My head hurts!  I’ve had cold symptoms off and on for about 2 weeks, and yesterday I started having sinus pressure.  Decided I’d better make a trip to the doctor to see if I could get some meds.  Well, $25 copay, and 15 minutes later I was told what I already new.  Sinus infection!  The doctor wasn’t even in the room for 5 minutes!  I guess I should be glad I never have a long wait at the dr. office.  So, I left with a prescription antibiotic and decongestant. 

 Because of the dr. appt this morning and running a few errands while I was out, I haven’t exercised yet today.  I’m not sure how much I can really do as my face really hurts when I move around too quickly.  I think I may just try to take a walk later on.  I think anything more than that would be to painful! 

Anyway, while at the dr. they weighed me, and I was only 209, fully clothed and with my shoes on.  So, either I’ve dropped several pounds already, or may scale is out of wack, because on Monday morning with nothing on I weighed 210.  I usually have my scale set 5 lbs. heavier, because I always weighed more whenever I went to the doctor, but I’ve never weighed in at the doctor and weighed less.  I’ve been thinking of getting a new scale, because the one I have now is about 10 years old and varies by a couple pounds whenever I step off and get right back on.  I thought something more consistent would be better.

 I’ve been trying to think of what to reward myself as I reach my goals.  I decided yesterday that when I lost my first 10 lbs, I’m going to buy myself the new Casting Crowns CD, that is being released on Tuesday.  I think I’ll buy myself  a little something for every 10 lbs.  I’m not sure what I’ll get when I reach my overall weightloss goal.  Maybe some new furniture.  We just moved into a new house and have 2 rooms that don’t really have anything in it right now.
