Today was a very rough day. Yesterday I went to the doctor and came out with some new diagnoses. They are fixable issues but still I am bummed. It seems like I have been falling apart every year I am getting older. Yes I am trying to fix that now but in the back of my mind I am thinking am I too late? I have high cholesterol which I have to take a pill and may have to take a pill for the rest of my life. Then I have vitamin d deficiency which makes me groggy and cranky. At least that is what I was reading. I also have the gene which gives me a higher chance of blood clots and stroke. So baby asprin daily for that. For rest of my life I am going to be on some kind of med. I am heartbroken but to hear it is genetic is reassuring. I am going to continue to fight this and lose the weight to give myself a better chance. Bob and I had a morning date and my heart was not in it. I forced myself to exercise for 41 minutes today and I could tell my heart was not there but I did it. Every day will get easier. I just have to be smart and listen up and continue to push.
Today was a bit about comfort food.
Breakfast: Oatmeal, orange juice and hard boiled egg.
Lunch: Bean burrito with carrot sticks
Dinner: Meatloaf made from ground chicken and one egg white, half baked sweet potato, steamed veggies and a very slin slice of french bread.
Snack: Yogurt with apple later.
Drunk about 70 ozs of water too.
I can be strong and keep going. Just have to remember the big picture. My family and my life.
Great job!! You can totally do this!
