I “relapsed” this morning...
It could have been worse I suppose. I was up all night with a pain in my stomach. It went from stabbing, to a dull achy to a cramping feeling. To be honest I was thinking maybe my cycle was coming early or something... I tried curling up in fetal position on my left side (it’s supposed to help with stomach pain, cramps even gas or acid reflux) but I tossed and turned all night ☹️ it’s on my left lower side mostly.
When I woke up the only thing on my mind was a steaming hot mug of old fashion (GF) rolled oats with some butter and cinnamon. So I ate it... and I actually did get some comfort from it... it’s my “hug in a mug”, the texture, aroma and how filling it is, just the best while eaten piping hot alone on a comfy couch gazing out of your favorite window...
Sooooo.... now that I am tired from being up all night, pain has subsided for now, I plan to stay home doing light chores in pajamas all day and I will try to keep my carbs at zero, and tomorrow is a brand new day...
Logging and moving along.
It’s easier to be hard on ourselves when we make mistakes but self love and forgiveness is very important in a successful weight loss journey. Today I choose love and self care.
♥️
Wishing you all an amazing Friday eve 😉

@crankybuzzard, still feeling out of whack. Tired, crampy and cranky. I had a salad for lunch and a quest bar several hours ago and I’m still very full feeling.
I’m going to chug a lot of water and tea and go to bed early. See if that helps. I’m even thinking of some light yoga... maybe my organs and system need a little gentle movement... I don’t know but whenever I think of a home remedy that may help my issues I think it’s intuition telling me, so I try to listen.

Have you considered gall bladder issues? Left side pain is sometimes an indication. Make sure to take care of you...

@cranky yikes. Didn’t think of that.
I’ll google that and keep an eye on it.

Thanks everyone! You are all awesome!

@cranky I don’t much about gallbladders, I googled and a few of
my symptoms fit... I also read to eat fresh fruits and veggies and low fat if you think you’re having an attack, do you think I should stick to a liquid and fruit/veggies diet tomorrow if I still feel a little icky?!

I had diverticulitis on the lower left side. Felt like I was in labor. ER visit turned into hospital stay. I hope you are feeling better.

@moondove how old were you when you got that?
My dad just started getting flare ups of that about two years ago, around 59yo. But also started having anxiety, blood pressure issues, diabetes, palpitations and all sorts of thing 5 years ago and has been on hand fulls of meds a day ☹️ I wish he would just change his diet and I Bet 1/2 his symptoms would go away.
Diverticulitis is no joke. The antibiotics to treat it are so strong that my dad can’t drive for two weeks because of the vertigo and weakness ☹️ but then refuses to take probiotics and I think the cycle is just awful for him

Your gallbladder is situated in the upper right hand side of your abdomen so if your pain is lower left I can't see how it could be that. Make sure you get your stomach checked out if it continues.

@doobrie thanks for the info!!!
The pain seems like it was intestines or uterus.... but definitely more my lower left flank of my body.
I do have kidney issues from time to time in my upper right flank... usually triggered by a high phosphorus diet or freeze dried coffees (instant junk).
Two days ago I did try out the “swerve” sugar sub. Does anyone think that could have been the issue?
I woke up with no abdominal pains today!!

What a great outlook on a "relapse". No truer words are spoken about being kind to yourself!! Keep up the good work :)

@3xmamma I have been trying to practice self love, acceptance and forgiveness. I had always had extremely low self worth and self esteem. So treating my body like a friend has been an extremely successful way to lose weight. When I do good things and think good things I see the changes, the scale moving and other people even have been telling me that they see the weight changes. Even when I was teeny tiny with a six pack and modeling job I HATED my body... So I am not going to beat myself up over a mug of oatmeal... trying to learn to love this mom bod.

I just looked up quest bars online to double check. Did you realise they contain stevia? Another note on eating protein bars. Remember to down LOTS of water with them or they will bind your intestines in a knot. They are not really natural food. 🤷🏻♀️

@SMP UGH, everything comes with a price unless it’s real food these days ☹️
I haven’t had any migraines eating the quest bars. But I only eat 1/3 of the bar because my kids come along asking for a chunk lol it’s mostly when beverages have stevia that I have noticed the migraines 🤷♀️
