11/11/11!
It's an LMFAO kind of day! I'd LOVE to be shufflin' through weight loss but instead I'm STRUGGLIN'. Weigh in did not go well today. I gained back 2lbs. UGH. This seriously is a big disappointment. Dr, Cusimano encouraged me to not get upset, but it's hard not to. I got my lovely period this week, she said that a lot of her patients gain weight from it. She assured me that by next week I'll be fine. I hope so, it's just hard to swallow.
I'm still having trouble with the iron fiasco. I'm not supposed to take Miralax for an extended amount of time. If you grow dependent on products like this, it can actually change your BM patterns. It's only meant to be used for 1 week at most. She perscribed me Colace, which is actually available OTC. At Walgreens they gave me Sennsa instead, which is the same thing. It contains castor oil. I have to take 1 at bed time for a while. If this problem persists, she said that she wants me to go see a GI specialist. UGH. I know exactly where that's going, scope. Personally I don't think I need to go, I'm 25 years old and have no other problems besides being overweight and constipated from iron supplements.
Next Friday I have another appointment, and the week after before Thanksgiving I see Dr. Cusimano. Let's hope she doesn't send me off during Thanksgiving holiday to get scoped! I'm setting a definite target weight to drop by next appointment. Going to try to lose 5lbs. I know it's possible, because I did it the first week!
