Congrats, Windsparrow! Also, it is so nice to see your font.
PCP didn't yell at me! He was very pleased with my weight loss and BP, and generally supportive of the health choices I am making. I mean we are talking 30 pounds in 6 months, which is so absurdly slow and frustrates me to no end. But ya know if I am down another 30 in the next 6 months that would be cool. Of course he wants me to have a variety of tests, but that is generally how he rolls, so I agreed to about half of them. Don't want him to think I'm easy or something.
Laura that’s more than a pound a week, which is amazing! Go you!
Thanks, I hadn't actually thought about it that way. I just want it to be 2 lbs a week. Pout.
Laura, I've always read that losing weight more slowly means you're more likely to keep it off, compared to people who lose it quickly. It's not as exciting, but in the long term it's pretty good.
No major side effects from shot #2; I slept 12 hours last night and feel just a bit run down today, but this is nothing like the side effects from shot #1. I expect I'll feel back to normal tomorrow. Fair trade for those sweet, sweet antibodies.
Andi that is awesome!! You rock!
Fair trade for those sweet, sweet antibodies.
Ain't that the truth! I was just tired after the 2nd shot. May have just used it as an excuse to nap.
Yes, my doctor feels slow but steady is the way to go. Sigh.
Laura, you are doing great! You are making good choices, and it will pay off.
Thanks, all. I am happy to be home.
I also love the work I do. I love learning how to do it better, I love knowing that as I learn, I do better by the people I support.
It is such important work that you do, WindSparrow. The people you care for are so fortunate, and deserving, to receive your compassionate care.
It's Friday, and June already. How is this year going by so quickly? I remember Mom saying that the years are like a toilet paper roll in that they go faster and faster as you get older. Well, thanks for being right again there mother.
⭐ Toss the confetti and celebrate Dana's birthday today! ⭐ I do hope it is the very best year.
