    Morning all
    WI with tiny loss of -.4lb but still a loss so happy with that.

    Well saw the Dr yesterday and she wants to redo my bloods but the diagnosis looks like CFS (ME) :(. Earliest appointment for bloods is 4th July :mad: then have to wait 10 days for results, bloody ridiculous in this day and age! Also upping my meds to see if that helps. Will also be referred to the Fatigue team at the hospital.
    Long story short seems I have finally seen a decent Dr who is taking me seriously.
    I’m just happy to know it’s nothing really serious (if you know what I mean) seriously thought I had early onset dementia what with the serious brain fog. Couldn’t remember my own name the other day, took a few seconds and of course laughed it off but was not a nice feeling :eek:.
    Anyway, starting the extra meds today so will see how I go!

    Hope the sun is shining where you are, have a good weekend all :A
    Its not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T

    My experience was that basically unless you dont want to have a life they cant really help.

    Hi everyone, hope you're all enjoying a sunny Saturday!

    Just popping in to report a 3lb loss for my first week back on it (not in the challenge), under the 14 1/2 stone mark and never want to see it again.

    Enjoy the rest of the weekend all!

    Vitamin B12 is supposed to help with fatigue.
    Tablets or you can get a spray to spray on you tongue.

    Evening all.

    PS it's supposed to help the body convert fat to energy as well? According to what I've been reading.
