Ottawa WMC tomorrow morning
3 month appt went well for the most part
For weight loss....I am doing ok. I only lost 11lbs last month which is on the low end of "normal" but thats fine with me since I can really see the difference in my clothing.
My bloodwork was great other than a potassium issue which means I need to drink a G2 a day now. She asked me if I ever saw stars or if it went black when I would exercise or stand up too fast and I was like....well ya but thats normal, isnt it?? ...she said...uhhh no its not. lol
Diet: I got to see the new dietitian, Leeanne, who looks like she is about 14 years old. She told me to try to add some more whole grains/carbs to avoid full blown hypoglycemia. I also didnt know that waking up at 4:30 or 5am positively STARVING wasn't normal either.....so I have tried melba toast, wheat stix and had added all bran buds to my greek yogurt....and all seem to be ok so far. Still can't eat bread so have to try to find alternatives. She wasnt too worried other than the extreme hunger issue (I liked it better when I didnt feel hungry at all) because she figures I am getting enough carbs through fruit and veggies.
Very low blood pressure. Its really low....like 90/60. But she never said anything about it so I am not concerned.
So ya...pretty good check up and only go back in 3 months!!! I hope to be under 200lbs by then!
