Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

Well, it wasn't just that. My blood pressure went back up. Can't have that. And besides, how do you account for water weight when you don't know how much water weight you have? So... back on the pills. Went to the doc today for a check-up... 1 stone 5 pounds gone and my blood pressure was 126/76. When I went off the diuretic, it shot up to 158/76.

So yeah

Oh well. I'm used to getting up every 2 hours all night long to go to the bathroom.

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

You guys are doing better than me, foodwise. Today after grocery shopping, I caved in to my Taco Bell craving and ate a bunch of stuff I probably shouldn't eat. But oh well, that's a very rare treat for me, so my cravings are calmed for another few months.

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

I've just come across this thread.
I am where I want to be now, and have managed to lose about 3 stone over the last 4 years, going at it slowly.
I am careful now as I have no intention of gaining that weight again.
My blood pressure went down, so I no longer have to take any medication, and am only a borderline diabetic so no medication for that either.
I weigh myself every day, which I know is excessive but have got into the habbit

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

Welcome, Jainie, the more the merrier

Congrats on your weight loss and also getting off the medications. That's my goal as well. Now that I'm older, the weight loss is more for health reasons than esthetic reasons.

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

Hello Jainie---well done on your weight loss---and keeping iot off---plus getting off your medications---I guesss theres mo harm in weighing yourself every day--just as long as you remember that your weight can go up or down a few pounds for no obvious reason---but good to keep it under contriol-In try to weigh once a week--but sometimes I just forget !! As long as my clothes are feeling ok, then I know Im fine...

Re: OFF slimming club---open to everyone.

You're absolutely right, Mariana

I normally only weigh myself about once a week. Sometimes twice, but rarely. Everyone does it differently.
