Day 8

It’s been over a week since I actually started recording my progress and I’m feeling great!!  I went to the doctor today and before I get any further, they weighed me and I went from 225 to 222.8… so I’m down 2.2 pounds!  I’m so proud!  I am now also being put on thyroid medication because I have an underactive thyroid.  I’m SO glad I went back in to talk to a new doctor, I *love* Dr. Parker and I wish that I could keep her as a doctor even after I’m done with school.  She was very comforting when telling me my problem, and said that there was nothing to worry about and that what I have is treatable.  As far as having any kind of bad issues with my health, this is the best one I could have!  Haha.  So I started the therapy today, I have to take a pill a day probably for the rest of my life.  But if it makes me feel better, I’m so down!  She also said that I can expect some weightloss and I can’t tell you how happy that made me feel.  I know that I’m in this for my health, but I’d like to see the numbers on the scale gradually move downward to the 150s (PLEASE!)

On another note, I just finished my paper with an hour to spare… I’m so good like that.  I plan on cleaning my room tonight before I go home tomorrow.  I love going home, but in a way it’s really bad for me because I never get my exercise in.  Chelle, we *have* to exercise together this weekend!!!  No joke! :D

Until tomorrow ladies, STAY STRONG, we can do it!!!
