Stress? 

Bread and sugar. It takes between 48 and 60 hours to metabolize what we eat, so today's weight reflects what you ingested 2 days ago. It's ok, you'll take it off. 

I figured, kes. The water I drank yesterday went to the glucagon stores, which are all full again. 

Hang with it 

You urged me on when I was in the same place last week, and you were right. This too will pass before you know it. 

I am starting for the first time with this fat secret app. I must say I do like the app alot. I am a diabetic and I am trying to get my blood sugars under control. I want desperately to lose weight but it is not easy for me. I just started to walk yesterday. I have tried and failed so many times. Hopefully this time I will be successful.  

Trying and failing so often just means you really want this. You will be successful. You will learn new strategies and you will prevail! 

Kim that's why you are such and awesome source of support. 

Don't sweat it too much. 

Barb, don't you agree the desktop is better than the app? I like the app for quick food logging, but the community functions don't even come close. 😐 

Oh yes! definitely better. The app makes community connections harder and limits them. Comments are hit and miss, you can't read others food/exercise journals. And there are no form or challenge access 

haha now i see why you let family make so many demands on you. you are a nurse, i can say that as i too am an rn , though retired now after nearly 50 yrs in the trenches. givers are givers whether at workor at home. and people zero in on that 

Including our employers, right? Pssst *Allina is union busting* but you didn't hear it from me 😷
