Fighting

Weight - 236.0

I definitely feel like I am fighting for every ounce.  I hate it.

I finally got to the endocrinologist. I am not happy. He basically tried to whisk me in and out figuring that because my levels were "normal", I would be in and out. He didn't even ask how I was feeling other than the cursory greeting, with which I replied "like crap".  (When my levels are where they currently are, I have historically felt like crap. I need my levels a little lower to feel my best, which we have discussed, but he seemed to have forgotten.) I had to actually say "hold on a minute" to get him to stop whisking me out of the room and actually listen to me. I had to BEG to try adding in a medicine, but not until after I had to suffer through a lecture about how my thyroid isn't the cause of all my problems and I really need to have more tests, which he wouldn't order.  All in all, it was a poor appointment.  I think if he had been willing to just talk to me, I might have felt better about the whole thing.  Needless to say, it is time for a new doctor.

(I did take the medicine this morning and I have noticed a huge uptick in energy and focus, we'll see if that is just because I know it should help or if it is actually helping.)

Bummer

Weight - 237.6 lbs

What a bummer.  I ate well, exercised, etc. and I am down 0.2 lbs.  I am sure that PMS is contributing, but this sucks.

And I am back

Today's weight - 237.8

Boo

But not unexpected.  I have strong suspicions that my thyroid is off.  Plus, let's be honest, I haven't been good at all about my eating.

All I can do it get back at it.  And get my thyroid checked.
