I have spent the whole day at the dr. office .Last night, yesterday wasn’t a good day for me. my legs were swollen and My chest felt like it was going to cave in and I was tired just tired of feeling like this.

 so today i got up and made a dr. app. and they did a heart thinging and my heart is fine but the results of my EMG wasn’t good. It showed up that I have a bulging disk.Now I have to go to the dr again and get an MRI done to see how bad things are and go from there. It makes me feel better to know that I don’t have heart problems but back problems. I’m not to sure about getting on the elliptical I forgot to ask so I’ll just go for walks.

By the way I’m still doing good on my eating.

I have done great on my eating for three days now and the scale is going up. I know that I have been holding water on and off in my legs but i’ve gained 5 lbs in one day. It is so hard to stay on track when you see the scale going up and you know that you’ve been doing all the right things. I am soo frustrated right now!!!I’m not going to eat but I am going to bed !  so I don’t eat plus i am bummed out.Prayers please!Thanks

I just did 20 minutes an my eliptical, burned 300 cals, and I feel great. I’m not kidding the first 5 minutes killed me but then well…my legs kinda went numb and I just kept going. I’m glad I did cuz I burned 300 cals.

  I’m so undecided about the diet to do. The more I read the blogs about the beach diet the more it sounds like it’s for me. I mean if I eat ,like for instance a few pieces of pizza, about an hour later if that , i’m ready for a nap. the same with like donuts.Thats why I choose to say away from it. I’ve been checked for sugar and I’m good. but it does run in both sides of my family. I’ve been doing wieght watchers and It’s good but I thinkI need a change. Any one have any suggestions?  

Hello to all my friends!And to those who are here to just read.

Well I went today and had my EEG done and my kidney doppler done, and i am ready for bed.The dr. said that i have nurve damage in my left lower side. I will find out more later.Maybe that is were the swelling comes from.I’m gonna live!!!!

  The weather here is beautiful!!!!I think it is in the 70’s. I’m gonna go walk and clean the car so you all have a great day…

Yesterday is gone and today is a new day! I feel swollen and fat from the mess I created yesterday(over eating) but today is a new day. I have already drank two bottles of water and I did 22 minutes on my eliptical, I burned two hundred cals. I am soaked in sweat and I feel GREAT!!! I’am goin off today to buy a South Beach book and maybee join all you lovely ladies on the beach…

I feel good….nanana

I feel good …Naanan

You all have a great day and thanks for all your support!

Ya, the goals I set for today,  sat right here on the blog. I think when I walked away from the computer this morning I left all my enttentions behind. All I did today was eat! Not a good day.. This medicine for my legs (Lyrica 50mg, and Darvacet) makes me feel discombobblated. My mouth is dry. I’ve not eaten anymore since about 5:00 but geez what I ate before that could hold me over for a day or two. The Doctor said to keep taking the meds that my body needs to get used to them but in the mean time, I need to fight the eating. I’m gonna keep a bottle of water near by so I will drink water instead of putting food in my mouth.

  I’ve been thinking of trying the South Beach Diet. I’m gonna go get the book and read it over. I think I need something new.

 Hey, my legs feel pretty good too.The left one is still swollen some but I can’t feel the pain anymore.I guess the meds are doing something other then making me feel silly.I’m gonna do the eliptical even though I ate the world today.Might make me feel better.

You all have a nice night.

O.K. went to the doctor today and she still is running alot of test on my leg pain and the swelling. but the good news , she gave me something for pain and I lost 3 lbs. As of tomorrow I am gonna stick to my points with weight watchers, and get on my eliptical even if it is only a few minutes. I’ll have to try the leg out. But i’m trying to have a positve attitude.

  The past few weeks have been very down for me cuz of the pain and the swelling ,I didn’t come to the site much but i’ve been back the past few days and I know that reading the blogs and the encouraging words of all my friends here has helped me feel better. Thank you all.

Well, what do you do when you are all ready to change the way of eating and exercising, but you body wont let you. I have still been doing good on my eating but for the exerciseing.I just can’t do it.My body wont let me. My mind wants to but my legs are still swollen and now they are so painful, down to the bone. It takes everything I have to work, after my 8 hrs I can barley walk. Last night I had to take pain pills and put ice packs on my  swollen ankles. The dr is still testing for several things.Still taking 40 mg of Lasix a day. I have my new eliptical in my dinning room and can’t even use it.How frustrating….

   Any one have any ideas???I’m getting depressed. Thanks for listening.Till next time…everyone have a great day

ALL pity set aside! Today is a new day-This is the day the Lord has made, I will be glad and rejoice!!!! I give my swollen legs up to God . I will do as the dr. says and not worry any more, now is time to persevere.

I did 20 minutes on my eliptical this morning. I burnt 200 something cal. I feel good. I thought I was gonna die after the first 5 min. but i kept on going. Now i’m going to spend the day with my sister and my new nieces. She addopted two girls. one is 2  and the other 4. They are here from virginia until tuesday. so until next , you all keep on keep’n on.

I’ve been struggling with myself. I haven’t payed attention to anything that i’ve been eating and I haven’t been exercising either. I’ve just been feeling sorry for myself. I’m tired of having fat ankles. My leg is still swelling up and the dr don’t really know why.My body is retaining water to the point were my skin just itches. I told you all I got an eliptacal for my b-day .Well I decided to come out of my pitty closet and learn to deal with it the best I can. I’m gonna live each day as if it my be my last.

 I’ve learned that I can’t skip my water pill before school, cuz last week by the time I got home my chest and left arm was feeling funny and my leg was as big as my head. I took my water pill and for the next two hours all I did was pee.Talk about loosing wieght fast. I wiehed myself before the water pill and two hours later….I lost 8 lbs. It is so frustrating. so now I get up extra early to take pill soo i’m almost peed out before school.

 anyway.my eliptical is now together and I’m gonna get on it.Weight watchers sent me a post card and a coupon to come back.It is so hard to pay to get weighed when you hold water.Please keep me in your prayers and wish me happy changes.
