Where Did The Days Go?

Wow life has been on the fast forward button! I have been terrible at keeping my weight off. Luckily my losses haven't been totally affected. I have managed to stay in the 140-145 lb range in my weight and only gain a few inches. It has been so wet and rainy outside my motivation to exercise has been minimal. I would really like to go another round on HCG, but maybe trying the homeopathic drops instead. Once I get my life into a more routine manner I can research it more.

Can't Catch A Break

After two days of throwing up from pain killers I thought everything was golden... until Friday night! I ate dinner and the right side of my neck started to hurt. I go look in the mirror to find that my neck and face are swollen. I am not allergic to anything so I was really confused. I could feel the gland under my jaw was really hard and enlarged. So I went to the ER right away. The wait was FOREVER. The swelling started to go down so I just gave up and went home without being seen. The next morning I ate breakfast and BAM the swelling started again. It's hard to chew, swallow, and breath. The pain is unbearable! Yesterday I went to urgent care only to find out that they couldn't do anything for me. I have to wait until tomorrow when I can see my oral surgeon. The doctor thinks something is wrong with my gland since they removed the duct under my tongue. Seriously ready to start feeling better:-(

Feeling Better

So I feel a lot better. The new pain medicine doesn't make me constantly throw up. I am still about 5 lbs above LDW. My newest thing is not to focus on the numbers though. More on how my body looks and clothes fit. I would like to start working out more once I am fully healed. I ate actual food today (since I have been living off pudding the last few days). I am trying to eat healthier since I was leaning towards my old habits after my vacation. So far I had cereal, an apple with peanut butter, and a salad. Tonight is chicken, green beans, and mashed potatoes (only a little of the those). Hope you are all losing well!

Sick

I had more oral surgery on Monday. I had to get glands sent to the lab. Hopefully there is nothing wrong with them. They prescribed Vicodin for the pain. Well this girl's body was not having it! I have been throwing up for the past two days. Nothing would stay down. So I had to call the doctor to get different medicine. So with all the strain from vomiting my mouth still hurts. Ugh! With no food and barely any water, I feel like crap. Luckily the new medicine seems to be working a little better so I am eating pudding. Oh happy day!

Forever Unpacking

I've been floating 6 lbs above my LDW for awhile now. I HAVE NOT been eating very well. I need to get myself together! So today I am taking a piece of paper and writing down all the things I need to add to my new routine to lose a little of this excess baggage, haha. Now that I am home again my exercise routine is little to nothing. Moving into a new place takes forever! My mind has been so focused on getting settled into this apartment that everything else is on the back burner. Hope you are all doing well!
