Before After

Life in General

So yesterday was the dr appt.  I mistook the whole 27 lbs thing...  since i saw him I lost 13 lbs...  which for me is GOOD.  He said he was VERY impressed and that he would be happy with 1-2 lbs a week.  Oh, and his scale said I was at 236 when mine says 235 so just 1 lb off...  that's alright..  as long as I know.  I also talked to him about my excessive water drinking (160-190 oz a day!) and he is having lab tests done to see if I'm diabetic.  We did those tests already in June...  but I've been drinking that much water since August...  I don't know if something creeps up like that, that quickly but we'll find out.  I also have an xray to schedule since my foot hurts so badly.  It's been like this on and off for 3 years now and getting a little old.  Kinda hard to excercise when afterwards you feel like you have to sit with foot propped up and ice on it for 2 hours.

On other news, I'm trying to work out with DH about taking the dogs to school.  They are in sore need of obedience classes and I want to be able to walk with them and ENJOY it.  Instead of worrying about how far they will pull me.  In a way that's a good thing, forces me to walk a little quicker, but then I hate it because by the time I'm done my arms are sore.  So school would be good for them.  I don't like the feeling of my arms being pulled out of their sockets!  They are good dogs though, six month old labs who really just want to please us.  I just don't know how to train them to get that way.  I know they need walking daily (as do I) I just dread it because they won't behave.  So hopefully this will help BIG TIME!

Otherwise it's been an easy going weekend for me.  Just like I like it.  DH ran into Susanville to pick up medicine (a hand cream for a sore on my hand that won't go away and my appetite suppressant.)  I've been working on laundry, slowly getting to done while playing my new favorite video game.  (don't worry I don't play all the time..  I'm liking it for now, but I'll be bored with it soon.) 

We've been talking about a new church and we'll go either tomorrow or next week.  Not sure just yet, but I'm excited for the prospect of somewhere new, and perhaps this one will have people I can identify with! 

I hope everyone's weekend is going great! 

God Bless!
