   Its a big day here for the doggies!! and for me as well.  4:30 this afternoon they’ll both be off to the groomers.  YIPPEE!! I tried to load a “real” pic of them to show you how shaggy they are..LOL!! but no luck.  Need my husbands help I guess!!!

Anyways yesterday was really good.  Food has become less inviting for me.  After eating a diet in the hospital consisting of low salt, low fat, low cholesterol food tends to be tasteless.  The scales went down to 198 but I know the game now. 

I had completely forgotten that with heart failure you MUST weigh everyday because of retention.  Its no wonder on Friday afternoon I was 205 then had the episode.  I had retained sooooooooooo much water.  Eeekkks…so scary.

As much as I don’t want to weigh everyday I will have to.  I’ll measure my weight loss by my clothing and how it fits.

I’m off to my primary care doctor today.  Hopefully she can help me find the proper medication to de-stress so that my blood pressure stays as low as possible.  I’ve avoided the medication route long enough.  Maybe if I was on something Friday would have never happened.  Oh well…it did and now its time to get serious.

In the beginning when I joined BuddySlim I was sooooooooooo motivated and sooooooooooo happy to find supportive buddys.  Today seems to be like the beginning (again) for me.  Its ok…I said it before and I’ll say it again…..GAME ON!!! Cmon buddys, we ALL CAN DO IT!!
