Huge weight gain from meds

Re: Huge weight gain from meds

So true
I heard the other day that we could talk to ourselves as if we are a cute little puppy. " oh good girl, who's a gorgeous girl, what a good girl" it's a kinda lovely thought pattern.
I went to a cafe for a chai with a friend.
I caught a surprise look at myself in a mirror.
I was like oh darling you are such a big girl
I avoid mirrors but I was happy with the tone of my thought itwas gentle.
I was just so fit all my life.
I still have trouble with recognising myself in that situation!

Best of luck I hope your able to reach your goal and sustain it.
I hope we get some great ideas here.
I just found hypnosis for weightloss on spotify.
So I am giving that a go.
I have cut out sugar.
I have cut out alcohol
I love the idea of swimming you have inspired me to check out the local pool.
I hate chlorine but maybe it's a new salt on, I will go with an open mind.

Thankyou, I have a grand dog, and it's an abbreviation of grandma!
Good advice I have heard that sometimes hunger is thirst.
I have also read that green tea is particularly good for the metabolism.

Very sad for you that you are dealing with cancer as well, I hope that your treatment protocol is kicking goals for you 🙏
