Gaining 3.2 kg a Week

 Comments
Why do you think about gaining weight as a punishment for enjoying your food? We gain weight for multiple different reasons: it can be just some additional water, muscles or menstrual cycle or something else. Having chips once or twice a week is completely okay, don't be so strict to yourself, 500 grams is not a big deal!

The same happens to me too when I eat high sodium food late at night. It really doesn’t make me feel great physically the next day. Hoping today you shed the water weight with movement 👍

cherryna_what....ThnQ for your concern!! ♡
it is a combination of some pretty strenuous gardening yesterday and excessive sodium intake that caused the edema. I jokingly blamed it on that little bag of chips @ 2 a.m.😉
I really do have to be careful of my sodium intake because of my COPD, but when my body craves salt, as it did at 2 a.m., I do not deny it! My cravings are an indication that 'something' is lacking in my food intake.
B.T.W. I love your claws! Do they have a symbolic meaning for you or do you wear them as a fashion statement?

Oh, thank you so much! It's mostly fashion but I also like to think about them as a part of my armor. Like medieval armor, u know! ☺️☺️☺️

It’s ok Nadja. Don’t worry it’s something like treating ourselves. Don’t worry next time when you crave for something take sparkling water it definitely helps to keep your cravings away

I hope that edema subsides Nadja. I was/am a PSW and so many of my clients had this edema in only one leg and it never went down. Weird how it just affects one!! Gardening yes is surely tough on the aging body in many ways!!! Don’t you get sore all over from your gardening Nadja? I have just a little garden that I did on Friday and I have been walking like a mummy for 2 days now!! No exaggeration!!! 😂 I so admire your tenacity!!

Oh Mona....I am literally LoL'ing, picturing you walking like a mummy! I believe that I walk more like the chartoon character of the Hunchback of Notre Dame....🤣 My saviour is extra strength muscle relaxers!!
Although....my body is now getting conditioned to the daily work so I can stay out a little longer and sometimes...push myself a little harder!
My edema & insomnia are caused by my inhaler, which exccessive sodium intake can exacerbate...kinda caught between a rock and a hard place with that medication! but, it helps me breathe, so I'll suffer the inconvenience of 2 a.m. bing eating! 🥴
