♥️🙏 don’t beat yourself up over a random weight fluctuation!! It’s a medical daily event, and worse for those who are dwellers. Don’t go off of the day. You hang in there and I’m glad you vented on your journal. I know for me, it’s a release. If you need to reach out more send a pm to someone here you feel comfortable with. 💜💚

I know... and under all the feelings, I know it's as simple as...lose weight, sign up for college, gain control... but damn it just feels like another ball and chain is added everyday and I'm tired....
Maybe I should meal prep.... working makes me feel better.... so tomorrow...I'll meal prep
Thank you.

Your not desperate because you are venting ... but I can tell you one thing ... your an amazing person who feels everything deeply... and because of that your a compassionate person ... a person who wants to help others ... whether it’s people or animals ... you care ... and if everyone in this world were like you it would be a better place...I know right now you feel down... but this feeling won’t last forever... you will get through this ... and you have a support system her on FS... you got this ....

I random weight fluctuate like you do. I don’t drink water regularly- meaning small sips all day. If I do, not as thrown off by huge amounts of weight shifts. Plus I workout more which keeps me at a plateau which is better than up.

Don’t know if signing up for college AND weight loss meal prep can be done at the same time at first. You’re asking too much of yourself. Try one first til you feel you’ve moved the needle upwards.

Don't compare yourself to anyone you are your own person, and what your husband is saying about your weight, that's just going to bring you down, its mentally draining hearing loved ones say something about your weight. just think positive. I used to add on weight when i would sleep than I started putting ginger and lemon in my sleepy time tea and ive been dropping 2+ pounds a night the ginger and lemon are natural calorie burners

As far as I’ve read, fluctuation is pretty normal. And I personally experience it

Your body can fluctuate naturally several pounds a day. For me it's Up to 3 pounds as I am steroids for Asthma a bad day and more rescue inhaler so I average over a week. Docs instructions..!!!! No idea what pain meds you are on it any They can make a difference. If you are on Facebook find Emily Lark back to life. She has lots of exercises that help backs. I have an exercise DVD of hers and love it. (Not an ad for her just her exercises have helped my sciatica). I actually have to go buy a DVD player because my laptop with the DVD player is not working at the moment and My old DVD player won't connect to new tv's. My back needs my exercise routine!! It 's a huge challenge to live with someone who continually drags you down. I understand I've been there.

I ran 5 minutes straight- came home out of breath and my husband said "How'd that go?" with a smile on his face and said "You need to work on your cardio." I said-"Fuck you- I know that." People are assholes. The more I get the idea that someone wants me to lose weight- the more I rebel. I need people to stay completely out of my weight loss and occasionally throw me a compliment. You are going to have to do it for yourself and figure out some things that work regardless of the pain your in. Just do it. Screw everybody else. I fluctuate 3-4 pounds all the time. ALL the time. Eventually the weight drops. It's never a straight line. you know this from your first time losing weight, I am sure.

I had to completely shut my husband out of my 'weight issues'. He's not supportive and I couldn't stand the shitty comments. If he starts to say something about how I look or what I'm eating, I tell him it doesn't concern him. I am jealous of people with supportive spouses, but you can't really change people, so you have to work with what you have. And a little anger goes a long way when getting excersise.....but it sounds like you already know that. 😉 👍

I'm reading Keto-Adapted and watching Stephanie Keto Person on Youtube. I'm coming out of chronic joint pain and a colon infection without antibiotics. It's been a long journey. All the best to you.

Wow Hunter!!!!! Good for you for venting and let your voice be heard. You have got more balls than me. The first step is exactly what you have done here. Putting it down in ink. I hear you and I also understand you. Sometimes it’s very hard to put yourself out there without being judged, but I absolutely admire your strength here. You’re not only speaking for yourself here ,but you are speaking for many of us on here. That insecurity that feeling of helplessness, I totally have felt that before. I am loving your attitude, and your will to get better in life. This is not an easy situation you are battling here. As far as your hubby goes, that’s really a tough one because that’s your home situation we’re talking about. Maybe when the stuff dies down there’s somebody you can reach out to online, that may help in that situation. Having a third person letting him know that what he saying and doing is hurtful might help you. Having medical issues is not easy. But your spirit is truly inspirational here, I see how much you want to get better ,fit and healthier for you and your children, and for that I commend you. This is the beginning of your journey for a healthier life ,hang in there and you could do this.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’m really sorry you are going through this. I have to say it’s not as simple as lose weight, losing weight is hard. The hardest part is that we expect it to happen a lot quicker than it does and we can’t fix years of bad food choices in a few weeks. I’m going through that frustration right now. It’s not simple, so it’s normal to struggle don’t beat yourself up about it. The important thing is don’t give up. I’ll share that when I was at the the lowest point in my life, the only thing that brought my motivation back and brought me back to life was finding a good therapist. I have been able to work through some really dark things, and body image is one of them. I hope you give yourself some kindness and understanding, losing weight is hard and even more if you are doing so with chronic pain.

Glad you felt you could vent here. Sometimes, you need to get the frustration out so that you can take a step back and restart yourself in a positive direction. You are NOT alone. I have found taking a super B supplement helps me with my own depression and anxiety; perhaps, that could be of benefit to you. Please do not give up. You can do this for yourself.

Thank you for sharing all that - I remember you well and I KNOW you can regroup and find some joy for now. You have done this before and can just take little steps. Inflammation can cause gain and chronic pain.
