Wednesday

Today is the day Sharky has the consultation with the surgeon. Mr. DW picked him up and drove him there, just in case they do a biopsy. I hope they figure out what this is soon. It's gotten even larger and still pains him. He's having a hard time sleeping at night.

On the good side, it's close to 200 days since he quit smoking and he no longer wakes up in the middle of the night hacking up a lung. He still does have coughing fits once in a while, but they are less severe and seldom, thank goodness.

Sharky told me this morning that it really looks like I've lost a lot of weight. I noticed yesterday, sitting on the couch, that my thighs (of all things LOL) look a lot thinner.

The weight is coming off a lot slower now and it's very difficult to balance calories and carbs with weight loss and my diabetes. Had another low spot yesterday at both lunch and dinner, this time I can't blame it on the ibuprofen (ok, they weren't as low as Sunday, but still on the border) so I don't know what is going on. Guess I'll have to go back to having between-meal snacks. That is so much harder than it sounds because if I lose enough weight and keep it stabilized I can get off insulin, but I cannot keep losing weight if I have to keep eating. LOL Yeah, I know how incredibly stupid it sounds.
