Whew!! It has been a while!! I didn't fall off the face of the earth, even though it seemed like it. I had some issues I had to tend to. But now I'm back!!
I have gained 41 pounds back, due to 2 rounds of prednisone, winter, and my own fault. Also to the fact that since I have had all my teeth extracted, I ended up eating everything I had eliminated from my diet. Sheesh.
Since my last journal entry, I had the bottom teeth pulled. I love fresh veggies, but you (me) just cant get anywhere with a carrot stick with no teeth!! Or lettuce, fresh spinach, or cauliflower...ugh!! I had to eat everything cooked to death, and mushy. I did manage to eat pizza, so all the breads, and starches were back. I was so tired I couldn't stand it!! Still am, as I'm just now getting back to salads, and cucumbers!
I went to my other doc and got a physical and am back to start again!! Lets see how long it takes me to lose that gained 69 pounds to get me to 200!! Thats my new starting goal. I had already lost 75, gained back 41 and now starting over!
I finally got my teeth in February. Boy is this an experience! I had to learn how to talk and eat again..lol!! I still get a little muffled talking, and I can eat crunchy stuff and carrots and lettuce again!! Now, if I can just keep these dumb things in my mouth without a ton of denture adhesive I'll be stellar!
Hope everyone has been doing well, and I'll check up on you all, and I hope I will get on here at least once a day again! I missed everyone!!
Keep up that great work, and I'm back on here rooting for you!!
