wow...where to start.

I guess I wll start with my more recent weight gain. I gained 2 or so lbs when we were pregnant.  Then recently got a little deflate b/c I just couldn't eat regularly especially on our recent vacation. I could only eat dinner of solids and that was lucky. I still think I eat too much too fast for a band patient but I always have.  Also, I got to cut the sweets now that I am up 2 more lbs from before.  I knew all the cookies, sundaes, etc. would eventually keep up for me.  It's just been so stressful for us recently.  Though a chromosome of three 22s was lethat for our recent pregnacy is was unrelated to genes passed on...so good news is that we have no more risk of a genetic issue than anyone else in our age category.  All that worrying since vacation for nothing.  Also had to have a colonoscopy last Friday due to some abnormal tests during a recent physical. Turns out I only have an external hemroid and I need more fiber.  I'm so happy about a friend online that has become pregnant 8 weeks.  She has worked so hard and wants it sooo bad. Can't wait to hear her sonogram results.  

I have to say though I HATE getting filled and unfilled at Dr. Smiths. I could only go at 8:45 for a freakin 2 minute procedure.  I waited TWO and half hours.  It's like a half day thing every time you go in.  That's ridiculous.  I totally think that is bad office management.  Whoever runs my daughter's peditriacian office needs to run this one. I think the longest wait there was a half hour once.   I think they take advantage of everyones desperate attempt to lose weight. Now that I'm a cash  patient that pay for fills I'm going to research going somewhere else.   I complained at the last support group that I attended. I hoper Marcy passes that along. 

Summer starts officially for us today.  Tyring to give up those bad sweets and potentially my starbucks.  That would save at least 200 calories a day and that adds up over time. I try to justify by saying well it is nonfat milk that I need in my day anyways.  I usally get half the pumps of the syrup.  We'll see.
