Thanks laparshall for the encouragement. I guess I hadn't thought about I have been losing all along and that might be why my loss was "normal". :-D It's just that a woman who joined the same time as me lost 6lbs. I did work hard last week and was hoping for a bigger loss than 2.2lbs.
Please know we are here to support you thru this bad physical time. Just as JanRN said it is a blip and will pass. I am glad you are not giving up since that never gets us anywhere. Like most of us there are times we have to put things we do on hold and thats all this is. When you are feeling better exercise will be doable again. Sorry to hear you are in pain, it must be difficult. Stay encouraged!
