    Thanks for the welcome back and sympathy @Brambling. It's been frustrating and I just want to feel better and healthy.

    Tomorrow, I have a weigh-in booked at the doctor's. I reckon I've put a kilo on from last month, but will report with Sunday's weigh-in. 

    Why is weight so easy to put on, but so hard to lose?

    Have been out for a bike ride today, but balanced it with eating out for lunch. Hopefully it balances out the right way! Otherwise mostly staying on track with my logging and calories, so hopefully I'll see that reflected on the scale on Monday 🤞
