Half - Way to My Goal!

May 03, 2009

Next Tuesday I will be six weeks out from surgery and as of today I am down about 46 lbs.  Based on my original goal of reaching 190, I am over half-way to that goal.  I have to wonder if I am losing too fast.  I continue to have problems with energy levels.  This has been compounded by my having an ear infection this past week and on anti-biotics.  Blood sugars hit 180's a couple of times but I am not surprised basedon the ear infection.  Blood pressure continues to be great if not a little low and I need to talk  to my PCP about going off medication completely.  Already dropped dosage twice.

I can still only eat a couple of ounces at a time and getting everything in is still a problem.  My medications in the morning are the toughest as i cannot eat for at least and hour after I take my meds and it seems I am behind all day in getting protein, water, and meds in.  I have added some extra carbs to try and help with the energy.  Despite these challenges, I am happy where I am hope things will improve energywise this comming week.
