are you in any type of pain today?

Well if my clothes weren't so snug then I would say no. lol...

They gave her a ventolin inhaler. It is used when you feel short of breath. It is tested by measuring you lung capacity, and how easily you cope with that test. The test simply involves blowing into a machine. Nothing to worry about.

Sorry to break the bad news:
To decide on whether that is a weight issue for you personally, you need to check your bmi rating:

My sister had that too when she was younger but somehow, it just went away and never comes back.

My neck is a little stiff this morning. It must have been the way I slept.

apart from all the usual, stomach cramps from hell. they are so bad they've actually kept me off the forum

I won't go in to detail but definitely feel like I'm falling apart lately

Did you have a checkup to find out the cause?

Tired.

Not so tired: I slept until 12:10pm today.

I needed a lie-in.

I stubbed my toe again. This is happening to much lately.

I was like that when I was obese. It isn't pleasant.

I lost about 50 pounds, it took about 6 months or so for most of it, and about another year for the rest. I did it on my own so those are only estimates. I used to be a size 18-20 now I am a 10-12, that's 6-8 in usa sizes.

I have been this size now for 20 years, so don't let anyone say "You always put it back on and more."

I didn't like being fat. I didn't like being breathless, I didn't like going OOF every time I bent over, and I didn't like how I looked. My ex fil used to describe fat women as sacks of potatoes tied up in the middle. I didn't like that either as I used to think of that when I looked in the mirror.

Now I can breathe easily, and look okish when dressed nice. I am determined never to be obese again.

Thanks. 

I don't really feel I am missing out, as I do allow myself some greed every time I go under target, or if I am on target, I get to indulge.

Life is not all about eating.
