    Day/Weight/Comment
    08/03 …..190.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

    08/14 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW ) The last few days have been such a whirlwind of work surrounding my outside renovations that I don’t even know where I stand at this point. I am truly not even sure if I’ve done good or bad and I don’t think I have the heart to find out. It’s been grab and go, but less snacks so I’m a bit confused but today I chose to keep my head buried in the sand. Doctor appointment today so they will weigh me but it’s always higher in the afternoon and with all the clothes so it will not even reveal much, which is best right now with my current mental state. I will be going out to lunch with son after our appointments so tomorrow will now bode well due to likely sodium content of restaurant food. I may skip the weight until Friday. In the meantime, I’m in YOUR corner and am hoping for a great round for Everyone!

    08/15 -190.8- (Trend weight 190.3) While I’m impressed with my new family doctor’s credentials, I was not very impressed with him during the appointment yesterday. When I talked to him about the obsessive snacking and the food noise and cravings at night I asked him if there was anything that could help. Perhaps a medication that my insurance will cover. Something for OCD? Etc. etc. His advise to me is to just stop it. Just stop obsessing, stop bingeing, just β€œstop it”. Oh, how I wish it was that easy. Even a physical tip would have helped. A website, a book. Anything! I also expressed my concerns with the Lasix I’ve been put back on as one dr keeps taking me off of it to protect kidneys (endo), the other (cardiologist) keeps putting me back on. Family doctor said my kidneys should be okay as long as I drink enough water with it. But not too much since my heart is having a hard time pumping it through. So how much should I drink? He said β€œnot too much”. So what the hell is that amount? Damn, I’m in a rut right now. It feels like I just have a shoddy attitude and that I’m sinking over here. I’m going to do some online research today as my contractor is off to take his kids to his local fair in his county. I guess I’ll get the water answers the hard way. On the upside, my A1C was improved again. My weight was up by 3 pounds from 3 months ago. I thought it would be more. He said my A1C will get even better if I stop the night time snacking. No Shoot Sherlock! UGH!

    @_JeffreyD_ I am thrilled to hear of your clear biopsy! Such good news!

    @RichardHaw Kudos to your wife for golfing with you. I tried hitting balls once or twice years ago (when I was in my 20's) with my first hubby. I'm afraid I wasn't very good with the hand/eye coordination. Would I be better at it now (in my 60's)? Probably not. LOL I guess the main thing is that you are able to spend quality time together staying healthy. How wonderful!

    @SheilaBoneham of course that good boy got his credentials.
    @Jensmakingprogress Great Job! I get so inspired being on this journey with all of you.

    @deepwoodslady I’m sorry you are not being heard by your Dr. I’m surprised that he didn’t recommend a therapist or some kind of mental health professional since you are describing feelings of being overwhelmed and out of control. Those feelings just happen to be centered around food.
    Sometimes there is a medication that can help give you some space to process life. I’m sure a qualified professional could help you sort that out while taking your medical history into account.
    Please continue to advocate for your health and well being.
