3/30/01 -- About Me Ok, I know it's not really April yet, but this way I won't have only one (or two) entries on my first page.
Well, here's a little about me. I am 24 and will celebrate my one year anniversary in April. I was diagnosed with PCOS sometime before July 2000. I know it sounds weird. It's just that July is the first time my doctor casually mentioned "PCO" as if we'd been discussing it for months.
I'm presently waiting for my fasting insulin test to come back. If I'm IR, I'll start metformin. If not, I will start clomid (most likely) when Lee (dh) and I decide to "officially" start trying to conceive (ttc).
Well, that's enough about me for today. I'm really going to try to actually use this site. In all seriusness, if you'd sign my guestbook, I'd really appreciate it. It would tell me that others are reading this so I better get my butt moving.
Thanks.
Oh, I almost forgot. I'm presently at 212 lbs. My goal is 135 (I'm 5'4" and the least I can remember weighing in highschool was 165). 4/2/01 Over the weekend... Well, this weekend was a mixture of good and bad. A good time with bad eating!!! ARGH!! I wish I could just really "want" to eat better. I mean, I do want to, but apparently I don't want to enough, since I'm not.
Saturday morning I went to a charity pancake breakfast. Ok, I was prepared for that. I knew what it would be and was planning to eat anyway, so I wasn't too upset. I only had two pancakes with no syrup (I use butter and sugar so I used splenda. Pretty good.) and two pieces of sausage. Lee and I skipped lunch since we were going out for dinner with my family. My uncle and aunt and three cousins were in from out-of-state (last visit was July 99). It was great getting to see them. Their third son was only born in August, so we all got to meet him for the first time. I love watching her with her boys. She has PCO (not the syndrome) so she had difficulty conceiving. She's such a wonderful mother and when I watch her I only think of how worthy she is of her children. I only pray that someday I can be the same.
Well, Lee and I are remodeling our new home. We're ripping our horse-hair plaster and putting up dry wall in the living room. Oh, so much fun!! All I need to do is be sure I stick with what I should diet-wise while all that's going on. *That's* the trick!
