Suz, they must talk about the same topics everywhere btw. The lady who held the meeting here said something about the prior weeks topic about 0+0 doesnt equal 0. Was last weeks meeting about postive thinking where your at?

Ive had 3 really good days

with 2 out of those days walking 7,000 steps (about 3 miles)

I MUST .... I repeat MUST start drinking more water I can still indent my legs cos of all the water!!

Can't your doctor give you a diuretic for the water retention? It's been quite a few weeks since you had your baby and I would think all the water retention should be gone by now.

thats what i thought!! i brought it up when saw doc at 2 weeks... he says it takes time!! Ill wait for my 6 weeks post natal check and see what they say!

 

[leedsforever]

I didnt think so either but you enter how many you had and thats what it said!! Maybe Suz can shead some light about it

We just talked about this last week.... 0 + 0 does not = 0

If you Lets say you get a can of the Progresso soup that says 0 points per serving. Ok you have 1 serving that is 0 points but if you eat the entire can it adds up to 2 points. Weird huh?

OK, for exaple:

1 serving of the soup has

60 Cals, 0 fat, and 4 fibers. That adds up to the 0 points.

But, you eat the entire can (which I do for lunch) I double the cals, fat and fiber. (Because there are 2 servings in the can)

120 Cals, 8 fibers, and 0 Fat.... According to my slider, its 2 points.


Does that make sense

oooh interesting.... we dont use fiber here to work out points... its just calories and sat fat!!

Been on the treadmill a few days now but had to take a break today. I have noticed my incision area is hurting so perhaps I overdid it.

 

[vicky]

TUT Tut leanne you have to take it slowly hun

 

[Mamafy]

Leeanne! Take it easy girl, only 2 more weeks before you're pounding that treadmill, I would love one; I think I'm getting one for xmas, money being alright that it

 

[leedsforever]

oh dear leeanne....

and I have a confession... I got on the scales

I really dont get it... I want to cry!! Been so good for these past 3 days... like I said 2 long walks.. etc... and Im half a pound up

Its really really getting me down!! Its shocking... I have so much to lose and Im so overweight it should be flying off!! Ive always thought (the heavier you are the easier it is to lose weight)!!

Can anyone shed any light??? All the websites say how you shouldnt even think about losing weight until 6 weeks postnatal??! But still.... I havent lost anything in 4 weeks in fact Im 2 lb up..... what the hell is going on?!?!

 

[Mamafy]

I lost nothing hun until I got my dr to prescribe a water tablet for me, I could barely bend my knee with fluid. I'd go back to the dr, sometimes the water has shifted by 6 weeks and sometimes it does need help

Hmmm...
Are you eatting enough? If you are starving your body it will do the opposite (sp) and you will gain weight. You could also be gaining muscle, but like others said maybe you do need a water pill. sorry Im not much help

So did I.

I seriously think it has a lot to do with your water retention. And I think that should be taken care of by your doctor. I had lots of water retention after my surgery and it finally went away a week and a 1/2 later. By now I would think that you would be losing some if not most of it hon.

my knees are killing me if they are bent for too long.... and if Ive been walking lots when I sit down and bend them they hurt too!! So I def think water is a prob!!

Its def something Im going to bring up next week!! I want to wear my shoes again

I think so.... I think they get a book each month so all the meetings are the same
