Today's temperature high was 69°F at 12:05am! It was all downhill from there. By the time I was done at work it is in the 40's. The girls got to stay home but I had meetings all day. Melissa does a great job at keeping things fun. If not for her, I dare say it would have been a nearly miserable day.
I had a doctors appointment this week and I got loaded up with drugs. When you're young you take drugs only when you're really sick, when you're old you take drugs to keep you healthy. I got thyroid stuff for the morning, an anti-diabetic something to have at dinner and my cholesterol lowering pills for before bed. I'm not excited about all this, but the goal is to see if it helps with lowering my weight and then reassessing later.
After taking up the extra drugs the only adverse effects I felt were leg cramps and I'm not there's a connection. I went to yoga tonight and got some great stretching in. I think I was just sore from yoga this weekend or maybe from sitting all day instead of my normal run around. When I told my doctor about my detox diet, she didn't seem the least bit concerned. I'm down 5 pounds from my last visit (not sure when that was) and losing more will only help my health. While she didn't think I needed to go gluten free, my doctor said it would be helpful to lessen my carb load. As for my feet, she did not offer any drugs to help (although I asked for a cortisone shot). She suggested I purchase a special sock and insisted if I'd just lose weight, it'd help.
