Had my weigh in last night and another pound off, one pound last week and two the week before.. so it's taken me 6 weeks of being soooo good to lose exactly a stone. Not that I'm complaining really, a stone is great, it's just so very frustrating to see people losing so much weight so quickly when I'm not!!
I started well, 3 pounds then 4 pounds, then my doctor put me on sodium dyclofenac (strong NSAID's) and co-codomol for pain relief and since then my loss has slowed dramatically. I know you get water retention with the NSAID's, and I am losing inches, it's just at a pound a week I will be months reaching goal!
It doen't help that I cant move around much at the moment (I have trapped a nerve in my spine and have sciatica down one side - awaiting an MRI scan), how can I burn off more calories when sitting? I tried my son's dumbells for my arms last night - any ideas anyone?
