GACK! Weight gain whine

[nwhiker]

Last week, I was completely on program. I did eat 40 of my 49 points. (Those are the Weight Watchers given slush fund that you're supposed to be able to eat during the week.)

I earned 99 -not a typo- activity points.

I gained 4lbs.

I am so fucking frustrated. And yes, it's real weight, probably from Mother's Day dinner, it'll take 6 or more weeks to come off. Just when I'd lost the weight from another "I used some of my 49 points and gained 5lbs" episode.

I am seriously considering just getting the gastric sleeve. I don't qualify at my current weight, and I don't want to gain weight for it, but I wonder if I could argue that I qualified at my top weight so they should do it now?

Have you ever had your thyroid tested?

I get exhausted just reading your posts about the outdoorsy stuff you do; I can't imagine doing all that and gaining weight. *hugs*

I haven't had my thyroid tested in a few decades. I should, really. I don't because, aside from easy weight gain and painful loss, I have no symptoms, and also because I'm ashamed to request a test. Too "fat person blaming their glands" for me. Which might be stupid, but there it is.... Sigh....
