gilliansings's Journal, 13 June 2014

Today was my long-awaited physical. I started the day off by inadvertently getting up an hour early (5:30 instead of 6:30). I had no idea until after I had showered, dressed, and fed the dogs. I couldn't even take advantage of my extra time with a nice, leisurely breakfast because I was FASTING for my bloodwork, lol.

Anyway, the doctor's scale showed about 4 lbs. higher than my home scale, which is about how it's been in the past.

I don't know my vital signs or blood work results yet, but I am still excited for those to be looking much better.


The highlight was my doctor walking in and saying, "Wow. You've lost 25 lbs. since your last physical! You look great! How did you do it?"

We had a nice long chat, which is unusual for him. I didn't really have any health issues to bring up, so it was just casual.

I had my mammogram and blood work and then went shopping at the Macy's 1-day sale (I know, they are ALWAYS having those!) I finally bought myself a pair of work khaki's in my size so I don't look like a total slob anymore. I also bought two nice tops (size medium, YAY) and pajama bottoms.

Due to my early start today, I was yawning all afternoon at work, but I survived. Have a great weekend everyone! I know I will :-)
