life falling apart!

Jan 11, 2010


Hi,

I have not been posting on a very consistent basis- shame on me!

I have been losing my hair and what hair i have looks like doo doo,  i really hate the way it looks and there seems to be nothing that I can do to help it.  And of course that led me back to some very bad old habits-- I have introduced more carbs in my diet, and not the good for you kind.  I know that I should not have done that and I am trying very hard to get them back out of my diet and get back on track.  I am an emotional eater, and things have been very emotional - things between my husband and I have come to a head, and I think things are being worked out-  we will have to wait and see how they go,  they seem to be on the mend at this time.

He actually listened and heard what I was trying to say and didnt fly off the handle, it was a great feeling!  I had to learn to talk to him and tell him what I am feeling or hearing- it may not have been what he ment to say.  What a hard lesson for the both of us, we have been together for over 30 years, and things have been a certain way- not wonderful - for most of that time.

Along with the hair loss, the family issues, I have been having shoulder pain, and it has  been painful to do much of anything.  I have been going to physical therapy and it was helping, not so sure if it is now though.  I developed a lump on my right shoulder/ upper arm.  Just had an MRI on that and should find out the results this week. The orthopedic doctor basically said it will be one of two things- I will need surgery or a series of shots.  I dont like the sound of either one, but i have to get out of this pain.  It is interferring with my job and my hobby- I am not able to quilt like i would normally do- and that is where i go to lose my self.

A couple of good things have happened. 
            - I have lost a hundred pounds since my highest recorded weight- 262, I am now 161
            -   I am in a size 10-- my wedding dress is a size 13--  I weigh more now than i did when i got married but I am a smaller size- dont understand, but loving it
           -   I have been able to see my niece more- she turns four on 1/16-- she is a great kid and I love having her here.

Well thanks for listening

Hope you have a wonderful journey.

Kim
