Weekly weigh in - Fridays

[SWUSA_]

20/1 - Good Morning and Well Done to all those who have lost weight. I have put on 4 lbs since last Friday and weigh in at 13 stone 8 lbs (for 7 weeks remained at 13st 4lbs) - I am just 'shocked' and can only think/blame it on the Forusemide (Diuretic) Tablet being stopped a week ago because of suspected Gout in my left Ankle?

I can't take furosemide (or aspirin) because of gout-I take lisinopril instead.

I just nipped down to the 7/11 store on the corner and if their musical scales are to be believed my weigh today is 63.6 kg.
1 kg or about 2 lbs down from last Friday. And I would be at my target weight of 140 lbs again. i just hope I can maintain that when I get home next week.

Looking forward to friday's weigh-in. I hope I'm not disappointed. Bathroom floor not great for my sensitive scales. I might have to find a better floor.

Hurray, hurray, hurray
I've lost.
130.70kgs this morning, I checked twice. Maybe metformin making a difference, at last.
Was 133.70 so lost 3kgs = 6.6lb this week. Water retention tried it on last night then decided otherwise.

I weighed a few hours earlier than last week before ablusions and I'm 132.70kg so loss of 0.5kg = approx 1lb.
I've sweated like a beast this week too. Virus.
I hope I lose more next week?

Ooops!

I'm hoping I can get very active again. I have everything set up, they just need ME.
I'll feel reborn if cardiologist can get rid of my breathlessness. Physio fix my back pain too.
I'm so needy at mo.
I've been sooooo independant its not funny anymore.
Well at least I can do my diet part.

yes it is so easy when one do not have all those issues on top of all the others.... but most of us only realize it when we got imobilized from something serious...
I hope you´ll get much better soon... big hug from me ickihun and yes it is a serious handicapping condition to have breathlessness then one can not do almost any excercise...

Good news for me this morning.

Lost another kilogram this week. This brings my total weight-loss to 8 kilograms in the 8 weeks since I was diagnosed as type 2.

My starting weight was 113 kg and now down to 105.

Stayed the same this week although I've pretty much done the same as last two weeks diet wise. Although I did have a hypo on Wednesday night meaning I had to eat to bring my levels back up. I've had to take a bit more insulin though and it turns out I'm type 1 not type 2. Actually maybe I've not had the same week as previous two lol. I'm just glad I'm not gaining and I'm working on carb counting and getting my sugars stable.

27/1 - Good Morning. Have lost 2 lbs since last Friday and weigh in at 13 stone 6 lbs.
@mo53 - 're-started the Forusemide (Diuretic) only took it for 4 days, now stopped and back on Dapagliflozin = the weight and HBA1C should start to decrease now? (Fingers crossed).
Well Done to Everybody .

Can I join in please? I have managed to be reasonably good since diagnosis T2 in September but we had guests yesterday and I gorged on nuts. DH has his birthday Sunday so we are going out for a meal Saturday, Cosmo Sunday and a medieval banquet on Friday. I do intend to be careful and DH is quite happy for the contents of his plate to be rearranged to suit me but this could be the start of something bad.

I am 5ft 4. Currently weigh 81.1 kg. Want to lose another 2 stone . Waist 38. On 20 September I was 14st something
Blood pressure 97 66 83. In Sept I was HBa1c 51.

Is there a rule of thumb about how much weight I would have to lose to get a waist of 31? Until age 35 I was a skinny strip of wind and I totally refuse to be like that again.

 

[Liam1955]

Welcome @covknit .
Nuts are great for lowering and controlling blood sugars.

 

[JohnEGreen]

10 stone 10 Lbs this morning that's a pound down on last week almost 8 stone lost since I started at 18 stone 7 Lbs

@Liam1955 The only way I can eat nuts these days is as peanut butter or such like would that still work.

LOL

Thank you for providing a useful analogy. Thing is I now have to work harder at exercising.

 

[Liam1955]

@JohnEGreen - Well Done on your weight .
2 Tablespoons of Peanut Butter has around 190 calories, 16 grams of Fat (3 grams of Saturated Fat) 8 grams of Protein, 3 grams of Sugar.
It is a great source of Omega-6 fatty acid, good for Bones and Metabolism. Enjoy.

My favourites are Walnuts and Unsalted Cashew Nuts.
