Sometimes I think its impossible!

I wish I could find a book on how to lose weight with hypothyroidism because I can’t seem to no matter how hard I try to lose the weight I have gained since my thyroid took a crap! The doctors keep telling me to be patient and once my levels do “level” out I will start seeing a difference. But I am tired of feeling tired all the time! I am tired of my husband saying that is just not normal because I am cold all the time. The temperates have dropped to under 60 degrees and I am cold. I am not asking to turn on the furnace, trust me I know that hot weather is coming back soon, but my toes are extremely cold. I noticed my hair is coming out more and more. I don’t ever think they will get my levels straight. So I just get so frustrated because I can not lose the weight and wish there was some magical cure for my condition, but there isn’t. I have not gained any more weight in the past three years, that’s a blessing, but I just wish I could lose it!!

Since the weekend, I have really had some serious heartburn feeling, my stomach has some pain and I just don’t feel so good. Even a banana aggravates my stomach! My hubby quit smoking and snacks a lot and thinks I don’t eat enough. I guess I just wish I could feel “normal” again. I got in in a few months for another ultra sound. I am due for a refill on my medication and I just think why bother, I don’t feel any different on it!!

Busy getting ready

June 17, 2008

Wow I have just been so busy getting things ready for the graduation party that we are having this coming Saturday, I tell you what, that is a lot of work and planning!! Today I went and got our car from hubby at work and piled my two and the girls I watch into the car and off we ran to Walmart. After our trip to Walmart we went to the GFS place for all that fun stuff like chips, pretzels, napkins, plates, plastic ware (folks, spoons and knives), a tray, and a few other things. Then I treated everyone to McDonald’s for lunch. Have you had their Southern Chicken Sandwich? I get mine, of course without pickle (yuck). I really like that sandwich! Then piled everyone back in the car and made it home for the call from my husband. Now I need to sit down and sort out what I have that isn’t “food” and see if there is anything else I need. I need to get into the attic for Sarah storage container with stuff in it as she grew up to put out at her party. I wish I could get in the day before but they won’t allow me.

Thursday evening I have to run and buy two watermelons to cut up for a fruit salad, some cucumbers, carrots, celery and green peppers for a little veggie tray and some dip, and some bacon to cut up and brown with brown sugar for my baked beans. I think that is all I need.

We picked up pudding today because my daughter wants pudding too. So no one could decide on one flavor, so I got butterscotch and milk chocolate!

I am so exhausted and I need to start my roast soon, but I rather take a nap!
