General trend = down. Today's movement = up.
Two or three things have happened which could interrupt the downward flow. One is that my SIL died a week ago. All sorts of stress arising from that.
My little fella has been really poorly since Monday. All sorts of stress arising from that, disturbed nights, lack of sleep blah blah.
On the back of that something has inflamed my gut. Feels really bad. Could be food, could be stress, could be both.
I have eaten little out of the norm this week by way of new foods.
I usually eat a bit of whole coconut, maybe this week I had too much.
I added garlic. BIG mistake. I know I am particularly sensitive to alliums, but given that I have had none in the last three+ years I thought I might be ok with a clove of garlic a day. It's supposed to be really good and I love it. Nope, no way. Not only is my gut rebelling, my blood is so thin now that I bruise if something/someone touches me. I have rafts of bruises on my hips and shoulders where I sleep on my side, and my legs are covered in bruises where my knees lay over them. Lots more haematomas too, rather than just plain flat bruises. I don't like those, they worry me,and the hurt a lot more. My gut is likely upset with the garlic too, thankfully there has been no sign of bleeding.
The other thing I ate a little of was a smoked Polish sausage. Ah, that taste took me right back to my childhood..... sigh. Perhaps the poor gut just couldn't cope on top of the garlic onslaught.
Anyway, for one reason or the other, my innards hurt and I am heavier on the scales. I plan on working hard to reduce stress levels. Someone said raised cortisol can lead to weight gain. I understand that - it's an amazing hormone, overriding the insulin god, and promoting glucogenesis, so I could well be holding on to more water.
Little fella has a smile for me this morning and is deffo on the mend, singing his little heart out and being brazenly cheerful. Easy for him, he has slept; hard for me, still massively sleep deprived.
SIL's Funeral is in a little over a week. Plenty time for everything to settle.
No more garlic or Polish sausage and we will find the status quo.

Sorry for your loss. Stress totally screws up your weight loss program. You eat at different times, you make poor choices and it messes with your sleep. Better luck next weigh in.

Sorry for the loss of your SIL. I think all of the things you mentioned contribute to going up a bit....don't stress over it, hang in there. Are you on blood thinners? When I was first put on them I bruised very easily and even had one spontaneous bleed at my neck. Still bruise fairly easily but it's gotten better.

Thanks lads, appreciate the support. Of course I am not delighted, but it's not without reason, so I'm ok. Making sure I stay on course.... watching the killers. Yup, am on DAPT since August '15, and I bruised very easily anyway, I noticed a big change with a small amount of garlic. I reckon my blood is naturally thin. Last summer I was still chasing and shearing sheep bigger than I was, with 2 x 99% blockages in my LAD>.. though of course I didn't know that at the time....and NO heart attack!!! :) Can't wait to get off the DAPT so I can race around like a loony with my sheep again..... bless them!

Sorry to hear you are having such a difficult time, and sorry for the loss of your SIL in particular. Stress certainly wreaks havoc with our physical well-being. Take care of yourself, and I hope your daughter is okay. Was SIL's death expected?

Thanks Heidi, not exactly expected, but not a huge surprise, she was CF and had a really bad infection. She's always shaken them off in the past this one was too much. The rest of the family were sure she'd pull through, I am afraid I didn't, not this time. Hubby has taken it badly, hence the stress.
The lad is bouncing around like a loony today, he's fine now, and really enjoying feeling well. I haven't yet recovered from being up till gone 3 a.m. again..... feels like midnight already.
I am sure things will settle down soon, hope so anyway!

Sorry, I misunderstood SIL as 'son in law', but it's 'sister in law'. That's a horrible disease, poor thing. Hope you sleep better tonight.
