So... my weigh-in at the new doctor was so bad I'm not recording it here. I decided to wait until I'm closer to the weight I was when I fell off the wagon before I put any numbers up here. On the other hand, my blood pressure was 108/60, which it hasn't been since before I hurt my back and broke my arm in 2006. My blood pressure was normally about 105/60 before I was so disabled and then it shot up to 160/75 -- and even though the doctor kept saying not to worry about it, that it would drop again as I recovered, I was really upset. My hope is that I'm now back to normal. But I go for bloodwork on Wednesday, and we'll see what the rest of my numbers look like. I am not hopeful.
And I'm struggling a little with the diet also. I am having days when I'm really hungry, and it seems to be related to when I am not able to control what I eat -- I mean, if someone else sets the menu. So today, I had to go to a luncheon, and the menu was quite odd, and the result was that I blew off a lot of calories, but didn't get the protein and fat I needed to fill me up - So I was just starved when I got home. Now I've ben trying to figure out how to get unhungry, without much success. Finally, I ate some leftover flank steak, and I'm starting to feel better. But this is really hard...
