Aw Dragon...sorry to hear about the painkillers. Are you O.K? I am on them permanantly is this an excuse for me being overweight?;)

My Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome stepped up a fair few notches as I took a fall a week ago (got some cracking bruises!), I try not to take pain killers unless I really have to as I was finding they were getting less effective and yes they can contribute to weight gain

:grouphug:For the pain and bruises. I hope you can get some relief. I did not realise they can affect weight. I have been taking them for at least the last 8 years. I have a bad back which sounds so lame but I had major surgery on it 5 years ago and then six weeks after that I was in a car which got shunted from behind and I have never been quite right again:doh:If you see what I mean.
I know I have menopausal symptoms too which make it harder to loose weight as well.
Whatever I can now get my "fat day" trousers on and the other day I refused to buy another pair in a size 14 because I WILL loose weight.:D
Take care Dragon.

Dragon, hope you are feeling better soon.

I am going to go in to lurking status, as I am just not loosing any thing atm, but not putting any on either, which is good!!

I still have 6 lbs to go to make my 5 stone.

Well done to all those who have lost this week / month. xx

I didnt manage to weigh myself this morning as was still 'away' - will do it tomorrow and hope for the scales to malfunction!!!!

Dragon hope you feel better soon and the bruises go quickly - are you using arnica?

Kazw sorry you have got stuck - maybe you need a new approach to your last little bit - maybe a different diet for a week or something?

well done to all who lost and keep trying to the rest of us!

I reckon if I chop part of me off, then I would be about right!:rotfl:

Anyway large pan of HM veg soup made, at least I know what is in it, unlike the can which I think are so full of hidden salt, fats and sugars!

The_Dragon

Yes to Arnica , and personally I think home made soup tastes miles better than the canned/packet stuff (saying that I do have some packets in for when I feel as though I can eat lunch )

kazwookie

Yep OH has cans of soup as he reckons they are quicker for him to heat up!

However he has just been in the kitchen, as I was portioning it up, so it will cool down quicker, and said it smell good, could he have some tomorrow!
