Ms. A, my weight has rebounded up a bit since my last loss, to 207.6 today. I'm still slowwwly trending downward, but it's frustrating to see it go up again - I know. It stands to reason that if we just keep doing what we're doing, those water- and fat-hoarding cells will eventually give up the ghost. One can only hope!

I struggle with eating low carb. That is, between three areas of struggle, getting it all together is nearly impossible. But I dont quit-- I keep hoping it will all align and work for me. With ADD my ability to manage impulses is always a problem; really impossible. My meds are limited to an OTC supplement as I cant affort the Ritalin and working with my doc is frustrating as she requires urine test to make sure I am not abusing the drug. Very demeaning. Especially when I have seen a family devastated by illegal drugs, both parents nearly dying and both children removed from their home, thank God. Despite multiple calls to welfare and police nothing was done for YEARS. Just neighbors trying to help the kids. ANyway..... I am reliant on my OTC tyrosine and drinking green tea and my vitamin/ mineral supplements. THen to fight off the SAD mentallity that surrounds me. OTher than here on this forum I have no VLC supporters. Need to get enough sleep so my brain can function at its best, which is never perfect anyway. And hope that I can increase my physical activity when my back allows.

So many factors NOT in my favor but I keep trying, as these can align and I am on my way again. HOPE.

I'm back down to 206.8 today. I knew that 0.8 lb spike had to be water, but still it messes with your mind. Onward ho ...

Is anybody still doing this? I hope so. I'm a glutton for punishment and am going to see if I can get my weight down under 200 lb by the end of this year. I'm so close, I might as well go for it.
