I weighed this morning before I had anything to eat. It looks like I may have gained a couple of pounds. But my stomach has been hurting some today, too. So I wonder if I may be retaining some fluid, which concerns me because of my kidneys. I guess I will wait and see how I feel by next week and decide then if I need to go to the doctor or not. Before all of this my back had been hurting for a while, too. Needless to say it has been very difficult to do much exercising, lately. I did get on the Ab Coaster Pro, though and tried to make myself exercise. My back hurt so bad that I had to quit. I will try again later today, if I'm not in too much pain. I really believe if I can manage to lose enough weight to do me some good, that I will feel much better. It definitely seems to be an uphill battle. I'm trying to lose weight and improve my health at the same time, which is not easy. I think for the rest of today I will try to eat only healthy foods. We'll see! If I do that, it might make me feel better by in the morning. Okay for now I think I will go eat a few grapes. Hopefully I will get on a better track, soon.
