My last post was in May. I had lost 5 pounds. I didnt not what I weighed. My last appointment, I weighed 365. My entire body was swollen, and I was clearly retaining EVERYTHING. At todays appointment, I weighed in at 355. This is the lowest my weight has been in over a decade. (With the exception of when Glenn left two years ago. You cant count lows achieved from depression and stressed). We talked about how I no longer consider myself an over eater. I told her that my sweet tooth has taken a back seat for months now. I told her that my soap making business has been great for my health. Ive gone from being a couch potato to being a frog because Im constantly jumping up to melt base, pour into molds, wash molds....Im up and down all day long. I even want to walk now that the weather is cooler. Sadly though, this minimal amount of activity has caused pain in my left knee. A doc wanted to do exploratory surgery in 2000, but no one ever had JUST ONE knee surgery back then. And I was too young to agree, and my home had stairs. Now at 45, Im willing to consider it. I also dont have 22 steps to mount. If its necessary, then Im ok with the idea now. There are a few steps I wish to take before that happens.
