WC Check-In & Rainy Update

[Guest guest]

Hi Rainy,I am sorry you had such a rough day. I,too,had a big flare,mostly in my

ankles and feet but I got up this morning and the pain is now tolerable. You

are so sweet to be thinking of us and our weight problems when you can hardly

move. I have lost a total of 7 lbs as of this morning. I thought I might have

gained after all my eating of rich foods last weekend,maybe it takes time for

all that food to catch up. Now today we have a big family dinner so I will try

to avoid large portions of anything(I can say this now while I am not hungry).

Hugs

June

Tess,

It is great that you are making healthier choices! The scale doesn't matter.

I hope you decide to join your friends swimming. It is the best exercise for

arthritics. Before I started water therapy, my back was so bad that I couldn't

put my socks on by myself. I was a wreck. It really is worth the effort.

The fact that you have a friend to go with will make it so much easier.

I pray you have the courage to try it.

Some water classes require a doctor's note, so you may want to check.

hugs,

a
