6 month check up

May 19, 2009

and it's not good.  I'm anemic, my PTH is elevated and Vit D is low.  So that means I'm leeching calcium from my bones.  Nice.  And my vit A is low too.  My B12 is too high.  That seems to be the only thing I absorb.  And I am in a stall.  NUT thinks it's because I'm not eating enough, I skip meals and my diet is not up to par.  I should be getting about 1200 cal, I'm not.  I should be incorporating protein, fruits, veggies and starches in my diet.  I don't.  And I'm a slow loser.  Yeah, but I'm doing good with my B12.  I guess that's the cause of my tiredness and general disdain for life right now.
Sad thing is I take my vits daily.  I guess I just don't absorb them.  So now I'm on super doses of vits.  My goal for the next month is to switch up my exercise to break this stall, increase my food calories and eat a more balanced diet.  Wow.
If you are reading this and slippin on the vitamins, please correct it now.  Apparently it's hard to fix deficiencies especially the vit A one.  And since I'm so young(hahaha) I need to correct that calcium things like now or be a hunch back in 40yrs.  Oh and if you like your teeth too.  Apparently you need calcium to keep your teeth in your mouth. LOL
