I avoid the diet versions too - I'd really rather go without than eat some of the stuff they foist on dieters. I'm on copious amounts of black coffee myself ( I'm totally immune to the effect of the caffeine) and I'm wondering if I can allow myself just one small glass of wine...

The Dragon..I hope you are feeling a little better today.

Um no, had another meltdown when we were at the nurse today and have spent most of the afternoon crying.

Oh I'm so sorry. I had my eyes opened this weekend about how hard it is to get nice clothes in larger sizes. I was looking online with a friend who is a size 28 and anything half decent in her size was sold out. Much of what was available you wouldn't want to wear.

I'm counting my blessings. I may need to lose a few pounds but I can still go into any fashion retailer and find something I like that will fit

Oh bless your cotton socks. You are weight wise in a better place to where you were last month, you completed the challenge, perfectly!

I don't know what to say about health/pain, but that I really do know how you feel. Is there anything they can do/look at to help with comfort?

Is Dr Dragon with you?

((((massive hugs)))) to you Dragon, I hadn't read pg.3, just posted and ran earlier.

AdrianHi

Dragon,
I'm cannot think of anything usefull to say that might be of comfort.
"Chin up girl" sounds a bit pathetic if your feeling so low.
lostinrates is right, last month was positive.
If your feeling in pain I have some small idea of how that can get you down. I manage an RSI condition, I'm sure nothing compared to what you have to deal with but I do know it does get very tiring at times.
Deep breath, new day dawning.

my 1st weigh in and I am down 1lb, which is pretty good going as i got Mastitis in my breast (owch) so not really been able to exercise too much pain. But real happy non the less.

The Dragon...I'm hoping you have a less stressful day to day.

Got on my home scales today (so not my oficial weigh in) and a pound down...but it doesn't count till the doctor does it on thursday.
