Catch up plus Weight Results

Start weight: 213.5 kg / 469.7 lb

Week 1 lost -2.9 kg
Week 2 lost -3.8 kg
Week 3 lost -3.4 kg

Total in 3 weeks: -10.1 kg / 22.2 lb

Started 17th July 2013 counting calories

Suffered cellulitis attack on Fri 26th Jul and upped my Keflex tabs to 4 tabs twice daily for next ten days, going back to 2 tabs twice daily on morning Tue 6th Aug

I continued counting and recording foods during the last couple weeks even though I was sick and I barely ate much at all the first week but am slowly eating more now and have to keep an eye on making sure I eat regularly plus drink a lot more than I currently am, that's a big problem for me to work on.

Exercise has been a complete no no for me, in fact it's been 24/7 bed rest, only getting up to go to the bathroom and back to bed, so that's helped a lot in regards to fluid in my legs especially the right one which had a major flare up with size, pain, redness and heat the first week or so after I got sick, but that too is coming down nicely.

I have slowly started moving my legs around more while in bed prob yesterday and today? Just have to know my limits and not push, well, not much anyway lol.

Just a quick update to let you all know that I am being strong as I can, staying on track, recording and being accountable and feeling a little better each day.
