Weekly weigh in

Well I'm still gaining, but it is slowing down and more steady. After my 3 lb jump I was alittle bummed. I have been keeping up with walking at least twice a week, at a minimum. I'm starting to feel bigger and move slower. This isn't about how fast I can move though...it is just about moving in general.

So this week's official weigh in was 193.4...how I keep hitting that .4 everything I just don't know.

Weigh In

This week's weigh in was 192.4, and last week's was 191.4. So last week was a real shocker and this week wasn't as bad. But that is 4.4 lbs in two weeks. wow!



But overall since getting PG I have gained 15.6 from my lowest recorded weight and 12.4 from my weight just prior to getting PG. The overall picture isn't as bas and I thought it was for week 19 of my PG.



I didn't get any walking stickers last week...BOOO for me. So this week I need to get back into gear and walk on the new treadmill.



Happy Easter to all!

No News is GREAT News

So far I haven't heard from my Dr. office about my glucose test.

YIPPIE!!!!



I'm doing a BIG HAPPY DANCE. I don't know if this is really the end of this dance with G-D.



But a 3 month pass for now makes me happy.



Oh yeah, my weigh in this week was 188, so staying about the same and that is good news too.



I walked twice last week and the hubby and I worked out in the yard on Sunday. I need to get back on the treadmill this week. Tonight is the night. Watch Idol and walk a little.

Friday Countdown

Count down

I went in yesterday for my 1 hour glucose test. After the lab tech drew blood I asked about when I might hear something. She said "If it is bad news you will hear by tomorrow. In this case, no news in good news."

So I'm sitting here in fear of the phone ringing. Well not really, just anxious to see if the test will come back bad. If it comes back with high numbers, then I have to go back in the next 3 days (or so) and take the 3 hours test. That one really, really, sucks. If that one comes back bad (high sugar) then I get to visit the wonderful diabetes counselor. Then the real fun begans.

So I'm really hoping my phone DOES NOT ring today....

On a good note, since Monday, I have worked out every other day, so tonight is another work out night.

Weigh in

My weigh in this week was 188.6lbs. not wonderful, not horrible. I got 4 stars last week for walking 4 days and so far this week I have one, which is great because I am only on day #2. I walked for 20 mins last night.

This is the week of the big diabetes test. I am dreading it, but I only have so much control in it. My control comes once I'm diagnosised and I have watch everything I eat and exercise on a very regular basis. So wish me luck on Thursday ; )
