Janet, I'm sorry that your arm is bothering you again. I'd ask the doctor about your shot area......I had a tetanus shot once that did that......made a knot in my arm and it took a long time for it to go away but it eventually did. You've had yours for a long time though so it probably needs looked at.
Judy, you're doing great on your diet!!! I'm really encouraged on mine because I have friends that are doing it and have done really well. They've been helping a lot on what to eat and what not to eat. I weighed yesterday at the doctor's office and I had lost a pound........BUT I had also taken my shoes off!!!!! Oh well!!!!
I had another test yesterday and should get a call either today or tomorrow on the results. I think that this one is going to show some problems.......we'll see, I guess!!!
Glen knows that I've been going in for tests but I haven't been telling him everything that I've found out. He's really bad at talking to everyone and I'm just not ready for him to start talking about me with everyone about my health. He doesn't see a problem with it but it bothers me. There's just some things that don't need to be talked about with everyone!!! I just keep telling him that it's blood sugar and cholesterol problems but it's actually a little more than that. I'm not worrying too much about it yet.......at least until the doctor says that I need to. I'm trying to lose weight and follow what she's saying for now. Getting old sucks!!!!!!!!!
Gayle, take your own snacks with you. Take some dip and veggies and some diet bars or something that you can eat and not feel guilty about. A dip that I like is a package of Knorr soup mix (or Lipton vegetable soup mix) mixed with 1 cup of mayonaise and 1 cup of sour cream. This is great with veggies or especially with pretzels!!! You can use the fat free or light stuff for this too. A week is a long time to try to do good though!!! Good luck!!!!
