Day 15

Could not bring myself to weigh in today... but went to the doctor and in full dress with coat I was over 260... My guess is I'm around 252. I am back on track today but I will take 3 or 4 days to get back to where I was.

Good news is that the pain is gone and the doctor today said there was nothing wrong... no hernia or anything else. Seems it was just an inflammation unrelated to diet.

Day 14

Worse yet...
Epic Fail today...
Did not feel well... ate everything in the house... twice...
I will start back up Monday with diligence. I'm sure I'm up 5 pounds by now.

Day 13

traveling... did not weigh in
I have not done well

Weightloss Challenge
Current Remaining Lost

30 days 10 20


oops... up a half... not trending well.
My pain has gotten severe... went to the doctor today. He says it is not GI related, there is no fever or infection, no blockages or anything pointing to diet. That rules out diverticulitis... yay... I can still have my almonds!
Still not sure what it is... he thinks it could be a high groin pull or even a hernia though he couldn't tell himself. I am seeing a specialist on Monday. In the meantime... muscle relaxer and inflammation reducer.

Day 10

10/31/12 morning
Weightloss Challenge Current Remaining
Goal: 30 pounds 244.5 16
30 days 9 21

Odd day... no weight loss today. My pain is still there... diverticulitis...
The almonds that I added into my eating apparently combined with the low fiber diet has really caused some inflammation. I have gone on antibiotics and will eliminate the nuts. Drinking LOTS more water and adding fiber tablets to the diet.

As you can see I did a little 'feel sorry for myself' eating today... really just wanted enough in my system to handle the antibiotics i am taking... at least that's my excuse.
