Well, hello there you, my two loyal readers. I thought I would put up an entry today being that I am not going to be around tomorrow for my birthday. *squeals like a schoolgirl* I also wanted to give y’all a progress report about the gym/weight loss thing, so I have added a new category called (ironically enough) Progress Report. Every month I get a print out of how I am doing weight-wise and inches from the gym, so I’ll scan them and you can take a look (as well as keep up with me) at how I’m doing. Not to mention, it is proof that I am going to the gym for anyone that might doubt that out there. *laughs*
So, before I progress with the progress, I have to tell y’all that I started the week out really shitty. :/ I had an appointment with my doctor on Monday for a follow-up on the fingernail that I had removed back in May, my ankle as well as a couple other things. Well, my fingernail is almost completely grown out after only three months of it being removed. I was surprised because I was told that it would be like six months. Needless to say, my doctor was damn surprised as well.
So, onto my ankle. As you, my two loyal readers, know, I sprained my ankle back in October and found out in January. Well, my ankle isn’t healing. :/ Not only that, but the fucker is still swollen and has swollen up into my calf as well. :/ So, I now have to wrap my damned ankle way the fuck up into my calf when I go to the gym in the morning. Unfortunately at this point, there isn’t much that can be done about it. Have to let nature take its course… no matter how fucking long and slow that is. :/
Next… I have to carry my ass (and the rest of me as well) to have some blood work done on Monday. My iron levels were a little low. So, yet again, I am going to be poked for a few vials of blood. Ya know, back in the day I would be pissed, but in light of the last few years, I have to say that it doesn’t even bother me anymore. Okay, that is kinda a lie… It bothers me, just not like it would bother most folks.
Alright, onto my weight… Well, when I was weighed on Monday at the doctor’s office, I weighed in at 315. I was not a happy camper. If this was the case, that means that I had only lost like one pound since my weigh-in at the gym in July. I was on the verge of tears by the time my doctor came in to see me. Okay, so (paging Cher Horowitz), I had my weigh-in this morning at the gym and I weighed in at 310. Yes, folks, I lost five fucking pounds in the last three days. Water weigh, I know, but I am not going to complain. I have to say that I went off my water intake for a few weeks, so that may have contributed to the not moving of the scale. I increased my water intake from 33oz. to 64+oz. a day. This seems to have made a difference. I am hoping though that I can have a significant move in the scale by the time I have to go see Dr. K. in October for my five month check-up. Okay, so here is the progress report for July and the one for August.
Well… now that that is all out of the way, I have to tell you that Madden Man and I celebrated our six year anniversary yesterday. *does Snoopy dance* Six years that some days feel like an eternity in hell. *laughs* No seriously though, while I was at the gym, Madden Man and T.T. went to the market and got me an anniversary card. I didn’t even see them pass by the gym while I was there. :/ Anyway, when I got home, the card was waiting for me on the bed. I had an awwww moment. *laughs* Needless to say, nookie was had and damn if I wasn’t happy about that… Oh yeah, I never did tell y’all about the latest fiasco with my birth control…
Let me recap for you… I had my birth control changed from Ortho-Novum, in December due to the level of hormone making my have pain in my “girls”, to Ortho-Tri-Cyclen. The OTC made me a bitchX1000, so I was changed to Lybrel. Well, Lybrel didn’t work out either. ***TMI ALERT*** The Lybrel made me have a period, no period then two months (yes, I said two months) of serious spotting. :/ So now I am on Yaz and so far, it seems to be working out. So far… We shall see if it really works out.
Alright, well, if you are still reading, you deserve an award, but sadly, I have nothing other than my thanks for reading, so until next time…
