Sick, and...... total weight loss
Not that these should be together in the same post.
I caught the stomach bug which was circulating around work and my family. I have not had a regular day of meals since Monday. Since Tuesday- yesterday it has been eat, puke; eat, puke; drink, P; you get the idea......... I went to the emergency dept on Thursday to get hydrated. They discovered I also had a urinary tract infection, had some white cells in my bloos and my potassium was low. So I went home with nausea meds (2 types) and an antibiotic. I was still no able to keep anything down for the rest of Thursday and not much on Friday- including the antibiotic. So early Sat morning I awaoke with painful kidneys (back pain). I figured I'd give the cipro another try- maybe on an empty stomach it would stay down. IT DID! I'm feeling much better. Saturday AM I had chocolate Unjury- so far so good. Being sick is the pits- I think I'm on the road to recovery.
ALSO..... the scale today says 220.3. I am .3 away from 100 pounds lost. This may not stay as I haven't kept food down. We'll see. I may go up a bit and then down again. But I can't believe the numbers. I'm psyched!
