amie8692's Journal, 27 Jun 19

I need to take some time to say hi.
it's been about a month since I weighed in.
in that time I've continued with my physio. results are sporadic. It helps but I dont really feel it's a long term solution. My spondylolithesis is a long term problem. the vertebrae are fractured and the discs are degenerative. And yet no surgery scheduled. not even a referral to a back specialist. changing doc's as he doesn't seem to want to do anything but push pain meds which I refuse to take. I feel like if your pushing codeine and morphine on a person than maybe alleviating the problem may be a better solution than getting your patient addicted to pain meds.
so on that note have been frustrated and feeling helpless thus the long absence.
on a good note my daughter had a beautiful 8 lb surrobaby girl.
shes healthy and gorgeous and her daddies are ecstatic.
been maintaining on keto but not really losing any weight. I truly believe that pain and stress and trauma make your body hold weight.
has anyone any experience with this?
At any rate Namaste friends have a glorious day.

Sorry to hear about your pain Amie. Glad you are maintaining though. I do not have personal experience but I have seen many people say that stress makes cortisol rise and cortisol hinders weightloss. Happy to hear about the healthy baby girl. Namaste!!!

Like Liv001 says, high cortisol levels really mess with your body chemistry for weight loss. Maybe get out to support groups, socialize, and see how others like yourself cope.

Thanks so much for the input . I suspected as much in regards to the stress and holding weight. But wasn't completely sure. I really appreciate you guys.

every time i hear about a pill-pusher of a doctor makea me wonder about their own medication habits.. i dont blame you for looking elsewhere. here's to good doctors who are interested in healing.. maintenance with meds is great (thank God for modern medicine) but i prefer the docs who are looking toward fixing the issues that are causing the symptoms. they're the good ones. 😉 i hope you find one of those.
