Knee is better

I’m thinking it was the crappy sandals I dug out to wear.
I waited too long to get sandals @ WalMart for the summer (because it’s still not really warm here yet!) and now they had nothing left in the ladies’ section. So instead I got 2 pairs of men’s sandals, aka mandals.
They are both brown [...]

I’ve lost 15 pounds swimming!

But I think I effed up my knee. Feels like meniscus or tendonitis. I have to make an appt to see what it could be & get it fixed. In & out of cars as well as up & down stairs is quite painful as are lateral moves with the knee. Maybe I’m kicking wrong?
The [...]

I’ve lost 10 pounds in a month!

I have been swimming 1-4 nights a week, and watching my food pretty closely.
My swim buddy & I are planning on stepping it up by going 4-5 nights a week. I have found 2-3 swimsuits I can wear, so I won’t have to worry about them wearing out too soon.
I’m back on the study medication [...]

I lost 6 pounds!

And feel like I am on my way. My friend A is swimming with me 3x a week, then my friend K said she would work out with me at least 2x per week. I want to lift, she is thinking machines, or maybe the other way around. Any way you slice it, I think [...]

Swimming again!

I have finally found a workout buddy. She is coming swimming with me at my gym. We swim for 45, then take a sauna for 10. Will have to check with my dr about the sauna due to the blood pressure.
Hope everyone else is having a great week!

grapefruit is awesome.

I’ve had one every day for lunch this week, with my meal. YUM.
The clinical trial will continue in the next few months. For another year. We are waiting on the FDA as usual.
I was able to get the money they gave to everyone else. It was not considered a conflict of interest by my employer, [...]

Not dead, I promise!

Will elaborate later, no computer @ hm for last 3 weeks. Something about the ceiling caving in, etc.
Down to 335. Yay!
Clinical trial not going on right now. Pretty freaking sweet to have an actual grapefruit.
Hope everyone else is doing well. xoxox

Questions about the clinical trial answered

I was born with polycystic kidney disease. My grandmother has a kidney transplant when I was 7 months old. My father’s transplant was last Halloween. In our family, you need a new kidney when you’re 50, when you have this disease.
So. After being diagnosed, I went through your usual why me? and self-pity and defiance. [...]
