Guest guest Posted November 30, 2000 Report Share Posted November 30, 2000 Hi all - well, I have finally discovered what all of you have been talking about....fighting the scale! Since my knee surgery on 11/21 my weight has gone from 310 to 316 and am I disgusted!!!! Granted, on the day of surgery I did have tapioca pudding (ultimate comfort food for me) but other wise I have been low carb all the way! Thanksgiving also found me LC! I think I am so use to the scale going down-down-down or at least staying the same, that this uncalled for 6 lb gain has really, excuse me, pissed me off!!! I am taking 1 pain pill at night (the doctor said take them all day but I HATE drugs!).....somewhere deep inside I think that is the problem. I am also not moving around as much...ahh, the power of exercise - limited as it was. So, what am I going to do?? Nothing! I will continue to be LC, stop taking the nightly pain pill and hope when I start physical therapy in 3 weeks that I will then be able to - in the words of - Move and Groove. I can't imagine cutting down on carbs - I am already at 20-25 per day as it is. Thanks for listening all. Karyl in Illinois Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
