Well aparently where you least expect it... you find light in the mist of bad news. If you read my last post "The Trifecta" you learned that just 2 weeks ago I was diagnosed with high BP, Prediabetes, and elevated Cholesterol.
Since July 5th I have been using myfitnesspal.com to track every calorie I stick in my mouth. There is such a great community on there I encourage everyone now to join and it's free. I've also really re-evaluated how I cook, eat, and live. In making small changes like wheat wraps instead of bread for sandwhiches, Actually eating breakfast EVERY day not just once in a while, taking my meds for high blood pressure, and adding a few esscential supliments to my diet. I have managed to lose 12 lbs in just 2 weeks. This is amazing!
So I am thinking that maybe for years I should have been pushing for the answers I've been desperatly looking for even if they were bad. Because until I know what the issue is I can't do anything that will change my situation.
I look like I'm melting in my clothes that are now too big but I refuse to go shopping until they fall off my butt with out a belt. I will get to where I want to be and maybe just maybe complete my family in the near future... but #1 is me!

Hey Jen! I don't know if you'll see this but I keep trying to comment on your posts but it's not giving me a button to post. Not sure why.
