Journal Entry for June 23, 2007 Mood
Saturday, June 23, 2007

I went to the doctor today.  I don't ever go for just one reason I had several.  The doctor confirmed my worst fear that I had indeed gained weight over the past 3 months.  It was disappointing and so we discussed options.  He actually believed me when I told him that I had only cheated 2ce since he put me on the new diet and am exercising.  He put me back on metformin which I'm not sure how to feel but he told me exactly how he wants me to take it and it is different than I have done in the past.  I really hope this will work it's so frustrating to watch people around me and see in their eyes they think but they don't understand.  I am hopeful about the medication.

Well, I'm still doing the exercising, I have cut out soda and I'm eating healthier.  I gained a pant size over this last few months.  Can I be disappointed?

    Disappointed is a feeling and I don't think expressing a feeling is wrong here, that's what is shared :) I'm sorry that things aren't going so well in the diet department, and the only thing I can think of is medication OR Thyroid problems. Even if you 'test normally' there are many things we don't yet know about the importance of thyroid .. so maybe try a little Armour which is an herb, that regulates thyroid better than most say the pill equivalent does! I hope all is well with you, hugs Kathy

I was actually having a good day. That was until I realized that I had gained more weight. I'm eating less and exercising more and I have to believe this is going to work.
