 weeks I have lost 13 pounds, my stomach has shrunk, & on my way to a permanent change in my eating. What a miracle the Lord has done for me. I did not want to have the pain,but now I will do anything to keep it from coming back. I am keeping to 20 grams of fat a day, eating small portions. 1st time I am changing my eating habits rather than "dieting."
