Windy Day's Journal, 05 June 2024

Well, good morning all. Apparently Ive had a massive 3 lb water weight gain overnight. Very discouraging as I have stuck strictly to plan. Can only be inflammation from either the steroid shot I had on Monday, or the swelling from yet another allergic reaction last night. So today I am going to try eliminating all but a few safe low cal foods and see if I can get this water weight off.

I'll drink lots of herbal tea and lemon water. Apples. Salad greens. Rice. (I think rice must be acceptable? Ive got to look up elimination diet, this is all new territrory for me). Beef.

Hope everyone has a great day and stays safe and well. xo

oh no. that's a lot of inflammation. I'd say no to rice. keep it protein and fat. I hope it goes down soon. I'll virtually send you one of my beef tenderloins for dinner.

I know that disappointed feeling of seeing the scale go the wrong way 😩 it’s mostly likely inflammation. I hope that you start getting better. Allergic reactions are scary, be careful. Wishing you the best 🙏

Thanks Jen for the beef tenderloin 😀😆 Not sure of anything anymore as so much conflicting info online re elimination diets for allergy. Some say this some say the opposite. Definitely feeling irritated about this set back 😬

Thanks so much Mzceb. Yeah it hurt 😭 But I've just got to get to the bottom of whatever is causing these reactions and obviously huge inflammatory response. Dr appt a week away. Til then trial and error I guess. 💪

It's not fair when you are eating so well. Thanks for the hugs. Hubby had chemo day.

How did that go, Morticia? Im sending all the love and prayers and virtual energy I can muster for you both.

The answer is all of the above. Give your body time to process both the steroid shot and the inflammation from the allergic reaction. This weight gain has nothing to do with food.

Read up on the side effects of steroids 
06 Jun 24 by member: Kenna Morton
I agree, it's both. And I did, the side effects are horrendous. Im not taking ANY oral steroids, and it would have to be a dire situation before I let them give me another shot as well. I knew it wasn't food, and that was actually as discouraging if not moreso than if I had cheated, bc at least I would have felt in control. I'll get this back under control.
