We got great news yesterday. As the testing with Stevie continued, the doc ordered an EGD. This showed the source of his chest pain....ulcers! So 2 new medicines and we are off and running! We are so happy than his problem was not his heart.....however this does not change the fact that it is TIME to make some drastic life style changes.
We have not begun any exercise routine, but plan to start walking TODAY! It's been so long, I probably won't make it far....but every step counts! I will see if I can drag Stevie along with me....this part of life style change he is not too excited about.
The scale has had some surprises for me....I am currently down 9lbs since Monday! I really did not believe it when I saw 8lbs down yesterday and expected it to go back up today.....but it was down another pound. I am certain this is simply water weight and things are going to slow down A LOT over the next week. But hey......9 lbs is 9 lbs!!! I'll take it! Stevie's scale is steadily dropping as well.....we are headed in the right direction!
So 2 cups of coffee and one peach, soy milk and greek yogurt smoothie...and a few Advil..... and I am ready to face the day :)
