Hi again!!
I just changed my ticker to what I weighed this morning. Now I don’t have to feel guilty when I see it and I know I weigh more. I’m sure no one else cares but I know and it bothers me to not be honest.
My MRI shows that I have severe narrowing of the foramina at L4/5 from degenerative facet changes. aka spinal stenosis
The Doc put me on Prednisone for 2 weeks in hopes to stop the narrowing and I’ll get Epidural injections starting this week. As horrible as that sounds I’m welcoming the injection. I hope to get back into regular work outs again. TOM is here and I feel like a big fat marshmallow!!!! I’m not depressed or anything, I just feel like I’m made of jelly!!

Hope you all had a good weekend!!

ouch!

Hi people’s!! I was just doing some investigating of back problems on the net and thought I would say HI!!
I had my MRI yesterday. No news yet. Now my arms are kind of numb and really, really hurt!! I’m taking everything RX and it still is very painful. I called to see if there’s a different med I can take to kill this pain. I’ve had pain and numbness in my legs feet and toes even. So, I won’t be trying to workout until I find out what the hell is going on with me.

I hope you’re all still kicking the fat monster’s butt. I’m going to go heat my extremities!! :roll:

Hello Buddy’s and happy Tuesday!!

I’m going to have to be a slacker once again. I went to the ER on Sunday because my whole back was in spasms and my arms and legs were going numb. All they found from the x-ray wa that I have a degenerative Disc. I don’t even know if this is the cause of the pain. I may also have arthritis in my back. Anywho, I’m having an MRI done next Tuesday. For the most part it only hurts when I move around much since I’m on muscle relaxers and pain pills. I’m a bit sleepy too!!
Even better, today I was up 8 pounds from Sunday!! EEK!!!!! :shock: That is scary!!!
I tried to exercise lastnight but I was afraid that I might hurt myself worse.

Besides feeling crippled everything else is going well. (how could :lol: it not be when you’re on narcotics!! I think I may have to take a break from my Bee Team :cry:

Have a good day mates!!

My goodness!! I did it again!! Oh well I’ve noticed that we all fall down from time to time. It’s not so much that I’ve been eating bad but I haven’t been coming here!!
It’s crazy how there’s some people that start a plan and stick to it. These are the LOsers!!
I’m a hanger… I just stay here. Trying to get under 200 but not really committing to it. Ugh!! I’ve only lost 9 pounds in almost a freaking year!! I’m really not having a pity party. At least I haven’t gained. So, if I lose 10 pounds a year I’ll look pretty good by the time I’m 40!! Now I have to remind myself that I have a one year old and that I’m still behind due to the thyroid issues I’ve had. I’ll see next week where I’m at with that.
All is well. I feel healthy!! Once again however I’ve injured my back!! It’s getting a bit frustrating. I guess I can’t get away with much stress on it anymore. I’m supposed to be strengthening my core to protect my low back. If this doesn’t work I’ll have an MRI to see if something else is up. So far it’s just a nuisance. blah blah blah I’ve decided I”m going to try to wean off of my Zoloft. I’m sick of having to pop so many pills. I also heard that Zoloft can interfere with weight loss. So, wish me luck!! Hopefully I’m not crying in the corner in a few weeks!! I hope your all doing well!!
