Yesterday was spent taking DH's aunt to the Dr in Huntsville. It's really an all day procedure as she always has to have blood work done after she's seen him. I found out once we got all the way home that she was supposed to have a urine test but she didn't have to pee so she didn't do it. AARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!! She can't have her surgery if her levels aren't where they are supposed to be. Thank goodness I have the Dr's number and they know me. I will call and see if they can call or fax orders for the urine test somewhere closer. I also have to call her cardiologist and see if it's time for another visit. I already told her that I was going to make the appointment for the same day as her dibetic appointment if it's time.
She was no help with food yesterday, either. She wanted egg mcmuffin for breakfast and an original chick-fil-a for lunch. Lots of bread, grease and fried! I did better but it's still fast food yuck. I weighed this morning and was down 2 lbs from Wednesday. I'll take it.
I signed up for another weight loss site, too, to see what it was. I was bombarded with info from iChange. Seems that they want you to PAY, up to $130 a month, for access to a nutritionist who will make your daily menus and monitor you. I think that I will pass....
Happy eating and happy weekend to all!
You should have gotten her to drink a big bottle of water. What a pain. If you're trying to avoid gluten. Chik-fil-a has a nice menu online with good choices and really is not a bad place to eat. McDonald's forget about it - unless you are eating gluten then the egg McMuffin is the best choice. You had said they were wanting you to avoid gluten but if you are going to do that you have to totally give it up because a crumb could have as big an impact as a slice of bread. I think gluten was the reason I wanted to eat all the time too. My appetite has been a lot easier to control. I finally found some good bread at the health food store in the freezer section. It's millet. It still has to be toasted but it's good. Good luck with everything. |
