Diet update...

Hola chicas!
Well today was a great day for my dr appt ladies, and alot of you are asking how I am doing this diet so I will tell it.
First off I have to loose weight for one i am fat, two I want to live to see my kids grow old and three my blood pressure is very high and the weight is making it worse. TODAY at clinic my bp was the best it has been in over a year 126/82. My dr about fell off her chair when she read the weight results, she made me stand up and hug her and just went on and on.. I have went down 24.2 lbs in 3 weeks and 4 days and clinic record is 5w 21 lbs so YAYY I hold the record!
So the diet is YES I am on adipex-p 37.5mg once a day, all it is a appetite suppresant so I never want to eat. I watch EVERYTHING that I buy and put in my mouth down to my chewing gum.
Now the dr put me on a 1200 calorie diet but then called the next day to tell me my tryglcycerides were high and to lay off anything white(bread, milk, taters, rice etc) and i thought I would DIE, them are my faves!
SOOO after talking with my dad who lost TONS of weight fast i decided to put the pills WITH the atkins diet. Ladies it is EASY. Basically I eat three things... MEAT, EGGS, AND CHEESES.
You can have up to 20 carbs a day but I am lucky if I put 10 in my body. you do this for a couple weeks of NO CHEATING and your body goes into ketosis, now mind you ketosis is not good if you are diabetic but for low carb dieters it wont hurt you. Once you go into that yu just add a few carbs, I am in ketosis now but still didnt add the carbs(bad I know but my choice).
Yes I am sick to death of meat, you can have ANY meat basically and grill it or bake it. I have found things to eat like chicken in a can with mayo(no carbs in mayo) that something fast but no bread! If you crave something sweet once in awhile sugarfree jello (0 carbs) and a tablespoon of cool whip(1 carb) does the trick. So like for dinner tonight..cube steak(eat all u want) green beans and I only eat a few like 5 beans LOL but 1/2 cup is 7 carbs and maybe some jello later. I chewed 2 peices of gum 1 carb each so u see i am FAR FROM my 25 I am now allowed.
I choose NOT to eat the carbs. IS this diet healthy, no probably NOT. You loose it fast and when you come off it if you go back to eating like you did yes it will come back on but another trick I have found is buy a smaller plate for you so when you go back to regular eating its mind of matter! If you fill your tiny plate up you will think you have TONS of food and be 'full' but if you take a normal dinner plate out and put a little food on it you make you rmind think your hungry..
Ok this is enough to start you, any questions ask. It is simple ladies and if I can do it anyone can. I am now from a size 18 pants to a 14 in less than month, how much motivation does one need????

My dr appt

Well I went to the dr yesterday and today LOL. I HATE copays! Anyhow yesterdays was because my hand keeps going numb and my fingers do too, so I went and he basically said I have carpel tunnel and I will eventually have to have surgery, i can try to put it off with some remedies but ultimatly it will have to be done.

Today i went to the internal med dr, weight loss specialist, and they done bloodwork and such. Anyhow they gave me my diet pills, some blood pressure meds ssince mine is borderline and the weight loss pills may drive it up a bit so to be safe than sorry gave me them pills. Said that once I loose the weight I should be able to go off the BP pills also. So she gave me a food list and then a 12oo calorie diet plan. Looks VERY easy and I am very determined to loose weight, I HAVE to if I want to be around to see my kids.

SO I am going to post every 2 weeks my new weight as incentive for me to loose weight so you all can see I am a fat ass and it will make me want to loose more if you all are keeping tabs on me HAHA!

So as of today I weigh 241, pant size 18 and shirt size 2x.

Evan's Neuro Appt.

I took Evan for his neurologist appt today.

The dr wants to repeat his EEG and compare it to his last one he had. He really doesn't seem concerned and said he believes Evan has a "? mannerism"(forgot the first word lol). Basically he said like some people get just so excited the do something weird like scream or whatever well Evan zones into it so much and just shakes. He observed him for awhile and checked him over and said his reflexes, mouth muscles, vision and hearing checked out great. He just thinks he will eventually grow out of it or he may do it for the rest of his life when hes stimulated to do so.

Am I ok with this answer? Not really. But I will wait for the new eeg and if ONE LIL THING has changed I will move forward. If it is the same then I will trust the dr's word. I did ask for a ct scan and the dr said he rather not because he doesn't think it is necessary.

So, we wait til may 14th for the eeg.

Nikki has headstart grad pics next week, they put them in cap and gown LOL. Make a huge deal outta it. Hope everyone is doing well!

Holy Deal!!

So this morning I got off work cause we are so slow at work this month, I go to the flea market.
I never go to these but decided why not I have nothing better to do. SOO i get to this guys lil stand of stuff and he has TONS of it and he says they bought all of Rite Aids inventory when they went ou of business, SO I look around and what do I find? Clear blue easy fertility monitors and sticks!! NOW some may say no big deal right, BUT us ladies KNOW these things are 199.99 EACH and they all have the price still on them and are brand new sealed in the celophane(sp). So I look at dates on strips all are in date and dont expire til 09 so I go ahead and ask how much that he wants for them, remember they have the 199.99 rite aid tag on them, and he tells me ohh are they worth 3 bucks?? WHATTTTTTTTTT 3 bucks???? So YUP you guesses it I bought all of them he had and guess what, they are going on ebay later this after noon HAHAHAHA.
So I had to share my deal with you all and if any of you are looking for one let me know I can make a deal with my fellow fertility sisters!!!
