WEIGHT this morning was 167.8lb, last week was 171.8lb. That is 4 pounds, but I was sick over the weekend, so not sure how much I can count... I'll see what next week numbers show...
My starting out weight was 174.2, so I've lost 6.4 pounds total!
Like I mention I was sick all weekend. Friday night I came down with mastitis. This was a FIRST time ever and I hope it's the LAST time ever. OUCH, OUCH, OUCH!!! I was in tears Friday night from the pain and I also had chills and a fever. I was feeling terrible. Saturday, I felt somewhat better, but still not good and yesterday I felt a bit better still and today fever is gone and I felt pretty much bad to normal. I was still sore and hard in the infected area, but now even that is not as bad. Much better this evening!! Praise the Lord!!
So I spent the weekend in bed, not how I planned the weekend, but it is what the Lord gave me.
This week, I don't really have any goals, but to get completely well. Dh and I both agreed I need to take the week off walking, I need to get better and have no relapses. I'll get behind, but hopefully I'll catch up over the next few weeks.
I will use some of my resting time to catch up on my Bible reading, I got behind while I was sick, I felt so awful, I couldn't even concentrate to read on anything.
I hope you ladies have a great week. The Lord is keeping me humble, that is for sure. I'm thankful and will praise HIM for it.
You are wise to take this week to rest. I hope that mastitis clears and doesn't come back again. I deal with recurring mastitis when I'm nursing and it's miserable. Enjoy your time to read!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely wise to REST.That is one of the most important things for mastitis!
ReplyDeleteThats a great weight loss!Hopefully it stays! :)
Tanya, I am SO sorry about the mastitis. I used to get that a LOT.(I've had it over 6 times...) Then I had a nurse who told me this... "Fluids, Rest, and an Empty, Br**st." She said those three things are THE MOST BENEFICIAL thing to keeping away the mastitis infections. I don't know if it would help you... but since putting that to practice in my life... I haven't had a SINGLE infection.
ReplyDeleteThey are so awful!!! And I truly am sorry you ended up with one. Taking the week to allow your body to rest is a GOOD idea. Keep making healthy choices in food!
And GREAT job on the weight loss. :)
What BrandyLynn suggested is what my sister's midwife told her. I hope you ENJOY your week to rest and read. And WAY TO GO on the weight loss! :)
