My Six Stone Challenge

Cried this morning and found out that I'd put on Hal a stone since September. Now 16st 2lbs. I need to do something about this.
 
Don't beat yourself up about this, it has happened you can't change that now. Just reset and start again. I know it is difficult as I have been trying to lose 4 stone for the past 3 years and only ever seem to lose a stone and put half of it back on.

Feeling for you.... After the year you have had, just take time to reset & most of all, please try to feel good in yourself.

Yikes I have somehow managed to reach my heaviest weight evee after recently and rapidly putting on seven pounds - which coincided with my GP putting me on a strong dose of ranitidine which greatly increased my appetite.
I eat fairly low carb but my challenges are:
A) easily drinking several glasses of wine in the evening
B) needing to eat low fibre because of the gastroparesis
C) Very erratic BGs since trying to stop the Gastroparesis drugs
D) very low levels of exercise due to difficulty walking, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and no longer having Susie to take me for walks
I am shocked to say that at only 5 foot I weigh 15 stone 7lbs!!
So my plan is start with a maximum of 1670 calories a day and log my weight loss and food on here and My Fitness Pal. Obviously alcohol will need to be substantially reduced 🙂
