I am so very frustrated...

Hi all - I've hardly been posting at all, and wanted to tell you why, since I really do appreciate all the support and friendship here. I've made pretty much zero progress. I've made huge strides in changing my eating habits, cutting calories, adding both aerobic (my kids and I have spent most of the summer at the swimming pool) and resistance exercises. Although I must say that I 'feel' better, I haven't really lost any weight. It'll go down 10 pounds, then back up 6, etc. End result is that I'm down about 2 pounds from where I was when I started in April. Some of you know this has been an ongoing thing - that my doctor is unable to figure it out, that I've VERY carefully monitored everything over and over, etc. I can only assume that it is a result of one or a combination of my other health issues - hypothyroidism, Crohn's disease (which ironically usually makes people lose weight) and asthma (can't really see a connection there). BIG SIGH. I'm starting to consider surgery, to be honest, but I suspect that I won't be a candidate because of the Crohn's. ANYWAY - this is NOT an invitation to a pity party, I just wanted to let y'all know why I'm missing in action.

I just wanted to tell you that I'm glad to see your familiar "face" back here and that I'm sending good vibes your way so that your hard work will eventually pay off. Don't give up!!
